LeaaeY Of the Past

Legacy OF tnS Fdot
The first part is that section of the
Comintern which was born Of the Sec
ond international, former social DEM
ocrats; the second is the new genera
ton of workers which has grown up
during and after the war. NBoth sec
tions have their strong and their weak
sides. 1t is generally known that the
tactics of the Communist Interna-
tional, the tactics Of Bolshevism and
Leninism, developed themselves main
ly in the struggle against social de-
mocracy, against the right wing, and
against the centrists. 1t is clear,
therefore, that Leninism could not but
fight, even now, against the survivals
of social democracy which naturally
were and are present in the Com
munist International
1t is less known, however, that Boil
shevism had to conduct great strug-
giles against other digressions, fire.

1t is customary to describe these
digressions as left" Bolshevism
fought against these left" digressions
before the revolution; in the Com
munist International itself, its founder
and leader, Lenin, carried on great
struggles against these digressions on
an international scale, as the Execu-
tive Council has to do now.

Land at 50 to SIS per Acre.

DALLAS. Tex, July 1.-THE last
large body of public land will be sold
by the state of Texas Sept Q. This is
$1,000 acres which was recovered from
syndicate as overpayment after they
built the state capitol.
All proceeds from the land. which
will be sold under the bidding system,
will go into the state school fund. The
state retains one-eighth mineral, oil
and gas right, the purchaser taking
over seven-eighths. Most drilling com.
panies require seven-eights before put
ting down a well so the state has
a larger subsoil right than the land
owner
Corporations cannot buy any OF the
land, though as much as 5,120 acres
can be bought by one person. Prices
range from SO to SIS per acre.

RED CONGRESS-
ARGUES UNITED
FRONT ISSUES
England and America
Under Discussion
Continued from page ~

Continued from page IL
Social-democracy and Fascism are the
heutenants OF the bourgeoisie in this
offensive. The coalition of all nom
Fascist parties against the Fascist
would be the most banal use Of the
United Front policy. The unity of the
proletariat under the leadership of the
Communist party is necessary, but
nevertheless without any coalition
with other parties. Social-democracy
is not a workers party, so that a
United Front with it is impossible.
The speaker is opposed to bloc of
political workers parties, but believes
that United Front policy in the trade
unions and in the shop councils is
applicable. For the incorrect applica-
ton Of the United Front policy the
majority of the Fourth Congress and
the Executive Committee as well are
responsible, for they give incorrect
Foundations. The same is true of the
workers government, the formulation
of which by the Fourth Congresses
must be repudiated, as the events in
Saxony have proved.
workers government" is an ILL
chosen synonym for "proletarian die
tstorship." How are the workers to
understand these phrases, if the Con-
gress quarrels so much about their
meaning?
Calls Executive Unstable
The policy of the executive commit
tee is very eclectical, it has tended
now to a right-wing deviation, now to
a leftist deviation. In the face of such
instability, it is applicable that many
cannot follow and that breaches of
discipline occur. The speaker does
not wish to create any leftist faction.
He opposes fusion with the Italian
socialists, is against the formation of
nuclei, against the creation of sympa-
thetic parties. The role of leadership
which the Communist Party of Russia
plays is the best guarantee that the
Comintern will remain revolutionary,
but nevertheless the greatest dangers
of a deviation toward the right are
threatening the Communist Party of
Russia. The world proletariat is more
revolutionary than generally believed,
and, in spite of temporary stagnation,
it will triumph in the spirit of Marx,
Lenin and the Russian revolution.
END of the SESSION.

