The leader of the German Spartacides, the

treacherous role played by the Socialist
compromisers, the followers of Scheidemann,
in suppressing the Communist movement
and uprisings in Germany. The entire Con-
gress, and all delegates present at this
sitting, once more paid their respects to the
leaders of the Communist movement Karl
Liebknecht and Rosa Luxembourg.
'The Communist cause" says Comrade
Levi, "since their tragic death grows and
becomes stronger daily and hourly through
out all Germany. At the present moment
the country is making an inventory Of its
Communist forces, which have established
deep root in the proletariat, which latter is
gradually freeing itself from the hypnosis
of compromise parties. 1t is being pushed in
this direction by the cruel actualities of
present day Germany"
The speech Of Comrade Levi does not
leave any doubt that Germany will he one
of the first to enter on the road Of social
revolution.

SPEECH OF CoMRADE sERRATI.

In the name of the communistic, inter
nationalist Italian Socialist Party, which is
adhering to the Communist international,
Comrade Serrati greets the brilliant Red
Army, the defender of Soviet Russia, and
the defender of the great ideals Of the
world proletariat.
He says that when the world war broke
out, in Italy the traitors of the working
class wished to convince the latter that it
was necessary to go over to the side Of the
bourgeoise; they spread the idea that once
the proletariat gets hold of iron, once it
gets hold of rifles, then It will be able to
win its bread and secure its liberty. "But
from the very first day, the Italian party
cut loose from the ist-Traitors," says
Comrade Serrati.
'0They said it was not question of hav-
ing iron and rifles in hand, and of fighting
on the side of the bourgeoisie, but a ques-
tion of fighting on the side Of the working
class against the bourgeoisie, with rifles OF
without always and everywhere.
"And now the glorious Red Army has
shown by experience that iron and rifles
are a revolutionary weapon only when the
working class as an army can control this
weapon; this means only for the conquest

heroic concentration of strength and will-power
overturned the authority of capital in one of the
most important forts of the bourgeois world.
"The proletarians of all countries know how much
YOU proetarians of Petrograd have suffered during
the last three years, how you have famished, how
many of your best sons have persisted at the front
defending the great cause of Communism. The work
men of the whole world love you particularly be-
cause you did not hesitate for minute at the
time of the great crisis that threatened Petrograd
and the entire Soviet Republic but defended the
bloodsoaked Red Flag win the courage of lions, with
tireless daring and with the steadfastness of the
Petrograd proletariat
"The Communist International says to you: The
Petrograd Commune carries on in worthy manner
the cause of the Paris Commune, avoiding the
weaknesses and mistakes of the latter and leading
the proletarian battaons to victory.
"The Communist international is convinced that
the workmen of Red Petrograd will continue tt
