COMMUNIST FARMER-LAHO- PARTY R The communist party leaders are out to organize a farmer-labo- r party in the United States. The Utah section of the communist-dictate- d political movement is in the making. The initiative steps were taken at a meeting of 150 communists held in Salt Lake City recently when Robert Minor, executive board member of the communist party, U. S. A., explained the G. Dimitroff plan of farmer-labo- r political action. This meeting was presided over by John II. Barton, a delegate from the Barbers' union to the Salt Lake Federation of Labor, and for several years an active worker and leader in radical movements of Utah. The communist leaders stress the point that their sponsored farmer-labor party and must NOT be an party MUST BE an anti-fasci- st party. The cry of the red movement is to build the united frontl party! Oppose capitalistic reaction! and Organize the farmer-labo- r At the same time they urge their followers to read the Daily Worker and join the communist party. The entire scheme is to eventually sovietize the American workers farmer-labo- r and farmers. The communist-propose- d party is just another one of the 57 varieties of schemes to fool the American workers, especially the new and inexperienced members of the A. F. ' of L. trade unions. Regardless of the name of the scheme its way points to the red flag of the cut and knock, the emblem of communism. There .are certain members of trade unions in Utah, some of them holding official positions in the labor movement, who are sympathetic to the cut and knock flag. Some of them are aiding and abetting the red cause, and perhaps some of them are even members of the movement which desires to stamp out democracy from the bona fide labor movement as well as from the government of the United States At least, some of them are known to attend secret sectional meetings where plans are concocted for the advancement of the "cut and knock order. From time to time the Utah Labor News has exposed the "red Activities in Utah. Because it has done this, this publication is not in good graces with those labor leaders and trade union members who would like to see the cut and knock insignia hoisted above Ob anti-commun- 20-t- Axelgard, Harold Olson, George Wallace, Henry Alley, E.
