EVENING TAR, WASHINGTO! TRAIL OF “REDS” IN AMERICA Recent Manifesto Shows Anarchists Are Not Entirely Dominant in U. S.—Activities Watched Carefully to Prevent Outbreak—Gary Is Hotbed. BY JACOB SPOLANSKY. 1 Chapter VIIL Shortly after the war, the ranks of the Communists were increased by sev- eral thousand who drifted Into Com- munism as the most effective means of attaining their own ends. These came from the anarchlst groups, which before the war numbered more than 40,000 active members, who were sworn, even If it should cost them thelr own lives, to rid the United States of its capitalistic rulers by assassination of those holding public office. During the war this organization grew In strength, and in 1918 an a ciation with the Communist party was effected, whercupon they called them- selves the Anarchist-Communist. They even became so powerful that they dared to act in the open, advocating at public meetings the principle of assassi- nation to rid the country of its “de pots.” They held weekly meetings, they issued a dally publication in New York, and they even printed numerous books explaining their doctrines. Raids on the Anarchists. The United States Government, at the same time the raids were being made on Communist and allled organizations, took the opportunity to rid the country of several of the anarchist leaders, with the result that in November, 1919, Gov ernment ralds netted 365 notorlous an- archists, who later were deported as undesirables. These ralds broke into their organization to such an extent that in order to keep it alive they asso- ciated themselves with the Communists permanently However, they are still actively engaged in spreading what propaganda they can. They dissemi- nate news of their activities among the “faithful” by means of an underground publication called the Wave, which gerves as the official publication of the ‘Anarchist-Communist group of the ‘nited States. Vet many years the anarchist head- quarters was in Chicago, and meot- {ngs were held regularly in a place which the anarchists succeeded In keeping secret for many months, but which finally was discovered to be at West Fourteenth street and Union avenue. Here there Is a saloon on the corner, with a flat above. Peace- ful enough In appearance, there was nothing In fts outward aspect to arouse suspicion, and at no time was any disturbance reported as happen- ing in the rooms above the saloon. Yet it was in those rooms that anarchists from all over the country were accustomed to meet and form clubrooms, with a plans for assassination. Emma Goldman, who, until her de- portation in 1920, was one of the principal leaders, attended meetings in this hall regularly. When finally the place was discovered, the govern- ment, alded by the polica, raided the rooms and confiscated hundreds of pleces of anarchist literature. It was found that the place had been re- modeled from an ordinary flat into eries of doors con- necting the whol a which occurred o) which caused the tion to break s organiza- its head- w York, Anarchist actlv the world are diry rmany by Rudolph Rocker, s that he has been an anarchist since h 1% years old.

In fact, a part of the vath which they take on entering the soclety provides that “should he fall to undertake any command or mis- slon delegated to him by the supreme committee the penalty shall be death. The one guilty of this offense shall have a choice of death by sulcide or death from the hand of a brother anarchist, who shall be delegated to inflict the penalty.” Utillzing the Strike. That the anarchists are not entirely dormant may be inferred from a manifesto recently issued through underground methods from New York, In which the tactics of the Anarchist- Communists are outlined. Facts brought out in this document ga to Prove that recent strikes in certain lines of industry were not brought about entirely by organized labor. The text is here printed for the first time: “As the labor organizations of the 1t are the gorms of future free associations, so the natural weapon of the laboring class, the strike, is the seed of our tacti “We see that the proletariat, along with the development of capltalism, more and more broaden and deepen thelr struggle; partial strikes lose their significance and mass strikes Into general ones.

We must convert small strikes into general ones and convert the latter into armed revolt of the laboring masses of the coun- try against capital and State. A Program of Destruction. “At the time of this revolt we must at the first favorable opportunity proceed to an immediate selzure of all means of production and all ar- ticles of consumption, and make the working class the masters in fact of all general wealth, At the same time wo must mercilessly dostroy all re- mains of governmental authority and class domination, liberate the pris- oners, demolish prisons and publio offices, destroy all field fences and boundaries and shoot the most prom- inent military and police officers. We must be merciless, for the slight- est weakness may afterward cause a whole sea of needless blood. Then we must try as soon as possible to extend the existing labor organiza- tions and give production over to them. Every city should begin the work separatoly and proclaim a com- mune; that is, the labor organizations will become masters of the city. “For us, the Anarcho-Communists, the economic struggle and the politi- cal strugglo do not in themselves nt two entirely separate prov- No. They flow one and "the all forms together for same struggle of oppression in against 24, 1924, against capital and agairst govern- ment “We may, therefore, formulate our tactles thus: By participation in the struggle of the working class, guld- ing it and uninterruptedly widening and deepening. the struggle, kindle and maintain the conflagration of clvil war until we have torn up by the roots capitalism and government “We hate religion because it lulls the spirit with lying tales, takes away courage and faith in the power of man, falth in the triumph of jus- tice here on the real carth and not in a chimerical heaven.
