Resolutions and Decisions of the Second World Congress of the Red International of Labor Unions:

Having heard the report of the Executive Bureau, the Second World Congress of the Red International of Labor Unions declares that the EB has fulfilled the tasks imposed upon it by the First International Congress of the RILU, and resolves: 1. To approve of the activities of the Executive Bureau directed towards the establishment of the United Front for the purpose of counteracting the advance of capital and of uniting the working class for the preparation of the proletarian offensive. 2. The Congress approves of the repeated appeals of the Executive Bureau to the Amsterdam International for joint action against the bourgeoisie, and declares that the fact that joint action has not been taken is entirely due to the Amsterdam International, which has preferred cooperation with the bourgeoisie to cooperation with the revolutionary workers. 3. The Congress approves of the attempts of the Executive Bureau to draw all the anarcho-syndicalist organizations into the RILU for the joint struggle against the bourgeoisie and against reformism. 4. The Congress approves of the position taken by the Executive Bureau towards the attempt to split the revolutionary trade union movement under the banner of an “Independent,” but in reality an anarcho-syndicalist International. 5. The Congress wishes to emphasize that some of the anarchistic groups working in the trade union movement, in the reaction against the RILU very often form a united front with the reformists and the bourgeoisie against the revolutionary Russian proletariat and against the Russian Revolution. 6. Considering the necessity of strengthening by all means the influence and the role of the International Industrial Propaganda Committees, the Congress charges the newly elected Executive Bureau to strengthen, on the basis of a concrete program of action, their practical organizational and propaganda activity directed towards the concentration of all the revolutionary forces in the trade union movement along industrial lines on an international scale. 7. Stating that up to now the organizations affiliated with the RILU have not been connected with the centre to a sufficient degree, the Congress considers it as the most important task of the Executive Bureau to establish regular and systematic connections with all the organizations, and to extend and to strengthen the work of agitating and uniting the masses in order to build up militant and hardened experienced unions, for the overthrow of the bourgeoisie and for the establishment of the Dictatorship of the Proletariat.
