I went to the prefecture of the police. The | commissioner was pleasantly sur- prised. So you want to go abroad? I hould think that would be quite a good thing, really, to stay there?” “Yes, of course!” I replied. He beamed at me. “One less of these,” he evidently ought. Will it take a long time to get Do you intend a passport?” “No, no! come in about three jays’ time In_ three days’ time I called round and strange to say—was anded a foreign passport! It was obvious that the commissioner was in a hurry to get me off. He was extremely polite, and wished me a pleasant journey. “And your colleagues won't try to play any tricks with me at the frontier?” I asked. “Oh, how could you think of such a thing!” MY “CRIME” IS DISCOVERED For the few days that remained until my departure for Russia T lived in a state of feverish anxiety. T was still afraid that something might happen to prevent me. One morning a policeman attached to the Labor Bureau came to me and said: “The commissioner wants speak to you immediately.” My heart seemed to stop beating. “That's my trip knocked on the head!” to It appeared to be as follows Among the “cri committed by me as @ journalist, was that of lese-majeste (ins This was what I was called up for now. Té had happened at the end of August, 1922. The “Stefani,” the government telegraph agency, had announced in the most florid lan- guage a few days previously that— “Our well- beloved monarch was the fire which in the hut of @ poor mountaineer. about his own personal safety, His Majesty actually tried to help the unfortunate victims.” The entire Italian press had sen- timentalized about this as if it was a tremendously important event. I made some inquiries and wrote a short paragraph for our paper. I remarked that the king had not poured even one bucket of water onthe fire, and that even if he had, he was well rewarded for any- thing like over-time work, since his pays was 60,000,000 lire per annum. The “firemen, who really risk their lives; receive much less than the king, and when they are killed at work; as often happens, “Stefani” dees not think it worth-while even to mention their names. The article was signed “Copper-beard.” ‘HE KING WAS “OFFENDED” Is appeared now that the king had been offended by this, The commissioner advised me to admit that I was the author. I denied it. “We know perfectly well that you are “Copper-beard,” the commis- sioner said. “You don’t know anything of the kind!” I protested, frightened for therfirst time: after all, Russia and the Congress and Lenin were at stake!” “You haven't the courage to ad- mit it!” the commissioner taunted me: “Oh, I know that trick. ‘Don't lose your self-respect and things like that. You won't catch me with that, signor commissioner.” I had already got myself well in hand, “You'd better tell me, if you have read the incriminating article, | the clubs, th I MEET LEN Instead of worrying | h proce factories, We were bewildered, s It was a hol cessions before the Grand-stand in the Red Square. The human wave flowed past for hours before its Endless pro- leaders, and greeted the foreign guests. Who of us in the thin overcoats made for the mild cli- mate of Rome, Genoa or Naples, felt the cold! Our hearts beat fast, our cheeks burned, our eyes shone! Then the solemn opening of the congress of Kremlin, to the sounds of the “In- ternational,” sung in 50 different tongues. We waited impatiently for the day when Lenin was to speak; to see him, to shake his hand, and te of the feelings that burned in And I met him of those countless co Kremlin.

A crowd of delegates surrounded us. Later on I went with the other Italian delegates to see Lenin. One of us, a Neapolitan worker, was supposed to make a speech of greet- ing from the workers of his fac- tory. When he saw Lenin, he got so excited that he could not speak a word. He just gripped Lenin’s hand and cried. Lenin was ex- tremely embarrassed. When Lenin mounted the plat- form, the hall shook with applause All the delegates rose and ap- plauded. Then we sang the “In- ternational.” I remember his eyes. He had a peculiarly attentive, sharp glance. I saw him once more in the Kremlin, after a meeting. He spoke in German, slowly, plainly And I did not know German and waited impatiently for the inter- preter to translate for us. ‘HE IV Congress of the Cominte has a particular importance for our Communist Par Tt brought to light Bordiga’s dif ferences of opinion witH the majority of the Italian delegates.“ The Italian question was discussed very fully at the commission. I remember the long night meetings, the strug- gle, the doubts and at last—the voting, when Bordiga, who repre- sented the ultra left tendency in our Party, proved to be in the min- ority. This took place in the throne room of the Kremlin. That eve- ning I was chairman. It was no easy thing to keep order at such an important meeting, especially with Italians present. It was then that our Party, only just freed from the ultra-left elements, was begin- ning the complicated and difficult work of new guidance, of the thong ough inculeation of Ceminter principles into the Party. Nearly seven years have passed since then. Now our Party, born out of the struggle, has grown and is tempered in the battle with fas- cism. It has lost many fighters from its ranks, but new ones have taken their places, and the Party has remained faithful at its post. It is the only party in Italy that has withstood the storm and con- tinues the struggle with the fas- cists. It owes much of its strength and endurance to the guidance of the Comintern. Lenin took an active part in the discussion of the Italian problem. aes From “The Autobiography of the Comintern in the | Joseph Stalin, General Secretary of the Communist Party of the | soviet Union, under whose leader. | ship the first Five-Year Plan has been successfully completed. |DOAK- VICTIM WRITES) FROM ELLIS ISLAND; | WILL LIVE IN USSR | ment in Ellis Island, just before his hi ‘ities, writes a letter in which he} describes his, case, and sends greet-| ings to the workers in this country.

