4 capitalize on the opposition that is
growing to the Roosevelt NR.A program.
This opposition comes from two
sources, from the working class who have
been robbed and plundered by it, and from sec
tions Of the capitalist employers who find that
part Of the elaborate legal structure Of the NR.A
hampers them in the unleashng Of the naked
brutal drive which they need for the mainte-
of their monopoly profits
Not that the N.R.A. hasn't given these capitalist
industrial monopolsts the latest profits they have
reaped since 1929 But they are now pressing on
the Roosevelt government for more speed more
ruthlessness in the governments measures to beat
down wages and working standards in the factories
They feel that it is now necessary to substitute
for RooseveltS New Deal" demagogy new kind of
demagogy that would more directly and consciously
accelerate the Roosevelt development toward Fas-
csm The industrial monoposts of the Manufac-
tlrers Association and the National Chamber of
Commerce, having frightened their monopoly grip
on industry through the NRA. Codes are now
eager to press forward to further monopolizaton
OF industry without any further delay. Having
strengthened their position through Roosevelt's
Wall Street program. they now wish to make fur
ther gains by pressing for certain alterations in
that program.
HERE is where the Republican Party comes in
- Acting as one of the wings of the capitalist
party rule as Of the sections of the Wall Street
dictatorship it attempts to utilize the pressure of
the biggest industrial monopolists for alterations
in the NRA which would speed up the whole fss-
citation process for its own special party purposes
At the same time, however it is also striving
to place itself at the head Of the opposition to the
MIRA. that is ripening among the masses. 1t is
striving for its party purposes to pretend that it's
opposition to the N.RA. is the same as the mass
opposition
The opposition of the masses Is directed against
the intense exploitation and wage cutting of the
N.R.Ar against the super-profts which the monopo-
lists wiring out of the hides of the workers. The
opposition Of the Republican Party is directed
toward increasing the profits of the monopolists
through an even intenser exploitation through the
MIRA, codes! This must be made clear to the
masses in the fight against the Republican cam
paign
And no doubt, the Democratic Party will pre-
tend that the Republican Party opposition proves
the social-progressve character of the Democrats!
Actually, they both faithful wings OF the capt.
tast rule
THE mass faith in N.R.A. is breaking down The
mass resentment against the slave codes must
be organized and welded into the political struggle
against Wall Street dictatorship whether at one
moment headed by Republican or Democrat.
Right now we must get ready to stop the usual
trick of the American ruling class which it always
puts over with it's two-party system-dangling the
other before the masses when the one in power
is too fully exposed a capitalist tool.
American capitalism is now grooming the Repub-
lican Party for this time-honore historic trickery
if it's Democratic servant becomes too compromised
in the eyes of the masses
The working class can fight the attacks of the
capitalist employers only by relying on its own
class Party the Communist Party against all other
capitalist parties. No matter what servant it is of
the Wall Street dictatorship who is in office the
drive on the living standards of the masses will
go forward.
Glass against class, the Wall Street parties
against the working class Party-that is the only
line that can be drawn by the working class in its
fight against starvation and exploitation.
