Historical March Days for the
Proletariat

National Guard, appears on the scene Origin
ally 1t only had the intention to control the &C
tivity of the government in regard to the de-
tense of Paris and to secure the supplies of the
working population of Paris
These were the original tasks of the district
councils elected in the twenty Paris districts and
of the elected Central Committee of the Ma
tional Guard.
This however sufficed Theirs and the gov
eminent of the so-called National Defense"
Immediately realized the danger of this double
government The Paris workers were to be dis.
armed, the real defenders of Paris and France
were to deliver up their weapons. The Paris
workers did not hand over their arms but in
stead won the victory over the counter-revolu-
tionary Versailles army. The nebulous social
Republic" of February Mrach l848. thus OBJ
tanned its historical form by proving that a
social Republic must be won in open fight
against the national government" The next
revolutions on higher stage were to draw the
lessons from February-March, 1846, and March
May. 1871
March, 1917. The hnperiast chain broke at
its weakest link Tsarist rule was swept away
in few days by the revolutionary storm. The
Russian proletariat under the leadership OF the
Bolsheyist Party, appropriated the lessons of the
European revolutions. Lenn and the Bosheviki
realized the teachings of Marxism on the bour-
geois revolution, which lis only the immediate
prelude to the proletarian revolution" (Commu-
mist Manifesto). They applied the experiences
not only of the revolution of 1905 in Russia but
also of the Paris Commune in 1871 to the revo-
luton in Russia, e., its development into the
proetarian revolution
l84S, 1871 1917-three revolutions III March
which are Of tremendous importance for the his
tory of the Labor Movement and the emancipa-
ton OF he proletariat.
The March revolution of l84S in Germany took
place under much more developed conditions
than for instance, the English revolution in the
18th century and even the French revolution,
l789-1794 The forms of the class struggle were
already more advanced, there existed to some
extent a class consciousness OF the proietariat
Hence, one of the most important demands of
the Communist Manifesto was--the constitution
of the proletariat as an independent class as
class as SUCH Hitherto the proletariat has
only fought against the enemies of its own enc
mics, only against the feudal lords and the
landowners in the interest of the bourgeosie:
every victory has exclusively become victory OF
the bourgeoisie, whist after the victory the bour-
gecisie proceeded, hand in hand with the Junk
ers, against It's allies Of yesterday.
The establishment of tne bourgeois Republic
is only short episode on the way to the eInan-
cipation OF teh proletaIiat. Nay MORE The
actual Sight of the proletariat against is imme-
diae oppressor-the bourgeosie-only starts with
the overthrow of the monarchy for the bour-
geois Republic is the best form for the explota-
ton of the working class by the ruling bour-
geosie
This was one OF the most important lessons

THE l4th Plenum Resolution places the Party
i before a practical test. The very opening
paragraph of the resolution gives the key note
of the line and decisions of the last Plenum.
1t states g. our Party has not yet made the
essential change in its work necessary for the
carrying out of its chief immediate task. This
task is to overcome the isolation of the Party
from the decisive masses of the American Pro-
letariat as their vanguard in the struggle against
the offensive of the bourgeoisie and against the
imperialist war, and to firmly root itself in the
decisive industries by means of solid personal
contacts with the workers.
What is one of the first conditions for over
coming the isolation of the Party from the de-
cisive masses Of the American proletariat"? The
entire Party, every individual member must I'M
derstand the reasons for the serious situation
facing the Party, the possibilities that exist for
overcoming the weaknesses and shortcomings
and the methods for bringing about the essen
tial change in the mass work of the Party. Thus
the Party can be mobilized for carrying out the
Resolution
The Party must not merely read but study
the resolution of the Plenunl. What do we mean
when we say the Party must study the reso-
lutions how shall they be studied? Self-criti
cism is the method for the study and under
standing of the Resolutions.
Every phase OF Party work, particularly ''tbe
radical improvement of the situation in the re-
evolutionary unions is the key task of the Party"
drom the resolution) must be taken up and dis
cussed in light of the present experiences and
apply concretely the resolution of the Plenum
as the guide for coming closer to the decisive
sections of the working class.
The great majority of our membership is new.

