trary with his own eyeslis either a de-
ceiver or deceived. Further, Russia is
ruled by "a small clique" Strong
enough to serve the interests of no

Kautsky!), to treat every class as its
docile tool" "a conspiracy against the
Russian people, against workers and
peasants as we'll as against the intel
lectuals and the remains and begin

self" so that "thel pr0letariat of the
world is hopelessIy prevented from
developing it's full force as long as
Russia is governed by the modern
methods of Bolshevism." Briefly: in
NKautsky's eyes, BolxheUism continues
to exist as an anti-Bolshevist poster.
HAVING painted Bolshevism, Soviet
IL Russia and in the way the Com
munist International in such colors,
Kautsky easily arrives at conclusion.
He who, since 1908 (since the publica-
ton of the Way to Power"l has care
fully avoided being consistent, who
adopted no other attitude towards i'm
perialism. the war, the counter-revo
luton than one Of disgusting quietism,
is for once consistent: Soviet Russia
must be annihiIated! OF course Karl
Marx must eocalled as witness, he
who in the inaugural address" preach
ed war against 'the encroachment of
the barbaric power which has its seat
in st. Petersburg" Soviet govern
ment of course, is a still worse "bar-
barrie power" which indeed mo longer
has its seat in Petrograd but in Mos
COW, further from Europe, nearer to
Tartary." Since the Bolsheviki con-
summated the will of Karl Marx as re-
CARDS czarism, the will of Karl Kaut-
sky as regards the Bolsheviki must be
contaminated FCt
But why is that? Kaatsky examines
in detail how it could be done. The
result of his inquiry is fecklessly con-

leaves no doubt as toowhat he means,
as we shall see. At1first he inquiries

Kautsky Incltes to War.


ok years ago, Kautsky saw a pic
~ ture of Bolshevism; a gorilla with
a knife between its barred teeth. At
that time it was posted up by hun
dreds of thousands at all street cor
ners in Germany, in order to inspire
the German man in the street with
fear of Spartacus, and to prepare him
for the blessings of the Noske regime.
It was published by the Anti-Bolshe-
visit League which was a direct de-
scendant of the National League
against social democracy, but was
then used by Ebert and Scheidemann
as a weapon against the German work
ing class and kept going with govern
ment money (home servicei).
Since Kautsky became childish, this
DOGGY has pursued him in his dreams.
Thousands and thousands of German
proletarians may be slaughtered
even amid the thunder of the guns,
Kautsky will preach alliance with the
Noske party. In Hungary and in Italy
the bIoodiest terror may reign, the
Esthonian and Bulgarian peoples may
be driven to espair-Kautsky will
have no word, no thot left against
blood and terror Tho Germany be
turned into a national penitentiary in
which only the national bands of muir
lderers enjoy the protection of the re-
public, tho Hindenburg mount Ebert's
throne-Kautsky will crow: it is a
joy to live! Tho the whole German
people be enslaved, tho the whole
world be threatened by American trust
capital with plumber, war and subjug-
alton, Kautsky will have but one
aim: Death to the Bolshevikii

tional and Soviet Russia" published

1t ought to be possible to publish the
whole pamphlet so as to expose its
author to the derision and contempt
of the whole world. For it is one huge
tissue of lies, so shameless, that they
need only be pronounced to be ex-
posed as such. There is no recent in
fammatory article against Soviet Rus
STA which is so impudently and stupid
ly mendacious.
If we are to believe Kautsky, the
Russian proletariat is signing under
the heavy yoke of its own party, it
dreams of nothing but liberation from
this yoke, being prepared to sell its
soul to the devil; but again and again
it is routed by machine guns. Further
even now that the civil war is ended
and the Koltchaks, Kaledins, Wrangels
and the boon companions OF the men,

der present capitalist society they

are Drawer and saner than that. They
see that the real in themselves is
a longing for brotherhood, not for

