DOCTRINES OF THE l. w. w. IN PRACTICE

Whatever one may think of the Bolshevlk they
must at least be given credit for having presented to
the world during the last few weeks clear demon
stration of the way in which the doctrines Of the
/. W. W., as we have so often heard them expounded
in this country, are logically applied in actual prac-
tice. The doctrine Of international honor is excm-
plified by reputation Of the national debt. The
principle that the masses of the people have the
right to control their government is first put into
practice by preventing the peoples representatives
from meeting in constituent assembly and next by
intimidating them at the point of the bayonet. The
oft-repeated assertion that the social revolution
stands for justice liberty and fraternity becomes
the justification for CHASTITY carnival OF massacre
and pillage. A demoraized and broken nation, I'M
able either to wage or to make peace, unable
even to prevent anarchy and starvation within the
confines Of it's capital, land false to its allies
and despsed by it's enemesthat is the situation IN
which poor Russia finds herself after few months
of government according to the tenets Of the BerE-
man-Haywood- Goldman propaganda
Surely this sorry spectacle, the hideous details
of which have not yet been published to the world,
should afford timely warning to those social work
ers philanthropists and economic reformers in this
country whose humanitarian tendencies have some.
times led them to more than distinct sympathy
with the professed ideals of an organization which
know that the words, No God, no master, imply.

TO PUT DOWN RUTHLESSNESS

Just one year ago. Germany declared ruthless
warfare by her U-boats. She announced that inter
national law and the common rights of all the peo
pies Of the world were abolished She drew line
about certain regions Of the high seas and threat
ened to Stay all peaceful, we'll as warning peoples
caught therein.
1t was plain declaration Of barbarism, and, as
such, warranted the armed resistance Of the whole
world Whoever started the war, whatever started
it, that declaration justified any nation earth that
had the courage to do it in warning on Germany
The United States waited It admired the Ger
man people for their industry and their contribution
to progress in the arts and sciences. 1t had long
enjoyed the advantages Of enormous and amicable
trade with them. 1t was inconceivable that Ger
many would carry out SO brutal threat. Our coun,
try was unprepared and knew the frightful cost of
war te
The Lusitania had been sunk our government
had been repeatedly outraged deceived and con-
spired against by the Teutonic autocracy at home
and abroad but still it impossible to believe that
great nation had deliberately adopted barbarsm
as national policy. That fact, however, was soon
demonstrated. The U-boats mercilessly destroyed
passenger Ships hospital ships and the trade ships Of
almost every nation having such. 1t was barbarsm
rampant, indscriminate and foul. It attacked the
lives, property rights and happiness of all peoples
not party to it. To neglect to put it down was to
consent to wordenslavement, to agree to the vile,
falacious axiom that might alone is right.
1t brought on war with Germany It was enough,
even had we not the slightest vision Of world made
better by more Of democracy.
