Our main response this your hoe come from the Lake Seaman; that is
those seamen who are on the ships. Formerly it was u question of on
organizational drive among the men on the beach. Fe have 893 members,
one out of that number, 75% are on the steel boats. Te can use these
; men to do organizational work by contacting the men on the steel boats.
It is hard to contact steel workers because they are surrounded by the
Company cope and guards. We must not neglect or disregard the I.S.U.
members. Some people think the members of the I.S.U. are deed - this
is n.t true. We must give nttrntion to the I.S.U. mnmhern as well as

proved very clearly that the sentimcni of actual r:nL and file
on the Puciiic Coast is cefinitcly to not up u national organiation
ano align themselves with the C.I.U. Any efforts of inciviiuals on
the Pacific Coast in opposition to this, on; their future actions
will expose them to stop the building of u notional orgunization
and the affiliation with the C.I.0. will mean that they eill cut
their own throats. There is not a possible chance that they will
get away with it. ihe Test Coasb Unions nre no" conductinq
rcferencun ballot and on it is the question of affiliation
C.I.O. and participation in the Hutionnl Convention thee is be halo.
Fro? ell ineicutionu the result will be favorable. I think the
Convention itself condemned the C.I.O. - which Ll"; sic Y? n vote 
this dio not indicate in any why whet the sentimcntc ol the men Kore
on U10 Pacific Coast.
Many organizations which are still n.F. of L. e¬filietcs and
will not tolcretc interference mitt jeir uffuirs  yet in cutters
that deal mith Maritime affairs, they hove votca, so tie ectuel cocision
is of no lmp0ItunCB.
The Federation of the Pacific is in it; lhat c<e.c of dis»
solution. The hutrodism that has been growing for the enst twenty years
is now on the decline. The men on the Coast ere coming closer to the
Atlentic Coast men unc are paving the nu; for e national setup. The
secncn of tre Peciiic do went a National organixction and they intend
to have it, and I knot that the Rank und File of the Pucific Coast
want a leadership of this hind. I so; thin auvinncly - and he an in-nartiul obsorver, I get e cleurer impression. I think our pQT5OH¢l ~ ///

This measure was introduced by Congressman Talgren of Washington

tne Maritime Comnission have been requested since then to make s renort
as to their opinion of the Bill. Whilst I have never seen any regort from
the Department of Uomnorce I can imagine what it would be. They certainly
woulo not send in u very favorable report on any bill that

must be born in zinc that our main purpose in introducing this Bill is
to amend the Law us regards to revocation of certificates of service

it should be pushec imwcoiutely when the nevt session opens.

New in regard to rcnedying&#39;this situation there are two courses which we cane &#39;
puruse. We can either take a test ease to court through our attorneys and which I think!
we would have a good chance of winning, or else we can introduce e bill which would 
specifically include all seamen on American Merchant Ships as being defined as entitled t
all rights and privileges under the present Tariff Act. I an of the opinion that we shou
take this to court first as introducing e Bill would be admitting that we are not cure as
to whether we are entitled to the rights of other classes of American citizens. AH:

or in Tznrica from this viewpoint. Thin can be 1 edily undor.fo¢1 when we look at sect it
of the obsolete laws affecting us which are still on the stntctc books. "5
&#39; I have had it pointed out to me that Just a little over n year age I was op;os92
to the seamen taking strong political action. Well, 1 certainly was. It must be remenbo l
tnongh that at that time the seamen had taken very little economic action iwith the _
exception of the Spring Strike! and economic action is necessary to any clans of workers
in order to fit than conscious of the necessity of political action. t least that has
always been my theory. Well, we have the necessary back3round new end are well experienced
to star the political field, so let us make the most of our opportunities.
To show the need of such political action by us 1 will quote briefly hers en
extract from the radio address given by Congressmen aenry G. Toigen Farmer-Labor
iepresentative from Hinnosots. Congressman Tiognn in his speech stated: POLITICAL ACTION
iECESSARI "it is sppsrsnt, I believe, that these industrial conflicts can only be ended
when the worners themselves are guaranteed continuous employment and the rlht to e
decent living at their own hands. This will require collective notion on their part. It &#39;
will not only require organization upon the economic field but will require united action
oalitically as well.I
During the pest few months the value of political action hse been demonstrated.
In every case snore the workers noted intelligently rt the polls inst November, they
Wave received some fair consideration at the hands of the officers of the lea when they
:ent out on strike. *uere, on the other bend, they foiioteo the advice of the capital-
ists press to ltn; out of_;oliticu, they were bludgeoned and bcten no by the hirelings
J? big business and the political state EJEU out on strike. Pernepn no better illus-
tration of this treatment can be found tnnn that which took place in Chicago plant of F
one Republic Steel Corporation on Memorial Day. 1 think it illustrates quite perfectly the 
sort of treitmont that the workers arc bound to receive wherever politinl power is lodged .
in the hands of lnbor&#39;s enemies. .I
This appeal from e real ;rogrossive member of the present Congress should be
stronn enough indication of the notion that will be necessary for us to take in the
future. Jther Congressmen have requested that I make this e; eel to all the Delegntes
more at our Convention. -
There is s little bond of progressive Senators end Conrrcennen in the prP"nt
dministrotion who have the interest of labor at heart, but mot of the time thnr 35*
been fignting with their backs to the wall, and they are so outnumbered that °"@Y can
make very little Headway. So it is up to us who are gathered here at thlr Cvnvnti

general idea of the work which hea been accomplished in Washington and the plan we r
have to follow in the future, so that the Maritime Workers, E103; with the workers L
other industries by working Jointly together can achieve the goal through political
action which will culminate in the formvtion in time of a real workers government»
