The tremendous power over the
workers which capitalism everywhere is
seeking to establish is laid bare in this
latest evidence of the dictatorship
of capitalism. The capitalist press
generally is overjoyed at the enact
ment Of this measure that is calculated to
throttle Labor before it can hardly gasp
ont it demands. In fulsome eulogy of this
lay, the Kansas City Times gives away
the game in the following words" 1t (the
Industrial Court Law'') pledges the good
faith of the State to see that Labor's
rights are protected and at the same time
that capital is not endangered" "The
good faith Of the capitalist State" may

Ay workers these days We have mad
some evidence lately of the good faith in
which the capitalist State deals with the
workers. In reliance upon such faith the
workers can rest assured that they will
come out of the small end of the horn.
A "lahor" law Which "does not en-.
danger capital should be looked upon
with suspicion by the workers. Hidden
somewhere is certain to be snare into
which it is calculated that Labor will
stumble to its ruin.
This law, which capitalist interests
have enacted for the subjugation of Labor
is another evidence of the growing class
divisions in present day society. By its
provisions, Labors strongest weapon is
snatched from its hands and it is forced
to sit down to an arbitration game in
which the cards are stacked against it from

t The strike, as weapon in the hands
of the working class to establish better
conditions for itself is outlawed in the
state of Kansas.
The strike, therefore, the mightiest
weapon of organized labor, has been de-
clared illegal by the capitalist powers

anti-strike law is to render one liable to
A heavy fine and a term in the peniten-
tiary.
The recent strike of the miners of
Kansas struck the capitalist class of that
state with terror. 1t became frightened at
the power of the workers to throw the
system of labor exploitation into state of
chaos by laying down their tools. To com
bat the striking workers and to render them
powerless if possible by Legislative means,
the capitalist class of Kansas, thru their
representatives in the state legislature and
the Governors chair enacted the infamous
Industrial Court Law which makes it il
legal to strike.
Under the provisions Of this capitalist
class law, which became effective January
"a, it established an Industrial Court Of

RE-DEFINING LIBERTY
BY Scott Nearing


Thomas jefferson s brand of liberty
rested upon the assumption that every
man who wished 10 do so could own
a farm. When the Declaration of In.
dependence was drafted, 9S per cent Of
The American people lived outside of
cities. and 80 per cent of them work
cd outside of factories.
The Americans of the late 18th cen
irry lived in country where evesy
man who chose to do so could stake ont
his claim, put his two feet on his own
piece of land and make living by bis
)wn labor. If he shot rabbits or deer,
they belonged TO him; if he raised
corn or potatoes, they were his pro-
perty. lie owned his job and the pro.
duet that was created on that job.
Jeffersonian democracy expressed the
sentiment of community in which
men were economically self.suffieient.
That stage of American economic
life has gone forever. Never again will
it he possible for each family to make
Il living on its own farm. People today
are heaped up in Chicago, New York,
New Orleans and San Francisco. They
cannot milk their own cows or pick
apples from their own trees, Iustead
of being able to live by devoting timc
land energy to land which belongs to
him, the modern city and town dwellcr
is forced to seek out someone who
owns job.

means and methods ii advocated 10 ac-
complish its ends. Tom Clifford, also
a member of the Party State Executive
Committee was placed upon the stand
and testified to the character Of the
organization and the convention acts
at the time it was organized at Chi.
cagO. Another witness for the defense
was +. 4. Allison, present State Secre'
tary of Ohio. Mrs. Prevey also testified
to her part in organizing the Party
at Chicago.
Slim Evidence of Prosecution.
The only evidence Offered by tie
prosecution was paragraph in the
Manifesto of the Communist Inter
national issued at Moscow III 1915
This paragraph, which outlines the
plan of establishing The control Of
the workers and demands the arming
Of the proetariat and the disarmiug
of the bourgeoisie, together with n
paragraph in the Platform of the
Communist Labor Party, which ex.
presses harmony of relationship be-
tween the principles of the Party with
those of the Third international form
the basis of the charges against Mrs.
Prevey.
In deliberate and forceful manner
attorney Sharts showed from the fol-
lowing paragraphs of the Platform the
fallacy of the charges. That deca-
ration that the Party was in harmony
with the PRINCIPLES Of The Third
International, he argued, did not prove
that the Party declared itself for the
methods and tactics which were fol.
lowed by the proletariat of Russia in
ovcrthrowing the Cars government
and establishing the Soviet form.
Attorney Sharts read from the Plat
form of the Party as follows to dis
prove the charge of unlawfulncss made
by the prosecution in the indictments
"The Communist Labor Party oi
America declares itself in complete
accordance with the principles of Com
munism, as laid down in the Manifesto
of the Third International formed al
Moscow.
"ln essence, these principles are az
follows:
"The present is the period of thu
dissolution and collapse Of the Who'll,
system Of world capitalism. Unles
capitalism is replaced by the rule o
the working class, world civilization
will collapse.
'fThc working class must organiS
and train itself for the capture Of stat
power. This capture means the estab
lishment Of the new working elias
government machinery, in place of tn
state machinery of the capitalists.
"This new working class govcrnmcn
the Dictatorship Of the Proletarin
will rcorganize society on the basi
of Communism, and accomplish th
transition from Capitalism to the Con
munist Commonwealth.

"CommG not like the
present fraudinN st democracy
which, with allS< retensions to
equality, is merely disguise for the
rule of the financial oligarchy-bnt
it is proletarian democracy, based On
The control of industry and the state
by the workers, who are thereby free
TO work out their own destiny. II
does not mean capitalist institutions of
government, which are controlled by
the great financial and industrial in
terests, but organs of administration
created and controlled by the masses
themselves; such as, for example, the
Soviets of Russia.
"The Dictatorship of the Proletarat
shall transfer private property in the
means of production and distribution
to the working class government, to
be administered by the workers them
selves. 1t shall nationalize the great
trusts and financial institutions. 1t
chall abolish capitalist agricultural pro-
duction.
"The present world situation demands
that the revolutionary working class
movements of all countries shall closely
unite.
"The most important means of cap
turing state power for the workers is
the action of the masses, proceeding
from the place where the workers
arc gathered together-in the shops
and factories The use of the political
machinery of the capitalist state for
this purpose is only secondary.
