Bolshevism Rule of Ruin,
Slavery, SaysGompers
Workers Disfranchised, Funds Seized; Not
Necessary to Wait Longer to Form Opin
ion, Writes A. F.of L. Chief
(CONTINUED TOMORROW)
Copyrioht, 1020. Iu IVhccltr Syndicate
Washlngioii, Jan. -SO.-WrUhnt -in
the current number of the Federation
1st, official organ of the American Fed
eration of Labor, Samuel Gornpers con
demns bolshevism "completely, finally
nnd for "all time."
The American labor leader says he
doubts whether the propaganda which
emanates from the Bolshevist organiza
tion itself is more effective, than that
"conducted by thosq who claim to be
uitirely detached from Russian influ
ence and Russian paj rolls.". He sajs
ho doubts whether publications issued
by Russian Bolshevist ngents have as
great an effect in America as those
"which like to be known us 'journals
of opinion,' such as tho Nation, tho
Dial and the New Republic."
Mr. Gompcrs makes an extended ref
erence to the argument that the Ameri
can people know little about what is
going ou iu Russia, aud the argument
that it is unfair and, unwise to pass
judgnnnt. - -
"It was" uot ncce'Ssary," says Mr.
Gompers, "for Americans to know at
all times just what were the 'exact
conditions in Germany before passing
judgmeut on tie form of. government
existing in Germany. It was neces
sary only to know what was the form
of government and under what rules it
operated. We do not have to wait for
information- about the form of govern
ment existing iu what is called soilct
Russia.

J'A1I the information necessary 16 the
passing of judgment on bolshevism and
tho sj stem of government and as u state
of society Is at hand from sources
that nro authentic. Tho plea of those
misguldedlicrsons in America who Fay
'wait for the facts before passing judg
ment' is nothing more than an excuse
whiclf it is hoped will gain time for tho
Ru9siau experiment and enable it to
spread to other countries."
Quoting from the new Bolshevist con
stitution, Mr. Gomncrs points out that
while the fifth pan-Russian congress
declares for n dictatorship of the pro
letariat nnd tho poorest peasantry, "a
great portion of tho peasantry is dis
franchised and tbe largest Bolshevist
estimate of the proletariat calculates
them as only ouq-fifth of the number of
peasants.
Quoting from Bolshevist official doc
uments to hhow the extent of massed
.terror by the Bolshevists, Mr. Gom
pers declares that "the economic con
dition in internal -Russia at the present
time has absolutely nothjng to do with
tho merits or demerits of the Bolshe
vist philosophy of government," and
adds .that it .should Jiavc no influence
in determining the judgment of any
person upon it as such." ,
Ho quotes as the most direct infor
mation a dispatch from Russian trade
unionists to W." A. "Applcton, presi
dent of the International Federation of
Trades Unions, which declares that
Bolshevists have rplit up tbe reserve
fuuds of trades unions, throttled the
labor press, killed labor organizations,
split up trades unions as a class nnd
put down strikes by "force of arms and
plentiful executions."
"In all concepts of freedom within
the American nation," says Mr. Gom
pers, "one fundamental principle is that
any Involuntary servitude, that is, com
pulsory labor, shall not be enforced
upon .the working people." He quotes
the amendment to the federal constitu
tion and adds:
"That conception and tho spirit of
that amendment have been entirely re
versed by the constitution of Bolshevist
Russia which provides for nnd enforces
compulsory labor Tho
nlea to withhold iudement is a" last des
perate attcmnt to win favor from the
American pcopia tor n system m govern-.
meat wincu by mo contcssion oi its own
advocates and defenders is foreign to
every concept of tho American republic.
We know about Russia. We know about
bolshevism. Wo know tho piteous story
oi itiieity nnd intoiernuce and we know
tho autocratic concept that underlies
tho minority dictatorship which Is hailed
to tho world by its dupes and advocates
as the most perfect stato of sookty yet
devised, Wo know about it and we con
demn it completely, finally, and for all
time."
