MOSCOW, Dec. IL (FP)-Memories
Of almost a quarter of a century be-
gan to stir in an American union pat
TERN maker. Recollections of radical
activity while working in the Brooklyn
navy yard in 1905 began to revive. 1t
seemed a dream impossible of realiza-
ton, this matter Of resolution turned
into reality by revolution. He looked
about him in the darkened auditorium.
A few familiar faces in the huge au-
dience, but almost a thousand I'M
familiar ones,
Yes he was in Moscow, in the for
mer Hall of the Mobiles, now the
House of the Trade Unions. And be-
fore his eyes was unfolding the ter
rible, fascinating film, Cruiser Potem-
kin, the story of the revolt of the
czar's Black Sea navy in the days
of the abortive rising Of 1905. He
had seen it in America, but the
American censors had chopped and
slashed it so that the full terror of
the Cossack massacre of the people
Of Odessa and the full majesty of the
marines and crew of the Potemkin as
they asserted worker control were
lost to the American public.
The patternmaker unused on the eX-
citing news Of p years ago when the
Potemkin mutiny was cabled across

which he was a member, had called
mass meeting near the Brooklyn

meeting he read resolution that was
adopted greeting the first Socialist
navy in the world and hailing the red

The car managed to crush the re-

| thus can one go with the revolutionary
workers.
We cannot publish the truth, that
after the decisive meeting of the c. c.
Zinoviev and Kamenev had the au-
dacity to demand at the Sunday meet
ing a reconsideration, that Kamenev
shamelessly called out, the G. c. has
made fiasco, for it has done nothing
for a week l could not refute this,
for one cannot say what has actually
been done); but Zinoviev, with an in
nocent air, moved the resolution that
had been rejected by the meeting
Nothing shall be undertaken before
the conference, with the Bolsheviki,
which must meet on the goth for the
Soviet Congress-"
One could not believe it: After the
decision of the Centre regarding the
strike, to propose to the meeting of
the masses to postpone the question,
to entrust its solution to the Congress
Ito the Congress on the 20th-the
Congress was, however, postponed
later . the Zinovievs believe the
GloSIo anu AnhoJ, W IS1SI IL W d
cOllegium which is not provided for
in the statutes of the Party, over
which the c. G. has no control, which
Petrograd does not know.
And after this Zinoviev still had
the brazenness to write: Zone can
hardly strengthen the unity of the
Party by such means"
Can that be described as anything
else than a threat to split the Party.
l replied to such threat, that
shall go to the end, that shall obtain
the right to speak before the workers,
that | shall at all costs brand the
strike-breaker Zinoviev as strike
breaker. To the threat to split the
Party | reply with the proclamation
of an memorable fight until the ex-
pulsion of the two strike-breakers
from the Party
The Executive Committee Of the
Trade Union Federation has, after
long months, of debate, decided: the
strike has become inevitable and the
time is ripe, the time fixed for the
strike must be kept secret from the
employers. Thereupon two members
of the Executive Committee go to the
masses in order to combat the de-
cision, but fail. Then these two go
to the press, and by means of treach-
erous lies betray the decision of the
executive committee to the capitalist
press, thereby running the chances of
the strike by good half and, by
warning the enemy, cause it to be
postponed to a less favorable time.
That is complete case of strike
breaking. And that is the reason
why l demand the expulsion of the
two strike-breakers and h e b Y
reserve myself the right, in view of
the threat to split the Party, to pub
lish everything when the time for do
ing so shall have come.
