Americanize Our Alien Workers

~~ L It is antagonistic to the ideals of honest labor*
Bolshevism offers no possibility of advance for labor. It is an imported theory fomented by foreigners, which is impracticable and incompetent. Men
that, never knew how to get money will never know liow to keep it.
Bolshevism, though doomed to extinction, may not die before several nations of the earth have had a big dose of it. Russian industry is turning somer
saults and breaking its neck by turning the factories over to workmen without any directing boss or head. The equable distribution is of little value if
little is produced.

In Russia, Bolshevism must be left to burn itself out. In America, it must he fought with the ancient weapons of a free people-the applied principles
oi law and order under a government of the people by the people. Abraham Lincoln was wiser than any Bolshevik.
Mr. Samuel Gompers believes that the toilers will see ultimately that there is nothing in the faise doctrines of Bolshevism.
Jhe war lias revealed that everything depends on the l#yal and continuous support of labor. Employer and employee came together on one plane of
common interest and common effort. The good spirit then developed should never be lost.
Democracy does not always get the best, hut it always gets what it wants. It reserves for people the right to make their own mistakes. We do not
believe in the class idea, hut that one man is as good as another.
The American laborer does not hate men at the head of industries because they are millionaires. He may be a millionaire himself some
day. Most men of success have labored with their hands and have begun small and raised themselves above the other fellow.
