Transcript	68 At the Halle Congress Crispien "cleverly" described the German Communist Labour Party as the bastard child of the union between the German Spartacists and the Russian Communists. All the petty bourgeois elements present at the Halle Congress were highly tickled at this "apt" phrase. This, however, will in no way affect us Russian Communists. We shall earnestly and persistently strive to bring the better part of the workers who are members of the K.A.P.D. within the folds of the German Communist. Party, which is now being organised and unified. Members of the German Communist Labour Party were, owing to our efforts, invited to the forthcoming general congress.

In Germany the bulk of the population lives in towns, where the workers can better organise themselves. In Berlin, Hambourg, Leipzig, and especially in the coal districts, the workers form a majority. They have sheer physical preponderances on their side, and everything depends on them.

There is no German worker who is not a member of a trade union. What is lacking is a clear revolutionary standpoint on the part
