WORLD IMPERIALISM
AND THE SOVIET UNION

not Immediately affected in adverse way by the
Russian Revolution, it is still the most dangerous
foe of the Soviet power because of its stability and
tremendous resources in every essential factor The
gold of the United States saved Europe from social
revolution after the and this gold will again be
thrown into the scales when they in danger of
being tipped in the direction should the i'm
perialsts meet with in the gigantic struggle
that darIens the political horizon today.
AS the tenth anniversary of the world shaking
Russian Revolution approaches the workers of all
lands and particularly Of the United States and
Great Britain have heavy burden placed on them.
1t is in their power to block the plans of the blood
thirsty imperalists. Here in America the labor
bureaucrats are even brazen in their loyalty
to capitalism than their European brothers. William
Green is baptizer of battleships and Matthew Vol
is chief stoolpigeon for Wall Street Those
tionaries taken into the councils of the ruling
classes and are cogs in the government machine.
They will lead the anvil chorus for with the
Soviet Union when Great Britain considers the time
ripe to send up the warning signal
The workers of Great Britain and the United
States must demand in country the resumption
of trade and diplomatic relations with the Soviet
Union and in the other immediate recognition. They
must serve a warning on the imperalists that
against the Workers Republic will not be tolerated.
that the young manhood of both countries will not
be used to reshackle the limbs of the workers and
peasants of Russia with the letters of slavery
even more oppressive and degrading than Czarism

at the time of writing the leaders of the general
council are preparing the introduction of resou-
ton calling for breaking of relations with the All
Russian Council of Trade Unions and the dissou-

straws show that the winds of reaction are blowing
strongly in Great Britain and constitute the home
front preparation of the government FOR the war
thar is considered inevitable
The British ruling classes feel that with the right
wing leaders loyal, the latter control the
when war breaks out. The Communist Party is
weak and has not yet secured a large following
among the workers compared to the strength of the
reactionaries. With the right wing leaders the
continent carrying a relentless propaganda
against Communism and the Soviet Union, the i'm
perialists led by Britain feel that they have the
trump cards in their hands for the terrible gamble
they are about to stake their future on.
When the bugles Of for the crusade
against the Soviet Union ring out the of the

it will in the future. Strong financially and
