In what does this slogan differ
from the dearest wishes of the in
ternational imperialists, who dream
increasingly Of the overthrow of the
Soviet power? In what does the base
crime committed by Nikolayev-this
executor in actual practice of the
Trotzkyist Slogan-differ from the
daily practices of the fascist mur-
derers in Germany and other coun-
tries, where our proletarian broth
ers are martyred and murdered? In
nothing Here there is no differ
ence. TrOtzkyism and fascism have
found their common level. the com
mon point at which they employ
the like weapons.
1t must be admitted that among
certain sections of the working class
in the capitalist countries the
opinion has existed until recently
that Trotzkyism as a political tend
ency if not actually forming a con-
stituent of Communism, is at least a
constituent of the labor movement
This opinion has always been wrong
and today, now that Trotzkyism has
revealed its frightful role as fascist
agency by its moral, political, and
physical participation in the MUIR
der of Comrade Kirov, this idea is
more pernicious than ever.
Our comrades in the capitalist
countries are faced with the duty Of
tearing these weeds out by the roots
and Of exposing the real counter
ance of the Trotzkyists in every
place where they have succeeded in
forming their ounter-revolutionary
groups, very often with the direct
support Of the police. They must
be exposed for what they are:
decoys Of international fascist re-
action. There must not be, and
cannot be, even the slightest sug-
gestion Of any Cancellation towards
the counter-revolutionary bandits
The Trotzkyist bands have still

on the downward path, and finally
landed in the camp of international
fascist reaction. Today they do not
look at life in the Soviet Union and
at the successes of the Soviets with
proletarian eyes, from proletarian
standpoint; they see it all with the
eyes of the bourgeoisie, from the
standpoint of the class enemy. the
standpoint Of It's most reactionary
fascist elements. Hence their rage,
hence their hatred. The greater the
successes of the Party and the
Soviets, the greater the rage of the
international fascist reactionaries

agency.
Has Branches
This fascist, yes, fascist agency, Is
however, working not only working
in the Soviet Union, where Com
rade Kirov has fallen victim to it.
1t has It's branches in the different
capitalist countries. These are the
various groups of the Trotzkyists,
who are endeavoring, under the di-
rect leadership of the supreme
counter-revolutionary Trotzky, to
disorganize the revolutionary labor
movement. 1t must be stated
clearly: Just as Zinoviev in Mos
COW bears this responsibility, so
does Trotzky in Paris bear the full
moral and political responsibility
for the murder of Comrade Kirov.
And more than this: 1t was pre-
cisely Trotzky who was the first to
issue the slogan of the fOrcible over
throw Of the Soviet power, the
slogan of methods Of violence In
the struggle against "Stalinist bu-
reaucracy."
Same Slogan
In what does this slogan differ
from the standpoint of the White
Guardist bands? In what does it
differ from the line of Hitler fas-
cism and of the Japanese militarists?

forces behind the campaign for the
enactment of the Workers Unem-
ployment, Old Age and Social In

vicinity. All had been delegates to
the National Congress for Unem-
ployment Insurance which was held

Action Committee for Unemploy-
ment Insurance, plans were made
for setting up local action COM
mittees where such have not yet
been established. Each local COM
mittee will elect three delegates 10
the State Committee; Boston to
have five delegates. The entire
State Committee will meet again
within ten days. To coordinate the
work, a resident committee will be
set up in Boston.
In the plan of action, each local
committee will procure literature

gates will be chosen from the State
to attend the hearing on the Work
ers' Bill, H. r. 1927 at Washington;
one delegate from the shoe industry

affiliated groups will send in their
choice of nominees to attend the
hearings on the Workers Bill and
the State delegated body will decide
upon who will attend the hearings.
In order to finance these activi-
ties on a State scale, it was decided
that each affiliated organization
pledge to contribute not less than
one dollar a month.

