Hundreds Register
For the Spring Term
of Workers School

It was announced yesterday at the
office of the Workers School that
several hundred workers had al
ready registered for the Spring
Term, which begins on February 8,
and that classes were rapidly filling.
The feature OF the Spring Term
is that a number of classes have
been organized with the special pur-
pose of training revolutionaries for
specific tasks in the labor movement.
Thus, for example, there is class
for those who are writing articles
for or editing shop paprs. This
class, which is given on Wednesday,
at $50, has for its instructor, Com
rade Gertrude Haessler, who has for
years been connected with shop pa
per work
Another new course is for those
active among Negro workers. This
course is symposium for Negro
and white workers. Three classes
are being given for the training of
public speakers and speech improve
ment. This course is aimed at de-
veloping corps of speakers for the
labor movement.
For those interested in literature
a new course, Social Forces in Con-
temporary Literature, with Com
rades Joseph Freeman and A. B.
Magill is offered. All workers are
urged to register early.

On the Murder
OF Liebkmecht
By V. I. LENIN.

The name of Karl Liebknecht is
known to the workers in all coun-
tries. Everywhere, and especially in
the Entente countries, this name is
symbol of the devotion of leader
to the interests of the proletariat, of
faithfulness to the socialist revolu-
ton. This name signifies the really
honest, the really self-sacrificing,
merciless struggle against capital
ism. This name is the symbol of
irreconciiable struggle against i'm
perialism, not only in words, but
also in deeds, of a struggle which
is ready to make sacrifices precisely
when zones own" country is gripped
by the fervor of imperailist VIC
tories.
All that is honest and really
revolutionary among the German
socialists, all that is best and most
convinced among the proletariat,
all the masses Of the eploited who
are stirring with revolt and grow
ing more ready for revolution-all
are with Liebknecht and the Spar
takists.
Noske, Ebert and Schiedemann,
these traitors and lackeys of the
bourgeoisie, have given free reign
to the German White Guardists,
these watch dogs of sanctified cap
italist property, to lynch Rosa Lux
emburg, and to kill Karl Liebknecht
by shooting in the back under the
obviously lying pretext that they
attempted to escape" At the same
time these hangmen shielded the
White Guardists with the authority
of government allegedly innocent
and allegedly standing above all
classes. 1t is impossible to find
words to express the whole BASTARD
Illness Of these executioners who
are supposed to be socialists. OBJ
viously, history has chosen a path
which the "labor lieutenants of the
capitalist class" must follow down
to the "last stage of fiendishness
and dastardliness. Let the little,
Predetermined Kautskyans in their
newspaper Freedom, demand
"court" composed Of representatives
of "all" socialist parties (these
lackeys still call the Scheidemann
executioners socialists). These he
roes of phillstine stupidity and of
petty-bourgeois cowardice do not
even understand that the court is
an organ of state power, while the
struggle and civil war in Germany
are precisely around the question,
who shall have this power: whether
the bourgeoisie, whom the Scheide-
MAINS will serve as executioners
and pogrom heroes, and Kautsky
as the glorifier of "pure democ-
racy," or the proletariat which will
overthrow the capitalist explotiers
and throttle their resistance.
The blood Of the best Of the pro-
letarian International, Of the unfor-
gettable leaders Of the international
socialist revolution, will weld TO-
gether over new masses Of workers
for the struggle. And this struggle
will lead to victory. Jan, 1919.

LENIN on the PARTY
and TRADE UNIONS
Union Must Be Class Struggle Organ. Party
Leads Fight For Revolution

work we will have to meet and
overcome the influence of the agents
of our class enemies who have be-
gun already, in the new class strug-
gle unions, to advocate political
neutrality" Especially outspoken in
this respect have been the Love-
stoneites and Trotskyites. The "po-
litical neutrality" of the A. F. Of
L. is open support of the parties
of the capitalist class and, con-
sequently, of capitalism.
Lenin long ago (19OS) wrote of
the anti-working class character of
the doctrine of neutrality for the
unions. He said: "The class inter-
ests of the bourgeoisie inevitably
produce tendency to limit the
unions to the small narrow activities
on the basis Of the existing system,
to remove them from any associa-
ton with socialism, and the neu-
trality theory is the theological garh
of these bourgeois tendencies. 49,"
We must win the masses for rev.
dictionary trade unionism and for
our Party program. The revolution
airy unions, which our Party leads,
and which in turn are the only forces
bringing masses into the struggle
and leading them in militant combat
in the industries against the oppres-
sion and robbery of the rulers, will
live and grow to embrace the decis-
i've sections of our class, will weld
them into an invincible weapon in
the struggle for power, if we carry
into all our work and Undue the un-
ions with the spirit and practice Of
I.enin's definition of the Party:
The Communist Party is a part
of the working class. To be pre-
else, it is it's most advanced, most
class conscious and most revolu-
tionary part. The Communist
Party is created by a section of
the best, most intelligent, most
sacrificing, most far-sighted work
ers. The Communist Party has
no interests other than those of
the working class. The Communist
Party differs from the entire mass
of workers in that it views the his
torical path of the working class
in its entirety and endeavors, at
the various stages of this path, to
defend the interests, not of indi-
viduals, but of the working class as
a whole. The Communist Party is
that politically organized lever
with the aid of which the most adj
vanced section of the working class
guides along the true path the en-
tire mass of the proletariat and
semi-proletariat.
