the widest kind between the two coun-
tries.
Russia is to afford Italy the

those granted other countries.

Action on the Une1n.
plOyinent Crisis.
By LEO WYDRA.

The unemployment situation in
America and the world is the worst
in history. / take it the workers are
responsible for this condition for they
have maintained the present profit
system whereby the capitalist class
is retained in power and allowed to
enjoy all profits from labor.
Society is divided in two classes,
the capitalists and the workers. The
workers work and the capitalists en-
JOY. This system produces unemploy-
ment thru the unequal division of
work and the products of work. We
must conclude that the private owner
ship of the means of life is the basic
cause of its progency, unemployment.

ment. is to do away with its cause
private. ownership of the means by
which workers live.
We have 100000 unemployed in
America. They are unorganized. AS
1 long as they remain unorganized the
unemployment question will not be
solved.
This army of 100000 unemployed
may be the first symptom of the ap-
preaching social revolution in Amer
lea. 1t behooves us as social revolu-
tionists to organize and teach the un-
employed the right tactics to proceed
with the establishment of workers
government here.
The government is silent on the
unemployed question. It's democracy
is for the capitalists only. The gov
ernment has allowed hugo extortions
of profit from the labor Of the work
ers in the past. Why should not these
profit mongers now be forced to pay
the workers living wages while the
factories are idle?
Here in Bellville (Ill.) there has
been an agitation for the organiza
tion of the unemployed for the pas'
six months. But it is only recently
that the workers have seen the neces
sity of it. We now have three resolu
tions on this question to go before
the Sub-District Convention (of tn,
miners) in August.
What is needed is national or
ganization of the unemployed-a pow
erful army Of the workless workers
which is determined upon the cstab
lishment of a workers government
here. Local unions should take up thi
question of unemployment and at
tempt to find n solution for it.

1t is, know, contrary to revolu-

called Hero worship" This is as it
should be; for, all too often, we have
found our ideals to possess feet of
clay. NJ Aks
However: In these degenerate days,
when most of us seem to have the
spirit, and minds Of sheep, and the
remainder exemplify the general char

! think, we'll worth while to suspend
the rules long enough to note the
passing Of a MAN.-Sid Hatfield,
Matewan, W. Va Chief of Police.
That he was "Old fashioned" and
"Hoozierfied" is evident from the
fact that he, public official, actual

the strict, impartial enforcement of
Constitutional guarantees. That he
was "soft," he amply demonstrated
when he trusted to the integrity Of
other officials and laid aside his guns
before setting out for the "Hall of
JUSTICE" on that last, fatal day.
That he was a MAN, having the
courage of his convictions, and will
ling to fight to the death for what
he conceived to be the RIGHT, we
must acknowledge; and, honor him fol
it, as being a genuine personality in a
world of shams.

But she must have assistance. To
avert an awful calamity in the Volga
provinces, world cooperation is ne
cessary. 1t is vitality essential that
the United States do it's share. To
this end every American organization
of radical, liberal or humanitarian
tendency should be set in motion at
once. Well fed America must con-
tribute generously to the aid of starry

Famine Conditions in Russia
By William 2. Foster
(Staff Correspondent The Federated Press).

Moscow, Aug. S.-Judging by the
reports now reaching Moscow from
the stricken districts, Russia is faced
with terrible famine situation. Over
an enormous territory, about as large
as France and Germany, and which
is ordinarily one of the great grain
growing sections, the crops have failed
almost completely. The long, rainless
period has literally burned them up.
What little escaped the unprecedented
drought has been devoured by the
countless myriads of locusts that have
descended upon the country. The
district affected lies principally in the
valley of the Volga river and stretches
virtually from the Caucasus mount
aims to the Urals.
Many millions of people are actual
ly at the point Of starvation. Great
armies Of them are wandering away
from their homes, seeking escape from
the famine districts to more favored
localities. This starvation coming so
soon after the harvest time indicates
on the one hand the completeness of
the crop failure and on the other the
smallness of the food available. Be-
cause of the ravages of Kolchak' S
bandits two years ago and the severe
crop failure last year the peasants
had been living from hand to mouth
and depending altogether upon this
years crop for quick relief. Hence
when it failed them they were thrown
Immediately into the grip of famine.
Americans Inquire About Famine.
Yesterday a number of Americans,
most of them journalists, who are
anxious to help arouse public opinion
to Russia's great need, paid a visit to
Lunacharsky Of the general relief
committee. We found him in his Of
flee, tiny room in a Kremlin palace
AS he told us many narrowing details
of the famine in various provinces he

tion. He said that in many places the
people are actually starving. Thou

children to the governments care ir

them somehow; while they themselves
wander off to they know not what
fate, eating roots and bark from trees
anywhere they can find them. He sale
that the number of children in gov
ernment institutions, children's colo
nies, etc., in the stricken districts haC
trebled in month. From other sources
we heard that many mothers arr

be a terrible calamity. Inevitably the
country would be faced with, famine
next year again, no matter how
generous the relief later on this year.
Hence, to save the peasants from the
great disaster of consuming their seed
corn is the first task of the govern
ment. 1t is drumming up food sup
plies on all sides and rushing them to
the famine belt. The slogan, EVERY
thing for the Volga PEASANTS" is ring
ing through the land. In response to
my request for statement on the
situation, Lunacharsky sent me the
following letter:
Famine Figures.
Moscow, August 8, 1921.
"Wm. 2. Foster: 1t is impossible
to give detailed statistics of the adult
population of the famine district, but
we can give the figures which the
relief commission against hunger on
the Volga obtained. The total number
of the population starving and seek
ing aid is 100000. We must give
minimum of nine pools Ia pood is
about SO pounds) Of bread to each
person. We must understand that the
livestock in the district must also
have food, and that the psychology Of
the peasants is such that they will
divide their food with their livestock
in order to save them.
"It is understood that besides bread
the famine stricken must also have
other products. We must, to begin
with, bring minimum of 41,000,000
pools of bread to the peasant popula-
tion, and 100000 to the town
population. Up to the first of Sept
ember we must get to that district
100000 poods of seed. I would have
/ you note that the 100000 pools is
needed at once and the 44,000,000
within two or three months time. But
when we have done this we have not
conquered the famine; we have only
removed it's keen edge.
"The government does not believe
that it can give the minimum amount
Of 59,OO0,O0O poods unaided. Besides
it will surely be necessary to supple
ment this amount with another so
per cent. We hope that the help of the
whole civilized world will furnish us
not only the minimum of 59,000,000,
but as much as 1O0,O0O,00O pools.
