Concluding ArticIe)

THIS week the dyers of Paterson
L will elect the officers of their
union. The rank and file of the
union are therefore confronted with
test which will prove as serious
as the role played by them during
the strike The task now is to in
sure the victory by placing the
leadership OF the union in the
hands OF the very workers who
proved themselves as the most mill
tant. and devoted during the strike.
However, If this is to be accom-
plished, the Communists and the
other militants must overcome
weaknesses which were apparent
especially during the strike.
Most important of all, it should
be recognized that especially in the
early stages of the strike, the rank
and file group was very narrow.
The Dyers Club was confined to a
handful Of workers. This was not
because there was only a handful
who were willing to follow its policy.
1t was mainly because the Dyers
Club hesitated to place confidence
in many active and devoted work.
ers in the local. 1t was isolated from
most Of those who, as the strike
showed, proved themselves the
finest militants. 1t was only during
later stages of the strike that the
militants made bolder advance

all committees, and worked tire
lessly for success, so in the everv-
day life of the union the militants
will maintain leadership IL they are
In the forefront to fight for every
grievance, no matter how small it
may be. Some workers make the
serious mistake in thinking that
differences with reactionary off
Gals are expressed only during
strikes. 1t should not be forgotten
that there is grievance commit
tee composed of equal representa-
ton from the bosses and workers
and an impartial chairman. The
policy of Anthony Ammirato, now
president of the Paterson local, is
to place all confidence in the COM
mittee and in chickering's within the
framework of the N. R. A. The
policy of the militants is to pri-
marily depend upon the organized
power of the workers in the shop
to back the workers representatives
on such committees. 1t is a deter
mined attitude of the workers that
decides far more than arguments in
a committee. All such committees
are meant to be instruments in
the hands of the bosses, and are no

cere elements in the union: 1t was
soon found that active rank and file
leaders on the settlement committee
and shop chairmen and delegates,
were able to win the majority in
both against the reactionary higher
officials.
Broaden Base
BY making the workers realize
that the rank and file elements and
the Communists are not some out
side group" but those in the union
who are most devoted and could
be depended, upon to serve in the
interest Of the workers, the Rank
and File Group in the union has
thereby laid foundation for itself
among the most active workers,
especially the shop chairmen and
delegates. The fact that its policy
proved a key to the success of the
strike, now presents a splendid OPP
portunity for organizing the entire
leadership of the union on the basis
of rank and file control.
This control must be expressed
in hundreds Of workers being in
volved in leading activity in the
day-to-day life of the union. 1t
means instilling consciousness of
this in the minds of from two to
three hundred shop chairmen and
delegates of the Paterson shops. in
members Of the local executive
board. Of those on all committees.
and particularly in the members of
all shop committees. 1t shsuld be

many workers are sympathetic to
the Communist Party, and would
Join it. Unfortunately, however.
the narrowness which characterized
the rank and file group within the
union is only because the Commu-
nists within we're too hesitant in
approaching workers. The Commu-
mist Party in Paterson should lose
no time in taking advantage Of the
wonderful opportunity before it as
a result of its work among this
largest section of the Paterson
workers. The lessons to be drawn
from the strike must be put very
simply and made the basis for rapid
recruiting-so rapid that within a
few weeks the majority of the men,
bership in Paterson will be of
dyers.
The larger the number of Commu-
nists, the more the Party is rooted
in the dye plants, the more will the
workers be guaranteed that the
policy of rank and file control will
be carried out. The Communist
Party trains its members to expose
every trick of the bosses or their
agents in the union; to unmask
such as the renegade Rubenstein,
who are especially dangerous, as
they parade as progressives; to in
still spirit of discipline and mill
fancy in the daily life of the union
and to be among the most active to
build a powerful organization.

made clear to all workers that only
if such large number are ac-
tivized as leaders, will they be able
to preserve their gains.
Immediately upon return to
work, the workers began to see that
although the strike is over, the
struggle only changes form. They
find that unless there is con-
tinual threat of united action of the
workers, the boss looks upon an
agreement as mere scrap of paper.
The shop chairmen and delegates
already had to decide that unless
Anthony Ventura. one of the menu
bers of the settlement committee,
is yeinstated in the shop where he
worked, within two days, strike
will be called in the shop. The
clause in the contract that vacancies
left by union workers must be filled
by union members is meaningless
unless shop committee is alive
and enforces it.
SUCH points in the contract as:
no discrimination, equal pay for
equal work, equal distribution of
work, no additional help hired un-
less those working in the depart
ment work 80 per cent of their
work time, no discharge without
cause, two hours minimum pay if
called to work, sanitary conditions.
and many others. are good only If
there are live wires in every shop to
see that they do not remain on
paper. And this is where the role

more impartial than the average
arbitration board.
But whether the union will con-
tinue along the path that will make
for a rank and file controlled or
ganiZation, or whether it will be
what German, MacMahon and AM
nitrate would like it to be-a bu-
reaucracy-wil largely depend upon
the outcome of the elections in the
union next, week. The strike has
advanced large number of new
leaders-workers who have been
tried in the struggle. The strike
has likewise shown which of the
officials have proven themselves
worthy of further support. But the
strike has also exposed such Off
Gals as Ammirato, as are reaction
airy to the core. These must be de-
feated at all costs if the gains that
were won are to be preserved.
The workers should elect officials
such as will take a lead in &C
tivizing a large force in the union
apparatus, and base themselves on
this rank and file control.
Party Must Grow
Another serious weakness in the
union is that the number of Com
munist Party members in it is far
too small for the big task that faces
them. Yet experience in the strike,
especially the way the attempted
red scare was defeated, showed that

police, who denied them admittance
and started to club those in the
front. During the police attack, st.
Clair, one of the Negro workers, was
knocked to the ground by ten
police, who stood over his body and
beat him without mercy. When

Women Urgedto Back Fight
To Save Saor Region From
Hands Of Hitler Fascists

If the Saar becomes part of Ger
many, the anti-fascist women will
see their husbands taken to concen-
tration camps, shot while trying to
escape" They themselves will be
treated to the Nazi dictum of star
walton for snti-fascists, so that Cas
a leading Nazi states) this breed
shall be weeded out"
We must defend our sisters in the
Saar. We must facilitate the work
of the anti-fascists in the Saar, who
fearlessly, despite Nazi terror and
persecution, go from village to viii
1age, town to town, campaigning
zealously against Hitler, for status
quo"
We pledge that we will by prac-
tical means, to the best of our abil-
ity, assist that fight, provide shoes
for the feet of the Status quo"
campaigners, clothes for their
backs. We consider that sending
clothes and food to the wives and
children of the anti-fascists is a
duty.
To Raise Fund
Above all, we pledge that we will
assist the anti-fascists of the Saar
by raising funds for their anti-fas-
cist press, for leaflets. for their
speakers, so that they can reach
every township Of the Saar. calling
the workers to vote against Hitler.
All women's organizations should
collect timed goods to send to the
Saar, clean clothing, in good con-
dition. Each organization should sell
at least one book of certificates, the
total amount of which is three dol
lars. These can be ordered from the
National Committee to Aid Victims
of German Fascism, 870 Broadway,
New York, N. Y.
The fight of the anti-fascists of
the Saar is our fight. We under
stand that a victory for Hitler now
will be used as a blow aimed against
the workers of the entire world.
We women give word of our soil
darity. We stand staunchly behind
the fight for the status quo" of
the Saar.
