takes UP the question of the prob
lens and types of Workers Govern
ments as follows:
CHAPTER TX.
Problem Of Workers Government.
Types Of workers Governments"
THE main point is that in the re-
solution is the following passage:
There are various labor party gov
ernments as the one in power in Eng
land now, but not all are proletarian
governments. For D'Arragona, every
workers government is good For
Radek, for Brandler, for many com
rades in Czecho-Sloval1ia, feel it is
the same. Although they realize that
it is not the dictatorship of the pro-
letariat.
We have now collected some ex-
perience and must say frankly that
the essence Of the slogan for us is;
method of agitation and of organ
izing the masses. We must, Of course,
take advantage Of the situation Gre
ated by the existence Of labor gov
eminent, like that Of MacDonald's
The workers government is for US
the most powerful and popular form
ula for the dictatorship of the pro-
letariat. The workers and peasants
perform the deed and then under
stand it, We must adopt the popular
formula as we did in the Russian Re-
volution. This is no small question,
it is not question Of mere style, but
question whether we are a party
which can touch the peasants and
soldiers where they are most recep-
tive, party which is not sect but
mass party as the Bolsheviks were.
Every bourgeois government is at
the same time a capitalist govern
ment, but not every workers govern
ment is real proletarian govern
ment, 1. e. revolutionary weapon Of
proletarian power. The Communist
International must take account of
the following possibilities.
1. A liberal labor government. Such
government existed in Australia;
such a government may soon arise in
England in the near future.
2. A social democratic workers
government Germany.
8. A workers and peasants govern
ment. Such possibility exists in the
Balkans, Czecho-Slovakia, etc.
4. A workers government with
Communist participation.
5. A genuine proletarian workers
government, which can be realized in
its pure form only by the Communist
Party.
know many comrades, neverthe-
less, have a great objection to the tao
tics of the united front as such.
can offer these comrades only one
comfort. say to them that the unit
ed front and the workers govern
ment are only instruments for the
mobilization and organization Of the
working masses. II that does not
please them propose compromise.
Win the support of the majority OF
the working class in your country,
and we will Immediately absolve you
from the use of these instruments

of the most important strata of the
proletariat, certainly you may allow
yourself to be less strict in the use
Of these tactics. But, in the most i'm

tests. But since then the Parties have
divided. The parliamentary Commun-
ist fraction ASSOCIATED itself from the
declarations made by the other Par
ties. All the other Parties, including
even the maximalists, formed a joint
committee of parliamentary opposi-
ton. In connection with this, a very
peculiar thing happened. The Com
munist Party proposed the general
strike as protest against the assas-
sination of Matteotti. Strikes had
already broken out spontaneously.
But all the other Parties were OF
course opposed to the proposal of the
Communist Party, and advocated n
10 minutes strike. But even fascist
and employers organizations were in
favor of this PROPOSAL Thereby this
strike was deprived of all political and
class Importance. 1t is self-evident
that the Communists alone proposed
the right form of protest with which
the assassination of Matteotti should
have been met.
What is the present position Of the
Mussolini government and what is the
general defeat which might lead to in
teresting developments. The situation
can change much more rapidly than
we expected before the Matteotti af-
fair took place., 1t is clear that the
position OF the fascist will be much
more difficult in the future and that
the possibility of anti.fascist action
has taken place.
Communists Gain.
The problem which confronts the
revolutionaries as as follows: How
are we to use this situation and what
is to be our attitude? The Party must
insist on the autonomous role which
was assigned TO it. It must adopt
the slogan OF the liquidation Of all
anti-fascist oppositions, and must re-
place them by an open and direct ac-
lion Of the Communist movement.
There are certain facts which have
given prominence to our Party. Since
the election and since other nantes
tations and demonstrations OF the &C.
tivity and vitality OF our Party, our
adversaries have adopted different
language toward us. The fascist press
wants to enter into polemics with us
almost daily in connection with the
Matteotu affair, and this draws public
