The world-wide radicalization of the working class masses (as we see in our own American experience in the southern states) marks the direction in which the choice will be made. The rapid building. of the mass Communist Party must be the ma- terial expression of the choice. The winning of the majority, the de- cisive elements, of the working class is the task of the Communist Party in the period of the twelfth anniversary of the Revolution. But the capitalist class also chooses. The capitalist governments throughout the world are rapidly preparing to attempt to solve the insoluble contradictions of the capitalist system by means of imperialist war.
