These addenda touch on social con-
ditions, municipal economy, national
education and health.
Another feature which deserves
mention is the friendly spirit existing
between the non-party and party cleo
tors, which has created an atmosphere
of unanimity and has eliminated all
antagonism.
THE non-party masses have had
every opportunity during the years
of Soviet government to realize that
the Russian Communist. Party is the
only true champion of the workers
and that it is due to its guidance that
the Union of Soviet Republics has
grown in strength politically and econ
omically.
The rapid development Of the re-
construction of the municipal economy
of Moscow and for the gubernias,
which compares favourably with the
past, shows to the workers of Moscow
better than anything else the efficiency
of the party as a guide and LEADER
HENCE, the elections show that the
II non-party masses have accepted
the leadership of the Russian Commun-
list Party-the vanguard of the work
ing class.
The Moscow Soviet which has all
these years set the example to the
Soviet of other towns, will in its pres
ent composition work no doubt as
energetically as before in the interests
Of the working class population, which.
having in the Soviets representatives
Of all its groups, will be able to take
an active part in the work connected
with the further development Of muni-
cipal economy and with the improve
ment of social conditions.

noes Ferdinand Lassalle belong to
the ranks OF great Communists
from Marx to Lenin? 1t is true that
Lassalle who was by seven years the
younger, called himself Marx disci-
pie, looked up to Marx as the leader
of the party and earnestly sought his
friendship; nevertheless Lassalle was
never Marxist, either in his funda-
mental philosophical attitude or in his
political tactics.
This became glaringly evident on.
various occasions, and only Lassalle's
early death prevented Marx and En-
gels from publicly disowning him dur
ing his lifetime, and melting out politi-
cal justice to him as to Proudhon
or Bakunin. Later on, Marx, in a
pitiless way, ran down Lassalle in a
letter to Kugelmann (1S65) and, in
the marginal notes to the Gotha pro-
gram, the program for an alliance
between the Bebel-Liebknecht group
at Eisenach and Lassalle's partisans
(1S75), he smashed the essential
points of LassalIe's theory into smith
Greens.
THE leaders of social democracy,
4 which pretend to be Marxist, in
deed concealed both condemnations
from the mass of their members for
many years The marginal notes were
only published 16years later, the let
ter to Kugelmann II years after the
other letters had been printed.
Even in the Marx-Engels CORE
spondence certain very harsh express
sions against Lassalle seem to have
been suppressed by the publisher.
This is how the socialist party of Ger
many guards against any wrong being
done to it's party saint Lassalle. AS
matter of fact, the socialist party OF
Germany has much more in common
with Lassalle than with Marx, altho
now it is far behind Lassalle in "prac-
tical politics" and can no longer claim
to be heir to his views, for he was at
least always bitter opponent of the
bourgeois party.
r ASSALLE was no doubt an emf
IL nent personality, man of genius.
Possessed of titanic ambition, of an
extraordinary passion for work, of
quick intellectual grasp, a clever and
witty writer, one of the greatest ora
tors of history-all qualities which
made Lassalle prominent in the bar
rem field of the intellectual life OF
the day in Germany, it is easy to I'M
derstand how he must have struck
IL around him, how such extraordin.
.ry homage and admiration was paid

him. The greater men with whom he
might have been compared, Marx and
Engels, had been abroad since 1849,
and were thus remote from Lassalle.
Lassalle had remained In Germany as
the last of the Mohicans of the Com
munist revolutionaries. No wonder
that the self-consciousness which
characterized him even in his youth
gradually assumed dimensions which
led to painful conflicts and thus modi-
fed even his view of life in way
which made it still more difficult for
him to accept the materialistic con-
ception of history. An idealistic con-
ception of history was more in keep
ling with his mental attitude, one that
regards the great personality as the
bearer and manifestation of the spirit
Of his time and, in certain sense,
makes history
"You see here the remarkable
spectacle of an agitation which has
seized hold Of the masses, which has
reused a whole nation to take stand
passionately on one side or the 9TH
er-alI this emanatng from the con-
science Of single man." speech
at the Dusseldorf trial, 1861
THUS Lassalle could, on one occa-
4 sion (186O) write to Marx: Hatred
in the masses can accomplish any
thing, If only there are five people in
the whole country who possess under
standing ALSO" This is Nietzschean-
ism which defies all socialism and
shows a complete want of understand
ing of the significance and the nature
of a revolutionary party" Lassalle
is possessed by an 'ideologism" as
Marx once called (which constantly
limits his social discernment. This
had the most serious consequences in
his idealistic worship of the state,
and in this connection led to the worst
derailments in practical politics.
r ASSALLE cannot boast of COM
Apletely uniform philosophical and
political view of life. He was an
eclectic In the grand style, who today
was under the spell of Marx, tomor-
row under that of Rodbertus, but was
never free from that of Hegel
In letter to Marx, Lassalle refers to
Hege's conception of history, ito
which l subscribe in all essentials .
The spirit, the spirit of the people,
expresses itself in history, embodies
itself in the moral community, the
state. On one occasion, Lassalle re-
fers to science as "a neutral territory,
sanctuary which must on no ac-
count be devastated by the storm of
political hatred" 1t seems that the
state is to Lassalle almost another
such neutral territory"

