II. THE RADICALS

Il now pass to the second foe Of
democracy with which we are TO
deal The radical unionist is a mem
ace to democracy though he may not
admit it and may not believe it,
II think the intelligent and liber-
al-mlnded will agree that the civil
lized world does not now regard la
Dor as a commodity At the height
Of it's power, the doctrine Of laissez
faire' did classify labor as COM
modify, to be haggled over in the
market as any other, with the buyer
Cthe employer free to offer what he
wished, and the seller (the employee
free to accept or reject the wage
price and to contract accordingly.
The accepted doctrine was that in
free market, the price would adjust
itself rightly. But the labor market
is not a free market nor are the par
ties to the contract on equal terms
It is commonplace now to point out
that labor is the most perishable OF
all commodities. With the passing
moment it is gone utterly. The en-
pIoyer can wait; If the employs
must, as a rule, eat and be clothed
and sheltered withal. or perish. 1t
Is not a free market, but a forced
market if labor is to be regarded as
a commodity.
Collective bargaining is eorol-
larry Of the doctrine that the laborer.
slngly, is not free agent. II is just
and fair for the laborers, as group,

rights the family relationships, the
observances of religion The recon
struction of all of these and of the
institutions growing out of them is
the aim of the Reds.
The Reds declare that the church
and the family are fundamentally
economic institutions, a bulwark to
the present economic organization of
society. and that their existence in
the present form is conditioned upon
the maintenance of that system. We
deny that religion and the family are
primarily economic institutions, but
we admit that they have an economic
basis and that their destruction is
logically involved in the program of
the Reds. They can not exist, the
institutions of private property hav-
ing been overthrow. The breeding
of the species could go on, though it
likely would not. unless under gov
eminent compulsion, but the family
would inevitably perish.
A Doctrine of Materialism
The Reds found their doctrine of
the race and of human society and
government ESQ far as their CON
structive program has taken form)
on material wealth. Theirs is dis
tinctiyely a materialstic philosophy.
Man is a biological specimen. Like
every other biological species, his
survival, his development and his
domination of his environment, de-
pend upon the action and reaction
between himself and a material sup
ply of his wants. Races and the race
rise and fall in response to this sup
ply.
"Curiously enough, the race long
ago discovered the truth in this, viz,
the Importance of the economic basis
of society to it's own developments
And long before nations were invent
ed, long before there were constitu-
tions or laws, the race itself invent
ed the best means of assuring a prop
er economic basis for racial develop
ment, namely, by spontaneously ere
ating the institution Of private prop
erty. Property and the laws of prop
erty have grown up spontaneously
everywhere in all ages, the particular
status of property adapting itself to
the times and conditions. 1t was the
best, if not the only means by which
the race could assure itself against
hunger and cold and heat and fam
inc and disease and pestilence. The
races where the need was greatest
where failure to provide meant pos
sible destruction, developed the sys-
tenn of property more rapidly and
perfectly. The races where nature
had provided lavishly for mans
wants, as in the tropics, developed
the system least. The former in
creased in intelligence, orderly gov
eminent, abundant supply of human
wants and in happiness The latter
remained in or degenerated into saw
agery. The action of man in appro-
priating and converting material
things into forms of personal prop
erty and the reaction of his work

