movement" Stitt Wilson, Job Harri-
man, Gaylord Wiltshire and Cameron
King were leading Socialist figures.
Wiltshire and Hartman were wealthy
and King was intrenched in the city
government as q civil service ap-
pointee. Together this group were
cross section of the middle-class ele-
ments which controlled the Socialist
movement. Between this group and
the left wing, consisting of trade
unionists and other working class ele-
ments, there Was constant warfare.
First, in 1912 there was the ques-
ton of direct action. Later there were
local issues, and in 1915, there was
open and violent division over the ar
rest of Tom Mooney in the Prepared
ness Parade frame-up.
Mooney was about to be expelled
for his left wing tendencies at the
time. After he was arrested, Lillian
Bishop Shines, local secretary, and the
right wing leadership urged the San
Francisco Socialist locals to disown
Mooney. Even if he's innocent, which
is doubtful" declared Lillian Shines,
I'VE ought to take no part in his de-
Tense. 1t will endanger our organ
ization."
Bedacht and the left wingers
fought this betrayal by organiz-
ing defense committee and in this
connection Bedacht met Robert Minor
when the latter came to San Fran

organization with whatever other
groups they could find, radical stu
dents, Irish nationalists, Anarchists"
Bedacht himself had become known
to Frisco during 1915 and 1916 as a
bitter enemy of imperialist war and
he found himself In demand for lee
lures before pacifist and radical or
CARNATIONS.
AS result, Bedacht frequently
found himself without job when he
reported for work on mornings fol-
lowing his public appearance as an
anti-war agitator.
In 1919 the conflicts within the
Socialist Party had reached a climax
and with it Max Bedachts reyolu-
tionary activity reached turning
point. He travelled from San Fran
cisco to Chicago on a speaking tour
for the German Socialist Federation,
with a delegates mandate to attend
the Socialist Party convention In
Chicago. He was refused seat, as
were all other left wing delegates.
These delegates then held their own
conference, which resulted in the
formation of the Communist Party.
On his return to California he was
arrested for criminal syndicalism to-
gether with Anita Whitney and 9TH
ers, but was extradited to Chicago
on a charge of conspiracy to over
throw the government.
Bedacht never served, however, be-

cause of a legal technicality. Since
that time, 1920, Bedacht's record has
been one Of constant and unremitting
activity in responsible positions in
the Communist Party. For several
years he was national director Of
agitation and propaganda. In 1923
and 1924 he was a member of the
American delegation to the World
Congress Of the Communist Inter
national, where he acted as trans
lator for Lenin at many sessions.
Since July, 1923, he had been eXecu-
tive secretary Of the International
Workers Order, a position which is
filled by election in the national ex-
ecutive committee of the organiza-
ton.
Bedacht, for all his sober theoreti-
cal writing on current questions and
his unrelenting energy in organiza-
tional work, is not the impersonal,
cold-blooded zealot who is held by
muddled liberal observers to be the
prototype of revolutionary leaders.
When he does find few moments
free from work, his chief concerns
are his unfulfilled ambitions of his
youth to be a printer and gymnast,
and his family. He has three chill
dren. Elsie, the eldest, works in the
National Office of the Communist
Party. Edith and Ethel are looking
for jobs" he will tell you with the
wistful expression which has become
common to the parents of adolescents
since the depression. Max, the young
est is still in school. But all of them
are active in the Young Communist
League" he will tell you. And he
smiles, because that's something to
be really proud of even though you
have 80 years of revolutionary activity
to your own credit.
Comrade Bedacht's activity in the
Communist Party of the United
States will be dealt with in a future
article, to appear on this page.

Not only is the penny pamphlet,
What Is Fusion?" an excellent source
of material for speakers, but the new
little booklet by the Daily Workers
special writer on city politics, James
Casey, is also one Of the most read
able that can be handed to a worker.
We cannot help quoting the clear
introduction which is found in the
first two paragraphs Of the pamph-
let:
1.-THE money-Iords of Wall Street
are preparing, if necessary, to dis
guise their rule over New York City
under a new political label.
THE Tammany machine, long 4
faithful servant of the bankers, has
gained for itself a reputation more
loathsome than any 1t has borne
since its founding. So the bankers
and industrialists have slapped to-
gether Fusion ticket. They are
offering to the millions of voters n
choice between an administration
of exposed grafters and a gang OF
Wall Street tools whose varied anti
working class activities have not
yet been publicly revealed"
Casey traces the history Of Fusion
from its prenatal stage in the capt.
talist leaders Citizens Committee
of One Thousand" to the present day
of Fusion Manager Chadbourne and
Mayoralty Candidate LaGuardia.
Names, figures and facts are men,
toned in manner which proves con-
clusiyely that the arms of Morgan
and Mellon are around the shoulder
of their champion LaGuardia. Rookie
Teller also has not neglected the Fu-
sion camp
ITO build their war chest" says
Casey, the City Fusion Party lead
ers have the assistance of a financier
who has raised more money in DO
litical campaigns than probably any
living man in America. This man is
Colonel Henry r. Winthrop. He is a
director of the Chase National Bank,
a Rockefeller institution"
LaGuardia's record of fighting
against pay rises for workers, his bat
tie for a war program, his Socialist
and Tammany affiliations nail him
as the clever opportunist, servant of
finance capital and dangerous enemy
of the working class.
This pamphlet should be spread
among the masses Of New York. Hav-
ing read it, a worker will think twicea
before voting for Fusion and will
find assistance In making his deci-
sion in the last few pages of the
pamphlet which contain the Com
munist Party program.
The pamphlet, as depicted by
splendid cartoon on the front cover,
rips the haloed mask off Fusion.
