THE ZINOVIEV TRIAL

By D. N. Pritt K.C., M.P. The trial of Zinoviev, Kamenev, Yefdokimov, Bakaief, and twelve other persons accused of participation in terrorist conspiracies against the Government of the Soviet Union, which was held in Moscow in the latter part of August 1936, resulting in all the accused being sentenced to death and executed, has given rise to a good deal of criticism in Great Britain.

Historic election result in the USA

The clear election of Barack Obama to the presidency of the USA is a great victory over racism and discrimination. A new page has opened in the decades-long struggle, with its cortege of assassinated leaders, imprisoned activists, violently repressed demonstrations and where racial discrimination goes together with social discrimination. We share the immense joy of the blacks, Latinos and many minorities that make up this country, of the progressive men and women, the factory workers, the office workers, of all sectors of the working class who mobilized to beat the candidate of the party for...
