{ a) aa REVOLUTIONARY FIGHT NEARS IN BRAZIL; ALL; FORCES AWAIT MOMENT Revolt Rises Against Feudal Exploitation By| American and British Plantation Hells Communist Party Strong; Red Unions Gain a y Big Influence; Reaction Met With Arms By JORGE PAZ. In the state of Para, in Brazil, there exists a real situation of feu- dal exploitation. The continuous revolts in the countryside of that region in the last few months show clearly the terrific poverty existing among the peasantry. They are completely enslaved at the lowest imaginable wage paid to this cate- gory of semi-proletarians and agri- cultural «workers, who create the riches for the feudal landowners of Brazil. : After the revolt of June, 1926, | the workers cemented their forces against the hell that reigns in the present situation. We saw this sl pwn in the rebellion against the F fd rubber plantations where the wytkers are enslaved in the Amazon area, and now we see the rebellion of 2,000 workers in the nut planta-| tions of the American Matwir con- | cern, against the slavery imposed on |them. In this region the workers jare all organized in the Workers and Peasants Bloc, the General |Trade Union Confederation of Bra- zil and the Communist Party of! | Brazil. These bodies organize and | lead the struggles of the workers. | |In the present revolutionary situa-| tion the workers only await the word of these organizations * | strike.

No Credits! by KARL LIEBKNECHT. I state the following reason for my vote on today’s measure: This war, | which was desired by none of the participating nations, did not break out for the good of the German, or of any other people. It is an imper- ialist war, a war for capitalist dom- ination of the world market, for the political control of important colon- ial regions by industrial and finan- cial capital. From the point of view of competitive armaments, it is a preventive war, hatched in the dark of semi-absolutism and a secret di- plomacy by the German and Au- strian war parties acting conjointly. It may also be considered a Bona- partist enterprise for the demoraliza- tion and the destruction of the rising labor movement. The past few months have shown this with in- creasing clearness, in spite of a ruth- | less campaign of misrepresentation.

It wlil be the task of revolutionary So- cial Leraccracy, both in cas2 of a rapid revolutionary development and in case ef a protracted crisis, not to renounce tedious everyday work, not to cast away any of the oid w.ethods of class struggle.

