BERLIN, Oct. l. The Third Inter
rationale continues to attempt to rid
the German Independent Socialist party
o. leaders who refuse to follow the
Bolshcvik leading strings The papers
here to-day print two kilograms from
Riga, giving a letter which the cxecu-
tive committee of the Third Intcrna-
tionalc addressed to the German indie
pendcnts. also an appeal by Lcnine to
the whole body of independents. Both
documents arc dccid eddy pugnacious in
character and evidently will have the
effect Of widening the rift in the In
the recent visit of some Of it's leaders
to Moscow and the onerous conditions
exacted by the Moscow 1ntcrnational c
for the admittance of the German in
dependents thereto
The executive committee in it's let
ter, accuses the Independent leaders
right wing Of "the acme Of disloyalty
and dishonesty" and speaks Of creme
Gades of the type Of Kautsky and Hill
ferding' The letter demands that the
organs Of the Independent Socialist
party be edited by "honcst revolutions
lists and convinced communists
Crispien and Dittmann Targets
The letter strikes out herccly at
Crispien and Dttmann, who have
taken an active part in resisting Mos
cows assumption of authority to die
tate to the German independents, say
ing "If the Independent party refuses
TO eNpc such traitors from its ranks
20 tct 0,,+,
party"
Lenine's announcement runs along
similar lines and was written in equally
heated temper Lenne Eliminates
across all the frontiers, denouncing
the moderate socialist elements of Eng
land. France and Italy. as we'll as
Germany. He continues:
at is high time to dispel the H.
fusion that there can be any peace
with such elements. The revolutionary
workmen must close their ranks, ex-
clude such elements and build up
united proletarian parties"
Meanwhile, the Majority Socialists
regard these Developments with uncon-
cealed satisfaction. Norwarts. for sew
eral days, has been recording with
delight all disruptive movements among
the independents and is openly urging
the leaders rebuffcd by Moscow to re-
turn TO the old party ranks
Pan-Germaner Than Ever
The Pam German League. which is
h folding its annual convention in Frank
fort, evidently has learned nothing
from the war. It's president, Dr.. Glass,
gave out the slogan in his opening
speech: Pan Germaner than ever!5
and further declared "Bismarck's en-
pire shall rise again, purified within
and freed from the dirt of foreign
enemies. Not ore foot of German soil
must remain separated from the EN-
pire. not one German remain without
the fold. Thus we preach irredentism. u
The Deutsche Zeitung, which is the
organ of the Pan Germans, reports
that these words were greeted with
thunderous applause. In a later speech
Glass demanded the restoration Of the
monarchy. without demanding the re-
turn of Wilhelm II. Great applause
also was called out by the announce
ment that new registry of the Ger
man nobility is being arranged, ex.
Guiding all mobiles intermixed with
Jewish blood. All families ennoblec
since 1900, whose ancestors were Jew
ish. will not be recognized as of the
nobility.
