struggle. 1t was a bait, which the
Socialist leaders withdrew in favor
OF the present boss "unemploy-
ment insurance bills, which mean
starvation insurance, if and when
the workers receive it.
What is the motive behind the
position of the Socialist Party
leaders? This they state: Co
operation between the Socialist
Party and the unions should be
effected in behalf of the principle
back of these bills" Two points
stand out in this statement: l.
Some time ago the National Com
Dlittee of the Socialist Party called
Tor this cooperation. They did not
mean cooperation with the rank
and file of the trade unions, but
with the burocrats. How could
Dubinsky, Beardsley, Hillman, Ear
ltSky, speak about the rank and
1lle, whom they sell out day after
day? Are they not the same re-
dictionaries as Green and Vol, US
ing demagogic phrases to meet the
situation in their unions? No, the
Socialist leaders meant coopera-
ton with Green Vol, Morrison,
Hutchinson and the rest of the re-
dictionary leaders.
2. The principle back of these
bills" is the principle of the bosses,
who are determined that the care
OF the unemployed is the task not
OF the capitalists and their gov
eminent, but of the workers still
having jobs. If the workers must
starYe, it is none of their con-
Germ. The principle" is j. P.
MorganS' and Norman Thomas
block aid scheme, which was de
mocratizing relief-take it out OF
the workers." The principle" is
self-help schemes, promoted by
the Socialist Party and Karl Bor-
ders through the Workers Commit
tees for Unemployment, to relieve
the bosses and the government of
providing for the unemployed, and
proposing gradual starvation for
the workers. The principle" means
complete sell out of the uneN-
plOyed and employed.
in these treacherous activities and
in further betraying the workers,
the Socialist Party leaders have
further allies: The General De-
Tense Committee QW.W.) and the
Civil Liberties Union are assisting
the Socialist Party unemployment
chief, Borders, in devising ma
tional sell-out organization.
How long will the rank and file
OF the Socialist Party tolerate such
treachery? How long will the I'M
employed under the influence of
the Socialist Party permit such
counter -reVolutionary action?
Your task, workers, i'll these days
OF wage SlasheS and starvation for
the workers, with war staring us
in the eyes; when social demo-
cratic leaders in Germany openly
support the fascist regime; when
Spanish leaders shoot down the
revolving workers and peasants,
when Japanese social democrats
openly support the imperialist at
tack on China-your task is to
dump overheard the party which is
betraying you, that supports bosses
schemes in consort with the errand
boys of the boss class, the leaders
of the A. F. of l.. Now is the time
when the most critical questions
confront the working class. Unity
in the unemployed movement, in
the shops, in the struggle against
war, is needed. This can be
achieved only under the leadership
Of that party which is unifying the
working class-the Communist
Party.
Achieve this unity over the heads
of your leaders. March is COM
ing. This is the day when the
workers of this country will re-
mind Roosevelt of the forgotten
man. On this day the Unem-
ployed Councils are calling a Ma
tional Day of Struggle for Unem-
ployment and Social Insurance.
The Socialist Party--true to it's
missions trying to defeat the
unity of the working class. Dis
unity is in favor of the capitalists.
Defeat this move OF the Socialist
Party and join with the rest of the
workers in one unified struggle Of
the workers, employed and unem-
plcyed, in the demand for Unem-
ployment and Social Insurance
