murder by fascists of Matteotti,
by the Central Committee of the
party. The message is as follow
"The Communist party Of
Great Britain sends its fraternal
greetings to the Italian working
class and to it's militant van
guard-the Communist party of
Italy.
1.-THE Communist Party of Great
Britain, while expressing its horror
at the brutal murder of Matteotti,
the Socialist deputy, nevertheless adj
vises the workers of Italy, and espe-
cially the Communist party, not to be
deceived by this sudden change of
front now being shown by the interna-
tional buorgeoisie.
eve have always followed with TIN
keenest interest the long and desper-
ate struggles of the Communist Party
Of Italy against the organized hordes
Of Fascist murderers ranged behind
Mussolini.
Second International Indifferent.
"The Communist Party of Great
Britain has protested time after time
in Great Britain against the outrage
GUS attacks continually made upon the
workers of Italy, BUT WE PRO
TESTED ALONE! The bourgeois and
Second International organizations in
Great Britain looked on indifferently
at the long series of crimes commit
ted by the Fascist government against
the Italian workers and SO far from
assisting us in the fight against FaV-
cism, actually within recent weeks,
thru the leaders of the Second Inter
national, an official welcome was ex-
tended to the Fascist King of Italy.
Now taking their cue from the Italian
bourgeoisie, these Second Information
al leaders rouse themselves to indig-
nation against this latest crime of
Italian Fascism. What has happened?
Comrades, so long as Fascism was
serving the interests of the bour-
geoisie it was free to murder as it
pleased. But while murder of the
workers and especially the Commun.
lists was means to the breaking up
of the workers movement, it could do
nothing to solve the problems of CAPT
talism. So far as these problems are
/ concerned Fascism in it's present form
has been complete failure.
8ourgeoisie Adapting Faseism.
"The workers forces encouraged by
the Communist party of Italy are re-
organizing once more for the struggle.
The bourgeoisie are not opposed to
Fascism, but its present form must be
changed if it is to further serve their
purposes. We do not see in the muA
der of the Socialist Deputy Matteotti
the cause for this revolt against Fas-
cism. We see in this revolt the bour-
geoisie Selling it's opportunity for the
transformation of Italian Fascism into
more pliable and useful weapon
against the working class. 1t would
be a mistake to believe that what is
happening today means the end of
Fascism. Fascism will continue to
manifest itself in different forms thru
out the international movement of the
proletariat as long as capitalism is
menaced by the revolutionary working
class.
With the Fascist SIayers.
"The fight against capitalism there
fore must go on. We must not be
fooled by the oily tongued phrases
Of the Second International. AS in the
past, when real crises arise, these
gentlemen will be found ranged with
the Fascists against the insurgent
working class.
"The Communist party of Great
Britain sends cordial greetings to the
Communists of Italy and expresses its
determination to join with them in the
international struggle against Fas-
cism."
