standpoint of the connection between
industry and agriculture. 1t especi-
ally emphasizes the fact that prog
ress in agriculture will be attained
only as a result of a gigantic tech
nical transformation in the back
ward economy of the countryside.
Labor Productivity.
Another great difficulty is the
question of the productivity of la
Dor and labor discipline. The in
crease of the productivity of labor
Socialist decentralization is the alb
solutely essential requisite for the
accomplishment of the great results
outlined in the Five-Year Plan.
The first quarter of the current
economic year shows a far smaller
increase in labor productivity than
estimated-12%o instead of 1870. The
Central Committee of the Party, the
various Soviet organs, and the Sow
let trade unions are giving serious
attention to this problem and to
the allied question of working dis
cipline.
The Right Danger.
A great obstacle in the way of
Socialist construction and the
achievement of the Five-Year Plan
is the right wing deviations that
have found expression in some strata
of the CPSU and the attitude of
those who are conciliatory to these
right wing deviations.
These deviations are the ref1ec-
ton of the wavering and vaccilation
in certain petty bourgeois strata
even in certain elements of the work.
ing class produced by the carrying
out of the straight and consistent
policy of Socialist construction under
the great difficulties inherent in the
present stage of capitalist encircle-
ment, of technical and economic
backwardness of the country, of the
numerical preponderance of petty
bourgeois elements in the population,
and of the growing resistance of
the capitalist elements to the devel-
opment of Socialist construction.
The most important errors of the
right wing center around their at
tempts to hamper the development
of Soviet farms and collective agri-
culture and the struggle against the
kulak (the rich peasant), and their
attempt to slow down the pace of
industrialization. 1t is clear that
such a line would be fatal to the
whole development of Socialist con-
struction in town and country as
envisaged in the Five-Year Plan.
The complete defeat of these right
wing deviations by the CPSU is one
of the surest guarantees for the
successful achievement of the Five
Year Plan.
Defend the Soviet Union.
The accomplishment Of the Five
Year Plan would be tremendous
blow at world capitalism and an
equally great forward step for the
workers revolution. The imperial
lists realize this very well. There
fore the imperialist offensive against
the Soviet Union is being greatly
intensified and the danger of a new
world war is ever nearer on the
horizon.
The workers and farmers of the
United States must realize that the
achievement of the Five-Year Plan
will be victory for themselves as
well as for the Soviet workers! in
deed it will be triumph for the
toilers Of the whole world.
The American workers and farm,
ers must organize for the defense
of the Soviet Union against the
imperialist offensive. Against the
united imperialist offensive, the soil
darity of labor!
The Soviet workers, with the sup
port of the toilers of the whole
world, will achieve the Five Year
Plan and proceed triumphantly
ahead to complete the building Of