groups, above all things needed re-
cruiting ground and they found it in
1 the ranks of labor in countries where
labor had neither property nor po-
| litical rights, Where better could
they go? Nowhere For. sad to re-
late, labor has borne and always will
! bear heavy burdens sad to tell.
! also, labor has had many easy VIC
Tins of falsehood. It is all too true
that labor in all ages has had cause
for complaint of its burdens, of it's
| rewards, its working conditions and
its opportunities
we can not deny that poverty
alongside of luxury, want alongside
of superabundance, ease beside the
ungracious and ugly. all too surely
leave sting within the heart of the
less fortunate which may easily be
stirred into envy and hatred. Add to
this the fact that European despotic
governments, grinding missionaries,
had for ages rendered the poor the
victims, not Of the institution of pri-
waite property, but of governmental
forms and laws which were unjust
and unfair, and we see how readily
blind leaders of the blind might
entice the laboring classes along with
!, 81 f,,t
All wealth is the product of la
bor,' runs the Red philosophy
Therefore, all wealth belongs to the
laboring class Therefore its pres
ent owenrship is the result of ex-
ploitation and theft.
IT. for the sake of argument, we
omit land and capital from consid-
Grafton, the problem might run
thus: All wealth is the product OF
labor; therefore, it belongs to the
lab0rer who produced it. TO enjoy
the fruits of his labor, he must have
not only the right to its use, but the
right to assign it for an equivalent
Therefore, his assignee owns the
product For the sake of both the
assignee must be protected in his
ownership
Rightly divide, therefore, the
word of truth DO not SANDER La
Dor by assuming that it belongs un>
der the Red flag Pity it when IL
has been led into marching behind
/ it.
"On the other hand, do not for
an instant assume that the Reds can
/ for a moment pose legitimateiy as
( the champions of union organiza-
ton, high wages, fair working condi-
tions, collective bargaining, justice
as between employer and employe,
They concede that this is only
temporary fighting ground used to
create discomfort, gain recruits and
weaken the enemy. If they succeed
American democracy will perish.
The warfare between our constitu-
ton, laws and ideals and those of the
Reds is irreconcilable 1t is war
fare to the death. No temporizing,
no mollycoddling, no false cry OF
constitutional rights can be permit
ted to protect these enemies. The
traitor has no constitutional rights.
He is self-determined outlaw.
They that choose the sword must
perish by the sword.
American democracy is based up
on the postulate that there is but
one class The doctrine OF the Reds
is that there are two classes, the one
or the other OF which must perish in
the irrepressible conflict. They have
chosen. Let the Reds perish.

and of these things upon the man
himself has been the history of civ
ilization.
The saving OF portion and its
use in creating more, industry and
thrift. abstinence and consequent in
creasing abundance are responsible
for a large share of human happi-
ness. The savings which restraint
of appetite have spared constitute
the capital with which production is
multiplied The system OF property
and property rights developed by
men of various races, while not per
feet, has been beneficent in its effect
upon the race.
Come now the Reds and declare
that all the misery Of mankind, all
want and woe, theft, murder, arson.
adultery, all inequality and injustice
in human society. all wars all op,
preston and slavery are due to the
system of private property which
mankind spontaneously invented and
developed and which organized GOV
ernments have recognized and tried
to form into an orderly and just sys-
tenn. With Proudhon the Reds de-
clare, All property is theft With
Lasalle or Karl Marx, they declare.
Capital is an historical category, -
that it is an invention for the ex-
ploitation Of labor The regenera-
ton of man is conditioned upon the
destruction of the system of private
property
A Program of Destruction
So the program of the Reds is
one of destruction, One propaganda
list wants it to come quicker, another
would consent to its coming more
slowly, but all agree that the pres
ent structure OF society. in which
property is the most essential thing
must give place to a new social sys-
TEN in which private property in the
instruments of production shall have
disappeared. Contrary to the eX-
perience of the race as it is without
historical precedent which might
confirm the faith that is in them UNI
mindful of the nature and needs of
man, without experimental trial, the
Reds have evolved out of this air a
dream of reconstructed race. They
have looked out at our present status
and see only the blackness of dark
ness in it; no hope, no brightness, no
progress from remote past, and
rushing forth from their dream, they
are ready TO overthrow, to destroy,
to kill, to lay waste this fair earth,
with high fanaticism, believing that
if once they could reduce it to a
chaos, they could erect thereon a
fairer and better world, On this con
structiye program, the Reds are not
agreeds. Some say each man will
be law unto himself. There will
be no crimes for there will be no law
" NiOldlc. ueSt are lilt anal tIlt6Ir
Under this program man would soon
be below the savage. With others,
self-controlled groups are adequate,
at least as a step forward in the de-
velopment. But for the most part,
the autocratic state into whose exist
ence all individuals are merged, with
complete control of all land and cap
ital is the political goal aimed at.
1t is the Prussian ideal of the state
carried to the nth power Under
this theory, the individual exists for
the state, not the state for the indi-
yidual as in the American democ-
racy. The autocratic state will own
