Soviet slogan

[Elena_Baraban at UMANITOBA.CA]

 It's indeed a phrase by Lenin (at least that's to whom it was attributed on 
numerous posters). I am not certain about the source.

here's a link to a Soviet poster:
 http://www.davno.ru/posters/1973/poster-1973g.html

Because the phrase was quoted many times, the wording could be either 

the one you have or sometimes "Kommunisticheskaia Partiia-- eto chest',  um
 i sovest' nashei epokhi"
