BRITISH COMMUNISTS
WAR ON TRADES UNIONISM. (Times Gables.) (By Cable—Press Assn.—Copyright.) LONDON, December 2. The eleventh Party Congress of the Communists of Great Britain, consisting of dess than 160 men and women, . mostly under thirty years of age, assembled at Leeds, and listened to long speeches denouncing Mr Ramsay MacDonald and his colleagues as “Social Fascists” and as “Allies of the capitalists, beating down the British workers.” Mr Harry Pollitt declared that a fight against organised Trade Unionism was required with its ruthless expulsion from the Communist Party. The conciliatory sections were criticised for a lack of revolutionary propaganda in the Communist speeches and literature. The International, he said, was most dissatisfied with the character of the Communist leadership in Britain.
