December 14, 1918 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents suggestions for preventing any communist revolution in the U.S. The first suggestion is to prevent any hindrance to liberty of expression, organization, and communication. Second suggestion is to let all adults be familiar with information and ideas contrary to those they generally accepts. Let them practice open-minded thinking and acquire habits of conference and discussion across the social dead line. Economic exploitation spells revolution. Therefore, get rid of it as soon as possible. Improve the economic and educational system. Class feeling is a prerequisite for revolution. Therefore, give workmen full rights socially, industrially, and politically.
