SNOW CHECKED FIREMEN.
And Caused Much of $1,000 Loss in
Bellows Falls.

Bellows Falls. Feb. ia fire, which
started from an unknown cause about
2:30 yesterday morning. destroyed the
plant Of the Monarch Manufacturing
Co, together with all its equipment.
The building was a two-story wooden
structure and valued at $1,000, and
owned by the Liberty Paper company.
The machinery and stock was valued
at $1,000. The building was used as
an office and chemical laboratory by
the Monarch Manufacturing company,
whose business is the melting and saw
ing of the wax of discarded wax pa
per.
The inability of the FIRE department,
on account of the snow blocked street,
to reach the fire quickly gave the blaze
much headway and before stream Of
water was placed upon the fire the
building had commenced to crumble.

NDAYS CONSIDERATION
WAGE PROVISIONS
CHIEF CONSIDERATION
At Conference Between Director Cen
eral Hines and rs Leading Railroad
Executives on Redrafted Rail-
road Reorganization Bill.

Washington, ID. c., Feb. l9.-Wage
provisions of the redrafted railroad re-
organization bill, reported to the Sen
ate and House yesterday, enter largely
into the deliberations, beginning to-
day, of the conference between Director
General Hines and 25 leading railroad
executives.
Sections of the revised measure
which it was considered would attract
most attention from the railroad ex-
ecutives were those prohibiting any
reduction in the wages of railroad
workers prior TO Sept. l, and creating
permanent arbitration board OF nine
members representing the~public, the
workers and the corporations.
The conference with the railroad eN-
ecutives was called by Mr.. Hines to
ascertain the attitude which the rail.
road corporations would assume toward
the proposal advanced by President
Wilson in his reply to the demands OF
railroad employees that federal com
mission be appointed to consider the
wage problem.

RESERVATIONS

RESENTMENT
House of Commons Objects to Settle
ment without the Question Be-
ingReferred to Commons.

London, Feb l9.-The latest develop
ments in the Turkish situation have
for the moment pushed the Adriatic
question into the background in both
public and official interest. The reser-
vations which France and Great Britain
are said to have made with regard to
the Turkish peace terms, including the
retention Of the Turks in Constanti-
nople, have aroused strong feeling in
Parliament. where the opposition
strongly objects to settlement of the
Turkish question without its reference
to the Commons. Particular antogo-
nism has been aroused in opposition
quarters TO the decision to permit the
sultan to retain sovereignty over Con-
stantinople
The keenest interest has been man
ifested by the public regarding the pro-
posal which has developed to force a
debate on the whole subject in the
House of Commons late to-day.
When the allied supreme council met
this morning it again took up discus
sion of the Turkish question.

Industrial Unionism in the Soviet State
By A. Iozovzky.

The first all Russian Congress of Trade Unions
laying down the general line of revolutionary
policy and the necessity for the closest co-opera-
ton and nseparable connection with the Soviets
of Workers Deputies, came up against one OF the
most difficult questions in the theory and prac-
tice of the Trade Union movement, j. e., the role
of Trade Unions in the period of proletarian die
tatorship. What is the dictatorship of the pro-
letariat? 1t is definite labor system of gov
eminent, having for its object to destroy the
bourgeois Capitalist relations and the state
machinery created by them, to crush the resist
ance of the eXploiters and to prepare the condi-
tions and foundations for Socialist construction
Between Capitalism and Socialism there is a dis
tinct historical period during which the oppressed
class, taking advantage of the new government
machinery which it has created, forcibly estab-
fishes new social industrial relations, and to the
extent that these new relations are strengthened
the State power of the transition period gradually
dies out; for Socialist society is non-class
society, and where there no classes there is no
State. Consequently, to the extent that we de-
part from Capitalism and approach to Socialism
the state as such will disappear, and, as Engels
wrote, it will be placed in the museum of history.
The state will remain a mere apparatus for the
registration of distribution and production selv-
ing the economic needs of Socialist society.
The Soviet is an organ Of proletarian dictator
ship, and as definite form of state will dis
appear with the complete victory of Socialism.
But what will be the fate of the Trade Unions?
The Trade Unions have become converted from
fighting organizations against Capital into organs
of Socialist construction, and to the extent that
we advance from Capitalism to Communism the
centre of gravity of the work of the union will be
transferred to the sphere of organization and
administration. The main task of organizing
labor and production lies upon the Trade Unions,
and the more the Trade Unions are able to cope
with this task the more it will become merged
in national economy and become part and parcel
The toiler. [volume] (Cleveland, Ohio) 1919-1922, 1920-09-03

of it. In a completely developed Socialist society
the Trade Unions as fighting organizations in the
class war will disappear, and their place will be
taken by an apparatus for registration, dstribu-
tion, and public production.
But where will this apparatus for registering,
distributing, and producing in Socialist society
come from? What organization will create it?
Evidently it will be created in the transitional
period by the Trade Unions and the Soviets.
And its Importance will grow in proportion to
the victry of the social revolution and the
Strengthening of the new industrial relations.
Thus the Sovets of workers deputies and the
Trade Unions jointly create in the transitional
period an organ for managing production (Coun-
ellis of National Economy and the chief COM
mittees for the management of natonalized
undertakings) These organs, however, lose their
specific character as fast as we advance to Social
ism; the whole work of the Soviets and the Trade
Unions becomes concentrated upon the organza-
tion Of labor and production, but their idustrial
functions disappear. The Trade Unions and the
Soviet economic organs merge into one another;
single economic machinery grows out of it,
swallowing both unions and Soviets, thus being
the synthesis of all the organisations created by
the proletariat. Socielism emerges in its perfect
the proletariat. Socialism emerges in it's perfect
form Of organisation. This perspective of the de-
velopment and the rebirth of the existing prole-
tartan organizations gives rise to the idea of
Matchmaking the Trade Unions apd many COM
rades regarded this possibility as meaning the
immediate subordnation of the Trade Unions to
the Soviet Government. The first all-Russian con-
gress of Trade Unions which advocated the
closest cooperation and unseverabe connection
between the Trade Uions and the Soviet Of
workers deputies declared in its fundamental re-
solution that "n the process of development
which has been outlined the Trade Unions will
inevitably be converted into organs of Socialist
Government, participation in which will be obli-
gatory for all persons engaged in any given in
