of wbfkmen are to‘come together and

A blanket’ work laW. as strong as a
war conscription law should be passed.
An order to “go to work” Issued, and
an army with a firing squad ready
when needed. Every foreign-born
scoundrel who leads strikes at this all
crucial moment should be led out and
shot at once. The great general pub
lic will be strictly behind the govern
ment. A majority of these leaders
are only revolutionists anyway, and
the way to stop a revolution is to kill
it when it first starts to revolute.
This flame will not do to flirt with.
Better turn the government hose on
now. Men with brains in Washington
should call a conference of them
selves hnd act for the general public.
And do it at, once.
More reduction is necessary. Any
man who does less than his best is an
enemy. The government should put
workmen who won’t work to work.
The power is in Washington, backed
by the army, and it should be used to
the end that no section or city should
starve or freeze because of the dis
position to block the arteries of trade
and commerce by any class. —Emmett