LID. Upsets
Frisco Terror
Convictions

SAN FRANCISCO. Cal. Jan. %
In q decision which declares that
under the law Of California, Com
munism as a political faith is not
made q crime and that as a poht-
icsl party the Communists have q
status in this State equal to that
Of the Socialists, the Democrats ano
the Republicans" the Superior
Court last week reversed the YER
dict Of guilty against Harry Jack
son. Joseph H. Wilson and Elaine
Black. The three had been picked
up during the roundup of working
class organizers at the time of the
San Francisco Coast strike, and
foung guilty of "vagrancy." They
were defended by the Internationa.
Labor Defense.
When the arrests took place
Elaine Black was organization sec
rotary of the International Labor
Defense in California, and Wilson
its secretary. Jackson was West
Coast organizer of the Marine
Workers Industrial Union.
The evidence against the three
consisted chiefly of the testimony
Of Inspector Steel of the "Commu.
mist detail" Of the police depart
ment, who under the name Of The
odore Lindiner had entered the
Communist Party as spy anc
worked within 1t for two years.
Two main issues were involved II
the trial and in the appeal: whether
or not functioning as an organizer
for a working class organization
constitutes "vagrancy," and whether
or not membership and activity il
the Communist Party is in itself &
crime.
In forcing the court to admit tina
working class organizer is not {
vagrant and that membership il
the Communist Party does not con.
stiute q crime, the LID. won al
important victory for civil right
in California.

BY Klemens GottwaId


on Dec. l, 1884. of whom the victim
was one Of the best sons of the
working class, Comrade Kirov, has
aroused the fierce indignation Of the
international proletariat. Right from
the first moment it was clear to all
that this frightful crime could only
have been committed in the inter-
ests and on the orders of interna-
ttonal Observation-Disclosures in
ternational fascist reaction. But
when the inquiry brought to light
who had actually carried out this
murder order, eYerone was horTi-
fed. The vile murderers in the di-
rect pay Of International fascist
reaction turn out to be the last
remnants of the former ZinOviev-
TrOtzky group.
This handful of criminal elements
formed an illegal terrorist anti
Soviet organization, with the aim of
carrying out individual terror
against the leading functionaries of
the Party and the Soviet power.
They established contact with the
consul in Leningrad of a capitalist
state. They received financial aid
from him. They murdered Com
rade Kirov, and among their prep
arations were plans for the murder
of Comrade Stain.
BY means of such methods tbs
band hoped, according to their own
statements, Ito bring about an al
teration in the Party leadership"
Aware, however, that in the land of
the Soviets itself they were bound
to encounter the united and deter
mined resistance of the millions Of
people who gather like one man
around their Bolshevist staff and
around Comrade Stain, they set
their hopes on an imperialist war
on the overthrow of the Soviet
power by imperialist intervention.
This is the final result: Out of the
last remnants of the former anti
Party group, a group Of anti Soviet
terrorists developed, whose aim is
the overthrow of the Soviet power,
and whose method has been an al
lance with international fascism
and imperialism.
No Accident
Is this accidental Is it madness2
BY no meansl Even though it could
not be foreseen that this transition
to the platform Of international fas-
cist reaction would find expression
in such frightful forms as this
murder of Comrade Kirov, never
thelesS the Bolshevist Party and
Comrade Stain have repeatedly
pointed out the inevitability and
logical consequence of such de-
velopment to all who have followed
in the footsteps of Trotzky and Tin
oyiev, who have adopted their anti
Party platform, and have not re-
turned Immediately and sincerely
to the path of the Party.
1t may perhaps be asked: Have
these people then learnt nothing?
Have the first Five Year Plan, the
second Five Year Plan, the collect
ivization, the daily tangible success
ses of Socialist construction, the i'm
provements in the material and
cultural situation of the working
masses, the enormous growth of the
international influence of the Soviet
Union-have not all these and many
other facts shown to them that the
policy of the Party and It's leader,
Comrade Stain, is entirely right,
and that they themselves have been
wrong from the beginnings
Yes, the majority of theit former
adherents have come to this con-
clusion. But the last residue, a
handful of bandits, have continued
