Stalin School of Falsification -- Chapter 15 the party to the Soviet of Workers' Deputies; or 2) to refer these general discussions to the question of the organization of the struggle against the counter-revolutionary forces and to proceed with the reading of the resolution article by article. The second motion is carried. The Resolution of the Organizational Section. Article 1. MANNELSTAM: This question is closely bound up with the question of the participation of the officers. The officers are undoubtedly opportunist and reactionary. If they are allowed to organize separately, they will organize into a hostile organ ization. If organized jointly with the Soviet of Soldiers' Deputies, their influence will be nullified by the influence of the class conscious elements. TSVILLING: I emphatically disagree with comrade Smir nov. In the nature of things, if there is a separate officers' organization, a Soviet of Officers' Deputies alongside of the Soviet of Soldiers' Deputies, it will engender friction. I do not know why the officers are a reactionary element. These are the self-same service men and not a special caste. The officers, of course, are not the proletariat, but neither are the soldiers. It is stated that among the officers there are oppor tunists. But there are any number of opportunists among other groups as well. If we were to come to Chelyabinsk with such a decision, the representatives of the party would have to leave the Soviets. In most of the cities, in the provinces, the same mood prevails. The formal argument that this is a Soviet of Soldiers' Deputies and that therefore the officers have no place there, is unsound. It is necessary to give the officers the right to delegate their representatives to the Soviets. Motion: One speaker for, one speaker against, on each amendment. Motion carried. SMIRNOV: The more officers there will be, the more oppor tunist will be the Soviets. In our Bolshevik Conference there is not a single officer but many soldiers. The conciliationist moods will predominate. It is necessary to play on the demo cratic feelings of the officers -- they must not be given a special number of seats. TEODOROVICH: We ought not to raise the question of a separate organization of officers. New directives for reconstruction in the provinces ought not to be issued. TSVILLING: Introduces a motion that the officers send in delegates according to a fixed proportion. For -- 2. SMIRNOV: The officers send delegates on an equal basis. For -- 13. Against --12. TEODOROVICH: Moves that the matter be left as is in article 1. For -- 11. http://www.marxists.org/archive/trotsky/works/1937-st2/sf15.htm (7 of 17) [06/06/2002 15:07:33]
Stalin School of Falsification -- Chapter 15 Against --15. Article 1 is put to a vote and is adopted by a majority. KOROVAIKOVA: Moves for the reorganization of the Soviet of Workers' Deputies in such a manner as will not allow the representatives of non-proletarian elements more seats than the workers, in the Soviet of Workers' Deputies. TOLSTOV: In favor of this motion because in Stavropol a resolution was passed against giving socialists seats on the ground that they obstruct the work and that there are many provocateurs among them. Comrade Tolstov moves to instruct the center to work out a definite plan, and to effect reorganization in accordance with this plan. MANDELSTAM: Opposed to closing the doors to the representatives of non-proletarian organizations inasmuch as the Soviets of Workers' and Soldiers' Deputies are the organs of revolutionary democracy. Korovaikova's motion is withdrawn. Article 2 is adopted unanimously. Article 3. ZELIOSON: Proposes an amendment: To create goubernia Soviets of Workers' Deputies. It will then be possible to exert an influence on the goubernia organs. For -- 3; against -- 6. Rejected. Article 8 is adopted. Article 4. TEODOROVICH: Introduces an amendment: Small organizations numbering less than 25,000 members are combined during elections. Amendment adopted. Article 4 adopted. Article 5 is adopted with the following amendment: To call the Congress not later than May 15, and not earlier than May 1. Article 6. VASSILCHENRO: Introduces an amendment: "This Executive Committee is to act in close contact with the central bodies of the socialist parties." TEODOROVICH: Is opposed to the amendment, not because I disagree with it in essence, but because such things are car ried out in practise but not made public. To broadcast such a declaration is to give grist to the mill of all those who are conducting an agitation against the Soviets. The amendment is rejected. Article 6 is adopted. http://www.marxists.org/archive/trotsky/works/1937-st2/sf15.htm (8 of 17) [06/06/2002 15:07:33]
