Every American trade unlon1st
 The bolshevist machine IS close operating through several perfectly C among which are the following;
 I. The Soviet government.
 2 The Red political international.
 3. The Red labor union internatlon- 4. The Red so-called famine relief
 5 The Soviet Wireless.
 These are the distinctly primary or ganizations through which the bol- shevist machine operates.
 In addition there are agencies ere ated under soviet direction and super vision in our own country, as well as certain agencies probably operating independently, but i'll coordination with the whole soviet scheme. Among them count these:
 I. Foster and his so-called Trade Union Education League.
 g. Soviet Russia, a soviet magazine, having around it considerable ma chine.
 3. The Federated Press.
 4. Socialist newspapers.
 5. Certain liberal" publications,
 6. Editorial writers who are either deliberately treacherous or who like to appear "advanced" and who are sufficiently ignorant to have no con ception of what is true advancement
 7. Certain forums and lectures.
 8. Pseudo liberal groups of idle rich and their parasite "intellectuals:" :" Gullible people have swallowed more bunk about bolshevism than any other modern subject. Persons of kindly disposition whose sympath- ies for anything labelled "liberal'' are gaine deasily and are fair game for the bolshevik propaganda
 The terrible Russian famine has been worked to the limit, even in the trade union movement, to win support for bolshevism.
 The famine is mostly the result of bolshevik incompetency and ot bol- shevik policy Peasants cut produc- ton to the narrowest limits Of neces- sity as the direct result of bolshevik conhscation. In the face of drought this minimum production shrunk to absolute inadequacy American re- lief under American auspices IS and has been going forward to the capac- ity of transportation. Despite thls the soviet machine, sardonic ln it's cruelty builds it's own alleged relief organization, using the famine, horri-
  as a deliberately created propaganda machine.
 Bolshevik foreign policy as applied to America is simple and unchang1ng It is:
 First: Destroy the American Fed eration of Labor.
 Second: Destroy the American gov ernment
 This fits well with the customary American Liberal" tactics in this country. "Liberals" like Norman Hapgood, John Haynes Holmes, Wal ter Lippman, Oswald Garrison Vil- lard, Norman Thomas, George F., West-the whole "liberap literary betting party" outht-are strong for anything that will hit the American Federation of Labor. These worth ies think American labor is all wrong for the simple reason that American labor will not let itself be run by the long-haired gentry who have given Greenwich Village its national re- pute.
 There you are. .s Anybody who under estimates the notifications of the soviet machine IS foolish. Bolshevism has no great strength in America and can get none as long as II Call DS kCpl III lHN OpNh' But it is continually striving for sec recy The worst thing that ever hap pened to w. Z. Foster was to be dragged on to the public platform in Chisago under the critical analys1s and merciless 1ambasting of Samuel Gompers. Foster with his ''thousand agents in a thousand towns" was a figure of mystery as long as he could prevent debate and open discussion, Under fire in public he was lost.
 But there are in most communities those who continue the secret work of bolshevism. They aim at the foundation of the American labor movement Great power is behind them The advice of a terrorist ma chine as old as the Russian czars IS theirs.
 Look out for this red menace. And don't imagine that 1t is absent because you can't see it.
 Don't imagine that it has been con verted when Lenine utters smooth words. The devil always promises the world with gold and old rose trimmings to all whose hostility may be stilled by fair words.
 While the soviet power holds on in Moscow the soviet propaganda will be present as a menace in America. Soveitism means dictatorship, tyran- ny, despotism secret police, the alsh for the unwilling and the disobedient.
