these faults are laid down by the
Address of the CT, which has al
ready proven its correctness and will
help to raise the political level Of
the membership.
For the enemies of our movement
and especially pharisees of the So
cial democracy the faults of our
Party are signs Of decay. They are
glad and speculate when we point
out these faults. Thereby the safe
lites Of social democracy can hide
their true color Of counter-revolu-
tionists and betrayers of the pro-
letariat. We, however, need not be
afraid of them. By pointing out our
faults, it means that our Party is
healthy and can stand constructive
criticism and correct it's faults The
same cannot be said of the socialist
party which is basically counter
revolutionary and can only correct
its faults by eliminating itself.

all the comrades therein arrested.
Many comrades were also arrested
at their homes. In the meantime,
the capitalist press, on the basis of
lies and the most fantastic news,
was vomiting poison and melting to
lynching and violence against the
Communists. The reactionary lead
ers of the socialist party formed
part and parcel with the capitalists
and aided in denouncing the Com
munist to the police and appealing
to the sentiment of the hesitant ele-
ments, to desert the Communist
movement and return to the social
ist sheepfold in which they were told
tc be safe from Imprisonment and
deportation.
The numbers of comrades arrest
ed were about 10000, most of them
were deported to their native coun-
tries, others were thrown into dark
American penitentiaries for short
and long periods of time.
The bourgeosie thought of raising
dyke before the advancing Com
munist movement, but it soon had to
realize the futility of its made act,
because only three months later the
Communist Party. still divided in
two parts, had reconstructed illegal
ly its central apparatus, and cstab-
lished its contact with many i'm
portant groups of the perifery.
The Communist Party therefore,
before it could definitely consolidate
its forces upon a Leninistic ideolog-
ical basis, had gone through the
enemy's fire, and stood its test with
heroism. Later, it established con-
tact with the Communist Interna-
tional whose guidance has united all
the underground forces. Meanwhile
the S. P. was more openly assum-
ing its petty-bourgeois and counter
revolutionary character until the 1e-
naming revolutionary members split
away from it in 1921, forming the
group of the workers Council" In
this year, the C. P. was still out
lawed, but the terroristic and reac-
tionary wave had been weakened
Already the Party had formed legal
organizations, but they We're not
sufficient to embrace and solve the
manifold problems. 1t was there
fore decided to organize a legal
Party to which were invited all the
revolutionary legal groups, then
ready to accept the line of the Com

lean Labor Alliance controlled by
the underground c. p, the Workers
Council, the Jewish, Finnish and
German Socialist Federations, etc.
This Party was organized on Dec.
25, 1921 and took the name Work
er's Party Of America"
Since then, it was clear that the
w. P. of A. was destined to become
the only expression Of the American
Communist movement, but much
caution had to be used before liquid
ating the underground Party still
in existence. On August, 1922, the
Communist Party held an illegal
Convention in the State of Michigan.
The question of abolishing the I'M

but the sectarian tendencies at that

list party, I. W. W., anarchists and
trade-unionists. It accumulated in
its ranks the baggage of all these
old theological traditions, to which
must be added those of the language
comrades coming from the labor
movements of their original coun-
tries. The revolutionary enthusiasm
had put together all those forces,
but their revolutionary HOMOGENEOUS
ness could be reached only through
long process of theological clarifi-
cation and experience of the new Le-
ninistic methods of struggle. Great
steps towards this direction have
been made in the course of time,

ly, Salutzky. Cannon, Lovestone)
were expelled from the Party. One
of the greatest steps towards Boil
shevization shas been made by the
Party with the reorganization of
its ranks from territorial ana Ian
guage branches into shop units. But
even this problem has been a process
(not yet definitely accomplished)
conected with the general process of
Leninistic theological Qualification.
In recapitulating we can say:
Until 1928 our Party was divided in
two and sometimes three groups and
had many infantile faults. From
1923 to 1927 the Party has made
great steps toward its bolshevik
maturity, but its specific activity
has been mostly conducted on a
propagandistic field due also to the
objective conditions of the American
Labor Movement in that period.
From 1927 until today it has more
actively participated in mass-move-
ments; from propagandistic Party
it has made great steps towards be-
coming mass Party of the workers.
The factionalistic struggle within
its ranks, without a basic political
difference has been one of the great
est faults of our Party. Behind the
factions there were hidden many I'M
desirable elements from which the
Party was impotent to free itself.
Due to the factionalistic situation,
the Party could not conduct an ef-
fective struggle against Trotskyism,
sccial-reformist influences and the
right danger within its own ranks.
The Party could not prepare it's
forces for the struggle Of the work.
crs, which are ripening within the
third postwar period. Among our
comrades has been developed an in
dividualism conflicting with the
Leninistic principles of discipline.
The address of the Communist In
ternational, May Is, of this year
has given a death blow to factional-
ism. The Party is now following
the Ways and Meurs Committee Of
the line of the CT. Address. There
are still in its ranks remnants Of
old factionalism. Many comrades do
not yet understand what democratic
Capitalization, feminist discipline,
colonization Of the members and
other fundamental questions really
mean. There are still passive mem
bers; there is still a lack of self
Bolshevik activity. Among the men,
bers of the Party units many are
affected with khvostism; the right
danger is still very great menace

BY l.. Candida,

Before and during the world war
the political Party of the American
workers was the socialist party.
There were in it three distinct ten
denotes; the right wing, the left
wing, and the centre, which was also
formed of social-democratic ele-
ments, who were in control of the
Party in spite of the fact that the
majority of the membership was in
favor of the revolutionary. left
wing.
The Russian Revolution has given
great impulse to the left wing
movement, but the bureaucratic and
reactionary tactics of the social-re-
formist leaders prevented the left
wing from taking over the direction
of the Party. In the election of
the National Executive Committee
held by referendum vote, the left
wing candidates received an over
whelming majority of the votes, but
the social-reformists in control, re-
fused to turn the Party over to the
newly elected committee. This was
not enough; soon after the wars,
they expelled from the Party State
Federations of Michigan and Ohio,
the lief: wing members of New York,
Boston, Chicago, Buffalo and other
cities. Although the social-reform-
lists, due to their reactionary acts,
prevented the revolutionary wing
from taking control of the Party,
they could not prevent its develop
ment. The new revolutions and the
great mass movements in other
countries, the new success of the
Russian Revolution, brought new
enthusiasm to the American work.
ing masses. On May /, 1919, in
spite of police intimidations, great
demonstrations, to which the masses
responded splendidly, were held in
cities like Cleveland, Detroit, New
York, Chicago, Boston, where the
left wing members were in control.
The invitation to join the Third
International had given still more
impetus to the left wing of the
socialist party, and on September 1,
2, 8, 1919, together with the revo-
lutionary groups of the S. L. P. and
I. w. W., formed officially the Com
munist Movement, with total men,
bership of about $4,000.
Since the foundation of this young
movement, the social-reformists ct
tackled it most viciously. The lack
o. connection with the European
comrades had greatly obstaced the
theological Qualification which could
have reduced to the minimum, at
least, it's infantile faults. Anyhow,
the Communist movement was
founded and although divided into
two Parties, on superficial issues,
it was considered by American cap
italism a menace to its privileges
and it planned raging attack on
the Communist movement in order
to destroy it,
This made attack started on the
night of December 81, 1919, and on
January 1, 2, 1920; violent wave
of bourgeoisie terror broke loose
against the Communist movement.
simultaneously all the Communist
locals were raided by the police and