binations mean a repetition of the
events in Saxony. The Central com.
mittee makes ELECTORAL agreements
with the sociaLdemocrats. Krulikow-
skis mistakes are not mistakes pecu.
liar to himself but simply results OF
the political inactivity to the Central
committee.
In the German and the Russian
questions the Central committee
played a game of hide-and,seek, shifted
from one position to another, con-
cealed the documents from the masses
Of the Party. 1t is not true that in the
agrarian and in the nationalist ques.
tons the opposition rejected the deci-
tsions of the Comintern. The theses
Of the opposition were put before the
Central committee before their publ
cation. The policy of the Polish Party
must be completely changed.
Soelal-pemoeratic Capitalism
Neurath Communist Party of
Czechoslovakia) states, contrary to
the opinion of Trotzky and Radek,
that the period Of consolidation Of
capitalism and social-democracy is not
Of long duration.
The parties must be ready every
day to throw themselves into battle,
for big fights are at hand Smerals
formulation in the German question is
beneath him.
The speaker characterizes the point
Of view of the executive committee in
the German question as completely
correct, and not, as Smeral said, only
80 per cent correct. In the question
Of United Front policy and workers
government he agrees with Zinoviev.
Pepper on Labor Party
Pepper (America) proceeds to say
that the biggest task of the Comintern
consists of the creation of a mass
party in England, for the October de-
feat in Germany and the Macdonald
government have shifted the dead
weight to England. The analysis OF
the Labor party is at the present time
an international duty. In England,
America, South Africa Australia and
Canada the foundations of political
mass parties were laid through the
trade unions, and not trade unions
through political mass parties, as in
Europe. Small political parties, like
the Independent Labor Party in Eng
land and the Workers party in Amer
lea, have succeeded in capturing the
Labor parties. In America the work.
ing masses must be separated from
the bourgeois parties. The Farmer
Labor party binds workers and farm.
ers together, the situation is extremely
chaotic, so that solution of the Amer
ican problem is difficult. The speaker
hopes that events will prove that the
decision of the Executive committee is
right. The speaker believes that Com
munists must enter into the Labor
Party, and that they can keep their
right to criticize freely and will criti-
CHE freely. It is quite another ques.
ton, II the Communist parties as such
should remain always in the Labor
Party. Because the popularity OF the
Labor Party is growing, the English
Communist Party must stay in the
Labor Party, there. finally. to go over
to the opposition. The Fifth Congress
must lay down the law concerning
Labor Party tactics, for the Labor
Party presents the specific application
of the Uniter Front policy for large
part Of the world and opens the way
for the correct method of Bolshevizing
whole continents.

RuIgarian AsrarIan DIfIeuItIss

Kolarow (Bulgaria) is of the opin.
ion that Radek tried to Justify the
defeat of the Bulgarian party because
Of its non-political difficulties. The
justification is unnecessary, for the
Bulgarian Party itself recognizes its
mistakes. On the basis Of detailed
writings concerning the events of June
and of September, the speaker prove.
that the chief mistake was neglect OF
the peasant problem. In agricultural
countries the Party must apply the
United Front policy from below and
from above; it must itself approach
the political parties of the peasantry
so that coalition government can be
prevented.

French Elections

Lensky Urance) claims that the
French elections have been incor-
rectly interpreted by Radek for Radek
is reckoning with only the number of
Communist votes cast, but is not con-
sidering the source OF these votes.
The correct tactics of the Communist
Party of France captured the votes of
the best workmen OF Paris. Passing
to the Polish Party, the speaker states
that nowhere during the events of
October did the Polish Party stand
firmly on its own feet with the excep-
ton Of Upper Silesia, where the left
wing directed the action. 1t is mad
missibIe to Krajewski to exonerate
himself from blame as far as the city
organizations are concerned. The
Central committee is fully responsible
for opportunistic errors and right-wing
deviations. The point of view OF the
Polish Central Committee in the ques.
ton of workers government is abso-
lutely wrong for parliamentarian com

