Page Four Radek Replies to Zinoviev at World Communist Congress (Continued from page 1.) was active, and for this very reason, of course, mistakes occurred. The criticism of Hulla’s article, the policy in the elections in the Carpa- thian section of Russia, the policy in the agrarian question, are attributable in part to misunderstandings, and in part to incorrect information. The correct interpretation of the United Front policy and advantageous maneuvering in the agrarian question led to the disintegration of the ag- rarian party and the clerical party and shattered the Social-Democrats the united front, and secondly, sought for the watchwords for this united front. Aiter the Halle Party Confer- ence, every German Communist felt that we had already drawn to our- selves the workers who were for the dictatorships that meanwhile the great masses would not be won by the propaganda of the watchword of dictatorship; and that we must win them over by the putting forward gen- eral slogans in their daily struggles.

The Russian Peasant understands no Latin, he does not know what the dictatorship of the proletariat is, and this watch- word has therefore been translated, first into Russian, then into Germ: and into English, ete. On the basis of our Latin we have, in the years 1918, 1919, and 1920 torn away great masses of the social demo- erats, and after the Halle Conference we became a mass party.

M., at Web- ster Hall, 11th Street between 3rd Central 4945-4947 |and 4th Aves, against the dangers of the \united front with the clear perception that we may perhaps be forced, by a num- ber of transition stages, to a struggle for the dictatorship. Bukharin, in his report to the Rus- sian Party Congress last year, repres- ented the failure of the left wing com- rades to perceive that one must pro- ceed to the dictatorship by sages, as a left digression. (Freimuth: On the contrary.) We shall see. Freimuth says that he will proceed thru dictatorship to the Saxon workers’ government. (Freimuth: You say that.) It is said: It is not a matter of ab- stract formulae. The workers do not make these divisions. Of what do the masses of the workers, not only the Communists, think, when they speak of a workers’ government? In England they think of the Labo Party. In Ger- many, in the countries where capital- ism is in collapse, the workers say: the united front means that Commun- ists and social democrats do not fight aginst each other during strikes, but co-operate. The idea of the workers’ government has the same mefning for the working masses. They think of a government of all workers’ parties. Enter Coalltions. At the [Vth Congress of the Com- munist International we declared that in the interests of the revolution it '|might be necessary: 1. To propose to the mass of the workers to enter into a coalition even with the Social-Demo- crats. 2, To be ready in certain cire- umstances actually to carry out in practice and not merely to agitate for it. And how was that understood? It is not onl; mrade Smeral who does not find hitgself in a very cheerful Position at @, moment, who had reason to ex@iise himself on the ground that he. Was seduced. Quite a number of. the~comrades have been seduced by the influence of our com= rade Zinoviev. I have in my hand an article published by comrade Kleine on the first of February 1923. In this article, which is a polemic against the “Left,” written before the party con- gress and before Brandler’s thesis had been published, he says: “The readiness which recently we have so often shown to take the final decisive step by joining the common fight for the interests of the proletariat in compayy with the re- formist parties, is not a trick, it is not a tactical maneuver, but a sheer fact. And in the same way the pos- sibility which we have faced of a workers’ government is not a trick or an artifice. “Simply because the workers’ gov- ernment is not as yet a proletarian dictatorship but only the govern- ment of a labor party which has to rely on the extra-parliamentary fight- ing organization of the United Front, deviations in its policy are inevi- table.” Saxon Experience. Theat is what comrade Kleine said before the Party congress.\ Since that time we have been thru \pur exper- iences in Saxony end our \chairman, comrade Treint, has written an article on the results of the elections in France. This article ends with the words: “The Workers’ Government is a step towards the dictatorship.” He has also written an article for the spe- cial congress umber of the “Com- munist International” in which he again says that it is not a dictatorship but merely a stage forward. Yesterday he got up here and said he was “in per- fect agreement with Zinoviev, that his form of workers’ government is ad- mirable, that, in short, the Workers’ Government is the dictatorship of the roletariat in evolution.” (Exclamation from the German dele- gation: “A good road to improve ment.”) But it is not a question of who is in the wrong and who is in the right. Comrade Zinoviev is quite right when he says that at the IVth Congress we took a step which was opoprtunisti¢ whether we knew it or not; we can still learn something from tHat. Bulgarian Situation.

