carry all the Matapeake traffic right
through Aurora street and the Clai-

make a direct connection to Aurora

used there would be turn at Dutch

Party of LeHin, Stain Leads Masses
To Soviet PoWer

Millions of the social-democratic workers,
viewing with bitterness and anguish the bank
ruptcy Of their mass organizations, are asking
themselves ever more frequently the agonizng
question-where is the way out?
And the Seventeenth Party Congress, the Con-
gress of the leading section of the Comintern,
to whose voice the whole world is listening,
gives its answer to this question. Yes comrades,
we know this way out, the way out Of the
threatening catastrophe This way out was
shown to the toilers of our country seventeen
years ago by Lenin, who ranks beside Marx and
Engels as a supreme genius Of human history
This way out is October, it is the victory of the
workers and peasants over the forces of the
old world, We know the means, tested already
by the experience Of great people by which
to put an end to wars ana fascism and to
capitalism which breeds them This means is
Soviet power, the slogan of which is now, in ac-
cordance with the decision of the Thirteenth
Plenum of the EC.CI., becoming the central
slogan Of the whole mass work of the Com
munist Parties We know the way which leads
to victory. 1t is the united front of the proIe-
tariat under the leadership Of the Communist
Parties in the individual capitalist countries It
is the united front of the world working class
under the leadership of the Comintern, the
front which, in union with the U.s.s.R and
Soviet China, constitutes an invincible force
Taking this path, we conquered in October,
because Lenin had forged a Bolshevik Party
with which the world Party of Leninism--the
Communist International created by him-is
now aligning itself He not only armed this
Party with the theory of revolutionary Marx
ism; he enriched and developed this theory for
the new epoch of proletarian revolutions and
wars. We conquered because he fostered those
Bolshevik cadres, the concentrated embodiment
of whose best qualities may be expressed in the

would look at the present time Il we had per-
mitted in its ranks freedom of factional group
ings and that freedom Of opinion" which was
demanded at one time or another by Frossard,
Trotsky, Hoeglund and others.
The Left" reformist leader Of the English
!. L. P, Brockwsy, in his correspondence with
the Comintern also proposed that we form
new International and include In it the various
renegade outcast groupings with whose help the
bourgeoise is trying to pulverize the forces Of
the working class The path taken by these
groupings leads into the camp Of the bour-
geoisie, and We do not need new International,
for we are not going to exchange Leninisn for
Brockwayism. (Applause)
The way to the unity of the working class
does not lie in the creation of new, intermediate
Internationals but in the political liquidation
Of social democracy as the Party which betrays
the working class, and in the strengthening and
consolidation Of the Communist International.
In this alone lies the salvation of the working
class from fascism and imperialist wars And
the Seventh Congress Of the Comintern which is
being convened this year must become Con-
gress of the gathering together Of the revolu-
tionary forces of the working class for the
struggle against faseism, imperialist wars and
capitalism.

School is good, but this alone is not
enough. I believe that the first
task of every new member should be
to attend a New Members Glass"
and even this is not enough. There
is no reason why each section
should not have other classes, such
as Principles of Communism, Party
Organization, etc. We must remem-
ber that only small percentage of
our comrades can go to the workers
school. Wherever possible classes
should be arranged in the sections.
Then comes up the question of
instructors. If class for inStruc-
tors could be arranged, where lead
ing comrades from the sections
would be instructed in the best
methods of conducting classes. In
this way this question of instruc-
tors can be solved. We cannot un-
derestimate the value of study cir
cles. Only one unit in our section
has as yet become interested in
study circles. This unit had con-

Quoted study circle for some time,
The response is good. Some six or
eight non-Party members as well as
the Party members attend. This is
a shop unit, although not in a basic
industry.
Political Discussions in the units
also play a great role in Qualification
of the comrades. District outlines
have been utilized for some time.
We call comrades together who
are capable of leading discussions,
and go over the outlines with them,
In this way we are reasonably sure
that discussion is carried on in the
Unit.
At this time, when We are APP
preaching revolutionary situation,
when we are accepting thousands of
workers into our Party, we must
exert every effort to raise the poll
tical level of the comrades. Only in
this way can We develop cadres
Only in this way can we reach the

Do our comrades take advantage

The BOIsheDik Stamina of the
Communist Party

The Importance of the path travelled by the
Comintern consists in the fact that the voice
of Liebknecht is not a solitary voice as it was
in 1914. Thousands of Liebknechts in the capi-
talist countries are now holding high the ban
ner of world proletarian revolution to-day and
will hold it yet more strongly tomorrow in
the event of new imperialist war. (Applausel
And here, comrades, it is not case of the
testing of individual people. Whole parties
have already stood this historical test Is not
the conduct and the work of the Communist
Party Of Germany under the conditions of

made some progress although as
yet very weak.
In the past some attempts were
made by the M.WIU. to organize
the seamen. However, with the lack
of proper guidance from the Party
the comrades were either taken
away from that work and put into
another field without replacing
them, or else they became demora-
lized in one way or another and
left, mainly due to the lack of food,
and to this date we have no tabs
on them.
Our task must be to correct our
tactics at once.
With the opening of navigation
the bosses and shipowners aim to
put into effect the NRA slave codes.
These codes will mean wage cut
of 20 per cent and over to the sea-
men, longshoremen, coal and ore
dock workers, etc, employed on the
lakes.
The duty of the Party members
must be to mobilize all of the work
ers to fight these attempts of the
bosses, and the only way it can be
