The characteristic feature of the actual processes of differentiation of the peasantry isc, that the middle group of the peasantry is not de- ereasing as is happening in capital- ist society, but on the contrary, is increasing on account of the diminu- tion of the poor group, whose smaller part is being proletarianized, and whose larger part is growing into the middle group. The series of data presented re- garding the condition of the boss peasant layer indicates that although during recent years this group has grown, their influence, however, re- mains insignificant. More Socialization. Molotov continued to point out the correctness of the policy pursued by the Soviet Union, which aims to limit the growth of capitalist elements. Molotov emphasized that the funda- mental task of the Communist Party must be to find the right economic ways to effect a transition from small individual-holding-economy to collectivism-economy.
