RESOLUTIONS OF PETROGRAD PARTY ORGANISATIONS

RESOLUTIONS OF PETROGRAD PARTY ORGANISATIONS ON QUESTIONS OF INNER-PARTY DEMOCRACY 

January 1924 

SAMOILOVA FACTORY

Having heard and discussed the report on inner-Party democracy, the personnel of the Samoilova First State Confectionery Factory welcomes the decision of the CC and CCC on this question and will, for its part, apply all its energy and ability to put the charted measures into effect. At the same time, having acquainted itself with the divergences on the question of inner-Party democracy, the personnel wholly subscribes to the letter of the Petrograd organisation and calls upon all factories to rally round the Party’s leading organs and work together to raise the cultural level and draw more factory workers into the Party.

3RD AND 4TH ARMOURED CAR DIVISIONS

Having heard the report on Party development, we fully and wholly subscribe to the resolution of the Central Committee of the RCP of December 7 and the appeal of the Petrograd organisation to all members of our Party.

We declare that under the Bolshevik guidance of the Central Committee and our leaders we have, since the Tenth Congress of the RCP(B), achieved considerable success in economic work and in politically strengthening the international and domestic position of the workers’ and peasants’ power.

Without relaxing its efforts to promote our country’s economy, our Party is now in a position to begin the vigorous implementation of the resolution of the Central Committee of the RCP and the Central Control Commission.

In this work the Party as a whole and its organisations in the localities must firmly bear in mind that the success of our further work will depend on the preservation of complete unity in the ranks of the RCP(B).

Factions and groups, including the present faction of the official opposition, must be disbanded immediately.

We consider that in this respect the coming all-Union conference of the RCP(B) must give the existing factions a worthy Bolshevik rebuff and firmly call to order all comrades who are pursuing an anti-Bolshevik policy in the Party.

It is time we went over from discussion to work!

Long live the Central Committee of the RCP(B) and the Party leader Comrade Lenin!