OF LENIN Leading Article m Pravda, Moscow, December 21, 1929 (Continucd from Page One) temporary illegality, Comrade Stalin gave the political report at the VI. Party Congress, and | therein setting up the milestones, so to speak, of the further revolutionary struggle. for the conquest of power, in complete agreement with the line laid down by Comrade Lenin. After the VI. Party Congress Comrade Stalin | one of those who, as members of the Leninist Central Committee, and without deviating a hair’s breadth from the path pointed out by Lenin, led the Party over hindrances and bar- riers, to the victory of October. Everyone knows the leading role played by Comrade Stalin in the immediate preparation and carry- ing out the October revolution. The same determination and_ inflexibility characterized Comrade Stalin in October, when he fought side by side with Lenin against the semi-liquidatory opportunist tendencies already giving up their weapons, and it was with this same steadfastness that he followed Lenin’s example, during the difficult days at Brest, in combating those “left” elements with their inclinations to capitulation, and anxious to force upon the Party the adventurous tactics of a war against German imperialism, which would have inevitably ended with the collapse of the Soviet power. A vas: amount of labor was accomplished by Comrade Stalin after October, in closest collaboration with Lenin, for the organization of the Party in the light of the proletarian dictatorship, for the organization of the state apparatus of the proletarian dictatorship, and for the organization of one of its most import- ant instruments—the Red workers’ and peas- ants’ army. The part played by Comrade Stalin during these and the subsequent years, as the imme- diate leader of the national policy of the Party, must be especially emphasized, for this policy ensured for the Party the warm sympathy and support of the nationalities oppressed by Tzar- ism, won the masses of the national minori- ties for the working class, and isolated these masses from the counter-revolutionary bour- geoisie in the former border regions of Tzarist Russia, from the bourgeoisie which was at- tempting to organize the struggle against the proletarian revolution under the national flag. The correct Leninist national policy of the Party, pursued under the immediate leader- ship of Comrade Stalin, formed one of the most important factors of the victory of the Soviet power in the civil war. During this war Comrade Stalin was one of the leaders of the Red Army. Many of the illustrious pages in the history of the struggle of the Soviet Republic against the White Guard counter-revolution and the foreign intervention bear the name of Stalin (the defense of Zar- « itain in 1918, the decisively victorious stage of the struggle against Denikin on the South front at the end of 1919, the struggle a t white Guardist Poland, in the Ukraine in 1920). As early as two years before Lenin relin- quished the leadership of the Party and the Soviet power, a struggle against Trotzkyism developed in the Party, showing the pressure exercised by the petty bourgeois elements. Stalin, in closest contact with his teacher, fought for the Leninist line. Trotzkyism re- jected by the overwhelming majority of the Party, ceased the struggle against the Party for the time being, after its defeat at the X. Party Congress. At the end of 1923 the Party entered the second post war period of an_ inexorable four years’ struggle against Trotzkyism, a struggle which spread into other sections of the Comintern. All our enemies set their hopes for the overthrow of the Soviet power on the success of Trotzkyism. ‘The Party, under the leadership of Comrade Stalin, defended itself effectively against Trotskyism, unmasked its ideology in the eyes of the Party masses as Menshevist and finally rejected Trotzkyism from its ranks. Comrade Stalin, on the basis of the Leninist teachings, gave the Party the clear slogan of industrialization, and the complete building up of socialism in the Soviet Union. Today not only the majority of the hangers- on of Trotzkyism, but a considerable part of the leading Trotzkyist cadre are compelled to break with their former leaders and acknowl- edge that the Party has been right, for the suc- cesses of socialist reconstruction in the Soviet Union speak for themselves, After the defeat of Trotzkyism, the Party under Comrade Stalin’s leadership dealt an annihilating blow against the Right opportu- nist deviation, which shrank from the difficul- ties of the reconstruction period and propa- gated a programme of complete capitulation to the nepman and kulak. The Party forced the leaders of the right deviation to acknowl- edge their errors publicly, and to turn their back on them. In a relentless struggle against the violent resistance of the right and left representa- tives of capitulation, the Party continued after Lenin’s death, under Stalin’s leadership, with the realization of the Leninist general line. Not only has it proved capable of regaining the pre-war level of industry, but has far. ex- ceeded it. Immediately after the 15th Party Congress, the Party on the initiative of Comrade Stalin, and in spite of the desperate resist- ance of the capitalist elements, took up the comprehensive socialist reconstruction of agri- culture, the comprehensive collectivization, or- ganization of vast Soviet farms. Today we the brilliant suecess of socialist re- tion in the village, where till recently mall seattered peasant farms predomi- upon which anti-so- elements matured. in Comrade Stalin the most faithful and devoted pupil and co-worker of its great leader and organizer Lenin, the most distinguished theoretician of Leninism, not only in the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, but in the whole Comintern. Stalin’s “Principles of Leninism” is today the textbook of every Leninist in the whole world today. Since the events in Germany in 1923, and especially since the V. Congress of the Commu- nist International, Comrade Stalin has been participating directly and systematically in the work of the Communist International. It was under Stalin’s leadership that victorious strug- gles against Trotzkyism were carried on in the most important sections of the Comintern after the V. Congress. It was with the guiding cooperation of Comrade Stalin that the most important documents of the VI. Congress were drawn up, the main course directed to the conciliatory tendency in the whole Comintern. The Party sees in Comrade Stalin a leader at once a politician and an organizer, necessary qualities in the leader of the working class striving for victory against many powerful enemies all over the world, and condemned to impotence without organization. This double capacity has become conspicuously apparent during the last few years, since Comrade Stalin has acted as General Secretary of the Central Committee after the XI. Party Congress. In the creation of the mighty apparatus of the proletarian dictatorship in the Soviet Union, under the leadership of the Party, a process involving the establishment of contact with the millions of the working masses and poor and middle peasantry by means of skillful con- trivance (Soviets, trade unions), Comrade Stalin has played an important role, since the death of Lenin—a leading one. And finally, not only our Party, but the whole Communist international, sees in Com- rade Stalin the irreconcilable fighter for the unity of the Party, for the determined pursu- ance of the Bolsehvist line against all oppor- tunism and conciliation, against each and every deviation from Leninism, ‘The Party is convinced that, under the lea- dership of the Central Committee and its Gen- eral Secretary, Comrade Stalin, it will win in the coming period, the final and complete victory over the capitalist elements in the country of the proletarian dictatorship, and will thereby give a mighty impetus to the vie- tory ¥ the revolution on an international scale. |and donated $6.50 he had made by uggle against the Right deviation and the | (Continued from Page One) in many strike struggles in |the waist down, and with a bullet) in New York. jperforating his spine and tearing} Together with the announcement six holes in his intestines.
