The Star today repeats what said June Ii. but
with this reservations These should Be and be
unity between the American labor movement and Bo-
shevism.
The State Federation of Labor is an American in
stitution and like most other American institutions
there can be found some stray Bosheviks among its
followers.
1t is essential that the labor movement in this state
be a united harmonious organization, dedicated to
justice and progress. This unity and this harmony
however, must not be obtained by any sacrifice of
American principles 1t must not and it could not be
obtained by or with any compromise with Bolshevsm
For more than 20 years, The Star has fought for
and with the labor of this state For the next 20
years and longer, The Star will pursue the pol
icy. The Star is willing. and always will be willing to
judge to its policy, as to its honesty, and as
to the results that it helps to obtain for them.
The Stars policy cannot be changed by those
noisy destructionsts within the labor movement
who attempt, because of personal ambition to
drive out of the labor movement every man,
every paper, every agency that will not become
blind party to their hare-braned schemes.
The Star has always contended that any movement
is strong and will make progress only it merits gen.
era support of the public This has been demon
in every struggle that labor has made to better its
ditions In all of these battles The Star has always
considered its best weapon to be public sympathy
and public opinion.
The labor of this state must see to il now that
the labor movement is not betrayed by oosethinking
schemers. They must aim to hold and to merit a
greater degree of support from every decent interest
from every honest newspaper, and from every honest
citizen
