MUNITION MAKERS TO
WAGE WAR ON FORD

Two automobile wizards - Henry
Ford and Walter c. Durant-are about
to declare war
The two men hold exactly opposite
views on international affairs. Ford
opposes war, and all plans for war;
while the du Pont powder interests
are said to be behind Durant in a
wide-reaching plan to monopolize the
trade in munition supplies.
1t is urged that du Pont, the pow
der man, and other makers of NUM-
lions, are making Durant the prey of
the arms makers and that they seek
to belittle and undermine Ford in ev.
cry way they can and claim it plan
to wrest from Ford the control of the
cheap trade.
The wizards of Wall street are u.s.
ing Walter Durant to break down the
plans and preparations of Henry Ford
against war preparedness, Ford's
friends now claim.

Congressman Meyer London
Opposes Preparedness

The news has been spread broad
cast by the capitalist press that Mey
er London, the Socialist congressman
is for preparedness. Many Socialists
believe it to be the truth, but after
reading the following from a recent
speech by Meyer London, they will
probably take the news that comes
via the capitalist press with a grain
Of sale. If you want the REAL news.
get it from The Northwest Worker.
In referring to the Socialist party,
Meyer London said:
There is only one living force in
American politics, and that is the So
cialist movement.
The Democrats are incompetent for
good.
The Republicans are competent for
mischief.
The Progressives are dead, and be-
long to the graveyard.
The Socialist party represents the
TO-DAY of the largest group of So
ciety-the working class-and the
TOMORROW of humanity at large.
The phrase working class" embraces
the worker, farmer, the professional
man-all whose source of existence
is service.
The Socialist party has made the
solution of the pruD1er1 " poverty its
great mission, and it has necessarily
gathered around itself and will con-
tinue to- gather all to whom other
questions and other problems appear
of minor Importance.
There is no essential difference be-
tween the old political parties. The
leaders of the Democratic party were
clever enough to steal from the Re-
publicans the slogans of "American-
ism" and Preparedness, and by the
Anti-Dumping bill, which is merely a
stupid form of protective tariff, the
Democrats revert to protection"
There will be no issue of principle
in the 1916 campaign between the two
old parties. 1t will be purely a ques-
ton of the personality of the candi-
dates.
While asking people to vote the
Socialist ticket, realize that we can
not in 1916 elect Socialist president.
The Northwest worker. [volume] (Everett, Wash.) 1915-1917, 1916-01-27

We can, however, elect a sufficiently
large number of members to congress
to constitute the BALANCE OF
POWER IN CONGRESS. We can be
the motor power of American political
life.
we shall urge the need of an i'm
mediate remedy for our Industrial
evils, the immediate enactment of I'M
employment insurance, sickness in
surance, and Of old age pensions, the
elimination of child labor, the en-
franchisement of women, and the ma
t1onalization of monopolized indus
tries, and the naturalization of mines
and railroads, the telephone and the
telegraph.
We shall oppose the preparedness
campaign, which is a mere reflection
of the insantes of Europe, and which
is calculated to divert the peoples
minds to non-exstent external enc.
mics so that we may not prepare for
the fight at home with the internal
enemy, the industrial oligarchy of the
land.
WE SHALL ANSWER THE PAN
ICKY CRY FOR PREPAREDNESS
WITH AN AGGRESSIVE CAM
PAIGN FOR INTERNATIONAL
PEACE.
We shall ask for scientific method
of taxation-a tax on incomes. an in
heritance tax, and a tax on land held
for speculative purposes.
The Democratic party promises the
impossible; it holds out the false hope
of satisfying every group and every
class of humanity. Assuming to speak
in the name of the people, it fears to
antagonize the rich.
The Republicans have nothing new
to suggest. Like the Democrats, thew
would maintain things essentially as
they are.
There WAS a Progressive party.
Its remnants are seeking shelter UNI
der the wings of the Republican or.
ganization.
We, the Socialists, shall rally
around our banner all who are scan
ming the horizon for the Lincolns of
1915, who will emancipate the race
from the curse of wage-sIavery.

trenches for dear old England" With
a forcefulness that brought great ap-
plause from the fashionably dressed
women in the audience, he demanded
his fellow workers to get out and give
the Germans more shells, more gas
and more hell"
