have failed to notice that the Socialists have been carrying on an
active campaign of lies and deceptions in the form of letters which they
have sent to the editors of the daily papers, with the request that the
same be published for the enlightenment of the public regarding the
general excellency of the Socialist movement.

In "The Call," New York, March 23, 1913, it is said that "the man or
woman who can convey the message of Socialism through speaking is
fortunate, and when it can be done through speaking and writing, the
Comrade is doubly lucky. But Ryan Walker can do it through speaking and

manner the evils and abuses of our day, they may persuade the unwary
that Socialism would mean the absence of sufferings and wrongs of every

We elsewhere have called attention to I. W. W. effort to organize the
negroes of America. The work of making rebels of the negroes is also
carried on assiduously by the Socialist Party of America. Says "The
National Civic Federation Review," July 30, 1919:

"Among the propaganda material found on sale by agents of the Lusk
Committee in the Rand School book store were copies of 'The
Messenger,' on the front page of which it is called, 'The Only
Radical Negro Magazine in America,' of which Chandler Owen and A.
Philip Randolph are editors....

"Both of the editors of this magazine, who are negroes, are
