mass meeting held in Red Square,
n in Warsaw of Comrade Voikoff,
along with the General Staff, mill
tary law and is defending it-a law
which provides for the mobilization
of women and children. In Germany,
Breitscheid declared that the Foreign
policy of Stresemann is the policy Of
the German social democracy.
At the moment when Chamberlain is
II bringing about the united front Of
all the capitalist States against pro-
letarian Russia, the Second Interna-
tional is supporting the action Of the
reactionary English government with
shameful campaign Of lies against
the Soviet Union. AS in 1914, the
role Of social democracy consists in
driving the working class into war.
But today this treachery is even more
reprehensible, because the war is
directed against the proletarian State,
against the Russian revolution and
against the Chinese Revolution.
Comrades,
For work among the masses there
exists still greater danger than the
open, cynical treachery of the Right
social democratic leaders, and that is
the deceitful illusion of the pacifism
of the Left leaders of social demo-
cracy and Of the trade unions, who
utter high-sounding empty phrases
regarding peace and who, instead of
modifying the working masses to the
fight against war, hull them to sleep
by doping them with the opium of
a sentimental and futile pacifism.
THE capitalist regime necessarily
engenders war. Under the CAPT
talist regime there can be no endur-
ing peace. Your fight for peace, for
real peace and not for such a hypo-
critical peace as that of Versailles,
can, therefore, only be fight against
that regime, which produces wars and
perpetuates, lie. revolutionary fight
against the capitalist regime itself
The fight for peace which does not
lead the masses to the revolutionary
fight against the capitalist regime is
merely a deceitful illusion only to be
followed by a bloody morrow.
Workers, Peasants, Suppressed
Peoples

danger of war you must unite your
forces for bitter and ruthless fight

are preparing for war You are the
strongest, and you will be victorious
if you close the united front Of all the

mass action, by great protest meet
ings, by powerful demonstrations, by
protest strikes, by developing an ener-
getic mass struggle will you Illustrate
