which the world-famed writer Ana
tole France has written to the
French edition Of Jack London's
"Iron Heel" which has just been
published in book form.
s"rhe Iron Heer'-That is the
forceful expression which Jack Lon
don uses in order to characterize the
Plutocracy. The book which bears
this title appeared in the year 1907.
It portrays the conflict which one day
will break out between the Plutocracy
and the People, if the gods in their
anger so permit. All! Jack Lon
don possessed that genius which per-
ceives that which remains hidden
from the mass Of men. He possessed
powers which enabled him to antici-
pate things. He foresaw all those
events which are bling enacted in
our times. That fearful drama which
he presented in the "Iron Heel" has,
up to the present, not become an ac-
tuality and we do not know where and
when this prophesy of the American
disciple of Marx will be realized.
Jack London was socialist, in fact
even a revolutionary socialist. The
man who, in his book, discerns the
True and foresees the Future with its
Wisdom, Strength and Goodness is
named Ernest Everhard. He, like
the author, had been a worker who
earned his bread with the labor of
his hands. For you must know that
that the man who wrote fifty wonder.
full volumes, all permested with the
defiant and challenging spirit of life
and who died young, was the son Of
a worker and began his magnificent
career in factory. Ernest Everhard
is full Of courage and wisdom, full Of
strength and gentleness, all of which
qualities are common to him and the
writer who has created him. And
in order to complete the similarity
existing between the two, the author
gives his hero a wife possessing q
great soul and strong mind, whom
her husband makes a socialist. And
we know that "Charmian," together
with her husband Jack, withdrew
from the Labor Party so soon as thi:
party betrayed signs of moderatism.
The two revolts which form ths
subject of the book which / here
present to the French reader, are Of
a bloody nature. They exhibit, ir
the plans of these who provoke them
such treachery and in their carrying
out so much cruelty, that one asks
oneself whether they would be at al
possible in America, in Europe ant
particularly in France. For myseli

Accordingly, having ~ascertained

arrest. On the thirteenth day of