MOSCOW, (By Mail) There is con-
1N1 siderable animation now in this
city in connection with the elections
to the Moscow Soviet and to the dis
trict Soviets.
The streets are full of groups of
electors who after the conclusion Of
the election meeting demonstrate with
banners and posters bearing various
devices in front of the Moscow Soviet
building in the Soviet Square to cheer
the representatives Of the proletarian
power.
The present elections stand out be-
cause of the exceptionally large num-
Der of electors participating in them.
The participators are not only those
who are organized in trade unions and
not only manual and Office workers
employed in enterprises and institu-
tons, but also groups of unorganized
workers.
HOUSEWIVES, persons engaged in
IL home industries, carmen and cab
men, doctors, etc, in fact groups
hitherto outside the political and So
cial life, but which, having realized the
Importance of the role Of the Soviets
in the construction of the new state
and the meaning of the participation
Of the workers lin the construction of
the new life, felt impelled to take an
active part in such construction, and
to nominate their own candidate to
the Soviets.
The Moscow Soviets show better
than anything else the superiority OF
the Soviet system and the full value
of the ACHIEVEMENTS Of the October
revolution. This system has abolished
the property and any other special
qualification and has given the right
to vote to all those who work.
THOSE who work and gain their
l. means Of existence without ex-
plotting others have now the right to
elect and to be, elected to the Soviets,
and to participate in the government
Of the state. There is no other quail
iication.
The election figures to hand show
that 95 per cent of the workers took
part in the Moscow elections.
BY its large scale election campaign
the Moscow Soviet has brought about
the participation Of large number Of
non.party persons in the elections, and
1t has shown from the beginning how
keen non-party workers are to do their
duty as citizens.
IN the Moscow districts, about 80 per
4 cent OF the candidates elected to
the Soviets are non-party. AS COM
pared with last year, the number Of
women elected to the Soviets has also
very much increased.
A characteristic feature of the pres
ent elections, which speaks for the
activity of the masses, is the large
number of addenda to the election pro-
gram OF the candidates to the Soviets.

tons demonstrate to the whole world
what workers government means
and what power and force there is in
the Russian Communist Party which
has the support of enormous numbers
of non-party workers ready at any
time to lay down their lives for the
Soviet government and for the preser-
walton of all the achievements of the
October revolution.
T1OR Soviet power is the slogan of
the present elections.
Long Live the Russian Communist
Party. Such is the desire of all hon

est non-party workers who go home af-
ter the elections echoing these senti-
ments.
Then the election excitement will be
replaced by the everyday work Of the
newly elected Soviet members the
same slogans will guide them in their
endeavor to achieve maximum sue
cesses in their work.
The present elections are the clever
est and most convincing demonstra-
ton of the consolidation and the might
of the Soviet power.-A. Prigradov-

Towards Unity

The general council of the Trade Union Congress
of Great Britain, meeting recently in London rati-
fed the decision reached by the Anglo Russian trade
union conference. The decision agreed that joint
effort should be made by the British and Russian
trade unions for unconditional conference be
tween the representatives Of the Amsterdam In
ternational and those of the Russian trade unions,
with a view to forming united International trade
union movement.
The decision also called for the formation of a
Joint advisory council to promote cooperation be
tween the Russian and British movements.
The capitalist press went into Mysteries when
this announcement was made public. Tories
furiously attacked the Russian trade union dele
gates in the house of commons The right wing
leaders in the unions and also the right wing OF
the labor party denounced Purcell and those who
took the initiative from the British side in taking
steps to promote the solidarity of the workers of
all countries That the general council of the Trade
Union Congress has ratified the agreement reached
by the unity committee, is significant 1t proves
that the right wing leaders in Britain have suf-
fered an overwhelming defeat 1t is the most en-.
couraging news that has reached the ears of the
working class of the world for many months.

$3.50 900 ADDED TO STATE
SCHOOL TREASURY

ATLANTA, Ga, Feb. 18-Atlanta' S
school treasury has been enriched with
a State of Georgia warrant Tor that
amount mailed from the office OF the
State Treasurer, Speer, as the largest
single slice of $450,000 school melon.
About IA checks totaling 1888, lou
for 101 rural school systems and 500,
900 for 43 city school systems in the
state were also drawn in the Treas
urer's office upon receipt of warrant
covering them from Governor Clifford
Walker.
Substantially larger sums are to be
available for the 1886 school year
as a result of the radical cut in the
rate of interest on the advance school
warrants sold to the Fourth Nation
al Bank of Atlanta at 3.99 per cent,
i it was stated. The rate for the year
Just closed, handled by another bank
was 5.33 per cent, hence the bid Of
the Fourth National Bank was one OF
| the lowest on record
1t was stated by John F. Ottley pres
ident of the Fourth National Bank OF
Atlanta, which bought the entire issue
of three millions of dollars worth OF
school warrants, that the bank was
enabled to make the low bid as the
purchase was made as an investment
and not for resale, as was the case with
other purchasers in previous years
The fact that one Georgia bank can
handle the entire issue of warrants
! is considered unusual in financial cir
Giles. Steady increase in deposits dur
ing the last few years, thus piling ur
large sum, enabled the Atlanta bank
to make the investment and at the
same time render a service to the
state, the bank officials said.
