Miss JONES "On that question, let me answer you. The constitution of the in. Soviet Union does have a plan for compulsory military training.

It fails 3;, ,}_ to understand the full concept of our Party's united- ._v.__;i_§ front peace policy which is to create a movement based on the working class in unity with all other peace-loving »92.;q_. peoples. It reflects a lack of faith in the working- T7. class women themselves who can and will lead all strata _:.;.. 4,; .w,;. I-as of the women in their struggle for peace. This tendency '._,.-q has 'left'-sectarian implications. For to defeat the ,-_ '.-3:3;.. warmakers, it is necessary to unite all sections of the ?.'f'J.'§women under the leadership of the working women, as .'1.-< it is necessary to unite its broad allies under the j.- :~:..i leadership of the working class. ... . _ . _., .

"What is necessary to achieve this new level of understanding in work among women?

"Proper use of the Women's Page of The Worker, under the leadership of Peggy Dennis, now widely road; the organization of friends and readers of The Herker' to make this page the Vd1iC10 of ex- change of experiences in the peace and general women's movement, can make this page the avenue to increas- ing the circulation of the press among the masses of women, particularly among Negro and working-class women .92"Tho Draft Resolutions's failure to deal adequately with the woman question, overcome new with Comrade Hall's report, consists in the fact that it failed not only to deal adequately with women's role -but with her oppression--the crux of the question. It is true that the widespread and justifiable criti- cism by many of our women comrades ofthe Resolutionls weakness was due to their failure to find a corros- ponding estimate of work among women on all Party levels. They saw therefore the struggle for women's equality solely as an inner Party matter, isolated as too many of them are from thelaroad ferment of women for peace. L 4 Where women, despite obstacles, plunged ahead, and did 3 not fall into the Ibattlo of the sexes bourgeois- feminist moods, there recognition of women's full role and contribution to the fight for peace was swiftest. -e This should point up a great fact: namely, that it is 7. the movement of the women themselves for peace that has forced a new awareness upon our Party and labor-progros if-'5, sive forces everywhere today, A real tribute for this Q. approach goes to Comrade Foster who told us that i women must fight for their own liberation, and to women Communist anti-fascist leaders in the international women's movement. 1 The attention and agreement of the entire Party organization must be won to the solution of, and collective application to these problems. Over- 92 coming of these weaknesses will release the collective t talents of our wonderful women fighters to work, write, sing and fight for women's liberation; and they will want to do it not as second-class citizens, but as contributors to Party policy and mass work in our clubs and groups. __A Q Ijcut nJ_;;,hf!.l 1 '1-92 .

"We Communists adhere to the fundamental belief . p. _-- ;. .. ,92_ that complete and lasting equality of imperialist oppressed -;¢92 -1. nations and peoples can be guaranteed only with the establish- ment of Socialism. The aim of Socialism is not only to .pa§ abolish the present division of mankind into small states, zn¢= not only to bring nations closer to each other, but ulti- mately to merge them. But we have never ignored the historical process necessary to the achievement of that goal. Nor can we 'postpone' the question of national liberation until Socialism is established or speak solely in general nebulous phrases about national liberation. We must have a clear and precisely formulated political program to guide our work in the achievement of that goal. For we know that mankind can achieve the inevitable merging of nations, only by passing through the transition period of complete liberation of all ass the oppressed nations, i.e., their freedom to secede.' -;/r_" LENIH, Selected Works, Vol. V.

The following excerpts are taken from this statement: -_;-raw; "Roughly between i923 and l929,_the Communist -1-»- an Party of the U.S.A. underwent a serious internal struggle '- #4.. against Lovestoneism and Trotskyism.

"Again, in l9h§, the Communist Party of the U.S.A. 1_'U.was confronted with the menace of Browder revisionism and liquidationism.
