Peters was born in the [[Austro-Hungarian]] Empire and was a petty officer in the Austrian Army in World War I. After the [[Béla Kun]] revolution in Hungary, he joined the Communist Party and was a member of the short-lived ''Bela Kun'' [[Hungarian Soviet Republic]] government that seized power in Hungary in 1919. Peters emigrated to the United States in 1924 and became an organizer for the [[CPUSA]], later serving as a CPUSA official in its Hungarian ethnic section. He was a delegate to the Sixth Congress of the [[Comintern]] in Moscow in the late 1920's and was appointed head of the party's National Minorities Department in 1929.
