Vote on Third international

Propos a that the general ex-
ecutive board of the Industrial Workers of the
World should indorse the complete program of the
Third international met with objections and
motion to that end was lost.
This question will be submitted to a referen-
dunn among the whole membership who will be
asked to vote also upon two alternative proposals:
"That we do not officially indorse the Third
Internationa's program, explaining to that
body that we favor an Economic Industrial Inter-
national"
"That we indorse the Third international with
reservations as follows: provided that we will
take no part whatever in parliamentary action,
and reserve the right to develop our own tactics
according to prevailing conditions"
The Third Internationaps program, as outlined
by its presidet, Zinovieff, includes: dictatorship
of the proletariat everywhere; soviet power;
mass-acton; appropriation Of banks land mono
poles and large capitastic establishments and III
dustries.

In developing those unions they have had one
advantage over this country Those unions were
developed after the Revolution. There was no
craft prejudices having their origin in the distant
past to be overcome. The unions were built in
the light of modern experience untramelled by
the traditions of previous period of industrial
development. But in this country the traditions
of the coffin society craft unonism of the nine
teenth century weigh heavily upon us. They are
the greatest barrier to working class solidarity
that can be conceived. Those craft barriers cam
not be ignored by the revolutionist. They have
got to be recognised as evils, and broken down
by arduous effort in the workshop and the
branch. Their existence imperils any revolutionary
construction, and they must be cleared out of
the way.

HEAD BUCKET Is RELIC NOW

One of the most grim articles OF
household furniture known to man is
the kubioke, or head bucket of the
japanese of the old days. The bucket
was a part of the furnishings of the
samurai. or fighting man in court cir
cleS. and was kept by him in high,
narrow closet with sliding doors close
to an alcOve, considered the place OF
honor Of a samurai's home. When the
head of the house offended his lord
there was no bother of trial or an
arrest. Instead there came very pO-
lite note from the court, which stated
the lord was sure that the samurai
would return the noble honor of his
family. The messenger took back
note as polite as the one brought, In
which the writer thanked his lord for
his honorable generosity.
He then shaved, bathed, donned
W hite robe, and committed hari-kari by
falling on his sword. His head was
taken Off and placed in the kubioke,
wrapped in white paper, and nap
kin bearing his crest was placed over
it. A messenger then took the bucket
TO the court. where the head was ex-
hibited and identified and then re-
turned to the family with polite note
Of regret.
The head-bucket now is merely a
decorative bit as little used as the
spinning wheel Of our own parlors.
