A Talk To Miners = and Others
BY L. j. Wydra.
BY L. ]. Wydra.


1--WE declare our firm opposition to any war
which the capitalist governments of the world
may undertake against our Russian brothers and
appeal to all coal miners to refuse to produce any
coal or to do work of any kind to help them in
this murderous conspiracy"
The West Virginia Struggle.
Another matter which should be considered
by the organized coal miners is the struggle in
West Virginia. This is a very important affair
which should concern the miners at large, especial
ly the Illinois miners. Our brothers there are
bounded by corporation thugs, spies, etc. The
miners wives and children are suffering, being
starved and thrown out of their homes in social
ed 'free" country. Why is it that President Lewis
and the other officials of the u. M. w. of A. do
nothing?
The coal miners in West Virginia are carry
ing on the struggle to free themselves from the
clutches of the coal corporations and we must re-
cognize that an injury to one is an injury to ALL
Their fight is our fight and if the officers of our
union do not want to take action, then say it is
high time the rank and file should take it UP. And
if 100000 coal miners cannot do it alone, let us
take the entire labor movement. Let us all unite
as body of workers to help the coal miners of
West Virginia win their struggle.
Railroad Workers and Anthracite Miners.
The same thing applies to the so-called "out-
law" railroad workers and the anthracite miners
who are making fight for living wages. We are
not doing our duty when we stand idly by and
offer no help to any body of workers who carry
on their battle alone against the organized pow
er of the capitalists class
Fellow workers. the time has come when we
as workers in general must unite as solid body
in One Big Union to accomplish our freedom. And
furthermore, working men and women, it is our
duty to look after the coming generation to see
that they are not enslaved as we are at present
The slave chains of the masters are clinching
tighter and tighter. Let us ge. rid of that slavery
It behooves us, vanguards of the coming genera
ton, to work, to organize for working class con-
troll in industry and government.
The toiler. [volume] (Cleveland, Ohio) 1919-1922, 1920-09-17

The fighting coal miners OF the Bellevlle, Ill
nois District, who have always been in the fore
front of the industrial struggle in America, are
now beginning to wake up to the fact that labor's
fight for freedom is worldwide affair and that
the workers of all capitalist countries must stand
or fall together 1t was with this new idea in mind
that local union No. 2703 of Niger Hollow mine
No. passed resolution endorsing Soviet Russia
with its working class government and calling on
all class conscious workingmen, especially miners
to stand by our Russian brothers and refuse to
do any work that would help their enemies.
Following this lead, the sub-district miners
convention held at Collnsville passed similar
resolution and the subject is up for discussion in
great many of the other locals in this district For
the information of miners and other workers in
different parts of the country, will quote part
of the resolution adopted which sets forth the
reasons for the action we have taken.
Workers Control in Russia.
To-day in Russia the entire control of the gov
ernment is in the hands of the organized workers.
The management of industry fixing of wages,
hours, shop conditions and other phases of the
work of production is handled directly by the
labor unions without any bosses or operators
drawing any profits from the labor of the workers
or exploiting them in any way.
'The idle, parasite class, that lives by sucking
the blood of labor, realizes that when the working
people of other countries see that working class
control is success in Russia and that it is much
better than the present system of wage slavery,
they will organize themselves for action to follow
their example. Therefore they are doing every
thing in their power to break down the Russian
Soviet Government. They blockade the country
and thereby starve innocent women and children,
hoping by this to weaken the courage of the brave
workers and peasants
"They also furnish money and supplies to diff
ferent generals of the old cars regime who have
tried time and again to organize armies to defeat
the revolutionary forces. But the brave soldiers
of the red army, fighting for bread and freedom,
have defeated all such attempts

RAISE LARGE FAMILIES.
| CLEMENCEAU'S A[)WCE
Premier, Visiting His Constitu-
ency, Points to Present Need
of Repeopling France.

PARIS, Friday January (by the
Associated Press) Families of ten
and twelve children are being urged
by Premier Clemenceau, who - tour
ing the department of Var, his con-
! stltuency in the chamber of deputies.
NJ. Clemenceau points out to his rural
| audiences the need of repeopling
| France. laying emphasis on the fact
| that large families are more COM
mon in northern than in southern
| France.
| While the premier is adhering to
! his determination not to talk politics
! on his trip, he is giving wholesome
| advice to the throngs who come to
| see him.
| DO not expect taxes to be salts
factory to YOU he said yesterday
Taxes never please the payer. but
the duty to pay is as imperious as
| that fulfilled by the soldier. who is
in danger if the taxpayer fails. Our
! allies have outstripped us in this.
, In England. for example. the charge
on the taxpayer is much heavier than
in France. Our country assuredly
suffered greatly through the war, but
has today an improved material sit
| uation which demands sacrifice on the
part of her people
Talk of Presidency.
| NJ Clemenceau is daily receiving
| visits from mayors and councillors.
| many of whom have walked twenty
miles to pay their respects. AS one
| left the premier's house yesterday
he said:
I'VE shall be coming to the Elysees
palace to see you the next time
The premier raised his hand. stop
ping the speaker, but smiled when he
replied:
Don't talk about that"
Political and diplomatic circles here
are speculating on NJ. Clemenceau's
course regarding the peace confer
ence il he is elected President of
France on January II. They are ask
ing if he will continue to sit as a
delegate or appoint a plenipotentiary
to take his place. Under the French
constitution the president may nego-
| tate and ratlfy peace treaty, acting
personally or through an Intern edi-
ary. If he resigns as premier and is
| elected president he may continue to
hold his place in the conference until
FEBRUARY II. inauguration day, if
President Poincare renews his powers
as plenipotentiary.
Marriage Story Denied.
PARIS. January 3-Allusion to the
approaching marriage" of Premier
Clemenceau to the widow of a former
senator and former ambassador of
France" is made by Humanite today.
1t is understood that this refers to
gossip which has been current in
Paris political circles for some days
that NJ. Clemenceau had married
Countess d'Aunay, widow of Count
Charles LIE Peletier d'Aunay, former
am mbassador of France at Bern. The
marriage was said to have taken place
in England a fortnight ago. An
authority very close to the premier.
however, declares the story is quite
without foundation.
The countess is of an American
family.
Available records fail to show OF
