Shatkzin, polemising Bukharin, said |that the development of trusts was an undoubted fact, though not the |main development of state capitalism, |polist capitalism generally. | “The tremendous trust development and their influence on the state was |observable in the United States be- fore the war,” he said, “but nobody will speak of American state capi- talism. A certain strengthening in state capitalism is observable only in Japan and Italy, while a contrary pro- cess’ is going on in Germany and France—namely the liquidation of |the remnants of state capitalism of \the war period. The right deviation lis not yet outlived in many of the C. I. sections. The recent Congress of the British Communist Party raised the slogan of the substitution of the Baldwin Government by a Labor Goy- ernment under the strict control of the Labor: Party Executive Com- mittee. The French Communist Party recently developed quite a consider- able group favoring the support of the Left Bloe pending the elections. Sections of the Austrian, Bulgarian, Polish and Chinese Communist Parties also ate infected with right devia- tions. One C€. I. task is an intensifi- cation of the struggle against these deviations.” Lominadze also emphasizes the presence of right deviations in C. I. sections, giving as characteristic the situations of the Chinese Revolution, tasks. “No doubt the Chinese Com- munist Party, considerably purged from opportunist elements, will be up to the mark in the coming conflicts,” he said.
