Transcript | the fabrications of other United States Government officials only prove that even the Government of the United States is not above using the machinery of morale in the class war, as well as in the war with Germany. There has been much surprise in some quarters that the Allied governments have not declared war on Soviet Russia. To the Socialist there is no surprise in this, but merely additional evidence to support his analysis of society. The Allies have, as a matter of fact, not been at war with Russia as a whole. They have been on the most friendly terms with the property-owning and business classes in Soviet Russia. The Allies have been at war only with the revolutionary working class and poorer peasantry of Russia. It has always been the policy of the ruling class—for it has been to its interest—never to admit the fact of a struggle between it and a subject class. But the very refusal of the Allied governments to declare war upon Russia has been tantamount to an admission—even a declaration and demonstration—of the actuality and reality of war between the classes. 53 |
