THE death of General Max Hoff-
4 mann revived for few days the
events of the early months follow
ing the Bolshevik revolution in Rus
STA when Germany forced upon the
Soviet government the treaty of
Brest-Litovsk. It was General Hoff-
mann who, in the most insulting and
threatening manner, hammered with
his fist upon the conference table
and threatened that. unless his draft
was accepted, ceding to the German
imperial government the vast and
rich territory of the Ukraine, he
would order the instant invasion Of
Russia by the German legions.
Infatuated at the impudent de-
meanor and arrogant demands of the
German war lord that the Soviet
government release to the kaiser's
government almost a quarter of the
arabic land of Russia, rich deposits
of coal and iron and one-third of
the population, the Bolshevist dele
gates, particularly Leon Trotsky and
Karl Radek, refused to yield and de-
clared the only reply to Hoffman,
was war to the end.
The threatened break of the con-
ference and the threat of war was
duly reported to the Council of
Peoples Commissars, with Lenin
as chairman. This master of revo-
luton took careful inventory of the
whole situation = the resources Of
the enemy, their ability to continue
the war on the western front and at
the same time throw an army into Rus
sian territory; the internal political
situation among the central powers
which involved the estimate of the
possibilities of the development of
resistance against the imperial gov
eminent; and most important of ALL
the possibilities of the Russian work
ers and soldiers who had suffered
thru the war and revolution having
sufficient vitality to wage war
against the German forces.

The Passing Of General Max Hoffman,

1 ENIN perceived that the masses
of Russia were exhausted by the
war, he knew that they had risen and
overthrow the tar, then successfully
waged struggles against the various
governments that tried to continue
the war and finally smashed the Ker-
ensky government in response to the
slogans of peace, bread and freedom.
The Brest-Litovsk delegates were
called back to Russia and Lenin de-
manded that they sign the treaty in
spite of its humiliating terms. When
Irotsky asked him how he knew the
soldiers would no longer fight, he
replied simply that they had shown
with their feet when they ran away
from the front that they would no
longer face the enemy in the treches.
He also knew that the signing of
such an obviously imperialist docu-
ment would reveal to thousands upon
thousands of German workers that it
was not a defensive but an aggres-
sive war of conquest that Germany
was waging and that the imperialist
agents in the ranks of the social-de-
mocracy would no longer be able to
deceive the masses as to the real
character of the war.
+
THE treaty was signed, General
Hoffman, returned in triumph to
report to his kaiser, the Ukraine was
ceded to Germany. According to
the ethics of bourgeois diplomacy
Russia suffered humiliating defeat
and indeed it was defeat, but un-
avoidable.
The question was not whether the
Soviet government should or should
not yield territory to Germany, but
whether the Boshevik government
should try to defend that territory
without men and face certain defeat
of the revolution throughout all Rus
STA, or hold the heart of Russia for
the revolution and await q more fav-
orable opportunity. Lenin faced the
accusations of pessimism about the

Sstrength of the revolution; he was
accused even of abandoning the revo-
luton by leading members of his own
Party. He realizes that such charg-
es were mere effusions of romanti-
cism, always substitute for political
maturity and with scathing irony
scored his critics within the Bolshe-
visit ranks. But the correctness of
the policy of Lenin was evident to
all within few short months, when
batallions of the German army join
ed in the revolutionary upheavals in
the north of Germany, that sent the
kaiser to exile from whence he has
never returned.
To have followed the path of revo-
lutionary romanticism and sacrificed
the resolution would have been spec
tacular-a dramatic gesture-but ut
terly imbecile. The policy of Lenin
saved the revolution and at the same
time did more to smash German i'm
perialism than all the batallions of
the allies.
TIE death OF hoffman, and the
revival of the Brest-Litovsk treaty
again serves to remind the workers
Of the world of the genius Of Lenin
as political and revolutionary lead
err, one who could avoid the pitfalls
of romanticism as we'll as the danger
of sinking into the slough of pessi-
mism and yielding to despair.
His decisive action at Brest-Li-
tovsk, while revealing his mastery
of diplomacy in face of tremendous
odds, contains many valuable lessons
for revolutionists, not the least of
which rs the necessity for facing
facts as they are, not as one would
like them to be.
Sinre the death of Lenin there
have been many occasions when a
considerable portion Of the revoluti-
onists of the world have tried to
eyade facing facts when to admit
realities meant to admit temporary
defeats. Such was the case, for in
stance in the great general strike in
Britain when some of our own COM
rades in the Workers (Communist)
Party tried to shut their eyes to the
fact that the strike had been betrayed
by the general council and even In
sisted upon trying to distort the
facts so as to make it appear that
the defeat was in reality victory.
Again this defect, this romantic
optimism, is apparent even today
among many workers sympathetic to
the Chinese revolution who had placed
all their hopes in the Hankow gov
eminent and are exceedingly reluct-
ant to admit that that government
has abandoned the path of the revo-
luton and that new forms Of struggle
must arise in order to carry out the
next stage of that rapidly developing
national liberation movement.
From Lenin, as from Marx and
Engels, we must learn the folly of
trying to create enthusiasm among
the masses by perpetuating illusions
regarding the outcome of class strug-
giles. Revolutionary enthusiasm must
be based upon realities and if the
objective conditions are at hand for
revolutionary success that is suffici-
ent, because the modern working
class, unlike other classes in history
struggling for supremacy, has no need
of illusions.
