DEMOCRACY,s LAST STAND

Iowa Forum: Chas. Edward Rus
sell, noted orator, writer and journa-
list and member of the Root Com
mission to Russia, visited Des Moines
at the weekend, speaking five times
in the theatres and also in the Temple
of Labor to audience totaling several
thousands upon various themes con-
nected with the world war. Former
ly an ardent Socialist, he has taken
upon himself the task of enlighten-
ing labor upon those issues in which
it is particularly involved and to this
end he bent his best energies in a
most eloquent, persuasive, forceful
and greatly applauded address before
large audience of societies OF org
anized labor in the Trades and Labor
assembly hall on Sunday afternoon.
In the course Of this address he said:
There is no soul whose essential
interests are so deeply involved in
this war as those of the working man.
You have been told that this is a
capitalistic war, munitions workers
war, commercial war. Wall
street war. l tell you that that is
a lie and whoever put it forth was
either German spy or a German
sympathizer, or a German agent. You
have been told that malign and sin
lister influences were exerted in
Washington to bring on the war. |
tell you from intimate and personal
knowledge that that is also lie.
The munition workers did not want
war. They were making fabulous
sums of money, before it was declar-
ed, in supplying the Allies. Those
great incomes they have now been
obliged to give up. No man on Wall
street has anything at stake in this
war compared with that of the lab
oring man. This is not a capitalistic
Webster City freeman. [volume] (Webster City, Hamilton County, Iowa) 1884-1946, 1918-03-25

could not believe those things in the
early part of the war. I gave two
months of my time to southern Iowa
and l devoted my time to defending
Germans from those charges. Again
and again I made this statement, IF
l am bloody butcher, If practice
devilish things like are written
against the people of Germany, then
they do it.; and if / don't they don't,
because they are our brothers and
they stand for the same ideals" But
today there are unbelievable things
done by the German army. Has Pres
ident Wilson ever lied to us? He tells
us of many horrible things and shows
us that awful things have been done,
but for your sake and my sake, men
and women of German birth, he has
not opened the book of the shame Of
the German armies; to protect you and
me he has not told America what he
knows and things of which he has
absolute proof beyond the question Of
a doubt. The half has not been told.
Now want to make this appeal to
you. You are loyal, you love your flag,
but how many of you are actively
loyal to the extent that you are up
and doing something every day, doing
your level best tG make your country
win this war? wonder how many of
you have complained when Uncle Sam
conscripted your boy?

to China, and these are some Of the
words he said: eTf-@'
"My soldiers: lit isn't our soldiers.
it is always my soldiers: my
soldiers: You are going to fight for
my country and flag. Let me impress
upon you two principles; they are
these: Show no mercy, take no pris-
oners. l want you to 60 and make a
name for the German race. want
you to go and be like Attila and his
soldiers who today, after thousand
years, is famous in history and in
song among the nations of the world.
So act that no Chinaman will ever
look sidewise at German. Be like
Attila and his Huns"
Now do you know what Attila was?
One Of the most bloodthirsty, cruel,
tracherous thieves produced in his
tory until the present Horenzollern
emperor. The world called him "The
Bloody scourge."
In 1895, to further the plan laid by
the great Germanic association, they
planned the Kiel canal which gives
Germany way from one sea into the
other without the Danish straits. One
day Wilhelm caused one of his large
battleships to pass into the Kiel canal
and it would not pass through and
the kaiser gave an order and demanded
large appropriation from the Reich
stag, demanded the widening of the
canal to make it large enough for the
largest dreadnought that was planned
for the German navy. That canal
was finished and dedicated the 14th
day of July, 1914; do you know what
happened on the last day of that
month?
This war was started in Potsdam
and was planned by the German gov
eminent. On the 2Sth day of June a
little incident happened down there
in the Balkans and princeling of not
much importance was killed by
crazy student. Austria demanded that
Serbia do certain things and sent an
ultimatum which meant war because
the things required were 50 humili-
ating that no man, even dog catcher,
would consent to it, and Serbia says:
1--WE will do II of the 13 things and the
18th thing we will arbitrate," and
Austria says: "Arbitrate nothing: do
the whole thing or the war is en-"
Then Russia said she would come to
help the Slav state, and modified
5000 men near the Austrian border.
Unser Wilhelm-our devilish Wilhelm
said: "See here, fellow, you are
making trouble out there; send those
soldiers back home at once" and he
sent secret messenger commanding
the German armies to mobilize. He
was the first man to declare war, he
was the first man to move soldiers, he
was the first man to invade a neutral
country, and he has broken every
pledge made or recognized among the
civilized nations of the world, ANDY
upon his black soul there must rest the
crimes of this war, because he was
responsible for it.
Now l want to say to you, men OF
German birth, that the charges made
by the press in regard to atrocities
committed are true, so help me God,
in whose sight, I now stand and OF
whose gospel am messenger. l

war. This is not war among nat
ions. 1t has nothing to do with
Alsace-Lorraine.
This is war to establish your
rights to life, liberty and the pur-
suit of happiness, a war to prepetu-
tate that government of the people
by the people and for the people
which has been your most cherished
heritage. 1t is a war between the
idea of government by popular right
or government by inherited right.
Between these two ideas there has
never been peace. 1t is a war to
the death between democracy and
autoracy. Whatever is wrong in any
autocracy the burden of that wrong
rests upon the toilers. The aristoc-
ratio ruler can look out for himself.
He is self-sufflcient and allpowerful.
If autocratic Germany wins in this
war it will be here as it was in Rus
STA. The working man will bear the
griefs of tyrannical masters. "But
in every democracy the laborer has
adequate protection. In the great
fundamental principle of equal rights
upon which it is built lie his hope
and strength. Whatever is wrong
within democracy the common
people can remedy. They have the
power and give it character and
make it what they will. When the
people suffer in an autorcracy the
rulers in their benevolence hand
down something to alleviate the
wrongs. Here in the United States
eighty per cent of the people belong
to the working class. We have the
power within ourselves to change
conditions, to remedy injustice.
1T is our freedom which hangs
trembling in the balance. II Germany
wins in this war there will never
again be known binding moral force
between nations. If Germany wins
We might as we'll tear up all of our
treaties. 1t is impossible to conceive
more solemn treaty than that under
which Germany promised to respect
the neutrality of Belgium. In ruth
lessly violating it, in treating 1t as
but scrap Of paper, Germany COM
mitted the most monstrous crime of
the ages. Never again can autocratic
Germany hold the trust and confidence
Of any nation. II Germany wins this
war, autOcracy will rule the world.
With Germany triumphant, we can no
more have domocracies in the world
than we can breathe in a vacuum.
What are Americans going to do
for democracy? We will swear to do
all that freeman can do. 1t is possible
to pay too high a price for life; 1t is
never possible to pay too high price
for liberty. God bless the United
States and make it worthy of the
confidence that this hour millions Of
stricken souls repose in its resolute
and sacrificial purpose that this world
shall be made safe for democracy"
