I crevices of the Soviet social edifice,
hiding with hatred in their hearts,
with savage malice, do they recog-
nize that the lower classes proved
not only stronger but cleverer than
they? No. They cannot recognize
this.
Prom abroad the joyful informa-
ton reaches them that there are
countries where the workers lead
erS are publicly executed, where on
the headsman's block there fall the
heads of persons akin to those who
in the Soviet Union are building
MagnitogorSks and converting for
mer estates into collective farms
and state farms. There are countries
where they shoot like dogs those
same workers who in the Soviet
Union not only have taken the
state power in their hands but have
also become the masters of their
own minds.
FasciSm Cheers White Guards
1.-THE information arrives from
abroad that the knights of exploita-
ton have tried with an iron hand
to hold back the wheel of history,
to stamp out the spark of the World
October Any information of fascist
brutality abroad enlivens the hopes
of these despicable relics of the
Russian counter-revolution. These
are the riff-raff, the social scum not
representing any mass force, lice
bred from filth and dirt, lice which
the Soviet Union has not yet had
time to crush. But even a louise can
bite.
But besides this riff-raff are
those who inspire their hopes. These
people do not live in robbers dens.
In their laboratories they scienti-
f1cally breed bacilli of disease-the
new means of the future world war.
For the fascist revolution
to admit that the system which
created Kirovs has finally conquered
means to admit that their entire
power, built on the hundreds Of mil
lions Of trustified capital, is built on
sand. To recognize that they can
not any longer destroy the work of
the Soviets means for the fascists to
recognize they were born too late.
In their hands are billions in money,
armies, jails, galloWs. Therefore they
do not want to recognize their in
evitable doom, therefore they are
preparing for battle. And one of the
tactics of this battle is the creation
of centers of disorder in the Soviet
Union, the country of the Socialist
order.
Enemy Mistaken
In the days following the shot
which killed Kirov the Soviet work
ing class showed the enemy that
he was mistaken, that he was mis-
taken by about seventeen years. The
international -mongers of fas-
cism are trying to write the history
of the world afresh. They write
their history praising mailed fist
stained with the blood of slaves who
dared to raise their hands against
the power of the possessing classes.
If the gentlemen who once defended
their property, the Cavigniacs and
the Bismarcks, had written this his
tory seventeen years ago, they might
have said:
Well, did the heroism of the
fighters of 1848 and of 1871 help
the proletariat, did this labor and
blood shed by the fighters of the
working class help?'
But now in 1884 we can ask the
candidates for the posts of world
hangmen:
Well. did all your efforts di-
rected against the workers and
peasants government created by
Lenin help? You made war on the
Soviet Union, you starved the Soviet
Union by blockade, you shot at US
from behind, you attempted to de-
stroy our factories. And what was
the result? Today you must recog-
nize that we are the strongest power
in the world. You must prepare a
world war against us. Studying his
tory to find in it assurance of the
success of your hangman's work,
you gentlemen forgot to notice one
small thing. You didn't notice the
/ Communist Party
The Power of the Party
/ THE slave-owners flogged the
slaves who rebelled in despair. But
the slaves were only linked together
by chains. They were not Joined by
origin, by common faith, by the
thoughts produced by joint struggle.
The landlords fiogged rebellious
peasants because in their scattered
thousands Of villages the peasants
were limited by the horizon of their
own neighborhood, had not the
knowledge for the direction of a
state, nor united will, not a single
organization.
