Thesis on international Relations.
We the peasants Of the agrarian
communes affirm and sustain that the
proletarian organizations must tend to
greater and greater Capitalization.
And for the realization Of our destiny
it is not sufficient to organize on ma,
tional lines but on international lines
In this our Second Congress has
been planted the project of the nation.
al agrarian organization. Why?
Simply because the peasants wish
to take advantage Of their acquired
experience, they wish to perfect their
organization, they wish to strengthen
themselves, and they feel the need OF
such an organization; not an organiza,
ton as mere formula, but one that
is effective and solid.
This aim and this new tendency
shows that the peasants Of the state
Of Vera Cruz are beginning to compre.
bend the historic mission Of the pro-
letariat-that his mission is the real.

government and the absolute control
of such government OF the land and
all the factors Of production.
The peasants understand that the
realization of their proletarian destiny
cannot be accomplished except by
strong organization which will result
in their own capacity to direct tho
proletarian economy in not too dis.
tant future.
It will be we'll to analyze at this
juncture the continental situation in |
relation to American Imperialism.
Against Imperialism Of U. S. A.
Our internationalism is not the pro
duct Of an insane desire for empty
phrases, but it is the product Of tn
necessity to insure ourselves tc
strengthen ourselves against our near
est, power and real enemy. This en-
envy is not a chimerical fantasy, 1t IL
an only too tangible reality-THE I'M
PERIALISM OF THE UNITET
STATES. This absorbing imperialism
has thrust its tentacles into all Span
disappearing countries, after crushing
its own working masses.
The Latin-American countries are
in fact colonies Of U. S. imperialism
One of these colonies, alone, nc
matter how powerful it may be eco
nomically cannot fight against OF
withdraw from this system of absorb
ing Imperialism. And precisely in
this lies the reason for our present
tendency towards Decentralization
But first let us see what is an inter
national, how many internationals ex-
list and which of them suits us most,
InternatlonaIIsm in Two Forms.
There are two distinct international
tendencies: one based upon the class
struggle and the other in the defense
for the collaboration Of classes.

1t is to this yellow international
that our working class leaders,"
servile dogs, blind instruments Of
Yankee imperialists, are trying to !
bind us.
Hail the Peasants international.
The second congress OF the league
OF agrarian communes of the state OF
Vera Cruz has affiliated itself with the
peasants international at Moscow
but we must not stop with this simple
adhesion, which will not be complete
unless we use all our power to form
a united front with all Latin-American
countries, to fight American imperial.
