I ?" ? ?? ? . ? - GIVE THE AMERICAN BLUEGRASS A SHOW ? I II ??!???! I " " " ' " I ?Reproduced by permission New York Tribune, Copyright, 191ft TO "CONQUER AND DESTROY STATE," U. S. COMMUNISTS CALL FOR LAROR REVOLT Revolutionary Pamphlet, Found in U. S. Department of Justice Investigations, Gives Message of Com munists in Chicago to Russian Headquarters. Extracts from "Manifesto and Program?Constitution?Report to the Communist International" by the Communist Party of America, Chicago, III. ?? Communism does not propose to 'capture' the boutgeolse parliamentary state, bat to conquer and destroy It. As long as the bourgeolse state prevails, the capitalist class can baffle the will of the proletariat In those countries In which historical development has furnished tbe opportunity, the working class has utilised the regime of political democracy tor Its organisation against Capitalism. Tbe older unionism was based on the craft divisions of small Industry. The unions consisted primarily of skilled workers whose skill Is Itself a form of property. The unions were not organs of the militant claas struggle. To day the dominant unionism la actually a bulwark of Capitalism, merging in Imperialism and accepting State Capitalism. The proletarian revolution comes at the moment of crisis In Capital lam, of a collspseof the old order. Under the Impulse of the crisis, the proletariat |#ta for the conquest of power, by meana of mass action. Mass action concen trates end mobilizes tbe forces of tbe proletariat, organised and unorganised;! It acta equally against the bourgeois state and the conservative organisations of tbe working class. Strikes of protest develop Into general political strikes | snd then Into revolutionary mass action for the conquest of the power of the - state. Msss action becomes political in purpose while extra-parliamentary In form ; It Is equally a process of revolution and the revolution Itself in operation. The Communist Party Is the conscious expression of the class struggle of the workers against capitalism. Its aim Is to direct this struggle to the eon-I quest of political power, tbe overthrow of capitalism and the destruction of the bourgeois state. ' The Communist Party prepares Itself for the revolution In the measure that It develops a program of immediate action, expressing the mass atrng-1 glee of the proletariat. These struggles must be Inspired with revolutionary spirit and purposes. The Communist Party la fundamentally a party of action. It brings to the workers a consciousness of their oppression, of the impossibility of Im proving their conditions under capitalism. The Commnnlst Party directs the workers' struggle against capitalism, developing fuller forms and patpoao* In this struggle, culminating In the mass action of the revolution. flhe Communist Party shall make the great Industrial struggles of the working class Its major campaigns. In order to develop an understanding of the strike la relation to the overthrow of capitalism. (a) The Communist Party shall participate In mass strikes, not only to achieve the Immediate purposes of the strike, but to develop the revolutionary Implications of tbe mass strike. (b) Mass Strikes are vital factors. In the process out of which develops the workers' understanding and action for the conquest of power. (c) In mass strikes under conditions of concentrated capitalism there is talent the tendency toward tbe general msss strike, which takes on a political character and manifests the Impulse toward proletarian dictatorship. In these general mass strikes the Communist Party shall emphasise the necessity of maintaining Industry snd the taking over of social function^ asually discharged by the capitalists and tbe institutions of capitalism. Tbe strike must cease being isolated and passive; It must become positive, general and aggressive, preparing the workers for tbe complete assumptlta of lndns WaLand social control. . ?< ? (a) Every local and district organisation of the Pnrty shall establish , contact with lndustrisl unit* in lta territory, the ahopa, mill* and ml nee?and direct Its afltatleo accordingly. (b) Shop Committee* ahall be erfnalsed wherever possible fer the pur pose of Communist agitation In a particular shop or Industry by tye workers employed there. These committees shall be united with each other and with fee Communist Party, so thst the party shall have actual contact with the workers and mobilise them for action against capitalism. Ths Communist Party must engage actively In t)ie struggle te revolution ise the trade unions. As against the unionism of the American Federation of labor, the Ooamunlst Party propagandlsee Industrial unionism and Industrial onion organisation, emphasising their revolutionary Implications Industrial Unionism la not simply s mesns for the everyday struggle against capltalU m; Ma ultimate purpose Is revolutionary, Implying the neceaalty of ending the capitalist parliamentary state. Industrial Unionism Is a factor In the final mass action for the conquest of power, aa It will constitute the baais for the Industrial administration of the Communist Commonwealth. <a) The Communist Party recognises that the A. W. of L la reactionary and a bulwark of capltallaiu. (b) Councils of workers shsll he organised in the shops ss circumstance* allow, for the purpoee of carrying on the Induetrlal anion struggle In the old unions, uniting mirl mobilising the militant elements; these councils to be unified in a Central Coancll wherever poeelble. (c) It ahall be n major task of the fommunlet Party to agitate for the construction of s general Industrtsl union organization, embracing the I. W. W., W. L L C? Independent and secession unions, mlHtant unlona of the A. F. of L, and the unorganised workers, on the basis of the revolutionary dags struggle. The Comm unlet Party shsll encourage movements of ths workers In the shopa seeking to res Use workers' control of Industry, white Indicating their limitations under capitalism: concretely; any movement analogous to the Shop stewards of England. These movements (equally directed against the union bureaucracy) ahould he related to the Communist Party.
