The present situnation seems stable, but the fascisti are keeping down the workers ‘by using terror and violence. Fascism has not the cour- age to continue its revolution. The presentation of the electoral law by Mussolini shows that fascism is tak- ing recourse to the lowest methods of, bourgeois parliamentarism. Now that the proletarian revolution im- pends, the .fascisti and the opposition will unite against the Communists in a last attempt to save the bourgeois state. “The use of force by Mussolini showed his weakness, which is shared by the opposition, for both need the proletariat, and they are following us toward the Communist revolution.” Comrade Grieco declared that Mus- should cireularize every local union in the international outlining Hutch- eson’s attitude. The meeting lasted until 11:30 p. m. during which time many delegates expressed resentment and disgust at the attitude of Hutcheson and lite lag flunkies.
