flicts, lock-outs and strikes. The
British worker began to tend toward
the left, oftener and oftener taking
recourse to the Bolshevist method of
direct struggle with capital.

that in such state of things the
gross threat of lockout by the mine

a few years ago the question was one

THE CAUSES OF THE BRITISH
STRIKE.


THE first question is what were the
4 reasons for the British strike. How
was it possible that England, that
land of capitalist power and unequal
led compromise, was transformed re-
Gently into an arena of great social
conflicts? How was it possible that
Great England" the mistress of the
seas" was transformed into land of
a 'Bolshevist" general strike?
l would like to mention a number
Of circumstances determining the un-
availability of the general strike in
England. The time has not yet come
when an exhaustive reply can be
given to that question. But We can
and we must mention few decisive
factors determining the unavoidable
ity of the strike OF these circum-
stances we can note the following
four as the most important:
I Formerly England occupied a
L. monopoly position among the cap
italist states. As possessor of num-
Der of large colonies, and with a
model industry she was able to play
the role of the workshop Of the
world" and draw tremendous super
profits on the side. That was the
period of "peace and prosperity" in
England. Capital drew the super
profits, crumbs from these super-Drof-
its fell to the lot of the upper strata
of the British labor movement, the
leaders of the British labor movement
were gradually won over by capital,
and the conflicts between labor and
capital are usually settled by means
of compromise. But the further de-
velopment of world capitalism, spec
tally the development Of Germany,
America and in part Japan, appearing
as competitors of England on the in
ternational market, undermined the
former monopoly position of England.
The war and postwar crisis struck
still another serious blow at the mo-
nopoly position of England. The
super-prof1ts began to dwindle, the
crumbs falling to the lot of the labor
leaders OF England began to be ex-
hausted. The voices for lowering the
standard of living of the working class
in England grew louder and louder.
The land of peace and prosperity"

Stain Reviews the British General Strike

ers are conducting their strike. Hence
that unexampled readiness which the
British workers revealed in support
ing the miners by the general strike.
n The fourth circumstance is the
Il domination of the conservative
party in England, the most evil en-
envy Of the working class. Of course
any other bourgeois government
would in principle have proceeded the
same way in crushing the working
class. But beyond doubt only such
sworn enemies OF the working class as
the conservatives could have so light
ly and cynically challenged the whole
British working class, when they
threatened the lockout. 1t is today
accepted as an absolute fact that the
British conservative party not only
wanted the lockout and strike. but
that It had prepared for it for nearly
a year. 1t postponed the attack on
the miners last July because it con-
sidered the moment as unsuitable"
But it prepared for the whole of that
period, gathering supplies of coal, or
ganizfng strikebreakers, cultivating
the proper public opinion, in order to
strike at the miners in April. Only the
conservative party could have taken
such a governmental" step.
THE conservative party wriggled in
to power on the basis Of forged
documents and provocation. The very
first day after coming to power, it
used all fits means Of provocation to
attack Egypt. For a whole year it
has been conducting a direct war
with the Chinese, people, having re-
course to all the tried methods of col
onial plumber and oppression. It
spares no means to prevent the rap
proachment between the people of the
Soviet Union and the peoples OF Great
Britain, gradually preparing for a pos
stble Intervention. Now it is attack
ing the working class of its own coun-
try, preparing this attack for a year
with a zeal worthy of better aim.
The conservative party cannot exist
without conflicts at home and abroad.
Can one wonder, after this, that the
British workers answered blow for
blow?
Such are the essential circum-
stances determining the unavoidable
ity of the strike in England.

Conditions in Union Coal Fields Grow Worse;
Young Miners Work for Lou Wages in Cities!

