celebrate by our activity, certainly,
but an historical process none the
less.
The Red international of Labor
Unions, whose general secretary, A.
Losovsky, gave this book to the world
thru a series of lectures before the
school of the Russian Communist
Party last year, has brought into this
historical process the objective anal
ysis and incisive direction Of inter
national Communism which has be-
come the dynamo of revolutionary
action thruout the world.
This book is a story Of unionism as
a world movement, how it became a
world movement, of the differing ideo-
logical currents within the great
stream, their varying specific gravity
in social power, the relation Of these
forces to each other, and the picture
almost prophecy-based upon
MARKHAM estimation, of the future de-
velopment of the trade union move
ment
There are eight lectures given, and
in each is portrayed the vital aspects
of one or more of the leading currents
of the worlds unions. Losovsky takes
up first the broad outline Of difference
between the trade unions of the world
before and after the war, showing
the profound effect that great human
slaughter and historical crisis had
upon world unionism.

OBSERVATIONS OF A PUBLICIST

Democracy, after the 4th Of August,
1914, has become a shrinking corpse
it is with this quotation Of Rosa Lux
emburg that her name will recorded
in the history of the workers move
ment Of the whole world. And in the
backyard of the workers movement,
on the rubbish heap, the poultry of
the type of Paul Levi, Scheidemann
and of this whole fraternity will of
course cackle triumphantly over the
errors of the great Communist wom-
an. Everything in it's right place.
AS regards Serrati, the Italian Com
munists, who have created a party of
the revolutionary proletariat in Italy,
will now have an instructive model
of Menshevism to put before the eyes
of the working masses. Not at one
stroke, not without many repeated in
structive lessons, will the useful
warning effect of this example make
itself felt, but it will inevitably do so.
Not to ALLEVIATE oneself from the
masses; not to lose patience in the
difficult work of practical exposure of
all the Serratis before the advanced
workers; not to accept the solution
which is at once too easy and most
dangerous; where Serrati says: A ito
repeat minus Az; to educate the
masses continually to a revolutionary
world outlook and to revolutionary
action; to make practical use also
of the magnificent Though dearly
bought) instructive lessons afforded
by Fascism-this done, and the vic
tory for Italian Communism is Sc
cured.
Levi and Serrati are not character
istic of themselves, but constitute the
modern sample of the extreme left
wing of petty bourgeois democracy,
of their" camp, of the camp of the
international capitalists who are fight
ing against US.
Their" camp, without distinction
from Gompers to Serrati, is rubbing
its hands with malicious joy or she'd
ding crocodile's tears over our retreat,
over our descent" over our new eco
nomic policy.
They are welcome to their mali
cious joy. Let them carry on their
clown-like antics. Everything in its
right place. But we must neither
abandon ourselves to illusions nor to
faint-heartedness. Let us not be
afraid to acknowledge our errors nor
afraid of the repeated work of rectify-
ing them-and we shall reach the
summit. The cause of the interna-
tfonal bloc from Gompers to Serrau
is lost cause.

runionism are here drawn in lines
clear and bold-the "trade unionism"
of the Anglo-Saxon countries which
limited its action to an theology con-
fined to narrow economic problems;
the socialist unionism" of the Ger
man type, which-though visioning a
new society in conformity with the
ideal of the pre-war socialist parties,
believed the traitorous leaders Of the
Second International who became
Socialist patriots" and accepted the
reformist illusion that the new society
could be won gradually by extending
democratic reforms inside capitalism
without the necessity of its revolu-
tionary overthrowal; and, thirdly, the
neutrality-suspicious. which was an
idealistic reaction both to conserv-
alive economic unionism and to the
reformist gradualism of the socialist
unions. This last form particularly
appeared in the Latin countries
The birth and organizational basis
of the International Federation of
Trade Unions are given, together with
an extensive and brilliant analysis of
the actions and tendencies of this, the
Amsterdam International, in the face
of the tremendous upheavals taking
place turnout the world since the war.
The great sympathy and patience with
which the Communists regard the
backward masses, slowly but surely
being forced on by capitalist economy
into revolutionary situations, are

sky exhibits toward the war-weary
working classes at the end of the inn
perialist butchery.
The Russian revolution brought to
birth new kind Of unionism, Com
munist unionism" and Losovslky in
timately portrays the phenomenal
growth Of this theological current in
the worlds trade union movement,
its relation to the other currents of
the movement in the stormy years
since the renaissance of union organ
ization after the war, and the contest
in the efforts of the Red international

mo one can tell how long it will
take" says Losovsky, until we will
win over this numerically gigantic
mass. We are present at the
very beginning of the dissolution of
the system of exploitation which has
been built up for centuries. 49,. But
one thing is clear; the more objective
ly we estimate the relation Of forces
outside and inside the working class,
the sooner will humanity arrive at the
developed form of Communist socie-
ty." No worker who aspires to under
stand the labor movement can do

book of it's kind.

