Trotzkyites Out One of the next speakers was a young ‘Trotzkyite from Argentine who made a rabid attack on the Soviet Union. It was almost impos- sible to keep order due to the con- stant interruptions by the gallery when the Trotzkyite spake. After the Congress exposed the lies | and role of the Trotzkyites, a motion was almost unanimously passed classifying them as counter-revolu- tionaries. So the two Trotzkyite delegates walked out, amidst more whistles and boos from the gallery. | Down to Real Work | ‘The Congress now proceeded to hear the remainder of the reports of the delegafés and adopted a num- ber of concrete proposals, in regard to organizational work, the building | up of anti-war committees in the fac- tories, labor unions, schools, etc. They also adopted a resolution demanding the freedom of Tom Mooney and the release of the Scottsboro boys, against the terror in several countries and the arrest of several would-be dele- gates to the Congress. ‘The role of the capitalist press was the usual. one either of silence or of slander. The Congress was adjourned Thursday afternoon, following many sincere pledges by the delegates to return to their own homes and fac- tories and to redouble the work in the building up of anti-war commit- tees.
