By MAX BEDACHT

The following series of articles
represents extracts from speeches
delivered by Comrade Bedacht, as
representative of the Central Com
mittee, to Functionaries' meetings
in New York, Chicago, Detroit,
Cleveland and Pittsburgh. This
series is devoted to some main
political questions and may be
used as an outline by agitprop
workers in the enlightenment cam
paign. But special care must be
taken in localizing and concretiz-
ing the self-criticism, as we'll as
the immediate political tasks in
the light of the Comintern Ad-
dress Questions which were dealt
with by Comrade Bedacht in his
previous articles).
VII. Tighten the Lines of the Party.
The years Of fractional struggle
within our Party played havoc with
its inner cohesiveness. fractional
discipline replaced Party discipline
fractional interest replaced Party
interests. fractional friendship re-
placed comradeship within the
Party. Inner Party democracy be-
came an empty term instead of "a
living principle. 1t was only used
as demagogic propaganda against
"the other faction" In short, The
class struggle interests of the Party
were drowned in the swamp of fac.
tional struggle interests. The
prevalence of this condition for sc
long has put a mark upon our Party
which cannot be removed overnight
Only conscious and consideration;
counteraction will finally achieve
this task.
TIE first step to counterfeit thess
results of years of fractional strife
is to dissolve the factions. This dis

became Immediately an issue in the
membership. The defeated" leader
took the next opportunity to bring
the matter before the membership
and to appeal to it against the in
justice of having his motion voted
down. This is an intolerab]e prac-
tice in Communist Party. Every
member Of a leading committee is
an agent for the decisions of such
a committee even though he may
have been opposed to the decision
or may still differ with it. Is it
any wonder that as delegates to
the Cominterns we could proceed to
an open challenge Of the authority
of our World Party after we had
accustomed ourselves to challenge,
at every step and for years, the
authority of our own leading COM
mittees?
This utter lack of discipline had
still another side. The membership
too followed this example and any
lost motion or proposal in nuclei or
membership meetings became a
subject for appeal to higher com
mittees-the most trivial matters
often being proposed as subject for
appeal to the Comintern. This il

Defeating the Splitters

THE FUNDAMENTAL soUNDNEss of the pro,atarian
