MIX HAIL VAS SILIEvITC H
Az FRUNzE was born in 1885, at
Pischpek, the chief town of the dis
trict of Semirechinsk (Republic of
Turkestan.) His father, a Russian
Moldov, was a peasant from the dis
trict of zakharieysk, in the govern
ment of Odessa; his mother was a
peasant from Voronesh. After his
father finished his term of military
service in Turkestan, he becAme a
hospital attendant in the municipal
service.
Frunze began his studies in pri-
mary school, subsequently entering
the college of Vierny (now Almata)
where he proved an excellent student.
His father having died, leaving the
family in poor circumstances, the
young Mikhail at the age of twelve
took to giving private lessons as
means of livelihood
Entering the Polytechnic Institute
of st. Petersburg (now Leningrad) in
1904, Frunze began to take part in
the revolutionary movement, working
first in the student circles, then in the
workers circles, as a social-democrat
He took part in the November demon
STATIONS in st. Petersburg, which led
to his arrest and subsequent expul-
sion from the capital
A T the~beginning of 1905, Frunze
a worked in Moscow, then in the
1vanovo- Voznessensk factory in Vladi
mir. During the party split into men
sheviks and Bolsheviks, Mikhail de-
liberately took the side of the Lenin-
lists. In December, 1905, he took part
in the Instruction at Moscow. In
1906. as a delegate from the party
committee of Voznessensk, he partici-
pated in the Third and Fourth Con-
crosses of the party at Stockholm.
In 1907, he was arrested at Chovia,
where he had been working under the
name of Arsene, and sentenced to a

on Koltchak's troops the first defeat,
which led to decisive revival in our
position upon the oriental front Dur
ing the advance he was wounded by
an anti-craft bomb AT the end Of
June, 1919, Comrade Mikhail was APP
pointed to be commander of the
whole eastern front With the ad-
vance Of our troops Of the oriental
divisions towards the Siberian and
Turkestan fronts, he was then APP

beral alike), who regard 'Marxism as
a kind of harmful sect" 1t is i'm
possible to expect them to take up
any other attitude, for there can be
no impartial" social science in a
state of society based on class war
fare. Both official and liberal science
seek by one means or another to de-
fend wage slavery, while Marxism de-
clares ruthless war against THIS slav-
cry. To expect impartial science in a
state of society based on wage slav-
cry, is as naively foolish as to expect
impartiality from factory owners in
the question of whether it would not
be advisable to raise the. wages of
the workers by means of reducing the
profits of the capitalists.
But this is not all. The history of
philosophy, and the history of social
science, show with perfect clearness
that there is nothing in Marxism re-
sembling a hard-and-fast stereotyped
teaching, taking its rise in some back
water apart from the main stream of
the evolution of international civiliza-
ton. The direct contrary is the case,
for the genius of Marx consists in the
fact that he replied to questions
which had already been put by the
advanced thought of mankind. His
teaching followed as an immediate
continuation of the teaching of the
greatest representatives of philosophy,
Of political economy and of socialism.

The philosophy of Marxism is mate
rialism. During the whole course of
the more recent history of Europe,
and especially in France at the end Of
the 18th century, at the time of the
decisive struggle against all the relics
of mediaevalism, and against feud-
alism in institutions and ideas, mater

Condemned to Death; Prison; Escape.
After being tried five times in con-

two verdicts declared for the death
penalty, Frunze was finally condemn

labor. He served five and half years
in the central prison of Vladimir,
then for two years in the prison of
Nikolaev, and finally in the Alexan-

escaping, and towards the end of
1915, turned up at Chita under the
illegal name Of Vassilenko. Here he
collaborated on the editorial staff Of
the Bolshevik weekly, The Oriental

escaped into European Russia, where,
under the name of Mikhailov, he en-

SANDER it, and have defended every
imaginable variety of philosophical
idealism, invariably ending in the
defense or support of religion.
Marx and Engels defended philoso-
phical materialism with the utmost
energy, and were never weary of EN-
phasising the fundamental incorrect
ness of any deviation from this prin-
ciple. Their views are stated with
clarity and detail in Engels' works:
Ludwig Feuerbach" and "Antiduhr-
ung," books which--like the Com
munist Manifesto"-are among the
text books of every class conscious
worker. 4
But Marx did not stop at the mate
rialism of the 18th century; ne car
ried philosophy further He enriched
it with the result of classic German
philosophy, especially that of Hegels
system, which again led to the mater
ialism of Feuerbach. !. The most i'm
portant Of these results is to be found
in dialectics, that is, in the doctrine
of evolution in its completest and
deepest aspect, free from one-side-
ness; in the theory of the relatively
OF human knowledge, mirroring for us
the amending development or matter.
The latest discoveries of natural
science radium, electrones, trans
mutation of chemical elements-have
afforded a brilliant confirmation Of
Marx dialecticaI materiaIism as op-
posed to the teaching of bourgeois
philosophers, with their new" retreats
into old and decaying idealism.
In deepening and developing philo-
sophical materialism, Marx carried it
through to its ultimate end, and
extended his knowledge of nature to
knowledge Of human society.
The historical materialism of Marx
has proved to be the greatest achiev-
ement of scientific thought. The chaos
and arbitrariness which had hitherto
prevailed in the conception of history
and politics have been replaced by
an astonishingly consistent and we'll
constructed scientific theory, show
ing how the growth OF productive
forces causes one system of social life
to develop into another and higher
system-how, for instance, capitalism
grows out Of feudalism.
