Emblem
American Police in Two Cities Inter.
fere With Display of Banner
of Socialism.

This is the reason. Governments are
the committees of the ruling eco
nomic class. These ruling capital.
lists know that socialism is the over
throw of their methods of the ex-
ploitation of the workers. Hence
they hate the banner that stands for
their ruin, and under the guise OF
lighting the red flag they are really
fighting and attempting to stop the
spread of socialism. Every socialis,
can carry the flag of his country
with the socialist banner if he
chooses. Even when socialism has
taken the place of the benighted
forms of government that exist to-
day, we can imagine no prettier ma
tional emblem than the American
flag. Whether, when European
monarchies have become socialis,
republics, the people, who will then
be the rulers, will wish to still main
tain the emblem that stood for op-
preston, brutality and vileness OF
every description. we are unable to
say. The American flag was made
to stand for freedom, democracy,
and opportunity. 1t has been de-
graded and trailed in the dust, per-
verted from its high purposes by the
blacklegs of traitors to all these
principles who have raped it for the
lust of gold and power. But when
il shall have been rescued from the
hands of its despoilers, and cleansed
in the fountains of pure democracy
we know of no lovelier emblem to
float over the homes of a free and
happy people than the stars and
stripes entwined with the red flag of
of international brotherhood.

is CAPI.
TALISM?

Capitalism is the system of pro-
duction of wealth that prevails at
present.
1t is called capitalism because the
management and development of all
industries are in the hands of the
capitalists.
The capitalist is the one that owns
and controls the capital.
Capital is the wealth used in the
production of other wealth as the
machinery.
Capital does not consist of stocks,
bonds, securities, gold, silver, green
backs. These are simply tokens
that represent the possession or con-
troll over capital.
Capitalism consists of the control
of the capital of the country in the
hands of private capitalists.
This control of the machinery of
production gives the capitalist con-
troll of those who work at the mach
inc, and control of the product.
The capitalist pays the men the
least for which he can get them, and
the less he pays them the more of
their product he has for himself.
This is capitalism.
The more machinery there is and
the more expensive it is, the less
need there is to hire men. The
machine does the work, the men are
out of job and starve.
This is capitalism.
The enormous products of the
machine instead of being available
for use by the workers, go to sup
port the follies, the vices, the dogs
and the prostitutes of the capital
lists.
This is capitalism.
The socialists want the capital to
be owned by the workers that made
it, collectively, that is under a gov
eminent controlled by the workers.
This would destroy the capitalists
and consequently destroy capital
ism.
The workers would then all work
at the machines and would own the
product.
As machinery became more pro-
ductive hours of labor would short
en-, and society would become more
cultured.
This is socialism.

WELCOME MAXIM
GORKY
(By Eugene V. Debs.

With open arms and hearts at
tuned to love and greeting, we OF
the proletariat welcome Maxim
Gorky and his wife to these shores.
We know them and we love and
honor them.
They come to us as international
revolutionists, comrades in the COM
mon cause; and in bidding them
welcome, these brave spirits and un-
conquerable souls have suffered all
the tortures and terrors of Russian
despotism, il is with mingled pride
and JOY that is marred only by the
fact that the indignities to which
they will be subjected by the bour-
geois ruling class in free" America
will be more shocking and brutal, il
possible, than those they have just
escaped in their own native car
cursed, wretched land.
Maxim Gorky's career is as pain
full and pathetic with privation and
suffering as it is luminous with bril-
liant and extraordinary achieve
ment. Child of the social abyss,
he has climbed to the very heights
of fame and his genius triumphant
commands the homage of a world.
But through all the wondrous
changes of his life, his heart has re-
mained in the social depths and con-
tinues to beat warm and true to
Les Miserables" of all the earth.
Had Gorky been an intellectual
prostitute he would be the social
lion of the hour. especially here in
the United States, and every door
of the upper" class would swing
inward at his touch. But through
all the fiery ordeals that have fallen
to his lot he has preserved inviolate
his mental and moral integrity; he
has fought bravely and unainching.

From all over the world comes
the report of the increasing sense of
the solidarity of the international
proletariat as signihed in the May
Day demonstrations. The first of
May has been adopted by the work
ing class of the world as a day sac
red to the interests of labor. 1t is
day when every working man and
woman should set themselves to
thinking about the misery and inse-
curity of the condition of the work
ers, and do everything in their pow
er to oppose such condition, and to
teach others of its Injustice and
needlessness; to raise the spirit of
protest among the working class
everywhere, and to establish more
firmly the organizations for the f.
nal overthrow of capitalism. And
the answer has been flung back from
the toilers in Russia, France, Bel
gium, America, everywhere. in a
determined shout of resistance this
May Day.
Our hypocritical capitalist news
papers try to make the public think
the workers are free here in America
to think and act as they please in re-
gard to their opinions. Such is not
the case, whenever this freedom
conflicts with the interests of the ex-
ploiters of labor, who are the ruling
class. Marching thousands of So
cialist men and women in the streets
of New York and Chicago, carrying
the red flag. the emblem of interna.
tional socialism, were stopped bv
police and the flag seized. Now
just why should any government or
der that the citizens should not carry
any banner they wishl And es-
pecially why should the American
government forbid the socialists to
carry the red fagf The reason is
easily found. The red flag is the
banner of the International social.
ist movement. Ii is a dear, familiar
emblem in every country in the
world where the workers have con.
ceived the grandeur of the noble
ideals of socialism. To say that
the socialists honor it as taking the
place of the national flag of any
country is ignorant nonsense. II is
the emblem of a great movement,
the same as a temperance emblem,
or the banner of a labor organiza-
ton. Ii has no conflict with the
flag of any government in any coun
try.
Now why are the socialists mo-
Tested for carrying their banner ?

rous countess. In that event our
pork chop bourgeoisie would break
their lily-white necks climbing over
each other to grovel at their feet

No wonder their refined sensibili-

full possession of all the virtues. no

breath of moral atmosphere.

Russias, has legal" wife, but act

account, and we're he to land in

the personal representatives of Pres

ception and the elite of the nation
would fall on their faces to serve as

his triumphant march through the
Land of Freedom.

Coup Does Not Mean Return to the

General Won Schwanebach, control
Ter of the empire and one Of the men,
bers of the ministry who remains in
office, gave the Associated Press the
governments explanation Of the mo-
tive necessitating the dissolution of
parliament. In most emphatic fash
ion he declared to the correspondent
that dissolution did not mean a return
to the old regime, and that the emperor
had not abandoned his purpose to in
troduce representative government in
Russia.
''You can tell the American people"
said General Won Schwanebach, that
this step was forced upon the govern
ment, as the only way of eXtricating
the country from the horrible reign Of
blood and terrorism which prevails.
The dissolution of the present parla-
ment does not mean to return to ire
sponsible absolutism. The past Is dead
forever. From his majesty's own lips
can assure you that he still be-
lieves in the principle Of popular repre-
sentation, and firmly intends to adhere
