“The program of the communist
party (bolsheviks) is the program not
only of the liberation of the proletar-
Jat of one country. It is the program
of the liberatign of the proletariat of
all countries; it is the program of
international revolution. The over-
throw of imperialist governments by
means of armed revolt is the road to
the international dictatorship of the
working class.”

poverty and the disorganization of the
world, directly caused by the war,

results of a four year struggle with
autocracy, not to the war but the
system of so-called “Bourgeois Govern-

Lenine Without Toleration.
Yenine decries anyone and every
one who does not accept his gospel of
world revolution. He Is particularly
bitter towards socialists who are op-
posed to his program. Writing of
“the military program of the proletar-
fat revolution” he concludes his ar-
ticle In the November "Class Struggle”
for 1010: “Whoever, in view of this
last war, is not willing to carry out
this demand, let him be good enough
to refrain from uttering large words
about the international revolutionary
democracy, about the social revolution
and about the war against wars”
Of those who have dared to de
nounce militarism and demand disarm-
ament Lenine has written:
“What will the proletariat women do
to prevent this? Merely defounce all
wars and militarism? Merbly demand
disarmament? Never shall the women
of an oppressed and revolutionary
class resign themselves to so desple-
able a role. On the contrary, they
will say to their sons: ‘You will soon
be grown up, You will have a gun.
Take it and learn how to use it—not
fn order to fight your brothers, as is
the practice in this war of plunder,
but in order to fight the bourgeois of
your “own” country; in order to put
an end to misery and wars, not hy
means of "kind wishes,” hut by over-
throwing’ and disarming the bour-
geoisie'”
The third “International” was ealled
together to organize the movement
against the peace of the world, It
met at Moscow from March 2 to March
8, 1010; it adopted a “manifesto”
which® was signed by Lenine and
Trotzky. the leading spirits of the con.
