dition? The problem of the high cost of living will be solved only so much, as much as the organized American proletariat is capable, not with words but with deeds, to measure its strength with American capitalists and the government that is defending their interests. All "accursed problems" can be and must be solved only from this point of view.

Taking about the Plumb Plan, the editor says: "Nationalization in a capitalist system is not the same as nationalization on the next day after victory of the working class. The struggle for a nationalization must develop on a line of systematic attach on all positions of the ruling class. The full comprehension of the contradiction of labor's interests with the interests of capitalistic society and its organs of power, is a necessary condition to secure a victory."

"But one thing is sure: The American proletariat is becoming active. It began to understand that it is being fooled not only by its outspoken enemies, but by enemies that are pretending to be friends.

"Here is where a broad field opens for activity of real representatives of the working class, who are standing on the point of view of relentless class struggle. The moment is now a hot one, and it is necessary to work without rest. Gompers and those who are with him will not be able to stop the stirred human wave, if only the masses of American proletarians will actually comprehend their class interests."

DETROIT, MICH.-A lecture on "revolutionary syndicalism" was held here April 3d. Comrade Kopnagel of Chicago was the lecturer. Notwithstanding the rain, more than two thousand persons had gathered at 8 P. M. As the theme of the lecture concerned the anarchists and I. W. W., there were many of them at the meeting.

The lecture of Comrade Kopnagel has opened the eyes of many, who up till now refused to join the Bolsheviki movement, considering themselves more radical than the Bolsheviki. Comrade Kopnagel proved that at the present time the Bolshevist movement is the real practical revolutionary labor movement and that every worker must join it if he does not want to remain a revo lutionary phraseologist.

As an I. W. W., I must express my thanks to the lecturer for the truth he told us. Let us not forget this truth, and let us work for the spreading of Bolshevist ideas.

Long live the Russian Socialist Federated Soviet Republic! Long live the dictatorship of the proletariat!

Long live the Soviets and their representatives!

Long live Bolshevism!

Information about the recognition of Kolchak by the Allies, as the only "worthy" man who can place Russia back on the "rails" (track), discloses the cards of the Allies, and leaves no doubts as to the true desires of the latter.

To smash the Russian revolution, to strangle a people that has just freed itself, and rivet it in new chains, there is the main purpose of the Allies. In order to accomplish this the sooner, they need their man. And such a man, in their opinion, is

Kolchak.

The servant of broken-up czarism, enemy to all freedom and enlightenment, hater of the broad popular masses, instilling submission with fire and sword into a suffering people, he, this monster and executioner, flooded Siberia with whole streams of people's blood and with the help of Allied bayonets defeated al human rights.

MAKE WAY

Grown arrogant by generations of domination of the life and industries of many countries, the capitalist class cannot under stand that anyone in his right mind would have the temerity t criticize, to say nothing of any group of workers combining t overthrow the present capitalistic system of industry. How any thing so rebellious could be even thought of is beyond thei capacity.

But that is just the very thing we do mean. We are building Dew society, a world without master or slave, and we cannot e such timber as the capitalist class is composed of. Moreover, we do not want any interference; the need is too urgent to allow the work to be hampered by those who do not understand. Not understanding the need of a new order of society, the capitalists are hampering and will continue to hamper all that we can do. As much time must be taken to checkmate the hampering work of the capitalists as we take to build the new order of things. W mean to overthrow the capitalist system of society and to

e the capitalist class. We don't need them and we don't Want them and we won't have them any longer than we are comto. Our word to them is: "Go, get out, begone, vacate, at, you devils!"

THE I. W. W. AND THE IRON HEEL

It is not strange that this, the hour of the I. W. W.'s greatest punity, should also be the hour of its most fearful peril. In ture of the titanic struggle of inimical social forces now wing America it could not be otherwise. The masters of rd, with unerring instinct, have sensed their one real, eating enemy. It is the I. W. W. Unless they can destroy their own destruction as a ruling class is certain. They feel They know it. And upon the utter extermination of the W. W. they are resolved. Against us they are prepared to use and every weapon and they have mighty and murderous ps in their arsenal. Repressive legislation, vengeful courts, ferocity, all these have been and will be invoked our organization. The armed mob, precise replica of the Black Hundreds, existing for no other apparent purpose the brutal terrorizing of all who dare express their aspirafr a new and better world, is already organized the country ~ari set about its sinister task..

As for the constitutional guarantees of free speech, press and age, it is mockery to speak of them any more. They are ed, as dead as Wesley Everest or Frank Little or Joe Hill -in de resurrected until the workers of America are free, and new guaranties for a Free Society.

OUR WORK

If we do that work as it should be done, we will give th Russian Soviet government much better support than by pub lishing laudatory articles on the achievements of the Bolsheviki For wherever we weaken the capitalist system we are givin support to the Soviets. More than that, we are helping to gai our own freedom instead of spending our time in useless wol ship at the shrine of what others have accomplished.

If we accomplish these things we will then have plenty of tim to devote to the giving of the Russian Soviets their just due i the world struggle for emancipation. If our object is to help th
