It is being enforced, though -It is hated by about 50 per cent of the I. W. W. membership, rep resenting the roughneck element. Pacifism, or passivism— non-resist ance— Is the new idea. These terma have been abolished and forbidden In all I.W.W. propaganda, sabotage, di rect action, and revolution. They merely ampuuted the R. Evolution is now their word. It means the same thing, but suggests different methods. The policy of folded arms, or slowing down, is substituted for sabotage. Peaceful means will be ad vocated, no violence, in all things. There will be no insulting talk against the Flag and Americanism. All ex treme radical literature has been or- , de red burned. Peaceful Penetration ------- Now the Scientific Aim Solidarity o f the working class through peaceful penetration, and fi nally the soviet, or communism, through the organization o f industry, is the I.W.W. aim. p fen tral Interna tional headquarters remain in Chi cago, where all local charter» »re Is sued. Every city has Its indeperdent local. Ten picked young men are now be ing educated in economics in the Uni versity of Chicago, and every State university has from one to six stu dents. whose expenses are paid by the I W.W. These men compose the seed of the revolutionary leadership for the Great Change which all Com munists fondly hope for and confi dently expect. Radical education now Is promoted largely by the printed word. Thè police in the various^ cities are the best r.W.W. organizers. Brutality breeds resentment. Every time the police abuse a man, he Is likely to be an ex-serylce man returned from over seas and easily radicalized. More than 10,000 ex-service men from over-' *es are now carrying red cards In the Northwest. The number ia ton etantly increasing.

Slusher o f Clatsop County, who visited Portland Monday and was given a rousing welcome by many friends, declared to the scribes, in reply to questions, that he was doing his level best to exterminate the bootleggers in his neck o f ’ the woods, hut that the more he caught, the more there seemed to be. He already ha*----- — won a State-wide reputation for daring and success in pursuit o f moonshiners and other crooks, his friend declare, and is proving himself a big man in every w*y. ‘‘T h e ‘ complete stamping out o f the moonshining evil in a forest section,” said the noted‘ sheriff, “ requires thorough co-operation between the sheriff, the police, the federal officers and the courts, backed up in their efforts by an aroused moral sentiment— a general public attitude t»f hostility to lawbreakers. We are making headway in Clatsop County, but the situation requires constant vigilance.” Sheriff Slusher, wno was substituted for Ole Nelson by common consent in a recall election last August, restored the entire cost o f the special election.