ponent part of that movement. Precisely this
growth of a Negro working class is most i'm
portant phenomenon of recent years. This work
ing class in the crucible of sharpening class
struggles, is rapidly lberating itself from the re-
dictionary influences of the Negro misleaders as
represented by Mr.. Kelley, and, together with
the white workers, is embracing Communism as
its weapon in the struggle against American
imperialism. Thus, there has at last appeared
among Negroes that class which, as an organic
part of the whole working class, is the only force
capable of rallying and leadin gthe oppressed
Negro masses in the struggle'for national liberia
tion--a struggle which, inspired largely by the

the membership if we, in addition to the gene
eral discussions also use the method Of solid
personal contacts" with the new members (also
as a means of establishing solid personal con-
facts with non Party workers., in explaining
the meaning of the resolution. But not only
mere explaining The new members, every mem
Der who is in contact with workers, and
must become the source of learning to know how
the workers think and how we must improve
our methods of coming in contact with them.
This means that the broadest discussion must
be developed in the Party.
In the past, we followed the practice of set
ting a certain time limit for the discussion OF
the Plenum resolutions. This is absolutely
wrong. The discussion must be continuous. In
the sense that we must consult the resolution
for every phase Of important mass activities.
Only such a method is the best guaranty, against
formal abstract discussions.
The theological struggle against opportunism
in practice has been neglected. AS against the
old factional habit of deviation hunting, we
went to the other extreme of rotten liberalism.
Both are wrong The struggle against opportn-
ism must be taken up as means of mobilization
for mass activities Such a struggle raises the
political level Of the membership. 1t creates the
interests for theoretical problems, lays prac-
ticsI basis for theoretical studies and is guar
anty against scholastic approach.
The Resolution of the Plenum must do away
with every trace of self satisfaction. A real
practical discussion combined with a politica.
understanding of the period We live in will
eliminate self satisfaction.
The Party is at a turning point Hard work
combined with revolutionary ZEAL should be the
spirit in which We will carry through the dis
cussion of the Plenum Resolutions.

full impetus in recent years.
All of these developments are being rapidly
FASTENED at the preset time by the sharpening
crisis Of dying world capitalism the growth OF
terror against the Negro masses, the increase
in lynchings, ETC. 1t is this fact that Mr.. Kelley
and other misleaders cannot, or do not wish, to
understand. But it is this very fact that forces
Mr.. Kelley and other editors of bourgeois Negro
papers to write about Communism, to misrepres
sent it, because it is challenge to the traitor

indulge in celebrating the coming Fourth of July.
The Paramount Issue

In the midst of all the polite al jockeying which is inseper- able from a presidential cam- paien, the paramount issue which interests the American people as a whole is that of un- employment. When millions who are begging for a chance to work are denied an honor able means of earning a liveli- hood, all other problems seem insignificant.
 The efforts of politicians to place the blame for present conditions on this party or hat, are manifestly insincere and futile. No political party, no official or group of officials of the government, can be held responsible for the unhappy ec- oromic plight of this nation and of the world.
 The best brains of America and other nations have long oeen devoted to an earnest eff tort to find a solution to the worlds economic problems, but without success. Here and .here remedial has given a small measure of relief. But broadly speaking, the prob lem is still far from a solution.
 It might be well, therefore, for the mass of our citizens to discount the claims and count ar claims of politicians during he forthcoming campaign and demand a facing of these prob- lems on the basis of reality rather than theory.
 Whenever either of our pol itical parties can give any con- vincing evidence of real ac- complishment in the direction of restoring prosperity, that party should have the support and applause of the general public. But until such a show

Freedoms Anniversary

On July 4 the American peo- pie will celebrate the 156th an- niversary of the Declaration of Independence, that immortal document which was made ef- fective through the blood of our illustrious forefathers and which was intended to vouch- safe to the citizens of this nat ion the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
 It is highly fitting that this historic date should be cele- brated. It is also fitting that the principles enunciated in the Declaration should be reaf- firmed, as they will be, by orat- ors throughout the land.
 It might also be we'll to recall on this occasion the important privileges set forth in the first ten amendments to the Consti- tuition, popularly known as the Bill of Rights.
 But, without disparaging the accomplishments and progress which have been made in these 1856 years, it is pertinent to in- quire just what measures of liberty, freedom and independ- ence is accorded to the aver age American citizen in this year of 1882.
 Is he not encompassed with a multitude of laws, regulations a n d restrictions exceeding those imposed upon any other supposedly free man? Is he not subjected to the whims of an army of Investigators, spies and snoopers which he must support out of his slender earn ings under present adverse conditions? Are the people secure in their persons, hous- es, papers and effects, against unreasonable searches II d seizure,s," as contemplated by the Fourth Amendment?
 Honest answers to these vital questions will indicate just how enthusiastically we may

Developments at the Daly- Alaska are producing most gratifying results, according to managing director Pat Daily. This spring he has proved the existence of three more ore zones, any one of which is equal to the original discovery. The four zones lie parallel, from 25O to 500 feet apart, and are from 75 to 200 feet in width. Assays taken across the zones give values from $7 to S15, while samples from var ious sections from 6 to 2 feet in width give $1O0 or better.
