an international association Of
Workers-represents the amalgama-
ton of the Communist Parties of
individual countries, a united world
Communist Party.
"As the leader and organizer of
the revolutionary movement of the
world prOletariat, as the bearer Of
the principles and aims of Commu-
nism, the Communist International
fights to win over the ma jority of
the working class and the broad
masses Of poor pessantTy for the
establishment of a world dictator
ship of the DrOletariat, for the Gre
alton of a world Union of Socialist
Soviet Republics. for the complete
elimination of the classes and for
the realization of sOcialism-the
first stage of Communist society,""
The Communist Party of the So
Wet Union is the strongest link in
that world party of millions united
under the Communist Interna-
tionaI. 1t is not in the position of
an opposition Party, it is the ruling
Party in the Soviet Union, the larg-
est federation Of states. The In
ternational, the world Communist
Party, discusses the political situa-
ton with all its affiliated parties in
all countries.
THE COMMUNIST INTER-
NATIONAL A WORLD PARTY
The Communist International, TO
which all sections are directly re-
sponsible, is not an organization of
conspirators, but a World Party. Such
a World Party does not play at revolt
and revolution. Such a Party, dear
DR.. Sack, [Dimitroff glanced in the
direction of the defense lawyer1 does
not know any double-entry booEheep-
ing. ITO which Sack retorted: Go
on, continue your propaganda."l
Such a Party when it appears to
the millions of the proletariat, when
it passes its decisions on policy and
immediate tasks, does so very serious
ly, with full realization of it's re-
sponsibilities. 1t does not indulge in
double bookkeeping.
Dimitroff further cited passages
from the resolutions of the 18th Plen-
airy Session Of the Executive Com
mittee of the Communist Party, add
ing that since these resolutions were
cited in the court he had a right to
quote them.
QUOTES FROM 18th PLENUM
RESOLUTION OF C. L.
Dimitrof quoted from the resolu-
lions Of the 18th Plenum of the Ex-
ecutive Committee of the Communist
International, stating that the task of
the German Communist Party, as set
forth in these resolutions, was as
follows
'To mobilize the millions of toll
ers in defense Of their vital in
terests, against their being plum
dered by monopclist capital, against
faScism, against emergency DEGREES,
against natiOnalism and ch2uvinism
and through the spreading Of eco
nomic and political strikes, through
the struggle for prOletarian inter
natiOnalism, through demonstra-
tons to lead the masses to a gen.
eral political strike; to win over
the basic Social-Democratic masses,
TO completely overcome the defects
in trade union work. The chief
slogan with which the Communist
Party of Germany must counter
act the slogan of the fascist die
tatorship ("The Third Empire'D, is
the slogan of the Workers and
Peasants Republic, i.e., Soviet So
cialist Germany, which would guar
antee also the voluntary incorpO-
ration of the peoples of Austria and
other German regions"
