Freiberger called for cheers for the
international unity of the working
class in which the delegation and the
huge meeting Joined with enthusiasm
Old Russian Worker Thanks Germans.
A Putilov worker, Beloussov, who
had worked for so years in the same
factory, then thanked the German
workers for their visit to the Soviet
Union. A delegate from Hanover
then handed a flag emblazoned with
the inscription Prepared for the
struggled" to the Putilov workers.
The meeting adopted unanimously
the following resolution:
1.-The full meeting of the personnel
Of the Putilov works in the presence
of the German delegation, expresses
its thanks to the German proletariat
for its fraternal attitude to the Rus
sian working class and in particular
to the Putilov workers.
viii Aid Unity.
'It regards the arrival of the Ger
man delegation as an important step
on the way to the victory of the united
front of the working class of the world
against opportunism and reformism,
which attempt to weaken the working
class in it's struggles against capital
ism by a policy of disruption.
1--WE are convinced that the dele
gates of the German workers will rec
ognize after they have seen the sue
cess Of our struggle for Communism,
that the cause of the Russian working
class is a Just cause.
1.-THE international bourgeoisie
which lost the possibility of exploiting
he Russian working class after the
october revolution, has carried on
since October hand in hand with the
leaders of the Second International, a
bitter and determined struggle against
the dictatorship of the proletariai
with weapons and calumnies, with the
fabrication of documents, with treach-
cry and provocatien.
Glass Traitors Exposed.
Nevertheless, all their hopes have
been in vain. For the working masses
of Europe have taken the cause of
unity into their own hands and they
now wish to learn for themselves the
truth of the situation in the Soviet
Union. And the working class with
out the slightest doubt will be able
to establish the truth about the prole-
tartan revolution.
''We are prepared by every possible
means to make the study of the Ger
man delegation of our conditions
easy. In particular we would be thank
full to our German comrades if they
would study the conditions in our
works in order to prove how far the
leaders of the social democracy and
the Vorwaerts were RICH. when they
calumnied the Putilov workers.
German class comrdaes, tell the
workers of all countries honestly the
truth about the economic and political
situation in the Soviet Union!
Long live the united front of the
international working class move
ment!
Long live the alliance of the work
ing classes of Germany and the Soviet
Union!"

The proceedings of the fifth session
are given below:
With regard to Kindermann, Ditt-
mar says that the terrorist aims of
the expedition to Russia we're clearly
dealt with in their first discussion al
so. Already then Wolscht was in
troduced to Dittmar as one aware OF
the secret aims of the expedition. The
witness Fink, at present in Moscow,
took part in this first discussion as
the advisor of the Berlin o. c.
"Interested' in Terror
Kinderman denies now as before
to have had any terrorist intent, he
admits however, the order of the
meetings as given by Dittmar.
Wolscht declares that he has never
had any discussion together with Kin
dermann and Dittmar. Kindermann
stresses that he has never interested
himself in terror, whereupon the pros
ecutor reminds him of his letter to

In this moment, when imperialism has

Visits Break Blockade Of Lies.
The Leningrad working class be-
lieves firmly that the workers OF the
fraternal delegations have also com.
menced this way to unity. BY your
arrival in the Soviet Union you win
destroy the last ring OF the blockade,

'The capitalists prevent the estab-

The whole personnel Of the Putilov
works waited for the German dele
cation in front Of the works. The
delegation divided itself into six
groups. After several hours examina-
ton Of the smelling shops and after
discussions with the workers, a meet
ing took place in the courtyard in
which the whole 10000 Putilov work
ers took part.
81 Years a Manuel Worker.
The members of the delegation,
Freiberger, Schaudt and LANCE, were
elected into the presidium, the last
named as the oldest workers with 81
years of physical work behind him.
The chairman of the shop council
Of the Putilov works, Matjuchin,
greeted the delegation and declared
that previously the works had only
been visited by high foreign trade
union officials and that the Putilov
workers valued the visit of the Ger
man workers themselves exceedingly.
The German comrades should prove
for themselves on the spot how much
was true of the lies of the Vorwaerts
about the Putilov workers, for these
workers who stood in the front ranks
of the revolution already in the
eighties of the previous century, were
not prepared to allow such calumnies
to be spread about them.
Offenhagen greeted the Putilov
workers in the name of the Krupp
workers and said:
No Place on Earth Like Russia.
I'VE could not have found a moro
fraternal greeting in any part Of the
world outside of the country of work
ers. Today we have seen you at work.
In all other countries work is tor
ture because the workers know that
they are only working for the profit
of the capitalists. You, however, are
working for yourselves and regard the
work as your duty, you know that
the fruits of your labor will go only
to the benefit of the workers state"

birth of the delegation, the material
and moral difficulties which had to be
overcome. Another speaker declared
that several members Of the delega-
ton had already received notice of
dismissal from their jobs in Germany,
whereupon the Putilov workers shout
ed that they would be proud if the
dismissed workers would work with
them.
Freiberger declared that the very
first examination of the shops had
destroyed the wild lies and the
calumnies about the condition of la
Dor and production in Soviet Russia.
He declarde further, that only an
enemy of the working class could fail
to recognize the heroism of the
working class could fail to recognize
the heroism of the Putilov workers
who, after the civil war in which they
themselves had taken part, succeeded
despite the blockade, despite the diff
ficulties and the shortage, from their
own strength without any outside as
sistance, in re-establishing huge I'M
dertaking inside three years.

Saturday the German workers. dele
cation visited the LenIngrad trade
union council, the industrial admInIs-
tratlon Of the northeast district and
various cultural institutions. The poll
tlcaI commission examined the aetIv-
tiles Of the party organizations.
In the industrial administration the
delegates examined the statistical ma
terlaI upon the rise Of production and
the number Of workers engaged In
Lenirgrad industry. They put various
questions upon the relations between
the economic organs and the trade
unions, upon the problems Of export
and import and the utilization of for
eign capital, etc. Many Of the dele
gates were present at sessions of the
various trade union sections, and
studied the collective agreements and
tariffs.
In the evening a session of the En-
larged Plenum of the Leningrad trade
union council took place in the pres
ence of the German and Swedish
workers delegations. The chairman
of the German delegation. Freiberger,
greeted the Swedish delegation and

ton, Tschilbum presented the Lenin-
grad trade union council with ban
ner emblazoned: From the Swedish
workers to the revolutionary fighters

Pledges Defense Of Soviet Union.
A social democratic member of the
German delegation, Lehner, thanked
the Russian comrades for their readi-
ness to assist and declared that there
had been no case in which information
had been refused or in which the dele
gates had been prevented from study
ingsconditions.
I'VE leave Leningrad," declared
Lehner. with the firm conviction
that the Leningrad proletariat has
accomplished tremendous things and
that the German workers have been
deceived shamelessly in relation to
the conditions in the Soviet Union
by the bourgeois press.
I'VE assure you that should an at
tack be made upon the Soviet Union,
there is no shop in Germany which
would not spring to the defense of
your working class country. Whoever
seizes Soviet Russia by the throat,
will break his own neck in conse-
quence."
Swedish Socialist Praises Russ
Workers.
In the name of the social democrat
ic fraction of the Swedish workers
delegation Tschelman declared that
one must learn from the Russian pro-
letariat and that without sharing in
Communist opinion, he joined in the
revolutionary enthusiasm of the Len
ingrad working class.
Other members of both delegations
expressed without distinction of poll
teal or trade union tendencies, their
recognition of the Leningrad working
class and the will for international
working class unity.
