31. One cannot fail to recall in this connexion a remarkable novel by the classic author of Ukrainian literature, Panas Mirny, who gave a moving description of the struggle of the Ukrainian peasantry in the second half of the nineteenth century against social injustice and oppression. Depicting this struggle full of drama he gave the following very apt title to his novel: "Do the oxen low when the mangers are full?" No, the oxen do not low when the mangers are full. Let us eliminate colonialism and then these gentlemen, the colonialists, will not be haunted by the fears of uprisings of the colonial peoples.
