Croatians and Slovenians the Poles
and Hungarians who revolted and
overthrow the ancient tyranny Of
Central Europe. They have been
talking freedom in the plains OF
Poland-they have been thinking
and talking freedom as they reaped
the rich harvests of the Croatian
fields. They sang about freedom
when they cut the high fir trees.
Slavish, Croat, Serb, Pole, they held
their language and their customs in
tact and inviolate in the face of all
oppression, whether Turk, Austrian
or Prussian.
They came to this country in
search of freedom, and when they
found here political freedom but
an Industrial slavery so great that
they had no time to become citizens
of the country of their. adoption.
Slowly they prepared themselves for
revolt.
That is why they stick. That is
why the bosses can't threaten them
back to work.; that is why the
bosses can't drive them back to
work.
They came to this country for
freedom and for opportunity and
they are going to get it. They have
thrown off tyranny in their own
lands, They have fought for democ-
racy and won there. They are
fighting for democracy nere-and
they will win. .
hi ot% ~,
ings, you can know their thoughts.
Courage, Solidarity, are the weapons
Freedom their goal, and when
they hear them talked about they
applaud. -.
You will hear. plenty of talk of
Bolshevism among then1-but it is
talk of the :arch-Bolsllevist, Mr..
Gary, whom they look on ,as an
enemy OF their country. You will
hear talk of anarchy, but it is talk
against the judicial anarchy prac-
ticed against them.
They are getting very impatient
with this They are getting still
more outraged with the ugly spirit
that is being fomented in: the steel
towns. A spirit of lawlessness,. or
mob spirit, for when in "a civilized
community. the citizens; take zth e
law into their own hands moi 4Eule
is not far oft. .:~ s:.>:::<
The citizens Of Johnsfown5 tried
to stop the strike by threatening
Foster and driving the organizers
out of town. When they blew the
big whistle for the first time since
Sept. %, they found they were
wrong. The men didn't go back to
work, in spite of the newspaper re-
ports to the contrary. They kept
Foster from speaking in Wheeling;
this didn't open the mills. Now the
! same spirit if@5repressien, is showing
it's ugly, dangerous head in Youngs-
town.
Throughout the steel district they
are fighting their obscure battle for
democracy. They are fighting it in
the picket lines and in their meeting
places. Go to an outdoor meeting at
the state line where thousands of
men tramp over from Farrell, or in
East Youngstown, or in Mingo, or in
Wheeling, and there is the same
earnest crowd of men. Men with
strong frames and thick. a:1ns-solid,
patient men-as you look at them
you realize that you have here in
this strike patient, implacable, the
will to freedom of Central Europe.

to better wages, fewer working hours,
improved working conditions; it de-
velops independence, manhood and
character; it fosters tolerance and real
justice and makes for a constantly
growing better economic, social and
masses.
I'm countries where wages are best,
the greatest progress has been made
in economic, social and political adj
vancement, in science, art, literature,
education, and in the wealth Of the
people generally. All low wage-pay-
ing countries contrasted with America
is proof for this statement.
THE American standard Of life must
be maintained and improved. The
value of wages is determined by the
purchasing power of the dollar. There
is no such thing as good wages when
the cost of living in decency and COM
fort equals or exceeds the wages re-
ceived. There must be no reduction
in wages; in many instances wages
must be Increased.
1.-The workers of the nation demand
living wage for all wage earners,
skilled or unskilled-a wage which
will enable the worker and his family
to live in health and comfort, provide
a competence for illness and old age
and afford to all the opportunity of
cultivating the best that is within
mankind.''
We have here at once an expression
~ ho ii1efifio1 ~
pie and a program for their attain
ment-all in keeping with the machin-
cry and the purpose Of democracy.
There are some among employers who
would stifle and crush the trade union
movement. 1T offers resistance to ar
bitrary decisions in industry. It COM
pels acknowledgement Of the reason
ing power of workers and Of their
right to a voice in the determination
of conditions affecting them.
What folly is this! What utter alb
sence Of vision. What complete fall
ure to realize the most commonplace
principles of justice and democracy.
Liberty in the United States of
America has got to be maintained
against attack from both extremes
the extreme of proletarian revolt and
the extreme of the autocracy Of power.
Those who fight the constructive
fight for liberty, those who really keep
the faith with democracy, will be re-
garded by both extreme as of the
enemy. But in truth they are the
great majority Of Americans-the
overwhelming majority. They are the
great America that will live because
it belives in the principles that have
been written into that which is Amer
lea by the struggles and sacrifices and
privations of democrats from the mo-
ment that freedom first breathed In
the air Of this continent.
Autocrats of the right and of the
left-fools and anti-democrats, each
with his greed. each with his blind
ness-these must give way in Amer
lea, because there is in truth better
day coming, by the grace of democracy
and the ideal that is in the hearts Of
men.

The Modes and Persians have been

also been raised. Subjects that
meant nothing have been wisely dis,
cussed. Some important subjects
have been ignored. Some regulations
have been made. Some have been
lost. II was ever thus.
Upon the whole it has been a, grand
