That's the way to argue prepared
 ness that is not answeraDie. >iiyen capitalism and, you will eventually have war. Out of this there is no
 escape. It is as certain as that :he
 day follows night. It is positively
 the pith of the entire preparedness
 movement, but because it involves
 the capitalist system in doubt and none of the prepara-
 tionists dare to utter it.
 The most hopeless of all things i'll
 the present turbulent process of hi-
 story is the fact that American lead ers openly foel satisfied that after
 the wcr in Europe Is concluded it
 will lead to war againct the United States. Why such an otherwise un- |intclligible position should be taken |up with the powers subject.ng them. selves in their fretricidal struggle to national exhaustion is only to be explained by the instinctive feeling among the privileged classes that they will incur the resentment o+ other powers by their methods. Again quoting from Washington,
 what a change has come over the situation, since his day Observe good faith and justice towards all nations. Cultivate peace and har-
 mony with all. Religion and moral ity enjoin this conduct; and can 1t
 be that good policy does not equal ly enjoin it? It will be worthy of a free and enlightened and at no
 distant date great nation, to give
 mankind the magnanimous and too novel example of people always
 guided by an exalted justice and bencvolence =. In the execu- tion of such a plan nothing Is
 more essential than that permanent
 inveterate antiquities against partr- cular nations and passionate at-
 tachment for others should be- ex-
 cluded and that in place of them
 just and amicable feelings towards
 all should be cultivated. So, but
 that was written century or moro ago. In these days of foreign half
 billion loans and prosperity based upon munitions, the Colonel would
 doubtless be justified in terming those ideas somewhat mollycodd-
 leian.
The daily Nome industrial worker., 1916-02-22

1 whore they are not, they are ga they are because of the tendency to resist which American employees have repeatedly manifested and which they do manifest. Where the great organizations manifest a tendency to improve the conditions of the workers they do so in this country for the purpose of prevent I ing the workers themselves getting desperate. It is not because it Is inately characteristic of American employers. Quite the contrary. Am erican employers in othor countries have shown a fine tendency to better the instruction of local magnates when they had reduced the workers to condition of peonage.
 Whatsoever betterment in condi- tions exist in the United States exist because there prevails and has pre- vailed system for which Lincoln thanked God that it did exist, which entitled men to strike whenever | they felt like it. It is wholly an it. lusory idea that the American mag nate has any higher ideals than his ! European brethren, because he s moro hypocritical and is not above quoting the Declaration of InIe- pendence to the starving man in the breadline unconscious of its insult ing mockery to such an individual. And because this is so, because the American capitalism is own brother to the capitalism of Europe, with all the family traits accentuated in his person we can infailibly argue that he is likely to be involved in the same kind of squabbles With other capitalist nations eventually.
 This being SO. and the capitalists know it and feel it in their bones, the certainty that in the course Of time the United States will be called upon to effect the ends of capital istic destiny and imperial istic fate by means of arms, men and ships, is the real solid founda- tion whoreon this argument fer preparedness rests.
 If capitalism is to remain tho eco homie system in the United States 1t is only a matter of time until tine United States is involved in war That's fiat, and not all the anti-pre- par edness arguments of anyone, whether pacificist, Fordite or social- ist will change that fact. It is true as truth itself and in the face or such a condition the nation has only two alternatives: To charge the system or to arm from nead to foot, Ito pile on arms upon arms, to stack armories with millions of rifles and houses full of high explosives, to construct forts along the entire frontier and coast, to force conscrip- tion upon the people, to compel the entire activities of the country 10 re subordinate to national prepared ness and to out-Germanize the Ger
 mans in the militaristic madness that capitalism forces as a matteir of national necessity.
