SESSIONS OF ENLARGED EXECUTIVE
COMMITTEE OF COMINTERN OPENED

come during the course Of the year
under consideration were mostly
crises of growth. A good example OF
this is provided by the Communist
Party of Czecho-Slovakia, which, due
to it's good tactics, has become e
decisive party Of the proletariat. on
the other hand, Bubnik, who hoped
to destroy the Party, is now reposing
on the rubbish heap. With the as
sistance OF the Comintern, the Party
succeeded in overcoming the dangers
which threatened from the right.
cat the present time there are sim
liar phenomena to be observed in the
French Party, tho not so serious, as
In the Communist Party of Czecho-
Slovakia a year ago. It will in all
probability be much easier to get rid
of these right dangers in France than
it was in Czecho-Slovakia.
White Terror Victims.
1.-THE year has cost us great sacri-
fees. In SS countries 40,457 Com
rades were arrested, 3O,2S6 wounded
and 4,553 either murdered outright or
tortured to death In Bulgaria alone
thousand comrades we're murdered.
In England for example, almost all
the members of the Central Commit
tee of the Party are in prison. The
General staff Of the world revolution
sends its warmest greetings to all
comrades in prison.
1.-The most important question fac
ing our session is the question OF the
correct application of the united front
tactic. the trade union question, the
question of the working class move
ment on the Continent and in the
East will also play great role. The
last executive session spoke of rel
alive, temporary, provisional, weak
and hesitating sterilization. The
bourgeois and the social democracy
snapped UP the word sterilization
and abandoned the adjectives. They
did not want to hear that we had
coupled the word sterilization with
the word 'bolshevization.' The worl
of bolshevization has already played
great role amongst the sections, and
,, in the future it will play still greater
, one"
Zinoviev stressed the points in tht
draft of the present theses concern
ing the internal life Of the Parties
{ and the Comintern. 1.-THE sections
strengthened themselves and the,
: must build up and correctly apply al
internal Party democracy. They mus
take a greater part in the whole worl
of the Comintern and show more 20
littcal initiative. The GENERALIZATION
Of the Communist Party Of the Sovie
Union and its historically founded in
fluence must remain until the revolt
ton has been victorious in one Of tn
leading countries of the west. Tn
. sections must nevertheless solve thei
: own Party questions more and NOR
: upon the basis of their own Party e.
periences with the assistance OF tn
executive.
Recently a great wave Of lies ca
be observed in the bourgeois and tn
: social democratic press. They col
tend that the Comintern is bearing
: the right, that it is abandoning tn
y teachings Of Lenin. These lies d.
= serve the contempt of all Commul
Is lists. The Comintern still Is and wi
always remain the advance guard an
world organization of the class-coi
If scious proletariat upon the basis
" Marxism and Leninism. The Cor
munist proletariat has now worke
s. for over two years without Lenin an
r the Comintern has remained and wi
u remain true to the teachings of Leni
a The work of the present enlarged e
ut ecutive OF the Communist Intern
tional will prove that anew. Lor
is live the Communist International
