Unite! States. No denial was made of \
charges that certain of its agents had I
been instructed to restrain special ac?
tivity against the Bolsheviki and their
ilk a month ago, but emphasis was
placed on present activities.
Secretary Explains Stand
Secretary Wilson's statement was
made in a letter to James Wilson, presi?
dent of the International Association
of Pattern Makers, in which he tool
the ground that whatever sympathy
American workers may have had with
Bolshevism was based on the mistaken
idea that it is democratic. This let?
ter said, in part:
"At the dinner of employes of the
Brooklyn Navy Yard given under the
auspices of the metal trades depart
ment of the American Federation of
Labor, April 30, I made the .?tatemen:
that 1 had no fear of Bolshevism, so
called, securing a foothold among the
workers of the United Stares; that
Bolshevism, as understood in Russia,
meant the dictatorship of the in?
dividual, or. at most, the few.
"You have asked me for the source
of the information that I based my
statement upon. I am sending
herewith some excerpts from a speech
made by Nikolai L?nine, Prem
the Russian Soviet Republic, in out?
lining the objects of the Bolsheviki to
the National Soviet, Moscow, April,
1918, as published by the. Rand School
of Social Science for purposes of
propaganda in this country, which fully
sustain the statements I made.
"The average American mind in in?
terpreting the term "dictatorship of
the proletariat' lias understood it to
mean the will of a majority of the
workers imposed upon all the other
members of society.
"But clearly this is not the principle
being pursued by the Russian Bolshe?
viki. They fear the will of the ma?
jority just as much as Kaiser Wilhelm,
Emperor Charles or Czar Nicholas did,
and boldly declare the dictaotrship of
the advanced class awakening to a new
democracy, and this group is to be the
sole judge of how the people shall live
what they shall do and how they shall
do it. It sets up the dictatorship on
exactly the same plea that every auto?
crat has used, that he knows better
what is good for the people and how
they should be treated than thej
themselves. 'This subjection may re?
semble the mild leading of an orchestra
conductor' if the proletariat is sub
missive, good natured and obedient, but
'it may take the acute form of a dicta
torship' enforced with 'a merciless am
tirm rule' and 'iron discipline againsl
those who violate this control or whe
are careless with resrard to control.'
"I am sure that no sane Americar
whose mind has not been perverted b;
self-interest would for a moment thinl
of displacing the orderly processes of
progress of, for and by the
which our institutions provide, for this
.'?.eme of autocracy, based on the
? ion of superior knov 1< [ge of
the needs and wants of etariat,
and which takes no cognizance of the
possibility of the dictators with a dif?
ferent viewpoint."

to incite audiences to revolution. It is |
contended by the society that the abuse
of free speech emboldens the Bolshe
viki to greater orfenees against the
government.
In its letter of protest, signed by
Richard M. Hurd. the society cites a re?
lent speech delivered by Scott Nearlng.
Mr. Hurd concludes his letter by de

Every effort will be made to instil

Big Textile Strike
C a 11 eel for June
If Demands Fail
'Conservative*1 Councils. Feel
That Time Has Conie to
i Settle Wage Question;
Larger Mills Affected
NEW BEDFORD, Mass., May 3.
Possibility of a wide strike which will
tie up the biggest textile mills of New
England V.-Q3 foreshadowed this after?
noon, when the textile councils of New
Bedford and Fall River, representing
80,000 operatives, voted to cull a com?
plete strike if new wage demands are
not met before June 2. As these coun?
cils are representatives of the so-called
"conservative" labor interests of the
industry, it is probable that their ac?
tion will be followed by councils of
other cities, and that the strike, if
called, will affect all cotton mill op?
eratives except the 20.000 foreign op?
eratives of Lawrence, who already are
on strike.
The wage demand as announced to
night is a straight 15 per cent raise,
which is 3 per cent greater than the
"fifty-four-fifty-four" schedule which
was proposed last winter. At that time .
working hours in practically all New
England cotton mills were reduced
from fifty-four to forty-eight a week.
with a corresponding reduction in
wages. With the present resumption
of good times in the mills labor leaders
declared that the time for a T.-age set?
tlement has come.
