made on the basis of positive and indsputable

Life itself has proved that the enemies Of the
working class prefer Trotsky's history of the
revolution to Bolshevk history. Naturally it
serves their purposes much better.
IrotSky himself has proved in his latest bid
for imperialist liberation the necessity and cor
