The Bulgarian peas- ants could be organized not only for an agrarian revolution, but also | > for the fight against capitalism and for socialism. Duncker, of Germany, then with- drew his objections to the form of the draft, but suggested that it be | entitled “Program Manifesto.” A short declaration of principles should be extracted, he said, and pasted inside Party membership book. The Congress should adopt the draft. Mikolos, of the Soviet Ukrainia, declared that the draft failed to mention the Leninist definition of the dictatorship of the proletariat as a class alliance of the proletariat with the non-proletarian toilers for the overthrow of capitalism, the de- struction of capitalist attempts at | restoration and the establishment of socialism. India Hails Draft. Narayan, of India, then declared that the Indian delegation wel- comed the draft. Its chief ad- vantage, he asserted, was its de- | tailed treatment of the colonial side |} of the World Revolution. Certain | points referring to the colonies, par- ticularly to India, should be more | clearly formulated, however. Re- garding the possibility of a tem- | porary co-operation between the | Communists and the native bour- geoisie, the Communists must never forget that the native bourgeoisie is | incapable of an honest fight against | British imperialism. The Indian Communist Party must utilize the differences between the native and | |the British bourgeoisies, but must never forget that the differences | | represent no more than a family | quarrel between two bourgeoisies.

Union Misleaders in Betrayal CHICAGO, Aug. ment issued today by the confer- ence committee of railroad man- agers attacking the taking of the strike vote by the Brotherhoods of Railway Trainmen and Conductors has unexpectedly revealed the bosses purposes behind the Watson-Parker as an instrument put over to prevent all strike activity of the railroad workers. 15.—A_ state- Although the union officials have done all in their power to ditch ae- tion on the part of the workers and have “arbitrated” the issue four times, the railroad magnates now at- tack the unions for their “refusal to arbitrate.” The move is seen here as a preliminary to a country- wide attack on the railroad workers standards, an extension of the most intensive speed-up now in force on the railroads. Discredits Law. The strike vote, the managers de- clare, is “imperiling the usefullness of the Watson-Parker Railway La- bor Act,” thereby revealing what they expected the act to accomplish. After the passage of the law the “New York Times” declared edi- torially that “a strike on the rail- roads is now inconceivable.