Working next to me in the shop on
a drill press at forty-five cents an
hour, is a big fellow. | knew by his
actions that he was not used to work
ing in a factory and the surroundings
were new to him. So l asked him
where he halls from. He told me he
came from Herrin, Ill. and that he
has worked in Herrin mine for over
16 years, and now the mine has been
shut down for over seven months and
no jobs were obtainable in the coal
mines around there except to go into
the nonunion fields, and he would far
rather work in a factory at As cents
per hour than go into the scab mine
. Why is It that men like that, who
have spent most of their lives in the
coal mines are forced to go into the
factory TO work for low wages and
damned hard work?
And this is not the only case :.
II one were to investigate the shops
in Chicago, Detroit Cleveland, etc,
one would find thousands OF miners
who were driven from the mines by
the latest drive OF the operators 10
lower wages and worsen the condi-
lions in the mines. And in order to
lower wages they have TO smash the
union, or build company unions.
AS soon as the hard coal strike was
over, the coal operators started
drive on the soft coal miners union.
They did not come out and say that
they were out to smash the union, or
build puppet company unions, but
they did II more skillfully. They
started to shut down most OF the
union mines and opened UP their scab
mines in West Virginia, Kentucky,
Virginia and Alabama, and today we
find that more than two-thirde Of the
soft coal produced comes from the

markets. 1t is natural that after all
this, the easy squeezing of profits
from foreign markets, to which Eng
land had recourse Of old, is now be-
coming impossible. The old colonial
method of a monopoly in plundering
markets and sources of raw material,
had to give way to the new method OF
capturing markets by means Of cheap
wares. Hence the endeavors of Brit
ish capital to cut down production, or
in any case not to extend it too
much. Hence the tremendous army
of unemployed in England as perm
anent phenomenon during the last
few years. Hence the threat of I'M
employment, holding the workers Of
England in suspense, and arousing in
chem militant temper. Hence that
lightning reaction which the threat Of
the lockout aroused in the workers in
general and In the miners in particu-
lar.
. The third circumstance is the
O' endeavor of British capital to de-
crease the cost Of production in Brit
ish industry for itself, and to cheaper
Its wares at the cost of the interests
of the British workingclass. It is no
mere accident that the object Of this
fundamental blow was the miners in
this case. British capital attacked the
miners not only because the coal IN
dustry is in bad state of affairs as
far as technique is concerned and
needs naturalization" but mainly be-
cause the miners have always been
and still remain the vanguard of the
British proletariat. To bride this
vanguard, cut their wages and length
en- their working day, thus settling
with that vanguard and then continue
the job in the other ranks of the
working class-therein lies the STRAIT
egg of British capital Hence the
heroism with which the British min

TUNE 10, 1926-on the above date
y there was an excursion from the
International Seamen's club to visit
the workers rest homes. The excur-
sion party was composed of British
seamen from the ships in the port.
The rest homes are run by the Trade
Union council for the benefit of the
workers.
The workers have these homes to
go to when their holiday comes
around, so that they can recuperate
their lost vitality. They get fort
night, a month OF six weeks holiday
year on full pay, according to the
nature of their work.
THE first place that we visited was
l. rest home No. 1, set in spacious
grounds. This was a palace which
formerly belonged to the Sha of Per-
STA and in which he kept his harem.
The buildings are of oriental design,
with domes and marble stairways.
The gardens were wonderful, flower
beds. fruit trees, and tinkling foun-
tains all over the grounds.
Inside, the buildings were beauti-
fully decorated, on the walls we're
some splendid oil paintings and valu-
able tapestries.
The workers here received us with
enthusiasm, the only passport one
needs to the Russian workers heart,
is union card. Most of them en-
joying the rest here were workers
from the different unions. Naturally
they were greatly interested in the
failure OF the general strike, and the
present miners lockout. These are
the workers who are donating a quar-
ter of a days wages to help their
British comrades. International sol
idarity functions with them, even If
national solidarity does not function
with the General Council of the Trade
Union Congress. We sat down TO
lunch with the rosters finding the
food fresh and OF a good quality, and
plentifully supplied.
One roster weighed out with a %
pound gain after two weeks.
7 EAVING No. 1, we got on the
IL street car and rode along Probe
tartan boulevard. This long road is
lined with workers rest homes, chill
dren's homes, sanatoriums, all former
palaces Of the former bourgeoisie, now
used for the benefit of the class who
built them, I. g. the working class.
We got off the tram at No. 2, and
were received with the same enthusi.
astic reception by the rosters. We
answered innumerable questions while
on our tour Of inspection. It is sur
prising how we'll informed the Rus.
sian workers are on all political and

trees and had a good sing.song, finish.
