Modern electrical Treatments have
no comparison with the old crude cleo
tric batteries and shocking currents.
At The Electro-Medical Institute the
current that lights homes and runb
street cars Is used and 10 harnesBed
to the wonderful machines by which
every jar and jerk is removed and It
is then sent through the body as soft
ly, smoothly and pleasantly as ray
Of sunshine.
After the treatment the patient
feels like normal, healthy person on
an ideal spring morning. No garments
need be removed and no embarrass-
ment is engendered.
The effects of electrical treatments
are marvelously rapid. Relief can be
given on one or more treatments
whilst often a cure is accomplished in
the milder cases in the same time.
No force Is SO uniformly potent in
relieving and eliminating human his
as electricity In the hands OF experts
who understand the use OF the cur.
rents. It Is the only remedy upon
which all human beings can rely. It
is positive and certain in action. II

The treatment that has snatched

"They Won't Stick Together

Said jim Crow to his buddy on the same job
'"The trouble with the working class is that it
won't stick together. Reminds me of story I
heard some days ago. You know a drowning per-
son is supposed to come up three times before
he's finally gone for good
'Wel, life saver at the ocean beach made
grand rush to save guys life that had fallen into
the deep water The life saver got there just as the
drowning man was coming up for the first time.
He grabbed his leg, and the leg came off. 1t was
artificial.
'"The life saver waited till he rose the second
time and as he came to the surface he grabbed
hold of his arm The arm came off. Artificial
again.
'The life saver waited for the drowing man
to come up for the third and last time. He grabb-
ed him by the hair. 1t was wig and the wig
came off. That settled it. The poor guy drown
ed because he couldn't stick together"

SATURDAY, NOV. 10, 1920.

At the crucial moment they are changed from
mere industrial shop committees to political
ralying point in the struggle for power
Will The Trade Unions Die?
Either the reactionaries will retain control of
the trade unions, in which case they will be bull
wark of capitalism, or, the bureaucracy will be
displaced by militant leadership, in which case
the trade unions will perform revolutionary
function. Since the trade unions are, essentially a
working class organization the latter is more pro-
bable
We see that the trade unions are still thriv-
ing in Russia. They served revolutionary pur-
pose during the conflict And now with these
very shop committees or soviets established as
the organs of state power, the trade unions in Rus
sia, now established on more industrial basis are
aiding and supplementing the soviets in industri-
al reconstruction
The toiler. [volume] (Cleveland, Ohio) 1919-1922, 1920-11-13

The above article is e | | e and we
hope that every week we will be able to publish
contributions that show the same clear insight
There is one point, however, in regard to soviets
and workers councils that must not be overlook
ed
Zinoviev, the president of the third interna-
tional, in thesis on Soviets has pointed out the
danger in too premature organization of these
very potent instruments of the working class. He
showed, for instance, how the soviets that were
organized during the German revolution were SUBJ
verted to the interest of Scheidenan Noske and
Co. He tells us to observe also how the soviets in
Petrograd, before the period when the workers of
Russia took decisive stand against the constit-
uent assembly, were very often misled by Keren-
sky's followers and other reactionary factions.
When the idea of the soviets became popular
in this country there were widespread efforts to
organize local councils. Because their was no need
for them they withered away one after another
The organizations of soviets must be preceded by
certain definite conditions or they amount to less
than nothing. There must be period of national
turmoil, with spirit of revolutionary aggressive
ness developed on the part of the working class
before soviets can be effectively organized

The Rank and File Veterans, an organization
