Toiler of the resut)
The workers and peasants of Russia, after
long years of suffering under the autocratic rule
of czaristic government, which represented cap
italists and land owners, overthrew that govern
ment and established the rule of the workers
through the Soviets.
The Soviet Government has since November
1917 been striving to rebuild Russia to insure the
happiness and wel-being of the workers of that
country. In spite of the blockade and the un-
ceasing war against it, Soviet Russia has succeed
ed in improving the conditions under which the
workers and peasants live. It has achieved wond-
ers in raising Russia out of the disorganization
and chaos into which it had been plunged by the
world war and the government of the car.
Today in Russia the great masses of the
workers control the government The labor unions
are represented in all phases of the work of pro-
duction and have part in determining wages,
hours, and all matters which directly concern the
workers the factories. No longer do a few cap
italists and land owners control the Mines mills
and factories, the land and all other means of
production and distribution for their profit. The
workers and peasants are conducting the work of
society for the service of society," not for the pro-
fit of the few.
Understanding that the success of the rule
of the workers in Russia will inspire the working
class of other capitalists countries follow their
example, the capitalist governments of the
world have leagued themselves against Soviet

Russia, and are seeking to destroy it. They block
ade Soviet Russia and starve innocent womeE
and children The governments of France, Eng
land and the United States have financed one
czarist general after another and melted them
to make war against the workers and peasants
of Russia. When these generals and their armies
were destroyed England, France, and the United
States turned to Poland and urged that country
to war upon Soviet Russia. Now that Poland hax
been beaten they threaten Soviet Russia with
direct use of their power.
Because the workers everywhere realize that
Soviet Russia is fighting THEIR battle as wen
as the battle-of the workers and peasants Of Rus
sia, they are rallying to its support English and
French worker have threatened general strike
and revolution if their governments attack Sovief
Russia. Workers of Germany and Czecho-Slovakis
