Communism this respect on the point
of principle the Delegation takes of the the
ship the under the direction of the Communist

is complete control not only of the platform

Army obvious that political system based
sumption of such government authority by minority
judged best by results is with these results with the
political philosophy of Russian Communism that these reports
mainly concerned
reading of these reports, however may suggest con-
cuson that probably correct that the by
communists OF the central authority not absolute is
claimed The present tendency be that the Com
munist organization is becoming
Church with an educational function The organs
and the representative system moving rapidly along
that make their central control by caucus in

by those vows This is the same process that
very rapidly took place the that had
originally Communist character
The conclusions arrived he main

body of their fellow countrymen have made had the
same facilities They well that would have been
much better done had the of British Government
