Stalin School of Falsification -- Chapter 15 Article 7 is adopted. Article 8. OKHLONIN and MANDELSTAM: Move that we fight for increasing the number of representatives from the provinces -- even if only up to 15. For example, to include the representatives of the oblast organizations. TEODOROVICH: Moves to elect a Committee entrusted with carrying on negotiations in the name of the faction with the Presidium of the Conference as to the number and composi tion of the representatives from the provinces. Teodoronich's motion adopted. Article 8 adopted. Article 9 adopted with the following amendment: "Immediately and in agreement with the Petrograd Soviet of Workers' Deputies." SMIRNOV: Introduces a supplementary amendment: "That a central organ of the Soviets be issued by the Bureau." We are electing a Bureau to serve for a whole month, but we have no organ. "The Petrograd Izvestia of Soviet of Workers' Deputies" is not authoritative. TSVILLING: The composition of the Conference is an accidental one and we might get an accidental editorial board; therefore it is possible that undesirable views might be advanced. The amendment was rejected. The draft as a whole is accepted. A committee is elected to negotiate with the Presidium: Stalin, Skrypnik, Teodorovich. A question is raised concerning the candidates to the Organization Committee for convoking the All-Russian Congress of Soviets of Workers' and Soldiers' Deputies. Candidates to be elected from each oblast, and two representatives from each party. LUGANOVSKY: Moves that we fight for tabling the election to the next day, when the organizational centers will be selected, and not to have elections now. SAVELIEV: Moves that the representatives of the oblasta be left to designate their own candidates. STASSOVA: The Bureau of the Central Committee proposes to designate two comrades representing the oblasts and one candidate comrade Teodorovich. ELIAVA: I can understand a proposal to elect two representatives from the provinces. But I do not understand how we can elect representatives from the oblast. TEODOROVICH: The organizational section has worked out a draft of a resolution to be presented to http://www.marxists.org/archive/trotsky/works/1937-st2/sf15.htm (9 of 17) [06/06/2002 15:07:33]
Stalin School of Falsification -- Chapter 15 the Conference of the Soviet Deputies. The articles have been discussed and adopted as a whole. We are interested in the last article: The organizational section proposes to elect from the Conference a body of ten to enter into the Executive Committee and to participate in the calling of the Congress, to direct its convening, and to strengthen its influence. The question is how many and whom to elect. We are entitled to two places out of ten (the Bolshevik faction represents one-fourth of the Congress). We must designate these two. We have already decided that the Committee of 3 that has been elected will insist on elections not taking place on an oblast basis. But even should elections take place according to oblasta, the candidates will in every case be from some oblast. Right now the immediate task is to designate two candidates. The same committee will try to increase the number of representatives from 10 to 15; we will then have 4 seats. The following are elected: Teodorovich, Serebriakov. SESSION OF APRIL 4 On the order of the day: The Question of Unification and Report of comrade Lenin. Chairman: Comrade Zinoviev. Secretaries: 1.1. Boki and F. I. Drabkina. LENIN: My report and the question of unification may be combined. I apologize for coming late. AVILOV: The general meeting of the social democrats is scheduled for one o'clock. It is therefore necessary to set the minimum time for the session of the Bolshevik faction. (Shot&ts: "Up to three o'clock.") DELEGATE: The delegates from the provinces have especially remained to be present at this session which will either unite or disunite. ZINOVIEV: Moves to get in touch with the organizers of the joint meeting. VOITINSEY: Moves to refer the report to the joint meeting. Comrade Teodorovich is designated to get in touch with the organizers of the joint meeting. Report by comrade Lenin. I have outlined several theses which I will supply with some brief comments. I was unable, because of the lack of time, to prepare a thorough and systematized report. The fundamental question is our attitude to the war. The essential thing that confronts one when reading the papers in Russia and observing conditions here, is the triumph of defensism, the victory of the traitors to socialism, the deception of the masses by the bourgeoisie. One is hit between the eyes by the fact that here in Russia the same situation exists in the socialist movement as in other countries: defensism, "the defense of the Fatherland." The difference is this, that nowhere is there the degree of freedom we have, and upon us, therefore, falls the responsibility before the whole inter national proletariat. The new Government, like the preceding one, is imperialist, despite the promise of a republic. It is imperialist through and through. http://www.marxists.org/archive/trotsky/works/1937-st2/sf15.htm (10 of 17) [06/06/2002 15:07:33]
