BRITISH SOCIALISTS’ MOVE NEW CONSTITUTION ADOPTED 'FRONTAL ATTACK NEEDED’WRECK OF PRESENT ORDER By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright. London, July 81. "The Labour Party’s leadership, policy and organisation are unequal to the needs of the workers, while the freedom necessary to transform it into an effective Socialist instrument is denied to Socialists within the party,” declared Mr. Genner Brockway when outlining the Independent Labour Party’s new policy at Bradford. The Independents have severed their connection with the Labour Party. The times demanded a frontal attack, Mr. Brockway added. Communists were largely responsible for delaying the workers’ unity on the basis of uncompromising Socialism. A resolution was carried to fight suitable constituencies and requiring independents to resign from ithe Labour Party but to maintain membership and activities within trade unions and cooperative societies. 1 ' A new constitution was adopted aiming at the complete overthrow of the economic, political and social organisation of the capitalist state and. substituting a Socialistic commonwealth.
