 FROM VOTING

MOSCOW.-'He that does not work does not eat" is the chief mot to of the Soviet republic, embodied in the constitution, approved by the fifth all-Russian Soviet Congress and just printed and put in general cir culation.
 The right of holding office and vot. ing is confined exclusively to men and women over IS obtaining their livelihood by productive and public ly beneficial labor, as well as those persons engaged in domestic economy which affords to the former the pos sibilty of productive labor. For ex- ample, workmen and employees of all catagories engaged ini industry, trade, agriculture, etc., peasants and Cos sack farmers. who do not engage hired labor for profit"
 Soldiers of the Soviet army and navy and citizens who have been workmen or soldiers. but are inca pacitated. are also permitted to en- joy the franchise. Foreigners resid- ing in Russia who fall within the Soviet's definition of workmen and soldiers are also granted the ballot
 The right of franchise is specific ally denied to all persons, regardless of whether they fall within the cate gory of workmen and soldiers, if they hire labor for profit. live on un- earned income, such as interest from capital or income from property or en- terprise. Monks and Clergymen are also denied the right of franchise, to- gether with officials and agents of the former police, members of the former reigning house, insane persons and convicts.
 Absolute prevention of the exploita- tion of one man by another is the chief avowed purpose of the Soviet constitution. Consequently it abQl- ishes all class distinction, confis- cates all real estate, including that of the church, nationalizes all woods, minerals, waterways and livestock and authorize labor control of all industries, such as mills, mines and railways for the purpose of 'insur- ing the authority of the working peo- pie over the exploiters.

 OF THE BLIND

to resist our assaults; while we spread desolation and terror over the face of the earth, in order to pay profit of six per cent or better on the in vestments of our ill-gotten gains while we slapped Justice and Brother hood in the face, they continually told us that God was on our side.
 Can it be possible that they did not understand that civilization is built on our side.
 Can it be possible that they did not understand that civilization is built upon the united action of men? Did they decieve themselves so completely as to imagine that system of society would last which Shelters the noble and crushes the poor?" Could they not see the whirlwind of human signs and groans and the torrent of human tears that the ferocious system of ex- pIUlLdLlOH anu CuI-tHTOdL ltNlHS was gathering about them. Alas, no! Their education. their experience. their daily surroundings had blinded them to the realities of life. Living in fools paradise of imaginary safety, they twittered their song of contentment-as ignorant as the blind earth-worm of the coming storm.
 They even went so far as to tell as that we could keep peace among the nations of the world by building battleships--if we only built enough of them. Preparedness they said, twill prevent war Every great nation of the west, acting upon this advice, bled itself, year after year, of it's hundreds of millions of dollars to equip an army and construct navy to devise engines of death, and ro mobilize it's resources for conflict.

By SCOTT NEARING Our leaders have failed us.

The educated, trained, responsible men and women whose duty 1t was to show the way to their fellows, lost the way themselves. They were blind guides. When the great test came they proved by their own actions that as shepards of the flock they were un- worthy of trust.
 Our leaders did not tell us the truth. Their mouths were full of words and phrases, but the words and phrases were lies.
 They told us that we should let we'll enough alone. Things were not so bad. A little patience and they would fmprove-and they were to do the improving by sharing profits; building shower baths in the base ment; regulating" railroad rates; contributing to the Children's Aid Society, and praying to God on Sun day. we have things well in hand, ' they said. Follow us. We know! "
 They told us that the system Of society under which we live could en- dure. with it's monstrosities and pow erty. prostitution, child labor, unem- ployment and monotonous, endless grinding toll. It was possible, they said. to continue scheme that en- abled the few who were booted ana spurred to ride the many, who were saddled and bridled--gouging us Tor our coal and wheat; robbing us TOT the rent and plundering us Tor the dividends on watered stocks.

so MILITARISM IS PUT FORWARD AS SURE FOR ALL COMPLAINTS
(By J. S. Woodsworth)

