All Forces Benin d
the Textile Strike!

TIME unbreakable unity Of the entire
working class, in every section of the
country, must now be reared in defense
of the general textile strike. Terror
against the strike, under the slogan of the
red scare" of drive out the Commu-
nists," is already in full swing. The en-
poyers and their government are modifying every
agency national guards, police, machine guns,
poison gas and the capitalist presto denoralt7e
and split the strikers ranks
The poison gas of dis-unity, Of attack on all
fighting textile workers is at this moment the chief
weapon of the strikebreskers In the forefront of
this poison gas attack the strike, side by side
with the employers detective agencies, and the
fascist Hearst press, stand William Green and the
national leadership of the United Textile Workers
Union shrieking the loudest throw out tbs reds"
fierce terror of national guard troops and police
is now being prepared against the strikers under
cover Of the red" scare.
The workers must not allow the fascist terror
drive, now being rapidly launched, to break up their
solidarity The Communist Party in every section
must now mobilize the whole labor movement 10
defeat these fascist attacks
The entire resources and all of the forces Of
the Communist Party In every section and every
district without exception, must at once be
stintedly thrown into support OF the textile strike
The Communist Party in every section Of the
country mast mobilize all Of its energies for the
winning Of the textile workers strEke-fOr the WIN
ming Of the demands Of the textile workers
THE winning of the fight against the vicious
stretchout against discrimination, for shorter
hours and higher wages, is now the most important
concern of every member of the Communist Party.
The Communists will take leadership in every
section in the fight to achieve the broad united
front of the textile workers to defeat the splitting
red scare" and other splitting tactics. The Com
munist Party especially calls on every member Of
the Socialist Party to join the united front TO
achieve an aggressive fighting policy to win the
strike and united front against the fascist red
scare" terror which, If successful would mean the
defeat Of the strike
The Communist Party will answer on the picket
lines the ISLANDERS Of the employers fnks Of the
treacherous UTW. national leaders, and of the
fascist press attacks Every worker in the textile
area who follows the leadership of the Communist
Party, will to the fullest extent take part in the
mass picketing Of every textile mill in the United
States and in all Of the strike activity
The Communists inside the United Textile Work
ers Union will raise their voices against any at
tempt on the part OF the U.TW national leaders
to defeat the textile workers demands to break
the strike. This applies to any attempts of the
UIW. leaders TO split the ranks through the red
scare; and to any attempts of these misleaders 10
end the strike in Roosevelt arbitration" boards
before the demands are won. The Communists put
forward the slogan-no arbitration no settlement
no move back to work, until the demands are won.
The building and strengthening of the Connu-
mist Party in the textile areas Is an urgent task
as the building Of the Party will in itself strengthen
the strike and ensure militant fighting strike
The distribution of the Daily Worker in every
textile center, the immediate increase of the circl-
laton Of the Daily Worker, to mass proportions IN
these textile areas, Is important task in the
strengthening Of the strike in defeating the terror
and the red scare, and achieving united lighting
policy to win the strike.
THE COMMUNIST PARTY calls on the textile
workers to take the strike activities and strike
leadership into their hands-nto the hands
OF the rank and file. The setting up at once of
broad united front mill strike committees, elected
by workers from every department of the mill will
guard against betrayas by the misleaders These
united front mill committees should take over all
strike activities and all negotiations The UTW
national leaders must be swept aside before their
attempts to betrsy the demands of the strike are
achieved in Roosevelt arbitration board
For the broad unity of the workers an over
