ORGANIZED TOILERS CAN HIT
BIG BLOW AT MURDEROUS
CAPITALISM.

(By Walter Lanfersiek, National Sec
rotary S. PD
The United States Is the only great
nation on this planet today where UNI
relenting war is not carrying on it's
deadly work.
No one knows how long America
will remain at peace with the world.
But while that peace endures, Ameri-
can Socialists should unanimously
muster every ounce Of strength to bull
wark their movement against the pow
ers of capitalism.
The Socialist party national com
mittee has set aside the first week in
September, starting September g.
called it Socialist Week" and dedi-
Gated 1t to the building up Of the
party organization and the party press
Socialist week can be made a big
success. Thousands of new members
can be brought into the party. Tens
of thousands of subscriptions can be
secured for party publications. All
that is needed is a little work
Every one of the Socialist partys
5000 local branches should start now
to prepare for Socialist week
Murderous capitalism supplied us
with a slogan for Socialist week. when
it plunged all of Europe into a death
struggle Let that slogan be, "Down
With War" Only when the Socialist
party becomes strong enough to put
an end to it, will war cease. There
fore, the party organization must be
strengthened. its press must be bull
warked and made powerful against
the press of the capitalist foe.
Arrange for anti-war protest meet
ings and protest parades on Sunday,
September 6. If you have held one al
ready, then make plans for another
Join with the trade unions on Labor
Day, September 7, in celebration of
this annual event. Millions of work
ers can be reached on these two days.
Take advantage of every opportunity.
But this should be only the begin
ming of the big task that awaits every
Socialist for the five days remaining.
Divide your city precincts among your
party workers Do the same in the
country districts.
See that every worker is approached
personally with an application blank
for membership in the Socialist party,
and subscription blank for some
party publication Let no one escape.
The task is an easy one. There are
100000 Socialist party dues-paying
members in the United States. They
should put the 100000 Socialist vot-
ers to work. And surely it would not
be a difficult task for this million to
reach the 100000,0O0 men, women and
children in the nation with one entire
week in which to do it.
But plans must be made and per-
fected now. Hard work during Social
ist week will start that Socialist dele
cation well on it's way toward congress
in November. 1t will mean crushing
blow at the gods of war that continu-
ally seek to keep the workers in sub
lection. 1t will mean a big step for
ward in the long struggle to enamel
pate the worlds toiling masses. Do
your part and others will surely do
theirs.

Washington, D. c.. Aug. "a, 1914-
Marriage between white persons and
persons Of negro descent is to be pro-
hibited in the District of Columbia, as
it is already forbidden in most of the
Southern states, if a bill now on the
calendar of the house, strongly sup
ported by the southern negro-baiting
Democrats and boosted by Big Bust
ness, becomes law. Chances favor it's
passage in the house, but the senate
is inclined to shelve it for political rea-
sns, The Democratic senators do not
all come from the South
The economic value of this sort of
legislation to the ruling business caste
in the South is that it tends to break
the spirit of modernism that has come
to the "nigger" along with the public
school and the trade union. Colored
people are becoming conscious of their
human dignity, and their responsible
ity to develop toward the white mans
plane of social value. They are rails
ing their standards of living, and are
demanding better wages, while the
trade union is slowly making it's way
into their confidence. tThese facts
worry the big business interests in
the South of today, which Is Gle South
turned over by the landowner to the
factory owner and railroad manager.
Something must be done to humble
the black laborer, and to prevent his
children from wanting to become any
thing less than laborers. The anti
inter-marriage law is the latest
scheme. Self-respecting negroes do
not want to marry whites, of course.
They would not be allowed to do so if
they did wish it. But the ban of law

BY Norman Rose.
Washington, April 29.-What is it
going to cost Uncle Sam-the people
of the United States to fight Mex
leo?
have just asked this a1-important
question of Congressman James Hay,
chairman of the military affairs COM
mittee of the United States House of
Representatives, and no doubt the
highest authority on this subject. And
his answer is most startling.
''It is uncertain Hays pointed out
to me, "how many volunteers Presi-
dent Wilson will ask for in the event
of war We have standing army, the
full strength of which is 100000. The
cost of it's maintenance, in time of
peace, is one hundred million year.
The military appropriation bill, just
passed, carries that amount. In time
of war the increased destruction of
equipment and other added expense
will swell this figure to at least $780,
100000.