The entire Police force was mobilized against the workers by the Mayor and the Chief of Police. “These thugs in uniform viciously attacked the workers, with the re- sult that two workers were sent to the hospital and six, including two women, were arrested, All were con- victed and given sentences ranging from 90 days for the women to one year for another worker and myself. “After serving the year in the Monroe County Pen, I was not re- leased but held for deportation.

The issues of Scottsboro and Tom Mooney are well known to the workers of England and France. They have repeatedly ex- pressed their solidarity with the Negro and white workers of the United States in huge meetings of protest against these two mon- strous frame-ups. ‘While we were in Paris, word came to us that the Home Office of the English government, under the tremendous pressure of the workers of England, had rescinded its previous decision to refuse Mother Mooney a, visa to visit that country.

TOM MANN SPEAKS Tom Mann, leader of the work~ ers of England, addresszd these meetings also, calling for solidarity with the struggles of the American workers. In each meeting, a few minutes of silence were called for in memory of J. Louis Engdahl, national chairman of the I. L.

Many members promised to do so. The workers of Ireland had in- vited Mother Mooney to come there, to visit her birthplace «and speak to them about the struggles in America. But our visas were only good until Dec. 17, and the doc- tors advised against too hurried a trip to Ireland. Mother Mooney was very tired. To the Irish workers, through their representative at the London meetings, Jim Larkin, Jr., she sent & message: “I am going®back to the United States,” she said, “to carry on the Lenin talking with a worker on the street in Moscow. Photo was taken in 1919, SOVIET AMBASSADOR TO ITALY IS DEAD; WAS OLD BOLSHEVIK lOSCOW. — The former Ambas- sador of the Soviet Union to Italy, Comrade Kursky, has died in Moscow of blood poisoning. Everything possible was done to save his life, but his constitution had already been undermined by diabetes and the efforts of the doctors were unsuccessful. Comrade Kursky spent his whole life in the service of the revolu- tionary proletariat. In 1895 as a 19 year old youth he was arrested by the Czarist police in connection with student activities. After the completion of his studies he con- tinued his underground party work and in 1905 he was in the ranks of the armed insurrectionaries, During the February revolution he was the chairman of the Council of Soldiers Deputies of the Fourth Army. During the October revolu- tion he was a member of the Revolutionary Committee of Odessa. Later on he became People’s Com- missar for Justice and organized the first People’s Courts in Moscow. He devoted considerable study to the questions of law and legal pro- cedure and was Director of the In- stitute for the Codification of Soviet Law and editor and contributor of numerous journals and other scientific publications.

