Masses in Fight for

Former National Organizer and
National Industrial Organizer of
Y.P.S.L. Former member of the
State Executive Committee of
California.
THE eyes of thousands of
workers were turned on
June 1-3 to Detroit where the
Socialist Party held its CON
vention. With unemployment
increasing, strikes of a revolu-
tionary nature breaking out,
and the increased threat of war
and fascism approaching, Socialist
parry members from all sections of
the country watched with great in
terest the decisions on policy and
tactics that came out of what
should have been an important con-
vention.
OF the one hundred and fifty-odd
delegates that came to this conven-
ton, very few were workers. The
great ma jority of the delegates con-
sisted of lawyers, small. and large
business men. trade union officials.
officials Of the N. z. Jewish Daily
Forward, and Socialist politicians.
In the entire convention there were
only two Negro delegates, both of
whom were intellectuals. Here and
there could be seen a sincere worker
as a delegate, bu; as a whole the
group of delegates that assembled
to decide the policies and tactics to
"in5elligently" assume control of the
government were not workers.
AS one who has been in the Sc
cialist Far y considerable length
OF time end who ha5 attended sav-
eral ccnventicns. it was nothing
new to me to find that very email
proportion OF the tine OF tne cor
vsntion is sctuall1 devoted to he
all-important problem OF theory.
This convention WAS no exception.

At HCW Meet
Praises Dubinsky; Says
Union Is To the Left
of Russia

CHICAGO, June CBy MaiD.-
The star performer at Wednesdays
session Of the International Ladies
Garment Workers Convention was
jay Lovestone, renegade from the
Communist Party, who was intro
duced by David Dubinsky as a
spokesman for the C mmunis t
Party opposition. a gentleman
who is entitled to be heard in our
midst"
In demagogic fashion LoveStone
offered praises" for New Russia, :"
but in the next breath laid heavy
emphasis on what he called the
mistakes Of Russia"
Then he launched into praise of
the class collaboration policies Of
the leaders of the I. L. G.. W. U.
Although you are not radical
enough" he said, but, heaven
bless you, when you see other
unions, you have made a revolution
to the left Of Ru3sia!"
Like cheap Tammany or Fusion
party politician looking for positions
for his people, he praised the in
ternational leadership and warmly
shook hands with the whole clique
Of the most open agents of the
bosses in the needle industry.
The convention leadership there
upon got down to the work of re-
jec. ing resolutions of the rank and
file. A resolution for a referendum
for officers and other resolutions
that would bring trade union de-
mocracy into the organization we're
rejected.
General johnson. head of the
strikebreaking N. R. A., was an
nounced as the chief speaker for
the Friday session.
. A militant fight YVES put UP on
the floor for the adoption of the
Workers Unemployment Insurance
Bill, H. r. 1898, but the convention
machine railroaded through the
Wagner Reserves Bill, which pro-
vides for no unemployment insur-
ance for the millions now jobless
and would only give those who are
now employed $40 to sos if they
lose their jobs after the bill goes
into effect.

N. Y. Garment Workers
Demand Action

NEW YORK.-Over a thousand
members of the International Ladies
Garment Workers Union meeting
Thursday at Webster Hall dc
manded that the Chicago Conven-
ton of the I. L. G. w. U. imme-
diate,y get down to brass tscks and
take I'D the question Of militant
struggle for better conditions in the
shops.
A telegram was sent TO the con-
vention putting forth the demands
of the workers.
A resolution demanding the i'm
mediate release Of Ernst Thaelmann
was forwarded to the Nazi Consul in
New York.
Seven delegates, elected at a re-
cent I. L. C. w. U. left wing con-
ference to put forward a program Of

So that in this convention as in
the last, much of the most ilnpor-
tant business was not taken up by
the delegates, but was left to the
National Executive Committee. Such
important matters as the program
for a united from proposed by the
Communist Party was not even
publicly brought to the attention of
the delegates. RESOLUTIONS on the
Soviet Union we're referred to the
N. E. c., as were these relating 10
the Scottsboro Boys and Tom
Mooney.
From viewing these tactics on
the part of the Socialist Party
officials, one begins to see the cor
rectness of the Communist Party's
position when they say that it is
impossible to have united front
with the leadership of the So
cislist Party. / believe that if the
sincere elements in the conVcn-
tion had been allowed to vote on
the clear and intelligent proposals
for unity from the Communist
Party, they would have voted
favorabiy. But it was not even
brought to the attention Of the
delegates; l myself only knew
that there had been such pro-
posal from reading it in the Daily
Worker.
Ally with A. F, of L. Bu-ocracy
Supposedly, there were two major
groups within the Party fighting for
control, the Militants and the Old
Guards. The Miiitants, whose POSI-
ticn was supported by Norman
Thomas and Mayer Daniel Hoan,
represented themselves as having a
lefo-wing position; their actions al
the convention, however, disproved
this From the outset of the con-
vantion when the resolution on the
N. r. A. came up, they showed their
colors In the resolution, which was
a rathsr tame cri icism (snd in

SEVERE Foe
Blamed For Deaths Of Three
As Family Car Falls Into
Water Off Pier

LOS ANGELES, Dec. "a. UP)-
Fog which paralyzed harbor ship
ping in the heaviest blanket in
years lifted slowly today, leaving
three persons dead as result of the
thick pail.
Blinded by the impenetrable haze,
Elmer R. Hunt, 20, of Pasadena,
drove his automobile off a pier into
40 feet of water. Hunt saved him
self but hisw ife. Sabina, and their
two children, Arthur, 3, and Helen
Elizabeth, l, were drowned. Their
bodies were recovered.
Not ship moved out of port as
the fog thickened early last night.
Harbor lights were obscure and in
coming vessels had extreme diff
Guilty negotiating a landing. The
Panama-Pacific steamer Pennsyl-
vania required several hours to
nose past the breakwater.
The Santa Paula sought to clear
port but dropped anchor in the
outer harbor. The President Hoov-
er was delayed several hours be-
fore it could reach open sea.
Smaller craft dared not move.
The fog extended far inland.
Traffic proceeded at a snail s pace
in downtown Los Angeles where
street corners we're blotted out.
Search for an airplane, reported
wrecked in Ventura county, was
halted when the fog prevented
searchers from venturing safely
over mountain trails.
Heaviest in Years
Unofficial sources in Long Beach
said the fog there was the heaviest
in more than 20 years.
Hunt narrowly escaped the fate
of his family. Returning from a
visit at the California Yacht club,
he became confused in the fog and
drove off pier 1877 in small coupe.
81 remember hitting the bot
tom,' he told hospital attendants.
"I grabbed my boy who was Sit
ting between my wife and myself.
Helen was sitting on my wife IS
lap.
"But I couldn't hang on to him
and free my feet from the foot
pedals. I turned loose of him mo-
mentarily and tried to climb out
of the window. When I reached
back to grab him he was gone.''
He rose, screaming, to the sur
face and was hauled to safety by
an unidentified person who threw
him a lifeline from the dock.