not for capitalism. They try to make
their dreams come true. Their plays

their plays, paintings, poems, musical

HERE is typical bourgeois drama;
L L it bears all the ear-marks of bour-
geois theology; and it has met and is
meeting the approval of bourgeois
playgoers in London, New York, Los
Angeles, San Francisco and other
towns and cities of the capitalist
world. Needless to say it hasn't
struck Moscow, nor is it likely to from
present accounts.
Let us see what its peculiar merits
CD are, that it should meet with such
wide approval from those who form
the backbone of theater audiences.
The upper class patronizes grand op-
era, and dramas with stars in 'em of
the first water; very seldom does it
lower itself by showing its royal pres
ence at a common theatrical perform
ance. Royalty now means the new
rich, the war profiteers, and the bene-
ficiaries of the trusts and monopolies.
WTE sat and sweltered in the gallery,
w while the actors melted in the
Congo. 1t was a mercurial martyr
dom all around. The plot of the drama
hinged on the fact that the fresh
young fellows sent out from England
by the. Rubber Co. failed to get prop
erly acclimatized. They must get
their quota of rubber out and on board
ship if they had to kill every niger"
within hundred miles. Ordinarily
this would prove fascinating sport to
the scions of English aristocracy, but
the tropical heat made sport too
much like work. OF course it would
never do for an Englishman in Africa
to lower. himself by working, so after
he had murdered couple hundred
"niggers" or so he usually settled
down to watchful waiting. to brandy
and soda, and to mama palavering."
He rather let the Rubber Co.'S inter-
ests go hang This heraled the end:
for without rubber the world can't
roll. And so he sickened and another
scion came to take his place and so
on, ad infinitum, and ad nauseam.
Generally the returning hero was
too sick or to drunk to board the boat
Of his own accord and had to be car
ried on as luggage. He returned as

no damages for breakage en- route.
Of course, as you can see, the rest
- of tn. plot doesn't matter; but the
crux Of the thing hinges on the fas-
cinating expression, NANNY pa
laver" This seems TO promise exotic
and erotic excitement to the faded
sex tastes of the morbid members
OF the bourgeoisie, who form the bulk
OF the audiences: ages from Is to %.
with a sprinkling Of more mature and
more debauched auditors.
This term simply means mating
with a negress during the term of the
exile or for part time. Or mating

boldly into the fight fearing no pun
shments, serving intrepidly the cause
of the revolution. Such life does
not know any rest.
Comrade Weinberger was born in
1908. He was only Is years old,
when the proietarian revolution was
victorious in Hungary and then he
was already an active worker in the
youth movement. After the revolu-
ton he fled abroad. However, his en-
ergy during the emigration period has
grown up and, being only Is years
old, he came back to Hungary and
proceeded then to illegal party activ-
ity. In 1921 he was arrested and SEN
fenced to 10 years penal imprison-
ment During his trial Comrade Vein
berger, in spite of heavy penalty
threatening him, shouted loudly
Long live the international revolu-
toni" His steadfastness won him
the sympathies Of the other comrades
and especially of the young proletar-
ians who saw in him representa-
tives Of their strong, fighting disposi-
ton, not the least weakened by the
horrible terror.
Thru the efforts of the Soviet gov
eminent he was set free from the
Hungarian prison. He went to Russia
in order to acquire knowledge in the
school of the Russian Communist
Party and Russian Youth League. He
proved to be good disciple; the
great lesson of the Russian revolu-
ton and the experience of the Rus.

For what in one word is the goal
pointed in White Cargo? Getting
rich! That is what actuates the whole
bunch. All go to the Congo as gold
seekers. Not all succeed. That is in
evitable under capitalism, where
trusts and concessions gobble up all
the opportunities, leaving only the
barest pickings to the individual. He
gets the small, soul-wrecking, mean
and contemplate jobs. The jobs where
the only consultations are whiskeys
and mammies.
TT is told in Frank Shay's interest
4 ing article in the National Geo
graphic Magazine for last February
that it is customary for the whites
marooned in tropical Africa to mar
ry'' Negresses. They make no bones
about it. They consort openly with
them and point out humorously their
half-breed children, as they meet
them at the wharfs along the river.
Livingston and Stanley tell the same
story In fact Stanley was bereft of
many of his men thru their desertion
to the black females along his route.
A white man who has been nursed in
infancy by a black mother acquires
Negro complex and reverts natural
ly to black consortium. That is one
of the skeletons in the closet of our
feudal southern society. Not that it
matters much to sociological science;
for miscegenation itself is an agent of
progress. The contemplate attitude
of whites towards their black off
spring hurts the worst. Christian peo-
pie are cruel enough towards white
bastards; to black ones they are
merciless. ss

We can't trust the "intellectuais."
They take on the color OF their en-

long enough. Artists alone are the
ones who try to make their dreams
come true. Dreams are what YOU
make them; If you look forward to
a better society and work for its
realization, your dreams will accom-
pany your struggle.
For Communism is the goal OF man

The dreams OF. Pletnev in the pro
letcult theatres of Moscow are almost
the only ones of our times which try
faithfully to realize that goal Others
will soon follow.
