I 'BULWARK AGAINST HOLSHBVISM ; William Green, head of the American Federation of Fjiibor, addressing the labor convention at Los Angeles, made this notable declaration: "My friends, the American Federation of Labor will accept no dictation from Moscow; we will not compromise with communism or communistic philosophy. Wo will hot listen to the call of any siren; we will Hot experiment with the lives of working men and women in something which found birth in class hatred in a country ruled by dictators for centuries.". There is nothing new about this stand. It was taken by American organized labor during the war, and has been held consistently ever since. Tho reiteration, however, serves as a timely reminder to our conservative capitalists that Ameri can liiboi' itself is conservative. , H might bo added that the biggest bulwark against for eign; radicalism in this country has been organized labor rather than organized capital. It is the soldier of industry, morcj than the dollars of industry, that have prevented the invasion of America by liolshevi.sni. This is a fact to he remembered and appraised at its true A'aluc whenever some "radical" .labor speaker announces, as Joint I'. Frey, secretary of the metal trades department, did !at tlie Los Angeles convention: "Workers' wages must keep 'jpace, with their increasing powers of production." A good 'liiany employers, by the way, seem inclined latterly to regard that as not really radical at all, but a sound economic principle. A good many, too, arc coming to see that, despite differ ences of viewpoint and understanding, and serious clashes oc casionally, American capital and American labor stand I'unda menUilly together, against whatever red menace there may be hutching elsewhere in the world, upholding the good old American principle of individualism and freedom of npxr tuniby. To the typical employe as to the typical employer, the individual does not exist for the state the state exists for (lie individual. ;o Word of PLANE SINCE LAST NIGHT 'ofiitniifM, from Phba OnM shirt a InniH-AtlantU: Old ordianl, Mu.' flight from ' MAY HOI TOIAV OU OltCIIAltl), Me.
