I for the British dominions, thereby ex-
ercising, like the magnetic mountain
of folklore, an irresistible attraction
upon the dominions.
Already in the beginning Of 1925,
at the first important step of British
foreign policy, the adoption Of the
Client Protocol, the dominions de-
clined to cooperate. The British gov
eminent wanted to call a general i'm
perial conference but the dominion
governments declined the invitation
because they feared that some sort OF
obligation bound up with new wars
might result for them as the result Of
the conference. The chief organ Of
the British empire, The Times, at that
time wrote a whole series of articles
on this gravest danger to the British
empire. 1t said: "Britain's most i'm
portant problem in the postwar
period is the question of how the six
autonomous sections of Great Britain,
which in their entirity constitute the
real imperial power, can be drawn to-
gether into a uniform policy against
the dangers menacing the empire. We
are confronted here with a problem OF
most extreme significance because Il
involves the very existence of the en-
pire. II these six units of the British
empire cannot come to an understand
ing as to foreign policy then their
Transformation into mutually indie
pendent states becomes inevitably
question of the times. They cannot
solve this question in any other way
! than to answer: either we must
recognize the need for a uniform for
eign policy or else the empire must
fall to pieces" (Retranslated from
the Germany.
The Times is right. The question
really is that either the British bour-
geoisie be successful in conducting
a uniform world policy for the empire
or else the British empire falls to
pieces. The events OF foreign policy
show evermore clearly however that
the dominions no longer tolerate the
British uniform world policy, or
in other words the imperialist policy
which is contrary also to their inter.
ests. The British government intends
to call an imperial conference OF all
dominions next June. But this inn
perlal conference can help very little,
It will not create the unity of the
British empire but will bring to even
more Grass expression the existing
antagonisms.

international Press correspondence)
MOSCOW, Feb. 20 (By MaiD The
second session of the enlarged execu-
tive of the Communist International
was opened today under the chairman
ship of Comrade Geschke.
Apart from the commissions elected
in the opening session, the following
commissions were unanimously elect
ed A German commission consist
ing of Stain as chairman, Kusinen
as secretary, and two representatives
of each of the larger parties and one
representative of each of the remain
ing parties; a Japanese commission
with Brown (England) as chairman,
an American comrade as secretary, a
representative from each section and
number of comrades from the East
in person.
Comrade Dunno (American) pointed
to the necessity for the telegram
which is to be despatched to the i'm
prisoned members Of the central COM
mittee of the Communist Party of
Great Britain and stressed the fact
that as the contradictions between
British and American imperialisms
grew so also did the solidarity be-
tween the American and English COM
rades. The sending of the telegram
was decided upon unanimously.
NOMRADE zINOVIEv commenced
~ his report upon the activity Of
the Executive Committee of the Com.
munist International amidst protract-
ed applause.
The Fifth Congress pointed to the
opening of the democratic-pacifist pc
riod and the last enlarged executive
sessions introduced the slogan "sta-
bilization." The slogan for the pres
ent period must be "the sterilization
is commencing to tremble!" Never
theless, it is our duty not to over
estimate this trembling and to make
no false conclusions. l will take the
following words of Lenin as to the
text of my speech 1.-THE greatest,
perhaps even the only danger for
real revolutionary is the overestima-
ton and exaggeration of the revolu-
ton, the failure to observe the boun-
daries and the conditions for the APP
plication of revolutionary methods
successfully. Real revolutionaries
only fail when they lose their calm
and begin to see the great world
revolution everywhere"
Since the Third Congress, and par
ticularly since the Fifth, we haye
worked with two perspectives. These
the revolution itself; they related
only to the tempo of its coming and
the way that it would take. We are
and we will remain proletarian revo-
lutionaries, we know that the prole-
tartan dictatorship is a matter of our
own time. The first perspective as
sumes quick development, with the
victory Of the revolution on world
scale within few years. The second
perspective reckOns with a slower de-
velopment. To reckon with two pos
sibilities like this is uncomfortable,
but it is necessary. The accusation
that this is eclecticism, and proves a
lack of firm policy, is incorrect. It
IS not eclecticism, it comes dialecti-
cally from the given historical situa-
ton. In the question of the route of
the revolution, in the past we relied
perhaps too much upon Central Eu-
rope. After the last session of the
enlarged executive we looked too
much towards England. In 1925 the