brief) interval between the periods Of
the particular intensification of the
revolutionary combats which many
capitalist countries of Europe and
America passed thru in 1921 and at
the beginning of 1922, this will consti-
tute very great crime on their part.
Happily there is no reason to be anx-
ious in this regard. The noiseless,
unassuming, deliberate, unhasting but
profound work of constructing real
Communist parties in Europe and in
America, real revolutionary van
guards of the proletariat, has been
commenced, and this work is now go
ing on.
The political lessons to be derived
from the observation of even such a
trivial matter as fox hunting prove
not to be entirely without use: on the
one hand excessive caution leads to
errors. On the other hand we must
not forget that by substituting for a
sober estimation of the position mere
emotion" or waving of small red
flags, one commits irretrievable errors
and can even meet with complete
wreck, and that under circumstances
where, altho the difficulties be indeed
great, such a disaster is by no means
unavoidable.
Paul Levi now desires to render
special service to the bourgeoisie-
and consequently to it's agents, the
Second and Second and Half Inter
nationals = by publishing precisely
those works Of Rosa Luxembourg in
which she was wrong. To this we
reply with two lines of good Russian
proverb: 1t sometimes happens to
eagles that they descend lower than
poultry, but poultry never succeed in
mounting as high as eagles. Rosa
Luxembourg has committed errors in
the question of the independence OF
Poland; she made mistakes in 1905
in the estimation of Menshevism; she
has been in error as regards the the
DRY of the accumulation of capital;
she was mistaken when, in July, 1914

agents of the bourgeoisie within the
workers movement. This is an I'M
disputed fact. But this undisputed
fact does not eliminate the fact that
in single cases the Mensheviks were
right as against the Bolsheviks, as for
instance in the question Of the boy
colt of the Stolypin Duma in 1907.
Eight months have already passed
since the third congress Of the Com
munist International. Evidently our
dispute of that time with the left"
has already become antiquated, has
already been decided by life. l have
proved to be wrong as regards Levi
because he has successfully shown
that he had entered the Menshevik
path not by chance, not incidentally,
not only by reason of "exaggeration"
in face of the most dangerous error
of the left, but persistently, definitely,
out of his very nature. Instead of
honestly acknowledging after the
third congress of the Communist In
ternational the necessity of seeking
again to be admitted into the party
as man has to do who has incident
ally lost his head out of anger on ac-
count of some errors of the left-Levi
began to attack the party, to create
obstacles for it, i. e., to render prac-
teal service to the agents of the bour-
geosie in the Second and Second and
Half International Of course the
German Communists were quite right
in replying to this by further expel-
| ling some gentleman who had secretly
Offered help to Paul Levi in this noble
action.
The development of the German
and of the Italian Communist parties
after the third congress OF the Com
munist International shows that the
"left" have become clear regarding
the errors committed by them at that
congress, and that they are slowly
gradually but steadily improving
while the decisions of the third con
gress of the G. I. are being Loyalty
carried out. The Transformation Of
the old type of the European parlia

III. On Fox-Huntins; on Levi; on
Serrati.
It is said that the best method of
fox-hunting is the following: The fox
is encircled at a certain distance by
means of rope with small red flags
attached, not too high above the snow.
The fox, fearful Of this palpably arti-
fetal human" apparatus, energies
from the circle only at the spot where
the hunter expects him. One would
think that with such creature as the
fox, which is hunted by everybody,
caution would prove an extremely
valuable quality. But here "exaggera-
ton" of a virtue" converts it into a
disadvantage. The fox is caught pre-
cisely because of his excessive eau
ton.
l must confess to one error which ]
was fated to commit at the Third
Congress of the Communist Interna-
tional,-this also on account of exces-
sive caution. At that Congress l stood
on the extreme right wing. was con-
