Party Life
Unit Proposes United
Front On ScottsborO
To Socialist Youth

NEW YORk-In connection with
the united front drive to free the
Scottsboro boys, Comrades - and
- we're assigned to visit Circle Of
the Young Peoples Socialist League,
which meets in the territory Of Unit
IL.
On the night this circle met. the
two comrades entered the meeting
room and asked the chairman to be
allowed to speak for few minutes on
the question of Scottsboro. This, the
chairman refused to do, but the mem
bership insisted very emphatically
that they wanted to hear what the
visitors had to say and the chairman
was compelled to yield Comrade
- began to address the meeting.
He pointed out the class character
of the Scottsboro case and the lynch
verdict in the Haywood Patterson
trial. He further indicated that only
through the united action Of the
working class could the Scottsboro
boys win their unconditional freedom.
At this point the organizer of the
YPSL. circle interrupted Comrade
IS remarks and insisted that the
united front question be postponed
until the educational feature OF the
meeting would be over. The educa-
tional period began with socialist
lecturer as the dominant figure. 1t
is very significant to note that during
the question and discussion period
following the lecture many Of the
YPSL. membership took the floor
and by their statements showed that
they doubted the soundness of the
theoretical and organizational policies
Of the Socialist Party leadership.
When the educational feature was
finally disposed with, the united
front question was again resumed.
Then Comrade - took the floor
and proposed that Circle of the
YPSL elect two delegates to repre-
sent them at the next United Action
Conference. She showed the necessity
for the immediate election of such
delegates and she also read off list
of organizations which had already
sent committees to the initial con-
ference. One of the members moved
that the circle open nominations for

der by the chairman who stated that
it was impossible to entertain such a
motion since that circle had already
gotten orders from the city central
committee Of the S. P. not to go into
a united front on Scottsboro The
rank and file voiced its displeasure
and disapproval Of such orders and
when one Of their members made q
motion to notify their central COM
mittee that Circle of the YPSL was
in favor of a united front. It was
passed by the majority of the mem
bership.
This meeting shows clearly that the
rank and file of the Socialist Party
are becoming more and more militant
and are also eager to enter into united
front campaigns, only to be held back
by the leaders Of the Socialist Party.

it if they could have the chance
In line with the proposal of
the Central Committee, the
Organizational Department. of Dis
trict 2 proposes the following steps
to build the Daily Worker, pledging
itself to get 5000 new readers. The
following are its proposals for reach
ing our quota:
l. To make the members of the
Communist Party and of mass or
carnations realize that the Daily
Worker is not campaign in itself,
or an organization in itself, but that
it is part of every struggle carried
on by the working class-strikes in
the shops, rent strikes, house-to-
house canvassing, recruiting of all
kinds This understanding of the
role of the Daily Worker is to be
fostered through discussions and
lectures in branches Of all mass Or
CARNATIONS, trade unions, block COM
mittees, etc. If we can once and
for all get workers to realize that the
Daily Worker is to be used as an
organizer to build the Party, we will
go a long way toward laying the
foundation for the building of an Or
ganizational apparatus.
2. That the concentration of the
campaign be not only on the carrier
routes. but also on newsstands.
3. Units to pick certain territory
or group of houses, canvass and re-
canvass for readers of the Daily
Worker, on the basis of the eighteen
cent weekly subscription Qater these
readers to be re-canvassed for menu
bership in organizations). These sub
scriptions to be given to the route
carriers. The route carriers will re-
port back to the unit every two

The Veterans National Liaison

members of the Legion which is re-
printed here:

How long are you going to put up
with the false front of your National
Commander, l.. G.. Johnson?
what effort is he making to full
I'll the pledges and promises that the
rank and file Of the Legion adopted
at the last National Convention?
why is he hiding behind an Gin
ternational smoke-screen" and not
obeying the edict of the men who
placed him in the exalted position he
now holds?
why is he pussyfooting with the
new administration and asking you
to stand behind the New Deal that
has already made you and your bud
dies the scape-goat of big business?
THE answer is obvious. He Is a
traitor to the veterans. He is tool"
for the smart money in Wall Street
This is the answer to an migrate
full renegade that is asking us to
stand behind program that spells
ruin and damnation not only for the
veterans but the nation as well

asks you to adopt and support pro-
gram as follows:
Immediate payment Of adjusted

Roosevelt'S economy slash will take
away what little compensation they
have been getting. 1t is no exaggera-
ton to say that Roosevelt in thus

Colorado Springs, Colo.
Dear Comrade
AS a member of the LID, I thought
it my place to write you to inform
you of dance that was given by
the Labor Council which discrim-
mated against the Negro. Now they
say it was given by outsiders. 1 think
if it was given by outsiders they
should not use our leaflets and our
committees.
We were just about to get num-
Der of Negroes in the organization
after the May Day mass meeting,
but the dance was a bomb to the or
ganization. The organization put out
the leaflets and stood all expense and
had a members car with signs on
it, SO you can see it was not outsiders.
Many Negroes went to the dance
and we're turned away and they had
sign up (for white people only.
Now I think you should give a
write-up on this. You know our or
ganizer is in jail and the organiza-
ton taking advantage Of him. Our
is Comrade Festy, a Won
derful man. Now please give a write
up in the Daily Worker about this.
