ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

We are all engaged in the business of
Revolution, friend Bolshy. Don't imagine
you are alone.
Civilization is Revolution.
Those nations are stable which have the
genius of orderly Revolution. Those nations
are unstable, and perish eventually, which
cannot change.
II Is not refusal to change, opposition TO
change and inability to change. that insure
permanency. Quite the contrary; 1t is the
skill 10 change easily.
During the bloody period of the French
Revolution and the Napoleonic wars, Eng
land underwent profounder and more ex-
tensive changes than France. But the Eng
lish people understood the art of reform
without violence.
What we call evolution Is simply Natures
law OF continuous progressive Revolution.
The true Revolution is Growth.
Democracy is simply that condition of
liberty. and freedom OF movement, in which
Revolution is constant and constructive.
True and wholesome Revolution is De-
velopment of the Past; the growing and
bursting of the Seed Of the Past into the
leaf and bloom Of the Future.
Hence, no Revolution is good and abides
unless il has it's roots in the Past
So Jesus said, HE came not 10 Destroy
the old law, but TO fulfill"
And Amerieanism is simply a working
out Of the deep instincts of elf-government
in the Anglo-Saxon stock.
The Seattle star. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1899-1947, 1919-12-05
On the ISSUE Of
Americonism There Can
Be No Compromise
The Business Of Revolution

The idea of a League of Nations is a
Revolution; 1t is new; yet it is old; Tor 1t
In a revolt against the delusion Of militarism,
and goes back 10 the more primitive basis OF
humanity and the human family.
All true Revolutions are a return to truth
and nature and clearing away Of error.
Hence they do not destroy, they conserve.
Violence, force, frightfulness are never
progressive, they are slumps.
We are coming TO better order, TO more
equal justice, to the reign of conscience, to
the supremacy Of the Common Good, TO real
cooperation; we are learning team play, and
how TO get along together as one big human
family and not as cats and dogs.
II is big job. 1t means the reorganiza-
ton of the world. And we must not be in
hurry.
The objectionable sin in Reformer is
Impatience.
We are Building. And you cannot Build
the third story il you tear down the second.
We are Building the House Of the Future,
for our children's children.
We will have to be Courageous, and Work
Hard, and TO have confidence in the soul
Of the People and in that God who works
out Destiny in terms of Righteousness.
Wherefore, if you put away Violence, and
Hate, and Vengeance, If you keep in mind
that no Progress is continuous without
Law, and that no House Of the Future can
be constructed without Faith and vast Pa
tience, you may sign YOURSELF
Yours for the Revolution.
