THE cross-examination in the trial
of the Central Committee Of the
Communist Party of Bulgaria, which
is accused of having prepared the
September revolution in 1923, has be-
gun before the district court of Sofia.
All the members of the Central Com
mittee as it was constituted at that
time are before the court as accused:
of these, Comrades Blagojew and
Todor Petrov have died, Comrades
Kristo Kabaktschiev, Anton Ivanov,
Nikola Penev, as well as our Com
rade Tina Kirkowa have been in pris-
on for year and a half. 1t has been
communicated to us that one of them,
Comrade Anton Ivanov, has been tor
tured to death in prison in the most
brutal way, and as regards the others,
no one knows whether they are now
in the prisoners dock or have been
murdered. Comrades Georgi Dimi-
troy, Todor Lukanov and Vassil Ko-
larov are out of the country and are
being tried in their absence.
The Central Committee is accused
of having, in 1919, begun working
Systematically towards the overthrow
of the existing order of society in Bull
garia and Of having issued the call to
immediate action in Sept, 1923. Fur.
thermore Georgi Dimitrov and Vassil
kolarov are accused of having direct.
ly taken part in the instruction for
which they have twice been tried and
twice condemned to Is years penal
servitude. The acts of which they
are accused are punishable by penal
servitude for from ten years to life
long duration.
ON September ~, 1923, the White
- Guardist government according to
pre-arranged plan, took action for
the destruction of the Communist
Party and of all mass organizations

ership of Communists, on the pretext
that the party intended to declare an

Peasants Mutual Aid.
IXTHEN there is no nearby credit
w association, the peasants mutual
aid committees may also handle loans,
themselves becoming members OF
more distant credit association. Let
tiers about these mutual aid commit
tees appear constantly in our papers,
and we know they are of all kinds.
One Of the best committees we have
discovered was down in Tsaritsin
province. It's head is Chebotareva, a
peasant woman, who is also a mem
Der of the Central Executive Commit
tee of the Soviet Union. 1t organized
home for 60 orphans and secured
five cows for them. BY starting col
lective of peasant women, it estab-
lished a vegetable plantation and with
this supported the children for a
whole year. It also ploughed and
seeded all the lands of widows and
red soldiers.
This mutual aid committee has
tractor which ploughs first for the
poorest peasants free and then for the
well-to-do peasants for money. With
the money thus received, an energetic
cultural work is carried on. A read
ing hut has been opened, in which are
newspapers, journals and good IL
brary with agricultural literature.
Alas, not all mutual aid committees
are like this. Some work badly, and
in some no one works at all. In some
president cannot be found, because
no peasant will do the work. A sad
and characteristic letter from a peas
ant reports that his mutual aid COM
mittee wants five per cent month for
loan, which means 100 roubles by
next harvest in return for 100 roubles
now. He has heard that there are
mutual aid committees which ask
less, and he wants the address of
one! But this is not a mutual aid
committee, it is a robber bandit
Peasants Must Help Themselves.
ITO take loan, if they give it to you,
4 needs no cleverness. But to take
part in building up credit associa-
tion-that is harder but very neces-
sary. From the workers and peas
ants government help may be and
should be expected, but its means are
small But by uniting all our strength
the peasant himself must help the
peasant.
Every peasant where there is no CO.
operative, must take pains to get one.
Then he must see that his co-opera-
tive, or his producing collective, joins
credit association; or, if there isn't
one near and convenient, he must help
to form one. He must deposit his own
small savings there, even if only by
kopeks, and see that his cooperative
does the same. He must take an ac-
tive interest in its affairs and see that
it elects president who can be trust
ed, and that it's loans are made sound
ly.
Only the united strength of the
workers and peasants government,
and the co-operatives, and the peas
antry itself will bring this difficult and
imDOrtant work IN succesr
