camp of labor. Four years after Len
ms death the workers of all the
world, and more particularly, the
workers of the United States, can
realize the truth of his warnings and
the significance of his struggle
against the renegade leaders. The
American working class is continually
betrayed by the bureaucracy of the
American Federation of Labor and the
socialist party. The labor traitors
hate militant struggle. They are
afraid of the masses. They have made
peace with the imperialist rulers. They
have given aid to every imperialist
venture, including the massacres of
workers and peasants in China and
Nicaragua.
Militant Action Against Union.
These agents of the capitalist class
within our ranks have resorted to the
use of capitalist courts, police, in
functions, gunner and gangsters
against the fighting needle trades
workers. While the very life Of our
unions is in danger, the bureaucrats
and their socialist tools have beer

against the unions and their left wing
fighters. We must rid ourselves of
this cancer of treachery within la

! Lenin led the workers to victory
in Russia and helped them to build the
new Soviet Republic under the leader
ship of the Communist Party. -Four
years after Lenin's death, the Soviet
! Union has reached stage of eco
nomic up-building, cultural growth.
unity and stability which exceeds the
/ most optimistic expectations of years
! ago. Soviet industries are flourish
ing. The Soviet village is slowly ris-
ing to new level. The rule of the
working class is accepted as the force
/ that creates a new life and new
/ freedom for the masses. The Red
Army is vigilantly keeping guard
over the land of proletarian rule
ready to fight imperialist attack. The
minority nationalities enjoy full free
dom of self-determination and Gull
tural creativeness unknown in other
countries. The working class is uni
ted in determined effort to carry
the revolution to it's goal-a social
ist order. The Communist Party has
! increased its unity and strength not
withstanding the attempt to weaken it
by the opposition. The working class
under the Party leadership is vigor-
ously and hopefully building socialism
in the Soviet lands. The private bust
ness man is gradually dislocated from
his economic position and reduced to
an ever diminishing auxiliary role
! The village bourgeoisie is under con
troll. Co-operatives are becoming the
accepted agencies of exchange not
only in the cities but also in the rural
districts. City and village mutually
understand and support each other.
The future is full of splendid pros
poets.

look with fury upon the progress of
the only proletarian state, they may
plot and conspire to put obstacles in
its way or to invade it by force of

volntion remains the great beacon of
light for the workers of the whole
globe, it shows them concretely the
trult of victory over the capitalists,
1t points the way for all other coun-
tries.
