being too close to the YCL." In his
statement announcing his decision to
Join the Young Communist League,
Chase says, Actually, I was expelled
for the following reason: I was active
in seeing that most of the Yipsels took
part in an Anti-Fascist demonstration
sponsored by Zionists, liberals, and
Communists. This united front wss
very successful and enthuSed most Of
the members to the point where they
were anxious for more united action.
THE sentiment in the YSPL for
participation in National Youth Day
was SO great that the Cleveland or
ganization voted to override the deci-
sion Of the NEG prohibiting participa-
ton. The Yipsels here finally broke
the false discipline used by the S.P. to
keep the young workers asleep, and
caused such a turmoil at headquarters
that member Of the MEG, Hy Fish,
was dispatched to Cleveland with in
structions to sabotage the united front
NYD at all costs. BY craftily bringing
forth six points, one Of which was the
denial of the right to sell literature,
point obviously impossible Of ac-
ceptance. The YPSL was forced to
withdraw over the protests Of the rank
and file.
when under the MA the workers
saw the necessity OF organizing to
combat the raids of the bosses on
their incomes, the sP sought to push
these workers into corrupt and re-
dictionary AFL unions. I was among
those who objected to this policy and
demanded that the party organize mi
litant industrial unions. For advocat-
ing revolutionary unions I was sus-
pended for month"
Shortly after this militant young
worker attended the u. S. Congress
Against War, he was expelled, and
now announces his decision to join
the Young Communist League.
Expel Another Worker
Morris Jaffe, another active socialist
was expelled because he supported the
United Front candidate for Mayor,
l. o. Ford, in the recent election.
Harold Katz, one OF the best known
Cleveland Yipsels, left the YPSL and
issued statement, saying in part,
II quit the Young Peoples Socialist
League, of which 1 had been men,
Der for over two years because I was
openly disguised with the reactionary
betraying leadership Of the Socialist
Party and the YPSL."
The expulsion of the Chicago Zip
sells and OF Smerkin and Larks showed
me that the SP and YPSL were expel-
ling all elements that demanded a
real revolutionary program Of action
leading the working class in united
struggles against their class enemies,
capitalism and Fascism.
The Socialist Party Of America was
following exactly the same lines as the
German Social Democracy In betray-
ing the workers. Claiming TO be rev
olutionsry organization whose goal
was the overthrowing Of the capitalist
system, the American party, like its
German brother, was putting its hope
in the use of bourgeois democracy and
the reactionary ALL, to attain so
cialism.
"On the other hand wave Of eX-
pulsion in the SP and YPSL went on
against all left wing elements that
demanded a realistic and revolution
airy policy OF struggle and united front
against war and fascism."
Shortly after quit the Yipsels I
joined the Young Communist League
because I realized that the League
was q devoted, sincere organization
that was carrying on mass struggles
of the workers and leading the fight to
mobilize the masses &c the workers
against their class enemies, the bosses
The Communist Party and the Young
Communist League not only in Russia
and America, but turnout the entire
world, was leading the fight against
! capitalism and for international So
