Socialist Executive Postp0nes
Action on United Front

NOR, Ten Years of the Comintern)
The main object of this tactic
(the United 'front.' is the exposure
Of the treacherous leaders and the
liberation of the toiliog masses
from their influence Zinovieff at
the Fifth Congress, said, We per-
ceive these tactics as strategical
maneuvers.' Your official organ The
Communist for April, 1888, says
Does the Communist International
manifesto mean a change in the
basic line of the Comintern in re-
gard to the united front? OF course
not. These tactics, while chang
ing in form, do not in any way
change the principal content of the
tactics of the united 'front.'
THE official bulletin Of the
Young Communist League for
March-April, 1893, speaks of the
Young Peoples Socialist League as
the most dangerous enemy in the
ranks of the working youth.
I'm its editorial of Aug. /, 1898,
your official organ, The Daily
Worker said, On the eve Of a new
imperialist war, the Socialist Party
is doing all it can to help the bosses
by drumming up a chauvinistic
spirit behind the Roosevelt slave
and war program And on March
80, 1882, The role of the Socialist
Party is to assist Fascism in plac-
ing its iron ring around the necks
of the workers.
"All of these quotations are based
upon the theory of :Social-Fas-
cism,' which, as any reader of your
newspapers can understand, is still
accepted by the Communist Party
of the United States.
Postpone Decision
I'm view Of these facts, we believe
that the ultimate success of a
united action movement will best
be served if we postpone considera-
ton Of further negotiations be-
tween our two parties until our
next meeting about Dec. /, by
which time we shall have had OPP
portunities to observe the decisions
of the Communist International
Congress and the success or failure
of the French agreement. We shall
also have had time to get the ad-
vice of the Labor and Socialist In
ternational to which we are writ
ing, urging that body again to re-
new its attempt to find an honor
able basis for a reasonable agrees
ment.
Meanwhile we are aware that
there are questions arising from
time to time, mostly in the field Of
civil liberties, in which it is de-
sirable that there shall be effective
local action for the defense Of
workers rights. We are, therefore,
drawing up a plan to govern pos
sible cooperation in this field. The
success or failure of this kind CT
cooperation will do much to DC
termine the nature Of the action
which we shall take at our next
quarterly meeting.

4.-That the two parties use their
influence, within the limits Of dis
cipline towards their respective in
ternationalS, to smooth the way in
every country for policy of joint
action.
5.-The two parties reserve their
full and entire autonomy Of func-
ton and theory. Each one of them
is to continue its own specific prop
uganda and activities, availing them
selves Of the incontestable right to
express themselves with complete
franknesS on the differences Of
theory and tactics which prevent as
yet the establishment of a general
political front and organizational
fusion, and to do it in such a way
as not to hurt or impede the de-
velopment Of common actions al
ready agreed upon,
6.-The two parties reserve the

would not permit a general
political unity and still less
organizational fusion. How
ever, these differences do not
negate the existence Of common in
terest of the two parties on precise,
concrete, and actual points of the
class struggle against fascism and
war.
Following, therefore, the need for
developing, to the greatest extent,
the strength and the concentration
Of the masses to whom the two par
ties address themselves and to Sc
cure for the proletariat the best
interpreter of the general interests
Of society, the political guidance OF
the struggle, the two parties e5tab-
lish a pact of accord with the fol-
lowing detectives in view:
al Against Intervention in Aus
tria and against the menace Of
war, which springs from the an
tagOnisms of imperialist interests
and as a result of the fascist pol
icies of provoking war. The direc-
tives for this work have been
outlined in the joint manifesto of
July 81, which should serve as a
basis for local actions of sections,
groups and militants of both par
ties.
b. To wrest from the prisons
and exile islands the victims Of
the Special Tribunal and repres-
sion and to force complete and
unconditional amnesty; for the
active participation in the inter
national campaign for the liberia
ticn of Thaelmann, Seitz and all
other victims of fascisn.
q For the defense and the bet
terment of the living standards Of
the workers; against all reduc-
tions of wages and salaries; for
relief to all unemployed, against
foreclosures, fer the annuIment of
debts and taxes of the poor peas
ants, for all immediate demands
of the toiling masses.
d. Against the system of the
corporate state, for trade union
freedom, for representation of
workers in enterprises, for the
freedom of the press, and the
right to strike and organize, for
free elections to all trade union
offices, for the establishment of
all civil rights Of the masses.
2.-The two parties, bearing II
mind the local possibilities, under.
take to give the necessary instruc.
tons to their respective lower or.
CARNATIONS, groups, and all mill
tants, to promote and coordinate ir
the forms most adapted to particu-
lar situations, joint actions with the
objectives as fixed in the pact.
3.-The two parties undertake tt
give instruction to their respective
organizations in countries where
there are Italian immigrants tt
unite their forces in actions Of sup.
port to the struggles of the prole-
tariat of Italy and against the pene.
tration of fascism among the masse.

NEW Notwithstanding
the letter of the National Ex-
ecutive Committee of the So
clalist Party, postponing con-
slderatiOn of the united front
proposals of the C. P. until the
December meeting of the S. P.
executive, the Central Committee of
the Communist Party warns of the
Danger Of delay in the formation of
the united front. The letter, signed
by Earl Browder, executive secre-
tary Of the Communist Party.

tween Socialists and Communists

FeopEas Socialists League to CO.
operate in the American Youth
Congress, and points out that
despite our disappointment, we are
by no means prepared to slacken
our efforts to achieve united &C
ticn."
The letter of the Communist
Party follows:
We are in receipt of your letter
OF September 9th, which came to
cur hands on September 9th. While
we had previously become familiar
with its contents through the daily
press, We refrained from officially
acting on these reports until they
were confirmed by the arrival Of
your letter.
We must express our deep re-
greet that the general effect of your
decision regarding our proposals for
united action is negative, especially
now in the textile strike. The
negative character holds despite
your expressed realization of "the
immense value to the labor move
ment Of united action" We be-
lieve these good words must be
translated into deeds.
VIII Continue Unity Efforts
Despite our disappointment, we
are by no means prepared to
slacken our efforts to achieve united
action. Our hopes in this respect
are being supported by growing
tendencies for united action, shown
outstandingly in the American
Youth Congress in which the
Young Peoples Socialist League and
the Young Communist League
consummated a united front, and
in various localities throughout the
United States. We look upon these
developing actions between lower
organizations of the two parties as
providing good foundation for
future united actions on large
scalc.
In the Milwaukee newspapers we
read that your committee decided
to send delegation of observers to
the Second United States Con-
greSs Against War and Fascism in
Chicago, September 23th 30th.
While we had expected more de-
clsive participation in this great
movement on your part, not mere
observation, we can now only ex-
press our sincere desire that the
results of the observing delegation
will be to contribute to more de-
cislve action after the Congress
and strengthen the participation of
your local organizations in the local
committees of the League. Now on
the eve Of the new world war is no
time to limit ourselves to observa-
tic-~.
c. the Trade Union Question
IN our judgment the central
point of your letter is contained in
the following sentence.

full right to develop recruiting. The
two parties in the course Of joint
action agree to abstain from all in
terYention inside the other party to
disorganize the organization or to
break its discipline.
THE delegations of the two
parties shall keep in contact with
each other and shall be convened at
the request Of either one of the
two in order to examine and con-
cretize proposals for the realization
Of the present agreement and to
solve, in the spirit Of the agreement,
any point of difference which may
arise.
