Metal Workers Support Stand of Party Against Opportunism.

That the Bolshevik stand taken by the Central Committee of the Party in its war on right wing opportunists has its roots deep in the revolutionary devotion of the proletarian core of the Party is again expressed in a resolution passed unanimously by the Ansonia, Conn., Nucleus.

"We support the decision of the Communist International and we also support the statements of the C.E.C. and the District Executive Committee. We strongly stand with our Party in the struggle against opportunism, Trotskyism and factionalism," the resolution declares.

Unconditional acceptance of the Comintern line is also pledged in a resolution passed at the general membership meeting of the New Haven, Conn., district. The resolution pledges loyalty to the decisions of the Comintern and the Central Committee "in the fight for a united Party in the U. S. A. under the leadership of the Comintern and for a fight against factionalism, against the right danger and Trotskyism."

One comrade who voted against the resolution, against the vote of 23, has since retracted from his stand and declares his solidarity with his fellow-Party members.
