AMERICAN LEGION STANDS
FIR MON PRINCIPLES

If the good people of South Caro-
lima have had any doubts as to
whether the South Carolina branch
Of the American Legion would ad-
here to the principles Of unselfshness
and patriotism upon which it was
founded, that doubt was dispelled at
the second annual State convention
just held in Spartanburg.
Although the convention did not
concur in the recommendation Of the
executive committee looking toward
the withdrawal of the South Carolina
branch from the national organiza-
ton, it passed resolutions commend
ing them for their zeal in endeavor-
ing to maintain strict adherence to
the basic principles underlying the
birSn of the American Legion; and
condemning in the strongest terms
possible the activities that the ma
tional executive committee is making
and has been making with regard to
asking for legislation in it's selfish
interests.
The question whether the ex-ser-
vice man is due a bonus, or extra
compensation at the hands Of the
government was not considered. But
from the outset there was no ques-
ton as to how the convention stood
with regard to the legion asking or
making demands Of congress for a
bonus for the able bodied veterans.
It was splendid convention. One
could not help but be favorably i'm
pressed with the personnel that COM
posed it. The discussions were Of
high order, and the business of the
convention was dispatched with alac-
rity and thoroughness. In f-ct the
delegates from post No. "a were so
impressed with the convention that
they decided that it would be a good
thing for Newberry and our post to
have It meet with us next year. Ac-
cordingly an invitation was extended
to have the next convention in New
berry, and it was accepted.
Greenville also put in bid for the
next convention, and along with the.
invitation from the Greenville post
letters were read from the Young
Mems Business League, taa chamber
of commerce, the Rotary club and
the Kiwanis club of that city, urging
the convention to come to Greenviiie.
in 1921. But Newberry WAS chosen
as the next convention city. There
must be reason. Post No. "a feels
confident that the good people OF
Newberry will see to it that the le-
gionaires shall not be disappointed
in their choice.

In the confusion the ad man got
a candy cut mixed up with cut
for battery repairs and instead of
having DR.. P. E. Way advertise fine
candies had his name as druggist to
an advertisement for battery re-
pairs. Well, really there is some ex-
cuse for that in these days, because
it seems that the main business Of

THE ToILER
What American Workers Need

power over the productive machinery and
also to prevent the workers from securing
control of or the overthrow of their State, the
government.
Here we have the class struggle outlined
before u.s. The propertyless wage workers de-
pendent upon the use of the productive machin-
cry to live and on the other hand the owners,
exacting from the workers part Of their pro-
duct for the privilege of working and earning
living, backed up by their own government,
the police and military power.
The struggle therefore, between these two
one for the ownership of the industrial machin-
cry and the control of the State Unless the
workers are to remain enslaved forever to the
lords of mill and mine and rail- and forever
pay tribute to them for the privilege Of re-
naming upon the earth, they must dispossess
the present capitalistic parasitic owners and
transfer that ownership to the workers.
But Immediately that attempt is made,
however legally, then the worker learns with
terrible emphasis the true character of the
capitalist State, of the government Of the cap
italists for the capitalists The capitalist State
at once steps forward to prevent, with its
police and military power if necessary, any
encroachments of the workers upon the "sacred
rights of private property. In other words,
the capitalist government comes to the rescue
of the propertied class whose instrument it is.
At once then must be seen the necessity for
the erection Of workers State more powerful
than that of the enemy and one which will,
in the hour of the breakdown of the capitalist
system, such as we seem even now to be enter
ing, be able to supersede it in the management
Of industry and the workers affairs.
The A. +. of l.. has no conception Of this
revolutionary necessity. The A. F. of L. is not
revolutionary organization. II is bound up
body, boots and breeches in the continuance
of the capitalist system Of production and the
continued exploitation of the workers 1t has

italist system OF productions The railroad
workers strikes, the recurring miners strikes,
the shutting down of the textile mills, the
strain of the credit SYSTEM these together with
the wide spread slowing up Of industry and
the thousand and one other strikes that are
constantly occurring indicate the impossibility
of the continued functioning of the capitalist
system in providing the masses of workers
with the necessities of life thru their continued
and steady employment.
More and MORE as conditions of capitalist
production neal the point or collapse and con-
ditions for the working masses continue to
grow harder, the necessity for the workers to

self to their intelligence.
The outright parastism Of capitalistic
ownership of industrial means and processes
becomes ever more vivid to the exploited in
dustrial slave as the facts of huge profits are
learned while the worker, in spite Of higher
wages, bonuses etc., finds himself put to- it
harder and harder to meet the needs of his fam
lily with his daily wage.
Why should the workers. the producers of
all wealth, thus strive from morning till night
and year IN and year out to the end OF their
days for the most meagre and shameful exist
ence, while the parasitic profiteer rolls in lux
ury from the proceeds Of mearned labor,
himself producing nothing, or if it happens
that he perform some labor Of management,
receives not only the wages of a manager, but
also heavy toll from each workers laborf

capitalist State Of the right Of a cunning few
to own the means by which all men must live
and to exact from the masses major portion
Of their product for the privilege of working
with these means of production that such
rabber system continues. Thus we see that be-
hind the ownership Of industry by parasitic
few, there stands the State, composed Of the
owners of these means of life, organized into
one compact and class conscious body for the
purpose of retaining their ownership and
