the wrath of the people underneath just King
George the Third feared the coonss in the 18th century

OF course the SNUG organs Of capitalist democracy
seek TO conceal this situation The New York World, mouth

Communism East and West points out that California is
sending woman to prison membership in the commun-

Since it does take brains to write along the we'll
defined rut laid out for capitalist newspaper scrbbers, this
kept literary machine doubt justified in displaying
his gross ignorance That is what he gets paid for
If he had followed events he would have known that
GoW barred from the ballot the Communist
ddate because capitalist convicted him of the
kind of alleged crime that is claimed Anita Whitney
committed the other side of the continent violation of the
state syndcasm law The expoters United States supreme
court has acted similarly in both cases. The loaded dice of
employers Justice" turn up the prison for
both Ben Clow and Anita Whitney atho than 5000
miles may separate New York from California They could
just well have been opposite sides of the EARTH Cap
haIsm everywhere operates in the sef-same way.
New York City isn't satisfied with ruling ctIow off the
ballot The allied patriots, with the National Security League
cooperating starting drive to put the emblem of the
Communist Party the crossed hammer and SICKLE off the
ballot 1t has hitherto been permitted go the head

sentences.
All of which indicates that the home of Wall Street isn't
comfortable in the midst of growing numbers of Commun-
ists But to refuse Communist right to vote
their opinions at the polls election day result
ing the international bankers little temporary
from worry But only succeeds in stirring to
greater efforts to build and organize their revolutionary
power Seepess nights haunt only the bedsdes of the
enemies of the revolution.
