An injury to one is the concern of all. * • * * Murder in any form is abhorreait, but more so when committed in the name of the law. * * * The pages of history are replete with the bloody deeds of tyrants endeavouring to prevent the growth of liberty. fir it w "Peace at any price" unionism means spineless wage-slaves. * * • Mr. Workingman, where are you after'a life of toil? Got an automobile eh? * « • The best feature of Socialism is that it would "bust up" the existing home of the wage slave asitf replace it with a home worthy of the name. * # * Self-appointed censors are a frightful nuisance. * » * The most essential qualification under capitalism is smsM brauss and large hands. a a a The N.Z.F.L. declares that industrial peace is possible only when the workers collectively own the means of wealth production. The slanderers of the dead are the oppressors of the living.—Debs. * . * * . A worker who supports the employing class by voting for its representatives is scabbing on his class. * * * The worker is to the capitalist what the mutton chop is to the gour-mant. * * * The "brotherhood of capital and labor" always ends in one brother reducing the other to the verge of want. * * * No orator, however great, no writer, be he the most wonderful genius, caii better the lot of the people.

Our civilisation is the outcome of centuries of oppression—of the law of tooth and claw.

Man has conquered Nature; there but. remains the mastery of parasites over their victims to be overthrown, to give absolute liberty.

Experience is the great teacher who points the way to working-class freedom.

If Arbitration is a good thing for the workers, why this frenzied cry by tho day lie press for its perseverance? * * *

Industrial slavery exists because the workers still permit their enemies to retain economic and political power. The title "labor leader" is only another name for arbitration crawler.

About the only ''leading" the average N.Z. union official has been guilty of has been the leading of lamb-like unionists into the den of a biassed Arbitration Court judge.

The only leadership necessary among the workers is the leading which cocoes from the pages of working-class history and economics.

Rational unionism from a capitalistic aaid newspaper point of view is a unionism which spells working-class defeat. -» * *

The only person entitled to wealth is the person whose labor ha# created it.
