THERE is no diSputing the fact that the un-
Aprecedented tempo of economic development of
the USS.R during the past few years, and the
splendid successes in the accomplishment of the
Five-Year Plan are really result of this social
list character of Soviet construction The cOllec-
tive socialist forms OF national economy open
heard-o vistas for the development of the pro-
ductive forces and the creative ardOr of the
greatest masses of the population. This is some
thing unknown to capitalism. The entire Five
Year Plan is built upon the unprecedented OPP
portunitieS presented by the collective socialist
forms Of the economic system. Here lies the
worldwide historical significance of the develop
ment which is taking place in the U.S.SR. and
which with every passing year and every new
stage Of progress, becomes an increasingly i'm
portant factor in the international proletarian
revolution.
The capitalist elements within the U.S.S.R. and
the International bourgeoisie with it's Social
Democratic prophets never tire of propheSying
that the USSR. will slide back to capitalism.
The economic development of the USSR dur
ing the past period, the expressed socialist char
acter OF the Fiye-Year Plan, the determined So
cialiSt offensive, the daring extrpation of the
roots of capitalism in the U.SSR, the splendid
progress made in the accomplishment of the Five
Year Plan, gave smashing blows to the hopes
and illus of the bourgeoisie. Instead of
return to capitalism, { ere is tempe uous tide
of socialism rising in the U.S.S.R. The leading
elements of international capitalism have now
come to understand it. This explains the in
creased hostility @ld aggressiveness a~anst the
Soviet Union and the feverish preparations that
are being made for new capitalist "holy crus-
ade" against the country of rising socialism.
For some years the Trotskyites degenerated to
the position Of the ,counter-revolutionary Social
Democracy, have kept up their Left" attacks on
the economic policy of the US.SR., claiming
that there is a Thermdor taking place in the
USST In the struggle against Trotskyism, the
socialist construction of the USS.R. is carried
on to victory In the midst of the struggle
against Trotskyism the great Five-Year Plan of
immense socialist projects was prepared and is
being carried into execution Not Thermidor
but mighty deveIopme of October is taking
place in the U,S.S.R. The anti-Soviet, counter
revolutionary nature of Trotskyism has been
mercilessly exposed. The leader of this group
has passed into the camp of the capitalist enc
mics Of the Soviet Union, but the overwhelming
mass of the Trotskysts have capitulated before
