ask: Since Mr.. Eccles is to be

Lenin,s Teachings Once Again
Borne Out by Recent History

capitalism was raised, that is. the
question OF the seizure of state
power.
The failure to gain the victory in
both Of these countries was due to
the fact that the working class did
not have at its head the party
trained in Leninism and fully
versed in the greatest accomplish
ment of Lenins genius, the prole-
tartan revolution in Russia.
In Austria the workers, saddled
by the death grip of the social
democratic old men Of the sea, the
Bauers and Adlers, we're held back
from the fight against fascisrn until
the master class had insured itself
Of the victory.
The working class of Austria de-
sired fight to the finish. 1t hero
ically proved its ability to make the
greatest sacrifices for the over
throw of capitalism, but it was
forced into defensive armed upris-
ing, resulting in it's defeat. This
defeat has now led the majority of
the Socialist workers of Austria to
realize that the feminist goal of the
proletarian dictatorship, the strug-
gle for Soviet power, is the only
guarantee for the defeat of fascism.
While the Austrian workers had
learned from the treacherous be-
trayals Of the German Social-dem
ocratic leaders, and did not sub
nit without an inspiring battle,
shoulder to shoulder with the Com
munist Party, the Spanish workers
carried to still greater heights their
revolutionary fight against fascism.
In the province Of Asturias, Spain,
where the workers followed one
hundred per cent the banner of
Leninism, the road of Soviet power,
the victory was won. 1t was only
because the Socialist leaders, and
more particularly the Anarchist be-
trayers, prevented the complete APP
plication and carrying out of
Lenin's revolutionary program and
strategy, that the red flag of the
victorious proletarian revolution
does not today fly over Spain.
All mistakes made in the course
of the October armed battles in
Spain, which impeded the triumph
of the revolution, were precisely the
failure to carry into action the his
torical revolutionary experience of
Communism, developed to its
highest point by Lenin's genius.

Struggles Show Truth
Of Leninism

proletariat now stand head taller,
its ranks stronger, steeled for great
er decisive battles, because in its
failures and mistakes it has learned
more thoroughly the correctness of
Lenin's way, the only way which
achieved victory for the working
class in one sixth of the globe, and
the only way which holds that VIC
tory against every counter-revolu-
ttonary assault.
In the rapid strides of the whole
inlperialist world towards a new,
bloody imperialist war, Lenin's
analysis of imperialism receives
daily a thousand-fold confirmation.
In the fight against faseism, the
Communist Parties in Germany,
Italy, Austria are forging the in
Strun1ents which inevitably will give
death thrust to fascism, and its
rotten source, decaying capitalism.
These Parties drank deeply from the
well of feminist teachings on under
ground revolutionary work, the
combination of legal and illegal ac-
tivities; the preliminary prepara-
ton for illegal existence and strug-
gle, and the building of the united
front for the storming of capitalism.
The Soviet Union, with its So
calist construction, is a living, tow
ering monument to the correctness
of Lenin's teachings. Despite all
the howlings of the Trotzkyites
about the failure of Socialism in the
Soviet Union, in which chorus they
bay in unison with the coyotes of
the CzariSt remnants and the fas-
cists enemies, Socialist upbuilding
speeds ahead from victory to VIC
tory, firmly guided by the teach
ings of -Lenin through his foremost
disciple, Stain.
Nowhere have Lenins ideas and
thoughts proven more fruitful than
in the revolutionary peace policy of
the Soviet Union. Every move for
peace has followed Lenins way. The
Soviet Union has been able to uti-
lie every contradiction, every
breech among the imperialist ban
dts to block and stave off war, to
assist the workers throl ,hout the
world to strengthen and steel their

ranks for the inevitable offensive
against the war-mad bosses. Every
day Of peace, forced by the mighty
power Of the invineible armed forces
Of the Soviet Union plus the revo-
lutionary diplomacy of the U. S.
s. r., helps the advance of Socialist
construction in the U. s. s. r.,
raises higher the walls of the fort
ress of the world revolution.
This Is the way of Lenin.
The near future, certainly
fraught with even greater storming
Of the heavens of capitalism, will
raise to greater heights the power
of Lenin's teachings as the greatest
weapon for victory in the entire
arsenal of the working class and
colonial peoples of the whole world.
NO wonder the Shiny Hearsts rave
and rant against Lenin, the mas
ter guide of the path to the die
tatorship of the proletariat. No
wonder the Hearsts and the Trotz-
kys, each in his own sdllful and
specialized way, try to sully the true
teachings of Lenin.
This eleventh anniversary of the
death of the great revolutionary
leader emphasizes, in the course Of
the bitterest experiences Of the class
struggle, the correctness, the abso-
Lutte indispensibility of lessons that
Lenin so ably taught.
To know Leninisn, the Marxism
of the epoch Of imperialism and the
proletarian revolution, is to know
the only road to the victory of the
world revolution.

lie ninist Analysis of
NRA Contrasts With
Socialist Theories
BY Harry Cannes

Whether 1t is the course Of the
New Deal, or the heroic, world blaz-
ing battle of the Spanish miners in
Asturias, the genius of Leninism re-
oeived brilliant confirmation.
The intense and bitter struggles
OF the working class and colonial
peoples throughout the entire world
during the past eventful year,
proved again to the hilt the cor
rectness of the revolutionary teach
ifigs of Lehin.
Examine, for instance, the So
cialist Party's theorizing on the New
Deal and the N. R. A. and see into
What miserable swamps it led the
working class. Contrast to it the
clear foresightedness, the brilliant
and accurate penetration of the
Communist Party analysis, based on
Leninism. The Socialist Party lead
ers saw in the N. r. A. a possible
peaceful path to socialism along
with a gradual Improvement of the
American workers. The Communist
Party, on the contrary, with the
scientific tools forged by Lenin, was
able to lay bare the real inner
significance of Roosevelt's program.
With the sharp knife of Lenin's
teachings, it was able to cut away
the rotten denlagogy concealing the
real intent of the big bankers of
the huge nnonopolies and trusts.
Clearly forseeing the N. r. A.
road of assault against the Ameri-
can toilers, the feminist Party in
the United States with the tactics
of Marxism-Leninism was able to
direct and lead the workers along
the path of day-to-day struggles, on
the road to revolutionary resistance
to capitalism.
Where the struggles of the ex-
plotted masses were the sharpesu,
there Lenin's teachings, the highest
advancement of Marxism, proved
themselves most.
The tenth year after the death of
the great working class leader was
especially rich in revolutionary bat
ties. In Austria and Spain the
highest question before the exploited
and oppressed in their fight against
