| which Lenin bore for Russia. Just as Lenin saved his country from l the ruin brought about by capital ists, militarists, imperialists, so we must save our own land. The pres- ent crisis raises the problem of the revolutionary way out, as the crisis of 1776 raised the problems an- swered by the Declaration of In- dependence. Today's problems can be answered only by the teachings of Marx, Engele, Lenin and Stalin. But let us not forget that revo- lutionary solutions are not foreign to America. On the contrary, they are the only things vital and living in the American tradition. Today it is the communists, following Lcnin. who remind the American masses of those great words of the Declaration of Independence which we must again and again bring into every city. every factory, every vil- lage. every workers home, those words which declare:
 Whenever any form of govern ment becomes destructive of these ends Nife, liberty and the pursuit of Eappiness), it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to lhotitotC d hc" ldyiuS5 it's foundations on such principles, and organizing it's power in such forms, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.
 Followers of Lenin We will again recall those words of the Declaration of Independ- ence:
 "It is their right, it is their duty to throw off such 8 government and to provide new guards for ] their future security" ! We followers of Lenin will never | cease to quote these words. Nor l will we ever cease to point out that today, in 1885, such new principles can only be those of the dictator ship of the proletariat, such a now form can only be that of Soviet power, that safety and happiness for the masses can only come from the abolition of capitalism and the building of the socialist society.
 We are the party of revolution. That means that we can only repu- diate with scorn the islanders of the Dicksteins and the Hearsts, Wilfred J. Megin will head the who try to picture us as con- spirators, as bombers, as criminals, as those who plan to "kidnap the president" and similar nonsense designed to frighten the elderly Daughters of the American Revo- lutlon and the uneasy pirates of Wall St., whose consciences bother them.
 We are the party of revolution Of the masses, in the spirit of the D e a ra t i on of Independence, brought up to date, in the light Of the scientific teachings of Marx. Engels, Lenin and Stalin," from a speech delivered at Madison Square Garden, New York City, Monday, Jan 21, 1885.
 This is our position. We say that we, and only we, are the real Americans, because we are at- tempting to build society that will give to every one their ln- alienable right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Challenge The challenge any rcpresen- tativc or representatives of any or all of the organizations and individuals who are att tacking us to an open debate, to which the public of Water. bury will be invited. on the questions involved. Let the people of Waterbury decide for themselves who Is right. We are unafraid to state our
 position at any time, at any place.
 The Communist Party of Water- bury.