CHAPTER V
RoOsevelt's Crowded at Nairobi

Nairobi had been in the throes Of
great excitement and anticipation
for 1.-Two weeks. for the news had
spread that Theodore Roosevelt wac
to spend a week there before pro-
ceeding on his hunting expedition
through the thirst-land to the Sotik
country.
The reception given at Govern
ment House by Sir Frederick and
Lady Jackson in honor of Colonel
Roosevelt was an interesting affair
TO the onlooker. The guests passed
in a seemingly ~never-ending stream
before Colonel Roosevelt, shook
hands and passed IN.
One old South African turned to
me suddenly. and said with great
emphasis by Jove! I wish he was
governor here. Teddy Roosevelt
would soon make something Of this
country, and suppress all this official
settler trouble. There stands a real
man.
Meanwhile. the introductions had
come to an end and Colonel Roosa-
welt and Kermit had an opportunity
to make better acquaintance with
many of the interesting types pres
ent. They mixed freely with the

ride out on to the plains.
We were soon approaching the
game, and here the party broke up
according to pre-arrangement. While
Colonel Roosevelt and "R. j." rode
off across the plains in the direction
Of where the latter had marked down
the big vildebeeste bull, Kermit and

and scare up some wart-hogs. Heat
ley and Dawson dismounted and sat
down on a small hillock to watch the
progress OF the two hunts.
Kermit and I soon put up a fine
wart-hog SOW, which looked to pos
sess exceptionally large tusks. 1
suggested to him that we should
tide it down from on horseback,
even as lions had been ridden down
with revolvers by some OF the old
timers in Africa. The idea caught
Kermit's imagination.
He was a boy of few words, but
swift action. Setting spurs to his
pony, he was quickly speeding
across the rolling plains in hot pur-
suit Of Mrs. Pig" My Indifferent
pony was left hopelessly behind.
Kermit proved to be a si~ngulariy
fine rider, and an excellent shot with
a rihe-eVen from the saddle. For
a mile or more, the SOW managed
to hold her own, and Kermit was
unable to get at close enough range
to make sure of killing. Then, I
saw him suddenly drop the reins on
his pOny's neck, and fire at the wart-
hog from his hip as he raced along
side. The shot went home and the
pig rolled over. 1t vas quite dead
when we reached it.
We rode about the plains for some
time, but did not put up any more
wart-hogs. AS we could see that
some porters had retrieved the kill,
and were carrying 1t back to camp,

we sat down to watch him.
There we're large quantities OF

see a fine bull, which appeared to be
the objective. But the old fellow

The last important link in the

fantastic shapes in the darkness.
Then ones thoughts wander back
over the happenings of the day and
farther back over the adventurous
incidents of other days Of hunting
and one drinks to the dregs OF the
cup Of all that Is very best in life.
At Dawson's insistence Colonel
Roosevelt told OF a preceding days

Il vas in good hands with Pease,"
commenced Colonel Roosevelt. He
knew every likely place for lions in
all the ne:Ghborhood. Our first lions
were two large cubs. as big as mas
tiffs. They were found In some
bushes near a dry w-atercourse. 1
could not see them properly. and
thought they were full-grown beasts.
I fired at what 1 could see; and
then Kermit fired also at a point
where the bushes were disturbed.
Then they broke over. Each was
badly wounded and so we finished
them off"
Tell them about the two big
lions we got later on that afternoon,

Roosevelt continued. land they

hit one Of them, a big, maneless
fellow, and brought him down with
his hind quarters dragging. He en-
deaVored to face us, with his sav-
age jaws wide open and growing
fiercely. Kermit and I fired into
his chest, and he died Immediately.
The other was galloping across the
plains, SO we mounted and chased
him. Finally, the lion halted and
stood at bay, facing us. The grass
was too long to see him properly
after I dismounted."
And my horse would not let me
shoot" disgustedly exclaimed 'Ker-
NIT.
That's sou agreed his father; and
then he continued his story. II ex-
rected the lion to charge any min

f1ercely: but I still could not e him

aim. Suddenly, he turned toward
me-and 1 got my chance. I fired
and the lion went down with his
fOre-feet in the air. But he re-
covered instantly, and faced me once
more. 1 sent another bullet into his
shoulders, and 1t broke his back.
That made four lions is one after
noon!"
There was a prolonged silence,
broken only by the distant roar of a
lion hunting in TIE moonlight, after
the colonel ceased talking.
Dawson was the first to speak.
What about the other lions.
