THE TOILER
PAGE 13
Don't Forget!
It has been nearly two years since the world
was made safe for democracy, but more than two
thousand men and women still suffer in American
jails and penitentiaries for the cause of labor.
Don't forget them!
When you sit down to a good Sunday meal,
don't forget the boys who subsist on the vile
prison stews.
When you go to sleep in a soft bed, don't for
get the hard iron cots in the jails and those who
lie on them for you.
When you walk in freedom through the parks
don't forget the freedom lovers whose range is
the prison corridor and cell.
When you are tempted to give up the fight,
remember they were not afraid.
They are in there for us.
Are we out here for them?
The Government
The United States Government does not send
troops against Russia.
But it furnished the funds to equip the arm
ies of Kolchak, Denikin, Yudenitch and Poland,
who did make war on Russia. ,
The United States does not send troops
against Russia.
But it refused to trade with Russia, thus
starving men, . . -nen and children.
The United States government does not send
troops against Russia.
But it lets no medicines reach Russia, so that
epidemics killed off the people.
The United States government does not send
troops against Russia.
But it spread lies about the Soviet Govern
rnent, in that way making American workers be
lieve that "democratic" government like in the
United States, is the only 100 true and perfect
kind.

RESPONDING to the recent letter of G. Zi
noviev, chairman of the executive committee of
the Third International, calling upon the Balkan
proletariat to rally around the international com
munist organization, the congress of the com
munist party of Jugo-Slavia, by a large majority,
declared itself for the overthrow of the capitalist
system through the arming and dictatorship of
the proletariat. Four hundred delegates, repre
senting 80,000 members attended the congress.
NICOLAI LENIN
by Zinovieff
His co-worker and life long comrade.
President of the Third International.
LENIN DID NOT DROP FROM THE
SKY in the hour of Russia's crisis and
assume the terrific responsibilities of the
leadership of the revolution. On the con
trary, he was a recognized reality for
many years in European revolutionary
circles.
And he was most frequently in a minor
ity. Not until all other leadership had
failed was he called upon to take his place
at the helm of Russia's destiny and the
leadership of the proletarian world revolu
tion. His friend and comrade, Zinovieff, tells
in this pamphlet of his life previous to
election as Premier of the Russian Soviet
Republic. It is a 48 page pamphlet of
consuming interest and inspiration. Every
Communist, Socialist and Radical will find
it a valuable addition to his library.
Wo ask yon to help in its wide distribu
tion. W 25c
Ready for deliver)' Oct. 1st Advance
