AF course you know that much of

am not going to go into the question
of the Indonesian affair for the rea-
son that careful treatment would
not be possible in the amount Of time
at hand. A few words about the work
in regard to China. From the very
day that I arrived in Moscow
the Comintern machinery was given
over night and day to the most care
full following up of the Chinese events.
The development of the tremendous
revolutionary movement, the victori-
Gus march which reached its peak in
the capture Of Shanghai, the sympa-
thetic demonstrations of the workers
throughout the world during that
period are closely related to the work
of the Comintern during that period.
You know that that period Of victory
continued up to certain time, when
the traitor Chang Kai-shek made his
coupe d'etat in 1927. The martyr
dom of, the Communists in the Kuo-
mingtang, the declaration of the
countef-revolution the declaration of
the bourgeoisie against the prole-
tartan clements, the effort to break
the growing ascendancy of the pro-
letarian movement, followed as a re-
suit of the development of the prole-
tartan phases of the revolution. Since
that time we have seen the downfall
Of Chang Kai-shek, his defeat and
his retirement. We, of course, know
that there are and that there is an
inner play Of intrigue between the
different capitalist imperialist pow
ers. You know of course that the
British government is working for the
preservation of their trade monopoly
in Southern China. You know that
Chang Kai-shek was not in accord
with the British policy, you know that
two smaller generals were given a
sudden supply of financial and other
support to give them a mysterious
ability to defeat Chang Kai-shek and

The Party's Shortcomings, Mistakes and Problems

Let us consider the problem of the
effect of American Imperialism on
our working class and the resulting
problem of bourgeoisification The
bourgeois press and it's economic eX-
perts have been propagandizing the
country with the idea that the Amer
lean working class is becoming CAPT
talist. This propaganda has been
made not only by the bourgeois press
but also by the so-called Socialist eX-
perts. The Socialist" economic eX-
per5s, such as Evans Clark, have
spread in some measure the theory
that the laboring masses are becoming
capitalist in this country. These
propagandists are pointing to the in
crease in the number of stockholders,
to the increase in labor banks, auto
mobiles, gas stations, radios, saving
accounts. They even maintain that
there are 100000 stockholders in
this country. They also point to a
growth of the middle class in the
United States. Instead of seeing the
rise of technicians as the dominant
source of the middle class in the
country, with the development of
large scale production, they speak of
the middle class increasing as a class
without analyzing its composition.
They fail to see that large masses of
the petty bourgeoisie, particularly
among the farmers, are being ex-
propriated They fail to see that the
highly advertised wealth diffusion in
America is an illusion, not a reality.
This propaganda, comrades, has had
effect on the working class. 1t has
been powerful, planned, we'll
organized propaganda. 1t has effected
all ranks of the working class, for 8
reasons. These are: primarily be-
cause of the power of American i'm
perialism; secondly, because of the
role Of the labor aristocracy at pres
emit; thirdly, the labor movements
going to the right to the extent that
it has gone. The Party must fight
this effort of the bourgeoisie. The
Party must fight this effort of the
bourgeoisie and their agents ideologi-
cally and organizationally.

Nv. OUR MAIN PARTY PROBLEMS

w. YIN MAIN FAhl1 PROBLEMS
COMRADES, as a result Of the OBJ
" jective conditions in the country
and the weaknesses of our Party GER
tain problems arise. I want to exam
inc briefly some of these problems
now facing us. The following are the
six outstanding problems confronting
our Party:
l. The effect of imperialism on the
American working class. I would
speak of this problem to a large ex-
tent under the heading, the bourgeois
ification of the American working
class.
2, The trade union work of the
Party, the meaning of the offensive
of the reactionary bureaucracy and
the government against the Party
q. The problems of developing a
mass anti-war campaign.
4. The labor party problem.
;. The role of the Party in the
united front movements.
6. Last but not least; the prob
lem of developing in the districts a
capacity to utilize local issues.
To handle the last problem first:
speak of local issues not in depreca-
ting sense. Our district organiza-
tons have-been weak in the. sense that
they have been too largely politically
abstract and not sufficiently locally
POLITICAL Not enough of our organi-
cations are able to pick up local is
sues and apply to these local issues
the fundamental general principles of
Bolshevism. This applies to every
district of the Party in varying de-
grees. The extent to which a district
OF the Party can be called a we'll
functioning district is directly in
proportion to the extent it has been
able to respond to local issues and
utilize local issues for fundamental
class purposes. In New York, Pitts
burg, Minnesota, our comrades have
shown increasing capacity for this
work. In all districts there has been
an increase in the ability to react to
local issues. But our Party is still
weak and this is one of our out
standing problems.

