ACCEPTED LINES "The Co-operative Commonwealth Federation exists for the purpose of educating the public to an understanding of and a realization of the need for socialism. It is a political organization working along lines accepted and customary in the field of political Institutions, generally called constitutional. "We consider our organization eminently fitted to fill the field in this particular form of activity. We have no desire at this time to examine the policies and tactics of the Communist Party, but wish to state that we can see no reason for the existence of another political party claiming to have the same ideas and representing the working class operating in the same field. "Since in large measure the policies and particularly the tactics of the Communist Party do not coincide with those of the Federation, we feel that no good purpose could be served by cnasidering them further.

"To us the differences are fundamental irreconcilable. CO-OPERATION STAND "There have been and there may be matters such as the Relief Camp strike upon which we have co-operated and will continue to co-operate with other organizations interested to the removal of any such grievances. "Thus we may co-operate with the Ministerial Association, the Trades and Labor Council, the Parent-Teacher Federation, the Communist Party and any other organization whose members sincerely seek redress of present evils. "We do not, however, consider it necessary to make 'working agreements' or 'united fronts' with any of these several organizations, but will deal with such grievances as they arise from time to time. "As a political organization, working for socialism, we can not endorse any candidates other than those of our own party.

Should the Communist Party consider it advisable to support our candidates on the political field, there is nothing to stop them from so doing." of the world. shoremen Sunday night, after four hours' deliberation.
