Errors" of Majority.
Now, let us skip few para
graphs-there are too many to deal
with. Let us take up the question
of "From 1923 to 1929" You state
that Between the middle of 1928
and the beginning of 1925, the Ma
jority went seriously wrong on two
major lines of Party policy" And
you proceed "analyzing" the Right
eros of the Majority way down
to the last item under the same
heading: Between the period of
1925 and 1927 the Majority went
wrong again. . :" How do you
explain, Comrade Bittelman, the
fact-between 1923 and 1925-the
Majority went seriously wrong"
then in the period of 1925 and 1927
the Majority "went wrong again"
yet the c. 1. found it safe and sane
to turn over the leadership to the
Majority stating that the Majority
is nearer to the line of the Commu-
mist International.

Now, in conclusion, a few words
about the Minority "self-criticism."

Minority (although you still hold
reservations to that letter.. The
Communist International, in that let

much self praise instead of self
criticism and Comrade Lovestone
acknowledged his stupidity" at the
membership meeting. What are you
doing now? Criticizing the Minority
under heading of CORRECTNESS of

coed with your "self-criticism:"
"(a) The Minority was substan-

"(b) The Minority was basically

and so on down the line of self
