Transcript	History is full of the unforseen. Nothing assures us that the Russian revolution will end in the society whose premises we have just described. Great changes are possible. But the Russian revolution has shown us the possibility of such a society. It has produced the embryo of a society that we must oppose. In 1917, the Russian people made their revolution. The historian has now to write how the Russian revolution has been stolen from the Russian people. But the struggle continues. The formation of the new classes gives rise to new class combats. No more than anywhere else in the world do we find in Russia a community of interests between those on the top and those on the bottom. There is a fundamental contradiction between the State apparatus, desiring to have it plans executed at an increasingly faster rate, wanting to give less to the workers, and the wage workers, who want the opposite. It is natural for this contradiction to grow sharper with the evolution of the regime. It is not surprising that thousands of revolutionists (anarchists, socialists, communists, trade-unionists and simple workers who have refused to give up their right to think for themselves) go to prison for daring to say aloud what so many say to themselves. Voices are being raised in spite of the cruel repression. These voices, still expressing their faith in the possibility of a better world, provide us with the assurance that those down below do not yield. Thousands of workers who have been reduced to bread and water burst now and then into spontaneous movements of revolt. Strikes have not disappeared. Individual terror is much more common in Russia than is known abroad. These attempts become known only when they hit such highly placed personages as Kirov. The unequalled precautions that are taken by the directors of the Soviet exploiting machine to safeguard their lives go to prove that these worthies are in constant fear of a population that appears to be thoroughly exhausted and terrorized. The class struggle continues.
