United States. Congress. House. Committee on Un-American Activities
Communism -- Washington (State) -- Seattle
In issuing this answer the Communist International called
attention to the fact that it has consistently urged a United
Front of all working class groups so as to carry on a more
powerful resistance to the spread of Fascism. The answer contained
an appeal to all sections of the Communist International to take
steps to build the United Front of the International Proletariat
in their respective nations. Accordingly the Central Committee of
the Communist Party of the U. S. A. has further appealed to all
districts of the Communist Party to carry out this new policy of
the Communist International.
Therefore the Communist Party of the Bellingham Section of
District 12, issues this call and appeal to the Socialist Party,
and all organizations desiring to enter the Class struggle on the
side of the working class in a solid United Front and actively
struggle against the forces of Fascism.
To do this the Communist Party proposes that joint meetings be
held between the various groups and the Communist Party, from
which meetings or conferences, programs of struggle can be adopted
which will be designed for the betterment of the conditions of the
Working Class.
This appeal is made by the Communist Party with the purpose of
arresting the spread of Fascism and pushing forward the cause of
the International Proletariat.
Issued by the Section Buro of the Bellingham Section of the
Communist Party U. S. A., District 12.

_Section Organizer_.
FOR THE REORGANIZATION OF THE SECTION
1. The method for reorganizing the Party in the Sections of the
Communist Party has been tersely put by stating “turn the face of
the Party to mass work.”
In the mass work are to be found the political problems which are
facing the workers. There will be found the material which will
make possible the “all-sided political exposures” which are a
necessary prerequisite to good Party-Mass work.
2. In order to accomplish a reorientation of the party in Whatcom
County, it is necessary that Party Units be organized in the most
natural manner possible at the present time.
This can be done by neighborhood groupings, consequently it
will be the policy here to organize the Party on the basis
of geographical position. But this will not do away with the
orientation to other forms of organization, that is the shop unit,
and fractions.
3. The Unit meetings should be at regular times at regular places
for the present until the units are closer knit together. But for
this policy to be a success, the meetings must be kept secret.
Loose talk about unit meetings in the presence of other persons
must stop.
