MOSCOW’S NEW TACTICS

ARM Ml) HJSINGS NOT \VA NTivl) The. War Council ol' the World Revolution in Moscow has changed the commands lor its German auxiliaries and imposed upon 1 horn new marching orders (states the Berlin correspondent oi the ‘Daily Tclegarph’). The latest behests ol the executive, of the Third International fill three pages in ii nwwni issue of ih o central organ of the German Communist thirty. Signilicantiy enough, it is “ radical tendencies ’ which they now denounce. For the present the. Muscovite taskmakers o! Western European Communism want no more attempts at armed revolution. They have realised that the time is not ripe fur that kind of tiling. Jtncouraged hv the success which limy think they have won in. Ragland, they proscribe eoneenrraLiou on the problem of dominating the trade unions and winning the masses over to I heir sine by posing as the champions of the economic demands of the workmen.

Two of the ino.-t prominent Communist agitators and organisers in Germany arc confounded by the now orders from Moscow. One of them is the firebrand Ruth Fisher, whose patent sincerity giii ns respectful hearing in .the Reichstag even for the wildest, extravagancies of her. torrential oratory. _ The other is the "Russian Czonaretzki—known in Berlin as Maslolf—who, by strange irony of fate, was placed on trial before'a State court, at, Leipzig the same morning on a charge of high treason. In substance he is accused of organising civil war in Germany as the agent of the Soviet Government.