government was at work You know
the role that was played by the Uni
ted States in that affair. am going

ton of the policy of the United States
government in China for the reason

policy which was put forward by
Comrade Lovestone who reported on
behalf of the Political Committee.
am going to make only a few re-
marks about subsequent events. We
know, of course, that the Chinese
revolution has not seen an even course
of successes. We know that the most
tragic defeats have been faced, we
know that the road of the Chinese
revolution may have many more de-
featS, many more set-backs. We have
seen the Chinese Communist Party
tested and we have witnessed the
tragic fact Of part of the leader
ship failing to live up to its test.
We have found the Youth, the Chi
nese Communist Youth, taking a bet
ter position and playing again the
role of standing by the Comintern
and preserving the Communist line.
The Communist International has
been obliged to level most severe
criticisms at our Chinese Communist
Party leadership which was in oppo-
sition to the Comintern policies,
which flouted~the instructions of the
Conintern, which took the position
that the Comintern could not under
stand the conditions in China, and
which led from defeat to defeat
through their weak and vascillating
policies. When the ,Comintern under
stood and declared to the comrades of
the Chinese party that it was neces-
sary to turn loose the peasant revo-
luton, to turn loose the masses of
peasants to the immediate seizure of
the land, directly and without hesita-
ton, the majority of the Party leader
ship refused to obey the decisions and
made the declaration that these in
structions were not practical. The re-
suits are to be counted up in defeat
after defeat. When the Comintern
saw these actions, and saw the gem
erals one by one betraying and lining
up in coalition with the servants of
imperialism, the Comintern called
for bold stand by our Communist
Party and the left wing of the Kuo-
mintang. The Comintern demanded
the establishment of revolutionary
tribunals to bring these generals to
the judgement of the working and
peasant classes, but the Party leader
ship was not up to the measure. Com
rades, you know that there has been
a revival of the revolutionary prole-
tartan elements in the Chinese situa-
ton and we hope for newer and
better developments in the future.
will not undertake to go into an an
alysis on events which have occurred
since my return as have been able to
get nothing except the capitalist press
reports which information may
not be reliable. But comrades we
are confident that the Chinese revolu-
ton is no temporary affair and that
these defeats will not mean the ex-
tinction, the non-eXistence of the Chi
nese revolution as a major factor in
the present world situation. This is
the period Of decline of capitalism.

the foreign tyrant.
Judah of the house of Hur and his
family may have suffered from the
pin pricks of wounded national pride
because of the presence Of the Roman
conquerors but they are permitted to
retain their slaves and live in luxury.
The Romans knew how to divide and
conquer. They may have invented
the political trick for all l know.
There is MESSIAH the renegade who
went over to the conquerors and out
Romans the Romans in his hatred for
his own race. Once a friend of
Judah, the two become bitter enc
mics after a scene in the Hur house.
And when the Roman general Gratus
while riding in his litter thru Jeru-
salem and Judea, collides with a
stone which is accidentally pushed
from it's position on the roof of the
house from which Judah and his
mother and sister viewed the parade.
Ben-Hur is condemned to the galleys
and his mother and sister are sent
to prison where they contracted
leprosy.
Judah's escape from the galleys
thru the Intervention of Quintus Ar
RUS, the Roman commander whose
life he saved, his return to Jerusalem
to seek his mother and sister, the
great chariot race at Antioch where
Ben-Hur defeats the renegade Mas
salo, are thrilling scenes, that create
the mood to forget the pestilent chris
tisns who crawl like tape worms thru
the play. What is otherwise a splen-
did piece of work is ruined, except
for the philosophical materialist, by
the most banal christian propaganda
that l have ever seen outside of a
church, tho like Abie's Irish Rose it
is designed to please both orthodox
Jew and christian gentle,
The oppressed Judeans wanted a
leader who would lead them against
the Romans with swords in their
hands and curses on their lips. In
stead of such a leader they were Civ
en- human worm who carried the
cross on which he was crucified and
raised the slogan of Peace and HUI
mility instead of Rebellion and Free
dom.
The oppience is saved from the
usual idiotic love-making that bedev-
lis most screen dramas. The film ed
itor may have served an apprentice
ship as a monk. Of course the hero
falls in love and presumably marries
the prettiest girl in Jerusalem, after
his victory over Messiah, but he does
it with as little beating around the
bush as a tired business man would
indulge in when about to spend the
evening at snappy burlesque show.
Ramon Novarro is a tidy piece of
animated protoplasm and he fills the
void left by the departed Valentino
to my satisfaction. There was one
sheik in the play and he had whiskers.
Evidently Novarro thot one was
enough.
