Transcript	individually, whether application has been made individually or collectively. This is how the Party acted during the memorable Lenin levy in 1924, and it acts on this precedent to-day. While emphasising the political importance of the fact of collective applications by the workers, the Party tests the desirability of admission in each individual case. The Party is bound to take cognisance of the fact that even elements hostile to the proletarian revolution, from Mensheviks to Black Hundreds inclusive, find their way into the ranks of the working class. We consider it essential that the Party should have its ranks swelled by the really advanced workers, capable of moving at the head of the working class both in production (through socialist competition and the shock brigades) and in struggle against every sign of hostile class influence (petty bourgeois waverings in periods of difficulty, jingoism, etc.). Summarising all that has been said, my report was intended to show, although in the most general way, what is going on in our country and by what means socialism is being built in the U.S.S.R. The facts which show the growth of socialism and the unprecedented enthusiasm of the masses are ample evidence to prove that the U.S.S.R. is striding forward along the road to communism. Marx wrote : "The weapon of criticism cannot, of course, replace criticism by weapons. Material force must be overthrown by force equally material; but even theory becomes a material force directly it takes hold of the masses." These last words of Marx are particularly appropriate to what is now going on in the U.S.S.R. From the time that not only in the working class but also amongst the millions of peasantry, there began to take place the definite turn of the tide towards socialism, the ideas of communism "become a material force." These ideas, penetrating deeper and deeper into the masses, become transformed into the real facts of socialist construction, the volume of which is becoming truly gigantic. III.—The Tasks of the Party. Let us pass now to the third part of my report, on the tasks of the Party. Needless to say, all our main problems follow from the economic development of the Soviet Union, which constitutes the basis of the building of socialism. In particular, these tasks are closely connected with the carrying out of the industrial and financial plan, the backbone of all our constructive work. I shall deal only with the most important. 33
