The c. P. S. u. and the Opposition Block

A FEW words on the peasantry
"A problem. There are some com
rades who imagine the differentiation
among the peasants to have already
reached such a point that the problem
of the medium farmer practically ex-
lists no longer. Unfortunately our
statistics fail to give us the required
information here. We have no figures
showing the present differentiation, or
it's progress Of late. Still l should
like to make a general observation on
point which in my opinion can and
must be accorded attention. If you
look at any capitalist country, even
capitalist country developing with
tempestuous rapidity on capitalist
lines, we Marxists-Leninists recog-
nize (and Lenin himself would have
recognized) that the solid mass of the
medium peasantry cannot be changed
within a few years; it can be hollow
ed out by the current of capitalist
development, but the process will be
much slower here than in the indus
trial class, where the middle class, the
medium city bourgeoisie, is forced out
of existence much more quickly.
A ND if this is the case in CAPT
L \ talist country and under capitalist
rule, whore the whole mechanics of
capitalist society drift forward at the
speed prescribed by the maximum
speed at which the middle peasantry
is decomposed and the differentiation
of the peasantry accomplished, it is
much more the case in the union,
where the naturalization of the land
has rendered a rapid differentiation
impossible in any case. Lenin en-
phasized this frequently. 1 may even
refer to that speech Of Lenin's which
was recorded for the gramophone,
and sent to all the villages and towns
of the Soviet Union as one of the
most important and popular speeches
ever made by Lenin on the peasant
question. This speech dealt directly
with the naturalization of the land,
and with the Importance of the mid
die stratum of peasantry in connection
with this. Thus, whatever may be
asserted on the subject, we cannot
conclude that any very great change
has taken place with regard to the
differentiation of the various strata of
Deasantry during the past wo years.
1t is impossible. (To Be Continued

Urge All Aid to the British Coal Miners

TT is the duty of the British working

from the blows of British capitalism
and the conservative government

THE support for the miners must

be made up of collections from the

support of the British miners by the
working class of the Soviet Union
must serve as an example to the
workers of all other countries.

TN the present case: What is the
L number of undertakings yielding
this profit of 319 to $50 million rou-
bles? There are S23,S55 such under
takings. If we assume that it costs
about so roubles monthly to maintain
a family (here of course / may be
greatly in error, but it is an error
which can be easily corrected on one
side or the other), this means a sum
Of about 1000 roubles yearly. Thus
1923 million roubles are consumed, and
these 323 millions of consumed"
roubles must be deducted from the
400 millions of the gross profits, if
we are to reach the actual accumu-
lation fund of the private capitalists,
This sum cannot therefore be com
pared for a moment with those figures
expressing the net profits of our in
dustry. When we calculate the net
profits of our industry, we reckon our
accumulation fund only, that is, the.
sums which can be employed for fur
Their expanding industry; we do not
calculate the costs of maintenance of
the technical staff, of the requisite ap-
Daratus, etc. But as soon as private
capital is concerned, then the accumu-.
ation fund, that is the net profit
which can be employed for enlarging
the undertaking, is merged in the
gross profits. This one correction
alone suffices to throw quite another
light on the actual comparative forces.

LETHEN the general council of the
w British Trade Union Congress
throttled the general strike on the
18th of May, the British miners whose
spirit had not been broken, declared,
that they would continue the strug-
gle They have kept their word, and
they are fighting on, altho they are
opposed by a united front of the cum
ming British bourgeoisie and all its
conscious and unconscious iackeys.
The last few weeks have proved
themselves to be extremely critical
for the striking miners. In order to
defeat them the way was cleared for
entry of the churchmen with their
sweet speeches oozing with brother
lyness and love. The object of this
cunning move on the part of the
churchmen is clear. They wish to
pursuade the miners to accept the
same program of wage reductions
against which the miners have con
sistently fought.
THE ruling class of Great Britain
failed to break the miners in an
open struggle, ii was therefore the
turn of the princes of the church to
try their hand and to succeed with
strategy where the government fail
ed with force.
The leaders of the miners gave
way. They recommended the miners
to accept the memorandum of the
bishops altho the latter is nothing but
IN attempt to break the united front
Of the miners. The miners them
selves, however, have seen thru the
swindle and given a clear and unmis-
taxable answer to the temptations Of
he holy church, and to the attempts
Of their leaders to abandon their ORR
ginal program.

The general council pursued fruit

Washington. April P)-The state department has decided to stop issu- ing the old style engraved passports and within the next month or so will publish neatly printed substitute of vest pocket dimensions.
 Underlying the change Of style arc two chief factors, safety and econo- my.
 Departmental officers expect the new form to give the government absolute protection from counterfeit products, source of constant wor- ry. Then too. they say, the govern ment will save much of tho expense that went with the production of the engraved parchment, and by using les5 expensive paper.
 As further step in the direction of economy, the new passport will be embossed and sealed in colors by machinery rather than by hand. To insure safety from counterfeit. ed passports, the department plans to change the form from time tc lime, 10 publish them on a specially prepared paper and to use a distinc'