(By J. s. Woodsworth)
 In his recent book, Democracy Af- ter the War" Hobson points out that military force even before the war had become necessary to defend the existing system and that he prop ertied classes are not likely after the war to let such a valuable instru- 1nent as the army slip from their grasp.
 "Militarism thus means, in the first place that, the propertied classes who furnish the command possess and are aware of possessing in the army a final and sure bulwark of defense against any really dangerous attack upon their political and economic power, the interestacracy,' either in the way of mob violence, a withhold ing of their labor power or constitu- tional reforms
 In Great Britain, even before the war loomed on the horizon, there was steady. widespread and vigorous campaign afoot turnout the country for compulsory military service in which all the Conservative interests were actively enlisted. Readers of the Conservative press know that mili- tarism is intended to stay Colonel Sir Augustus Fitz-George said in 1915, Compulsory service was necessary at this time when the people were get. ting out of hand" and Lieut-Col. w. H. Maxwell wrote in the Outlook of September 1915. Trade unionism- that shelter of sinking slackers-is imperilling our existence. and by it's action rot of our national soul has set in. One remedy, and one alone, can eradicate this state of rot-mar- tial law will cure it."
 Our national soul''-and who are we" that we set ourselves over against "the people,? Surely it would seem in these days that i've" are afraid of the people,! Who are we? The politicians and boards or trade and manufacturers associa- tions are very fond of talking as if they represented the interests of the nation at large, and yet in the next , Nreath they deplore the attitude of tasbs r and take precautions lest "the peopIe should become infected by radical io> cas-
 "The peop le getting out of hand"- Yet we live in 2'professedly democra- tic country-a country in which the people rule. That used to be the of democracy bo1Gre the in terestocracy began talking about "our nation"
 yThe newspapers contain interesting reatkrng these days. In recent num- her of the World the leading editor ial is devoted to "The Menace of Rev 
 olution" Europe today is in fer ment of revolution Germany has a socialist government. German Austria is Socialistic In Russia Socialism is growing daily. The same is true in Finland. In Switzerland a general strike of rev olutionary character is in force today in Holland in Sweden, * France and Italy Surely the people are getting out of hand!
 But the World would reassure us by stating that in Britain there is little or no taint of Bolshevism. We'll, Bolshevism is simply revolu- tionary Socialism. Is there little or no taint" of that in Great Britain?

THE PEOPLE ARE GETTING
 OUT 0F HAND EVERYWHERE

Let me quote few paragfaphs from "The Aims of Labor" by Rt. Hon. Arthur Henderson, M. P.
 'The outstanding fact of world p4licies at the present time-and when peace comes this fact will be made still more clear-is that great tide of revolutionary feeling is ris- ing in every country. Everywhere the peoples are becoming conscious of power. They. are beginning to sit in judgment upon their rulers"
 Ut will not be democratic vic tory if it results merely in the res toration of the capitalistic regime which the war has discredited and destroyed. Victory for the people means something more than the con- tinuance of the old system of pro- duction for the profit of small own ing class, on a basis of wage-slavery for the producing classes"
 "The producers have been robbed of the major part of the fruits of their industry under the individualist system of capitalist production.
 "A real peoples International s must be founded on an unshakable faith of the nations in the spirit of democracy"
 Not much reinsurance for the prop- ertied classes or morrow nationalists ;n such statements from one of tba ""n*ervative of the English Labor laadcrsl
 Even before this apuears in print Ii'e people in Great Britain may also snow signs of getting ;.ut of hand!
 Whether the revolution will be bloodless depends so much on the stupid i've. us and company" Let me again quote Henderson:
 Failure to appreciate the fact that the minds of the people have been deeply influenced by equalitar- ian ideals, to underestimate the popular resentment of class privileges whether based on the accident of birth or upon the possession of wealth which the war has strengthened rathe than mitigated, will be fatal in the future to governments and political parties alike"
 By peaceable methods, or by di- rect assault, society is going to be brought under democratic control.
 "lf barricades are indeed erected in our streets they will be manned by men who have learned how to fight and not by ill-disclipined mobs un- versed in the use of modern weapons. likely to be easily overcome byAtrain- ed troops. Revolution. if revolution is indeed to be favored on democracy. will be veritable civil war"
 Of this rising tide of revolution our 'leaderS Tn canada seem to be quite unaware. They think, or profess to think, that "the taint" is confined to few foreigners. So under cover of unearthing gang of desperadoes. Canada is to be sad dled apparently with a system of mili- tary police. In the same issue of the World is the following from Ot- iowa.
 "To deal with the menace which the authorities believe threatens the very basis of Canada's social and po- litical existence it has been suggested that the present Dominion police be greatly enlarged.

Possibly more of the people see it than the blind, "interestocratic" newspapers imagine!
 Yes, my comrades, I call them blind" They're not clear-headed enough to be hypocritical.--British Columbia Federationist
