Kamaneff Speaks.
In his speech, Kameneff Of the op-
position dwelt on the fright drift" in
the Communist Party Of the Soviet
Union and asserted that this right
drift was manifesting itself in eulo-
gizing the new economic policy in
masking the class struggle, in under
estimating the technical economic
backwardness of the country, in esti-
mating the role and the Importance Of
the peasantry, and in negating the
class struggle for the distribution OF
the national income that is typical Of
the actual period of the construction
OF socialism in the U. S. s. r. The
international right drift was manifest
ed in the attitude towards the Anglo
Russian committee, in the illusion
that 1t could eventually be created as
center Of struggle against inter-
vention. The speaker contended that
the various aspects Of the right drift
were bound up with the theory OF So
cialism in one country. We must face
the difficulties of, the transition pc
Rod; the soeialistic construction Of
the U. S. S. r. is possible but it must
be with the help of the proletarian re-
volutions Of other countries.
The speaker attempted to refute
the charges against the opposition:
the hegemony OF Troskyism, the at
tempt to create new party, and the
question of practical price policy. He
contended that the opposition never
defended Trotskyism in 80 far as
Tratskyism differed from Leninism;
the theory of permanent revolution,
the peasant question, etc. Kameneff
claimed that the opposition was TAX
ing the initiative of restoring feminist
teachings in the party; he contended
that some comrades were deviating
most seriously from Leninism.
Opposition Summed Up.
Summing up the creed of the oppo-
sition, Kameneff stated: We demand
struggle against the right as well as
the left tendencies; we must give the
proletariat the outlook Of world re.
volution, an outlook that will not curb
the energy and enthusiasm Of the
proletariat The consolidation of the
workers and peasants alliance is i'm
possible without a definite pace of in
naturalization. We must raise the
share OF the working class in the ma
tional income, that is, raise wages; we
must look upon the poor .peasantry as
the sole firm support of the proletar-
IAN revolution.
The opposition recognizes the full
yalidity of the statement Of October
s. he said, and will submit to any
directions Of the party; it protests the
ssertion that the theory and prac-
ice of the opposition is departure
rom Leninism; it recognizes the
Comintern as the sole proletarian re-
yolutionary organization and Lenin-
ism as the sole guide to the struggle.
Kameneff's speech was constantly in
terrupted by heckling.
china's Position.
Tan Ping Hsiang of China declared
that the Communist Party OF China
fully endorses the feminist central
committee of the c. P. S. U. The
Chinese Communist Party and the
Chinese Communist Youth adopted
resolutions condemning Trotskyism be.
cause it was dangerous for the Chi
nese revolution. The events in China
are belying, the views Of the opposi-
ton that imperialism lessons the ir-
Irregularities of capitalist development.
II the opposition were right the pros
poets OF the Chinese revolution would
be hopeless in the face OF the common
efforts OF the imperialists to defeat
1t. The facts are demonstrating the
reverse: each new victory Of the
Cantonese forces is disintegrating the
front. On the peasant
question Trotsky is also wrong. The
peasants OF China are fighting in the
national antilmperialist struggle I'M
der the leadership OF the proletariat.
After the victory OF the revolution
there will take place the specialization
Of the chief branches Of industry UNI
der the alliance of workers and peas
ants.
The opposition's slogan that the c.
p. must leave the Kuomintang is
wrong because 1t would mean the re-
Of the hagemony of the
proletariat and the liquidation of the
Chinese revolution.
Meyer, Germany.
The next speaker was Meyer Of
Germany, who pointed out that the op-
position in the G. p. s. U. had at
