Pravda Editorial on the Communist Infl
Appeal for the United Front

ternational is depriving the Social
Democracy of every possibility to say
that the Communists are against
unity, when it deals with unity for
struggle. But it has pointed out suf-
ficiently clear that the Communists
will conduct a life and death strug-
gle against all who will violate the
conditions of the united front, who
will continue the policy Of agreement
with the bourgeoisie.
Social Democracy Hinders Resistance
to Fascisrn.
The Social Democracy must give a
clear and unequivocable answer
whether it is willing to struggle
against the bourgeoisie and Fascism,
or whether it will continue its policy of
agreement with the bourgeoisie, ex-
posing the working class to the will
fullness OF the Fascist reaction. If

agree to a real revolutionary struggle

come such united fronts. If the
Social Democrats will not accept the
proposals of the Communists, the en-
tire working class, even its most
backward strata, will know that only
the Social Democracy hin6ers the re-
sistance to Fascism and the defense
of the working class.
Particularly the German Social
Democracy faces today a choice
Whether it will go the way of agree
ment with the National Socialists
and thus achieve the possibility Of a
free existence of its organizations, or
whether following the Com nunists
it will go into struggle against the
Fascist dictatorship.
Whatever policy the social Demo-
Gratis will adopt, the united front OF
the working class is being created
and will continue to be created In
the struggle against the bourgeoisie
and Fascism. The influence of the
Communist Party as the organizers OF
this struggle, VIII grow, the Commu-
nists will offer decisive resistance tc
the offensive of capital and Fascism
Neither the Fascist terror nor the
treachery of the Social Democracy
will succeed to prevent the successes
of the Communist movement.
