Description

In this article, I examine the role of Suehiro Nishio from the time, when the conflict became clear between the right and the left in the Japanese Federation of Labour, to its first split. Nishio virtually became its highest leader after the 13 th national Congress (Feb. 1924) of the Federation. In the autumn of 1924, he, who had come back from the International Labour Conference 国際労働会議, worked for its unity as a meditator of the conflict between the right and the left within the Kanto Federation of Labour 関東労働同盟会 because the headquaterssuch as the president Suzuki 鈴木 had lost the ability to solve it. The idealistic left was aiming at removing the leaders of the right, where-as the right persisted in excluding the left. So with difficulty, Nishio succeeded in bringing about a brief tranquility by objecting to the expulsion of the left and by admitting the foundation of the Kanto Regional Council 関東地方評議会. But the left still attacked the right at the National Congress in March 1925 and after that continued factional activities. Therefore Nishio reluctantly struck their names off the list by himself as the deputy president.
