ing Cannon, knows the renegade
well enough; he refers with con-
tempt to the members of the Work
crs (Communist) Party as "the
Party-ites."
Collier. the petty bourgeois, says,
with apparent pride, that he is not
q member of the Party, and his only
regret is that, not being a member,
he Cannot aid" the renegade Can
non ain your fight within it's ranks"
fThe only purpose he can see for
being in the Communist Party is to
fight against Bolshevism and for
Trotskyist corruption inside the
Party. Surely this is classic ex-
ample of the etty-bourgeois, party
hating corruptionistD
Note the venom of Mr.. Collier in
accusing the Communist Party of
"cowardice" for "suppressing the
arguments of the renegades, which
have not only NOT been suppressed,
but which have been published in
the Daily Worker in this country
and in the Communist press every
where and have been rejected with
contempt by the Copmunist work
cgs of all countries. Yet this petty
bourgeois Of an anti-Communist
magazine finds brother in Can
non, to whom he writes that the
Workers (Communist) Party is
''cowardly."' while he refers to HIM
self, the little non-Party business
manager. as fearless revolution
istw who must "stand aside and
watch for all opportunity to Join in
preparation for the coming Prole-
tartan World Revolution of the fu-
ture." The revolution "of the flu
ture"-for this little bourgeois!
Rrt as Tor the revolution of the
present-welI, the workers Union
Of Socialist Soviet Republics is no
good, and the revolutionary Workers
(Communist) Parry of this country
should be destroyed. ~
Il like your stand" he tells the
renegade Cannon. "The tone of
your writing rings true" Mr..
Cannon has found a stalwart re-
cruit in Mr.. Collier.
Golfers remark about what he
"Calverton's Stalinism"
amounts to nothing more than that
Calverton, editor Of the "Modern
Quarterly" who is himself a busy
propagandist of anti-Communist,
anti- Marxist. anti-Leninist phil
osophy," utilities his publication
little more adroitly than would the
crude Mr.. Collier. and appears not
yet ready to declare himself openly
as an anti-Communist. Calverton
so far has contented himself with
publishing attacks against the Party
under other persons names, while
hiding himself behind long-winded,
super-" intellectual" attacks on the
dia,ectical- materiaiist basis of Marx
ism-Leninisni.
Mr.. Eastman comes to the rescue
of the Cannon Trotskyist group
with additional subscribers to the
Militant" Not one of the indi-
viduals suggested is a member of
the American Section or any other
Section Of the Communist Interna-
tional. Of course, the mere fact
that Mr.. Eastman submits the
rames is not to be taken as an in
dication that these individuals are
Trotskyites. But certainly it is no
accident that Mr.. Eastman recon-
mends as subscribers to the "Mili-
tant" such out and out bourgeois in
dividuals like Amos Pinchot.
