Vol. VI, No. 219 8 Union Square, New York City, 21 SUBSCRIPTIO Outside New York, by mail, $6.00 ver year. Revolutionary Campaign of German Communist Party The vote of 566,000 workers for the Communist candidates in the Berlin municipal elections, giving the Party 56 seats in the city coun- cil—a gain of 13 seats, where the social-democratic party lost nine and the nationalists lost six seats—is a sign of the present upward trend of class struggle in Germany. The Communist Party has thus become the second political party in the city of Berlin, judged by the standard of votes cast—although the capitalist elections are no conclusive test of the strength of the revolutionary proletarian party. Unquestionably the Communist Party is rapidly rising to the position of the acknowledged leader of the whole toiling population of Germany. And its correct revolutionary leader- ship of the German workers in a thousand struggles on many fields ac- counts for this rise, Most significant of all is the fact that the revolutionary party made its gains as against the counter-revolutiona ist” party—the party which the German finance-capitali strike-breaking agency, their agency of social-fascism in the of the working class. ranks The party of the class-conscious workers has come to many bloody clashes with the social-democratic party, not only during the revolu- tionary crisis at the close of the world war, when the “socialists” Noske, Ebert and Scheidemann defeated the German workers’ revolution with wholesale slaughter, but many times since. American capitalist news- papers yesterday admitted that the big gains of the Communist Party in this last election are partly due to the bold leadership of the working class by the Communist Party in the struggle of last May Day. On that occasion the social-democratic chief of police, Herr Zoergiebel, for- bade the customary workers’ demonstration in Berlin and the workers under Communist Party leadership held the streets of Berlin for sev- eral days in armed combat with the “socialist” police of the capitalist government, Also the Communist-led struggle against capitalist ra- tionalizatien. which the “socialist” trade union bureaucrats are trying to put through in the factories, mines and workshops, has convinced hundreds of thousands of workers of the true role of the working-class party. Again in the hard-fought plumb: ke in Berlin the “socialist” minister of labor, Herr Wissel, declared as binding a cut-throat contract with the bosses that was put over against nine-tenths 6f the workers and undertook on this basis to break the strike, while Zoergiebel as chief of police threw into jail the executive committee of the union and five members of the strike committee, These and other struggles, in which the Communist Party was in each case the stubborn, resourceful and fearless leader of the workers and the Social-Democratie party always the outright strike-breaker and ally of the police, led to the time of the municipal election campaign. Just prior to the opening of the election period the social-demo- cratic mayor of Berlin, Herr Gustav Boess, made a visit to the United States, where he was feted and dined by bourgeois politicians of this country as a “constructive” hero of municipal government. But by the time Herr Boess returned to Berlin he found that the Communist daily “Rote Fahne” had discovered and exposed to the working class of Ger- many the fact that Herr Boess and a whole coterie of his “comrades” of “socialism” had put over some gigantic swindles and graft. Crowds of tens of thousands of infuriated workers met “comrade” Boess at the ship’s landing and at every stop of his train, forcing the grafter to hide himself in the protection of the police. The incident served to arouse the working class to the other crimes of the social-democratic agents of the capitalist class, as the “Barmat scandal” of social-democratic party graft had previously done. In the campaign the Communist Party waged a sharp fight on the basis of the most urgent partial demands of the working class, at the same time laying before the eyes of the workers the full revolutionary program and pointing out the necessity of the overthrow of the capi- talist class and its stool-pigeons, the social-democratic party. It would be an underestimation of the historical role of our Com- munist Party if we were to be too easily satisfied with this evidence of the growth and power of our Party in Germany. Much is still lacking even in the splendid German section of the Communist International. But what of the miserable whines of the renegades from the Commu- nist Party who predicted the bankruptcy of the Party? What of the whines of the yellow renegade Lovestone whose “Counter-revolutionary Age” only now is howling that the Communist Party in Germany, Czecho-Slovakia and the United States is “wrecked” by the throwing out of the renegades like himself who sabotaged the workers’ class struggle? The gains of the German Communist Party have been made in spite of the treacherous sabotage and opposition of the Ewert group of opportunists in Germany as well as the Brandler-Thalheimer gang which Mr. Lovestone, Mr. Wolfe and Mr. Gitlow now openly call their “comrades,” The results show that the slanders and woeful predictions of Mr. Hillquit (who says that the Communist Party is “unreal” and “almost completely collapsed”) and Mr. Lovestone, who agrees with Mr, Hill- quit, are so much bourgeois propaganda. ‘Our German Communist Party is nearing the time when it will lead the working class of Germany to the establishment of the second victorious proletarian tevolution and Soviet Republic—not through capi- talist elections, which are at best only an indication of the drift of the masses, but through the direct revolutionary overthrow of the capi- talist state. The Communist Party of the United States, which has so much to learn from the Bolshevik Party of the Soviet Union, can also learn much about revolutionary participation in bourgeois municipal elections from our brother Communist Party of Germany.

Bourgeois and socialist claims that the Communist gains were due entirely to the graft scandal in which the socialist mayor, Boess, was involved, do not reveal the whole story. The chief claim of the Communists being the appeal to workers that the socialist party is not a working class party but a bourgeois party of fascist charac. ter. The bloody suppression of the proletarian masses on May Day by the socialist police chief Zorbiebel, the strike-breaking of socialist trade union leaders was backed up by the graft charges in which not only the socialists but the fascists were involved. Recent campaign material of the Communists in the paper “Rote Fahne” show that notorious fascist leaders were given soft jobs in many city departments, one notary being paid 1,000 marks monthly, another fascist leader 800 marks a m-th, and others 600 marks monthly, while hundreds of workers stood in line at soup kitchens. On Saturday, fascists attempted to storm Communist headquarters at the Karl Liebknecht House, but were easily repulsed. On Sunday the fascists murdered a Young Communist, named Boehm. A great protest demonstration is being held today. Two women members of parlia- ment, Marie Reese and Marie Roe- pert, just before the election, left the socialist party and joined the Communist Party. ARY DIES Nov. 18.—James W.
