and peasants revolution, the bour-
geoisie in the oppressed countries is
becoming reactionary and is accept
ing the brides of the imperialists.
A new type of national war, in
which the proietariat alone can play
the leading role, is coming more and
more to the front. This applies also
to the national wars of the Latin
American countries against United
States Imperialism. The tendency

Versailles treaty, the question of

Russian, Ukrainian and Bessarabian
populations in their territories, who

against the imperialist bourgeoisie.
