The nomination of Barry Goldwater as Republican candidate for president sharpened the danger of reaction coming to power,” said U.S. Worker editor James E. J ob has ack- son in a front page story last week. ‘“‘The Republican Party has moved off into a new et ... it is the party of the ultra-Right . . . it is the national party of an American bran fascism, of a 1964 vintage McCarthyism,’) he said. The Goldwater nomination has sent shivers throughout the world, His acceptance speech in which he said extremism was no vice and moderation no virtue has stirred up a storm, Un- doubtedly this statement was aimed at justifying his own ex- treme position and the takeover of the Republican Party by ex- tremist forces, Commenting on the new danger to the world and the U.S, posed by the Goldwater movement and ultra-right conspiracy, the lead- ing Communist spokesman, Gus Hall said in a speech last week that the American people “now face anew and a most dangerous threat from a newly polarized front of reaction, One is forced to seriously warn about a new danger of fascism, “An evil reactionary alliance of the war-crazy, the fanatical, racists and white supremacists, the anti-labor mobs, all anti- democratic outfits, the anti-Se- mites, the anti-Communist cru- saders, the Birchites, the Minute Men, the KKK - has now coales- ced into a new and serious chal- lenge to all of the victories of our people,” said Hall, e@ Pointing out that the Republican Party is being taken over lock, stock and barrel, Hall said “this evil alliance controls the Demo- cratic Party in the South, They are the most organized of any re- actionary threat in our history, They are the most demagogic, the most brutal and violent of any tried so far, They have all the money they can spend, “This ultra-Right erystalliza- tion has taken on new and serious proportions, They will now have the respectability of a presiden- “774 - Sale Bal: —_— tial-candidate of one of the two old parties, There is a coming together of the fanatical and the conservative, “This evil reactionary coali- tion is not just an electoral coali- tion, It must be seen as the emer- gence of a reactionary fascist- like-wave, Its aim isnothing less that state power,” said Hall, add- ing that ‘‘the remaining weeks and days of the 1964 election campaign are a crucial phase of the struggle against this con- spiracy,” Discussing the coming election Hall said “in 1964, for the Left to accept the slogan, ‘There are. no differences between the two candidates’ is the most effective Toronto typo lockout shows need for public control of automation The need for legislation with teeth in it to ensure some meas- ure of public control over auto- mation was urged this week in a statement by the National Exe- cutive Committee of the Com- munist Party, which dealt with the lockout imposed by three To-. ronto daily newspapers, The statement reads: “The present lockout imposed by the three Toronto daily news- papers against the Typographical Union highlights the new pro- blems the workers will be facing as automation advances in indus- try after industry, “The question at issue in this lockout is: Shall working men and women be placedon the scrap “heap in the interests of the great- er power and profit of monopoly - Or shall working people share in _ the benefits of automation by re- duced hours of work with no re- duction in take home pay, in- creased leisure and higher liv- ing standards? “No employer should have un- limited power to introduce auto- mation irrespective of its social consequence to the workers andto society as a whole, “What is required is legisla- tion with teeth in it which would ensure some measure of public control over automation, Thereis need to strengthen democracy in’ industry andin plants which would enable the workers to lessen speed - upthrough some measure of control over production, “The machine must not be al- lowed to become master over man, Men must become master of the machine, To achieve that the unlimited powers of monopoly must be curbed, “In this year’s negotiations in industry after industry, the work- ers are asking for agreater share of the values they produce, They are perfectly right in so doing, Productivity has risen, Prices are rising, Profits continue to go up and up and up, Workers are not satisfied these days to mere- ly accept a crumb, They want to enjoy a good life, “Are the working people who produce all the wealth of this province not entitled to it? Are they not entitled to job security and a life of dignity? “Some of the employers, the big monopolies, say NO! “In place of oneal negotiations there is an increasing use of in- junctions, In place of collective bargaining there is a growing effort at strike-breaking, union busting and the run-away plant, All unions are affected by it. “In the meantime the govern- ment ‘of all the people’ stands idly by, The use of injunctions in strikes is a negation of demo- cracy, Its purpose is to uphold corporate wealth, destroy the de- mocratic rights of the working people, and reduce living stan- dards, “The labor movement, if uni- ted, is strong enough to put an end to such strike-breaking ma- chinery, Where there is unity and solidarity the workers win, Where there is division and dis- unity, the workers lose, “This unity and solidarity is needed to help the locked out wor- kers in the three daily papers win their demands, One way of making such a victory possible is by supporting the proposals of the Toronto Labor Council for a boycott of the daily papers, “This unity and solidarity can also help all workers in negotia- tions to win agreater share of the wealth they produce, This unity and solidarity can compel action which would ensure that the bene- fits of automation will be shared by the Canadian people, “The Communist Party unre- servedly stands with the workers in their just fight,” July 24, 1964—PACIFIC TRIBUNE—P°9 e reac aid th ego support for the extrem tionary candidates,” He U.S. Communists “have a very sharp criticism oftheJ?™ its po son administration - on its oe cies in South - East Asia, don Latin America, and on many 6 estic policies, .
