HOW LONG?
How long, 0 brothers of the workingclass, how long can you be seduced to slay yourselves?
Leading citizens will bring about and brag about the warr.
But you, my brothers, will fight the wars .
Grim Disease waits ready to give you her slimp embrace. The cool steel machines are ready ready for heated men.
Keep cool. Beware of the "war fever." Notice carefully: Your wealtbv employers aro not enlisting for the line. They are immune from the fool's fever.
AVait a little longer before yon enlist. Think it over—till week after next.
You are safe (just think of- it)—ahsolutely safe from death in the next war —if you can keep off the firing lino- till the "prominent gentlefhen* 1 of your community have been on the firing-line for 30 da vs.
Once again, brother, admit this thought to your brain: The workingclass must be the protectors of tlicir own class —always.
