boss and is spied upon at every turn TN the Soviet
Union the worker is the master of his job and the
workers organizations control the factories.
All of these contrasts. summed up in the contrast
of world capitalism plunging into crisis and decay,
while the socialist system Of the Soviet Union rises
of the Fiye-Year Plan is having the most apparent
revolutionary consequences among the masses Of work
ers in the United States and of the entire world.
For exactly the same reason that the capitalists are
filed with panic, fear and hatred against the Soviet
Union, the workers filed with hope and love for
the dictatorship of the prolear1at which has made
the achievements Of the Soviet Union possible Work
Understanding that the Soviet Union is really
their only fatherland.
The workers will not hrht against the Soviet Union.
The workers will rally for the defense of the Soviet
Union The Communist Party is leading and organ-
zing the struggle against the mpertalis and for
the defense of the Soviet Union.
That is why the workers are turning towards the
Communist Party and that is why the Fish Committee
is Investigating Communism with view to find new
measures to suppress the workers and the Communist
Party part Of the preparations for
The revelations made by the trial Of the counter
revolutionary industrial Party" in Moscow showing
that the imperialst powers under the leadership of
France have prepared armed attack upon the
Soviet Union in 1884, has exposed in its details what
the class conscious workers have known for years
going on behind the scenes.
The revelation of the American capitalist particpa-
ton in this plot through the fnarcing of counter
revolutionary groups within the Soviet Union shows
that American capitalism is more and more going into
the imperiaist front against the Soviet Union
The recent speeches of Admiral Pratt and of Hooyers
Cabinet members. Wilbur and Hyde, show that this
plot reaches into the very center of the United States
government
The work of this Fish Committee has also been init
mately hooked up with this whole international con-
Spiracy openly exposed by the of the noo-
this committee by such leading traitors to labor as
Matthew VOL. by the Popes agent Father Walsh
and the whole campaign led by the Fish Committee
for the breaking of trade relations with the Soviet
Union
The purpose of this committee is not only the sup
preston of the working class at home but to prepare
a bloody war against the Soviet Union
Hypocritical Nonsense
This committee has spent many months trying to
convince the public that the Communist Party is an
organization of criminal violence for the purpose OF
preparing the ground for the suppression of the Com
munis Party. This is nothing but hypocritical non
sense.
If the theories of this Committee were logically car
ried through the committee would have to call before
its bar to face the accusation those who died
on the battefiads of the American revolution in the
struggle to free the United States from the rule of the
British landlords. ~s4
These revolutionists Of capitalism who freed America
from feudal European rule found out that the ruling
class of Britain refused independence to the colonies
in spite of the overwhelming desire Of the people
expressed in the provincial legislatures. -
When the British ruling class met these demands
for independence with armed force, these early rev.
outionsts found that government is not matter of
majority votes but of organized power which does
not give way to the desires of the majority but only
to greater power
1t was then that they decided that it was their
right that it their duty to throw off such gov
eminent and to provide new guards for their future
security"
American history gives us another example of the
principle when with the election of Lincoln and
the overwhelming majority voted out of power in the
United States government the southern slave holders
these slave holders who took up arms to maintain
their particular system of exploitation against the will
Of the majority.
Only armed struggle succeeded in eliminating the
institution of chatte slavery The same law of history
will operate in the transition from capitalism to social
ism.
A Bloody Path
The bloody path that capitalism is travelling TODAY
over the lives of the workers is conclusive proof that
when the workers who the majority will become
convinced by their own experience of the necessity
changing the capitalist order based upon private prop
erty and the enrichment of the few into a society
based upon common ownership of the means of pro-
ducton and the well-being of the masses then the
capitalists will their last gun and their last dollar
in defense of the only constitutional principle they
ever really held Sacredthat is the unrestricted right
to make profit out Of the misery of the masseswhen
the workers who are the majority will demand change
from the rule of the few to the rule of the manv
then armed violence will be the last trump card of
the capitalists
Preparing the Workers
The Communist Party is preparing the working
class for that day When the capitalist minority will
attempt to maintain their class rule against the will
OF the working majority, the Communist PARTY pre-
pares the working class to carry in the prolearan
revolution that principle announced by the Colonial
revoutiosts in the Declaration of Independence that
1T is the right, it the duty" of the working masses
TO throw of such government and to provide new
guards for their future security"
The only possible guard for the future security of
the working class is the dictatorship of the proetariat
and the establishment of Soviet government