Bulgarian Communist Party proposed to the Bulgairian Social-Democratic Party, which had at one time sup- ported Zankow, to form a bloc. ‘hat is the first point. Next we decided here that the German Party was to take part in the Saxon government. After the defeat in Saxony our French comrades, with our consent, offered to form an election alliance with the Social Democratic Party in France, whe.e this is only possible by putting forward common tickets. Comrades, let us first examine the two steps which were taken without any catas- trophe resulting, where a bloc was not formed, because the opposition did not wish it. People talked in this sort of way: “Comrades, the labor government is the dictatorship of the proletariat. It is a synonym; it is a pseudonym,” I always understood that one used a pseudonym when one wanted to conceal something. But if I say, my name is Hasse, but I am Radek, then surely, comrades, this has no sense. Now for the third point to be ex- plained: how are the social democrats to be unmasked? We know that the social democrats. can and will never fight. But we propose to them that they should fight with us in order that Wednesday, July 16, 1924 — Comrades, I come now to the exam-|our progress.

What did they consist of? Comrade Zinoviev does not criticise the Com- munist Party tor not deciding to en- ter upon the struggle for power in October. He says in his thesis that it was right to avoid this, because we had no arms. He says, too: “Since up- risings and civil war are not under- taken in order to provide opportun- ities for an heroic death, but in order to win victory, it was wise to attempt them.” How does he criticise the at- titude of the party? He says that when we went into the Saxon govern- ment and it became evident that we could not grasp power, we should at least have demanded the arming of the proletarists and the socialization of industry, and that if the social democrats would not join with us in fighting for this, we should have broken with them and left them. He criticised Fritz Heckert for making a speech,in which he said that he stood by the onstitution. »Comrade Heckert should not have said that. It was non- sense to say that because his ad- versaries did not believe him. All over the country the party had spread ma- nifestos—“Workers Arm Yourselves,” A Tragi-Comedy. Comrades, the Saxon affair is no comedy, It is a tragic-comedy and not which logically follow from this. Now I want to say a few words about the organization of the Revolution. The organization of the revolution may mean that correct Communist tactics are adopted from the first moment when even a group of Com- munists are occupied in rallying the workers for the revolution, in organ- izing them for the fight, and in or- ganizing preparations for the fight un- til they become so wise that they grow into the party of the revolution. Or it may mean that we have reached a situation when we can calculate that within a given time, that is to say, at @ moment not far off, in the next months, or in the next weeks; we shall enter upon the decisive battle. To say this means that one must force the pace of the struggle to an extra- ordinary degree, it demands the most. extensive concentration upon military preparations—for if anybody says that one be a just get hold of arms, he is very much undervaluing the exper- iences of revolutions, and also the ex- periences of the Russian revolution. (Turning to the German comrades.) Comrades, you are simply talking in the air when you say we are ready to lead. the masses in their struggle ev- ery day!

That will be decided by whether we are a rad- ical party protesting in parliament, or whether we are a mass party prepar- ing the revolution. I beg Comrade Losovsky. who perhaps knows the sub- ject better, and is officially obliged to know about German trade union af- fairs, to come up here and say what he thinks about the direction our work is taking in the trade unions, There is, in the German party, a terrible passivity. This is very strong- ly emphasized in an article by a Ber- lin comrade in the Funke (The Spark). It is the one serious phenom- enon which must be examined. Comrades, you will say that the cap- italists throw our comrades out of work, they become unemployed, and cannot pay tlieir contributions; they leave the trade unions. You will say that Amsterdam: is kicking us out, That is true. The question only is: if we shall avoid everything which would make that easier for them or shall we do everything to make it im- possible for them.

Unity of the Workers. (Exclamation: “But the social demo- crats will never fight.”) We should be trampling the interests of the working class under foot if we did not honestly and without reserva- tion aim at the unity of the proletariat at every stage of its battle. Comrades, if the Executive allowed the Bulgarians and the French to do this, it cannot turn around now and say: “This was a proposal made with good intentions; but ke knew all along that it would not be accepted.” In September we decided that the German comrades should enter the Saxon government. They did enter it and the whole Executive was con- vinced that they had maanged the af- fair very badly. We had suffered a crushing defeat. And what did Com- rade Zinoviev write: about our entry into the Saxon government after his defeat? In his pamphlet on “The written after the defeat: Useful Experience. “The comrades who look only at the their perspective right. jumping-off ground. One cannot,-all at once, simply because the party has de- cided that one is to undertake the fight for power, enter upon actions which require a considerable time for their development, and which involve the masses of the people. The second lesson is still more im- portant. I am in absolute agreement with comrade Zinoviev that one can- not have a united front from above unless one has it from below. And it was the United Front from below which we had not organized; our fac- tory councils were divided into bits, they were nothing but separate atoms. The Central Committee governing the factory councils was no better than a shadow and we had not bound them to our party.
