the Party except to capitulate in face of the diff
ficulties to retreat in face of the resistance of
the capitalist elements. They were in despair
when faced with the task of liquidating the kuak
as class, task which confronts the Party.
The bloc of the Right 'Leftsts" Synzov-Lom-
inadze arrived at the platform of Right oppor-
tunism. But all the participants in this bloc,
among them being Syrzov, who are up to their
ears in the Right opportunist bog, attempted
even when they were exposed to pose as true
'Lefts"
The same Syrzov who repeated in 1927 Bukha-
rims slogan: Enrich yourselves!" who already
before the Sixteenth Party Congress converted
the struggle against the exaggerations in the COLI
lective farms openly into struggle against the
hundred per cent collectivization and the liqui-
dation of the kulak as class, who after the
Sixteenth Party Congress was finally seized by
a panicky mood which found expression in his
confused anti-Bolshevist pamphlet on the control
f1gures-this same Syrzov not only in words dis
sociated himself from the Right, but also gath
cred round himself a group of Left people, with
whom he joined the Shatzkn-L -Lominadze bloc.
The enhanced struggle of the Party against
Right opportunism led the genuine Right ele-
ments to side with the "Lefts" in order to mask
their opportunist character. But this is of no
avail! The Party is increasing its watchfulness
to unmasll all opportunism The Party will con-
tinue the most determined struggle on two fronts
against the opportunists and capitulaters, no
matter how they may mask themselves against
Right opportunism the main danger and
against its Left allies
The example of Lorninadze and Shatzkin shows
again and again how even small vacillations and
mistakes can lead the comrades far away from
the Party if they do not overcome in a Bolshevist
manner the petty bourgeois liberation of devi-
atious, if they are infected with the smallest
germ of Trotzkyism or Right opportlnism. This
applies especially in the present situation of ac-
centuated class struggle. Hence there follows:
ruthless struggle not only against any deviation
from the feminist line, but also against any kind
OF conciIatory attitude towards deviations and
any kind Of vaclationS.
The newest" opposition of Syrzov and Lom-
nadze did not openly oppose the general line of
the Party, which had only recently been approved
by the Sixteenth Party Congress, which is sup
ported by millions of workers. collective farm
peasants and toiling peasants and which is be-
ing carried out by the Party, under the leader
ship CT its feminist Central Committee in spite
of all difficulties and all hostile forces. But in
spite of its numerical, political and moral weak
ness this Opposition" tried to disintegrate the
feminist line and the feminist leadership of the
Party, the Party unity; it spread panic, and dis
belief in socialist construction and in the forces
of the working class, and that at time when
international Imperialism is preparing for inter-
vention against the Soviet Union at time when
the kuaks are offering obstinate resistance to
our socialist attack.
BY its joint decision the G. c. and the c. G. G.
of the Party have dealt severe blow to the
douhlc-faced capituaters. The Party is still more
closely rallying round its feminist leadership in
order to carry out the tasks set by the Sixteenth
Party Congress: to establish socialism in the So
Wet Union while removing from its path the
pitiable handful of capitulaters.
