Radicalism la Europe la rampanL The workers ara active, the middle ' Industrie! class sympathetic.1 Th canters ara hotbeds. The conservatism of farmers and peasants Is break lag down. It Is hard to deflno this radicalism K la without form. 'It Isnt a definite program. It Isnt even political. The people ere dissatisfied- The red flag la popular. It promises . a abort cut It answers the cry of the Impatient I was surprised to see many of tho very men who fought to gallantly under their country's flag and who bat yesterday would have torn the red flag from the flagpole, now defending It carrying It and following It I am sure they do not know whet the red flag stands for. To them Represents a protest against things as they are. Snmmed np in n word, the attitude of mind of tho workers of Enropo Is eagerness 'for n change some change any change. Every one knows the symptoms, understands whet Is wrong, but the remedy Is only vaguely discussed. ' 1 attach much significance to 'the mw attitude 'of. organised labor In ' Europe. Labor unions 'formerly eon caned themselves with wages, terms ef employment shop conditions, safety : appliances, recognition of their right ' of collective bargaining. Since the JL war the labor movement has taken np fueetlons entirely ontstde of Its field, guest! one properly the concern of nil the people, questions of government policy. I have In mind recent demands made by the working men In England, France and .Italy. These demands were addressed to the regularly and properly elected ' representatives of the people, the governments. They were accompanied by threats of general strikes If they were not acceded to. This step Is an. Innovation ; It Is revolutionary. The working men ere citizens end have a voice In the government equal .with all other citizens. After the peo-- , pie have selected their representatives, the men chosen should be responsible to all of the people without regard to class or station. A government by one portion of the people Is autocratic. Government of the people, for the people, end by the people, means ell of the people. The effort on the part of a minority In the labor movement, call themselves sowho challenging cialists, to dictate to the state, representing all of the people, Is an attack upon democracy. If successful .It would destroy the state and leave the groat majority of the people. Including te - i r 1,1 ", j . " t 1 - get py voting, except th "Worst of It? The word vote comes from n Latin word, meaning to wish. Who ever got minority government? anything by wishing? We are Rke the story In Bellamys Demand Hard te Understand. Ton remember I witnessed many demonstrations In looking Backward. Europe under the rod flag, In which he spoke of a coach. On top of thle the leaders demanded three things coach the capitalists sit In the sun" shine enjoying the ride. On the side from the government release demanded of the . of the coach, hanging by their fingerFirst they ell the men In jell who were held for nails and toenails ere the hundreds of political crimes. These included men thousands who make np the middle found guilty of sedition and treason class. Millions of men are polling the during the war. I cannot understand coach.