FTER our arrival in Petrograd, I saw little of Ilyich (Lenin). He was working. at the Central Com- mittee and in Pravda, and attend- ing meetings. On April 18 (May 1) Ilyich took part in the May Day demonstration and spoke both on the Okhta and on the field of Mars. I did not hear him as I was so ill that day I could not get up. When Ilyich re- turned I was surprised at his €X- cited appearance, When we lived abroad we generally paraded on May Day, but May Day by police permission is one thing, and the May Day of the revolutionary masses, the masses who had tri- umphed over tsarism, was different. On April 21 I had to meet Ilyich at Danskoys. f had the address, Starc-Nevsky 3, and I walked the whole length of the Nevsky. A large worker's demonstration came from the Nevsky Gate. Workers who were crowding on the sidewalk greeted the demonstration. “Let us go,” called one young working woman to another. “Let us go, we will march all night!” Another crowd wearing hats and bowlers moved towards the workers’ dem- onstration; they were grected by other people with the same head- gear on the sidewalk. The workers predominated nearer the Nevsky Gate, but nearer to Morskaya Street and Poitseysky Bridge the bowlers and hats were more numerous, The story was passing from mouth to mouth of how Lenin had bribed the workers with German gold and now all were following him. “We must beat Lenin!” shouted a stylishly dressed girl. “Kill all these scoun- drels,” someone in a bowler. roared. Class against class! The working class stood for Lenin, THE APRIL CONFERENCE From April 24th to the 29th the All-Russian Conference, known as the April Confererce, which finally united the Bolsheviks, tock place. A hundred and fifty-one delegates attended. A new Central Commit- tee was elected. The questions that were discussed were of extraordi- nary importance, viz., the political situation, the war, preparation for organizing the Third International, the national questicn, the ‘ian question, and the Party program, Peas REMEMBER, particularly Tyich’s speech on the political situation. ‘The most outstanding thing in this speech was the way it clearly revealed Ilyich’s attitude to the masses, how closely he observed how the masses lived and what they thought: “There is no doubs that, as a class, the proletariat and semi-proletariat are not interested in the war. They are influenced by tradition and deception. They still lack political experience. Therefore, our task is that of patiently ex- plaining. Our principles remain in- tact, we do not make the slightess compromise; yet we cannot ap- proach these masses as we ap-~ proach the social-chauvinists. These elements of the population have never been socialists, they have not the slightest conception of social- ism, they are just awakening to political life. But their class con- sciousness is growing and broaden- ing with extraordinary rapidity. One must know bew to approach them with explanations, and this is now the most difficult task, partic- ularly for a party that but yester- day was underground,” “Many of us, myself included,” Said Ilyich in his speech, “have had occasion to address the masses, particularly the soldiers, and it seems to me that even when every- thing is explained to them from the point of view of class interests, there is still one thing in our posi- of misapprehension. there is an ab- solute lack of understanding as to cur stand; that is why we niust be particularly clear in this case.” ae . In approaching the masses, we must give concrete answers to all questions.” “We must be able to carry on the work of explanation,” said Ilyich, “not only among the proletariat, but also among wide sections of the petty bourgeoisie.” HAD NO ILLUSIONS Speaking of control, Viadimir Tl- yish said: “To control, one must have power. -If the broad masses of the petty-bourgeois bloc do not understand this, we must have the patience to explain it to them, but under no circumstances must we tell them an untruth.” Ilyich did not resort to demagogy, and this was felt by the soldiers and peas- ants who spoke to him. But confi- dence cannot be won at once. Even in such a time of excitement, Hyich Tetained his usual sobriety of thought: “So far we are in the minority; the masses do not trust us yet. We can wait: they will side with us when the government re« veals its true nature.” Ilyich had many talks with soldiers and peas- ants, and even at that time saw no little evidence of trust, but he had no illusions: ‘The proletarian party would be guilty of the most grievous error if it shaped its policy on the basis of subjective desires where or= ganization is required. We cannot assert that the majority is with in this case our motto should be: caution, caution, caution. To base our proletarian policy on over-con- fidence means to condemn it to failure.” Ce Toa TN CONCLUDING his speech on the political situation Ilyich said: “The Russian Revolution has cre~ ated the Soviets. No bourgeois country has or can have such state institutions, No Socialist ' revolu- tion can function with any other state power, The Soviets of Work- ers’ and Soldiers’ Deputies must seize power not for the purpose of building an ordinary, bourgeois re- public, nor for the purpose of in- troducing Socialism immediately. The latter could not be accom- plished. What, then is the purpose? ‘They must seize power in order to take the first concrete steps toward introducing Socialism, steps that can and should be taken. In this case fear is the greatest enemy. The masses should be convinced tnat these steps must be taken ime mediately, that otherwise the power of the Soviets of Workers’ and Sol diers’ Deputies would be devoid of meaning, and would offer nothing to the people.” And further, Ilyich spoke of the immediate tasks before the Soviets. “Private ownership of land must be abolished. This is our first task, because the majority of the people are for it. To accomplish this we need the Soviets. This measure cannot be carried out by means of the old government bureaucracy.” And he closed by quoting an exame ple to illustrate what the struggle for power locally means. “I shall conclude by referring to the speech that made the strongest impression on me, I heard a coal-miner dee liver a remarkable speech. Without using a single bookish word, he told how they had made the revolution. Those miners were not concerned with the question as to whether or not they should have a president, They seized the mine, and the im- portant question to them was how to keep the cables intact so that production might not be inter- rupted. Then came the question of bread, of which there was a scarc~ ity. Now this is a real program of the revolution, not derived from. books. This is a real seizure of power locally.” Ns 1 : | Am Italian Barber,” by Giovanni | family in Buffalo under the regine PHILADELPHIA GREETINGS FROM INDIVIDUALS | Educationsl Workers League, N ¥ C 3.00 Unit 11, Section 8, Brooklyn, N ¥ Unit 8, Section 1, N ¥ 2.50 does it sally box respond to ie Germanetto, published in “Inter- | of a Soviet United States of Amer.| Strseberry ManslenLeon Bien Mike Almasz, Canton, 0., List 50 2 wba page escceitier «katy eget ty ‘setion 5 ‘srooklyn, NY.
