LONDON, Mareh 49, The olacial
EYE Witness, " who IS reporting the
operations Of the British army in
france for the British press, describing
he advance Of the British against the
herman trenches on the extreme left
4 the Allicss line, which resulted in
ahe capture Of Neuve Chapelle and the
5aking of a number o. German prison.
,rs, says that the British infantry ad.
sance was preceded BY the most furious
md terrible artillery bombafdment of
the war. y ri
The British artillery completely
that Of the Germans, show
ing its marked superiority, the German
-eply being weak and their artillery
firing poor. This is probably due, the
Eye Witness says, to the fact that tho
German guns are wearing out, while
the British guns are new. The super.
orityt Of the British artillery has been
demonstrated in q number OF recent
engagements, . - :.
Eager for the Fight " ..5...' &
The British appeared overjoyed at
the first opportunity that, has been
iyen them to emerge from the trenches
'or' an attack for some time, and dis.
played the utmost dash, clearing the
herman trenches and creating severe
losses on the troops opposed to them.
"a large number Of prisoners were
taken, this Being evidenced by a dis,
patch last night.ifrom Hayre, which
announces the arrival there Of two
thousand Germans taken; who are to

CoMRADE UNTERMANN S
FIRST LETTER

We are pleased to present to our
readers this week Comrade Ernest
Untermann's first letter in a series
intended to show that our uncom'
promising attitude on the question OF
Socialist participation in capitalist
wars is unscientific, or utopian, The
letter has a value of its own apart
from the particular subject under dis
cussion. 1t sets forth in clear Ian
suage the three fundamental factors
of scientific Socialism. Its tone is
dignified, its contained statements
made in a manner so free from acri'
money and dogmatism as to be a
model for controversialists We look
forward to his succeeding let
tiers with pleasurable anticipation.

CONCERNING THINGS THAT
ARE HAPPENING

The conservative members of the
Commission on Industrial Relations
must prepare for thorough roasting
from opponents of standpatsm They
have made report .on industrial un-
rest, and not only admitted the exis-
tence of such a thing, but did not say
that IL was due to envy of the indus
trious and thrifty by lazy, incompetent
spendthrifts, spurred on by profess
sional agitators. Don't they see that
If unrest Is not due to such causes,
that Il must rest on some justifiable
ground? From a plutocratic point OF
views Messrs Ashton, Weinstock and
Ballard might as well have approved
all of Frank =. Walshs report,
The Northwest worker. [volume] (Everett, Wash.) 1915-1917, 1915-09-23
SOURCE OF DIFFICULTIES

Our science has convinced us that
the general drift of capitalism is in
the direction of Socialism, but it has
not yet supplied us with clear fore
cast of the most probable stages of
development which we must traverse
under capitalism, before we can get
to Socialism. All our difficulties arise
from this obscurity. We are contin-
ually confronted with attempts, on the
part of some Socialists, to set up hard
and fast rules of conduct in an en-
deviations from such rules This is
contrary to the scientific method sys-
tematized by Marx and Engles them
selves. They recognized plainly
enough that principles of conduct can
never be absolute. Rules of this kind
can be realized in practice only thru
fluctuations around a long and indie
terminate average.
Your own case illustrates this dras-
llCdlly. ACCOTulHS W yOu, INV hi''o

Iciple from which there cannot and
must not be the slightest deviation.
The historical method, on the con
trary, teaches that Internationalsm is
something In the making, which can
not be realized without national de-
lvelopment, You, on the other hand,
insist on an Internationalism which
shall under all circumstances ignore
any and all national considerations.
This Is an impossibility. 1t will be
a part of my task to demonstrate this
conclusively In the following letters.
For the present permit me to add
that this conflict between theory and
practice is not any particular fault of
your own. 1t runs through all the
Socialist world Marx, Engles and all
the prominent Marxians of Europe
have fallen victims to the same CON
flict. Although they had often fore
seen this difficulty in their theory and
REALIZED it to be an inevitable by
product OF capitalist deVelOpment they
were always overwhelmed by some
Especial problems which pressed upon
them at various historical periods.
For instance, the difficulties arising
from the present world war had long
been anticipated by some MARKHAM So
cialists of Europe. Similar difficulties
had arisen many times before the
present war. Almost the same dis
sensions and descriptions had occurred
time and again. Yet, when this war
broke out, Socialists the world over

THE SUPREME ISSUE

Accepting the MARKHAM, or rather
evolutionary principle, advocated by
Comrade Untermann, of adaptation of
principle and tactics to changing con
ditions, we believe that the time has
come in the development of the class
struggle or in the evolution of the
proletariat as a class, when interna-
tionaIism, or international class solid
arity, must take precedence over ev-
cry other consideration, every other
principle, as the distinguishing fea-
ture, or essential prerequisite, of be-
