tives of Russian science, number of scientific and
educational organisations, technical societies, and
laboratories have been established.
The Soviet Government is doing away with the
system of favouritsm, official servility and flat
tery career hunting, ntrgues, etc. Now the door is
wide open for every energetic worker of science,
and there is no need for one to depend on nfluen-
tial connections.
Imperialism, which is the torture of the masses
of the people, compes modern technique to serve
the purposes of destruction of man by man and
directs the creative and inventive faculties of the
engineers to the shedding of human blood. Our
activity, which may turn our earth into an in
dustrial hive of buzzing machines engaged in use
full production, is now diverted to its mutiation and
destruction. Our science is corrupted, and becomes
destructive: armoured trains, torpedo boats am
munition factories, military aeroplans, dynamite
on which guttonous Imperialism feeds-half the
guilt for all this falls on u.s. engineers. Some of us
have sold our professional conscience for comforts
of life Others out of fear, obedienty carried out
the murderous orders. The results are cemeteries
as large as whole countries.
Only the Soviet movement will lberate science
from the necessity of serving criminal designs The
victorious proletariat leads us into sphere of use
full social production into wide regions of peaceful
conquests of the human mind.
Capitalist oppression has made technical science
not only immoral, but has brought it to stagnation
and degeneration. Shutting out the wide field of
invention, it drives our powerful work into the
small channels of refining and perfectng the
trifles of Capitalism. The efforts of the engineers
are not directed to the erection of great hygenic
proetarian centres but to serving the appetites of
High Society for uxury-and this is the sign of
decline.
The Russian engineers were at one time the
enemies of the proetarian revolution. They were
in error Events have proved to them the right
BUSINESS of the cause of the revolutionary workers
Now the Russian engineers have become convinced
of the fruitfuness of the economic measures of the
Soviet Government, and are now glad to contribute
their share of work % the social endeavours

much of individual responsibility l

seventy five thousand dollars and

ever would tempt me to add to or

I doubt if there were many lawyers
in the United States who had that

Cleveland was most satisfactory as

goons who have a perfectly good

laugh as hard as anybody at a farce,
and when an after dinner story is

What they lack is the playful mind.
They regard humor as something

stories, which they can see the point
of as readily as their neighbors; and
sometimes they are a little baffled
by magazine like Punch because
they find in it pictures accompanied
by captions which manifestly are not
jokes. How then, thinks the COON,
can they be humorous? Sometimes
goons become somewhat uneasy as to
whether they really have a sense of
