For decades, many of Eugene Debs’s admirers have claimed that the socialist leader was a good, patriotic American unsullied by a foreign doctrine like Marxism. As civil war hashtags are trending on social media and Trump is backed into a corner, desperate to find a distraction, let’s remember the wise words of legendary American socialist Eugene Victor Debs at. As a Socialist Party candidate, Debs ran for president five times in the early 1900s, twice gaining over 900,000 votes. This day in 1919, Socialist leader Eugene V Debs is sent to prison for violating the Espionage Act in his opposition to WWI. Debs came to the conclusion that no strike or labor movement could ultimately be successful as long as the government was controlled by the capitalist class.

Today his house in Terre Haute is a museum. The fairly large, Victorian-style home he shared with his wife was built in 1890 and has a long history — before it became a historic landmark, it housed a fraternity from 1948-1961 at Indiana State University. It was apparently a little bourgeois for someone who purported to speak on behalf of American workers. But as Deng said , poverty is not socialism. My mother and I were lucky to have a tour of the house. Others would join us later, but for half of the tour we were one-on-one with the guide who made Debs feel alive and relevant, mixing his story with spirited political conversation about capitalism, prisons and war. Debs has lost none of his vitality in a world rife with inequality, brutal prisons and imperialist wars. Debs hated prisons because they degraded humankind.
Особое внимание уделено сопротивлению общества участию государства в войне и действиям, направленным на слом этого сопротивления. Изучены судьбы американских социалистов и их лидера Юджина Дебса, который был арестован в 1918 г.
В статье проанализирован процесс принятия закона через несколько месяцев после вступления США в войну. Просматривается история обсуждения закона начиная с 1915 г. Данные законы накладывали определенные ограничения на свободу слова и впоследствии были многократно критикованы.
Not long after, Debs resigned his position as Secretary-Treasurer of the BLF despite the mass objection of the firemen rank and file. After years of first hand experience with the failures of the old craft unionism, Debs was now firmly convinced of the need for this new advanced form of union — the industrial union — where all workers in the industry would be organized as a whole, as opposed to separated — and hence ineffectual — under the old outmoded craft union structure. The American Railway Union generated wide interest and support among the rail workers of North America. Rails were signing up at the rate of 2,000 a week, and within six months the new organization had 150,000 members! ARU members from all crafts struck and the Great Northern was paralyzed. In less than three weeks time, the union had emerged victorious, winning nearly all of its demands. The power of industrial unionism had been demonstrated!
In this country—the most favored beneath the bending skies—we have vast areas of the richest and most fertile soil, material resources in inexhaustible abundance, the most marvelous productive machinery on earth, and millions of eager workers ready to apply their labor to that machinery to produce in abundance for every man, woman, and child—and if there are still vast numbers of our people who are the victims of poverty and whose lives are an unceasing struggle all the way from youth to old age, until at last death comes to their rescue and lulls these hapless victims to dreamless sleep, it is not the fault of the Almighty: it cannot be charged to nature, but it is due entirely to the outgrown social system in which we live that ought to be abolished not only in the interest of the toiling masses but in the higher interest of all humanity. I believe, as all Socialists do, that all things that are jointly needed and used ought to be jointly owned—that industry, the basis of our social life, instead of being the private property of a few and operated for their enrichment, ought to be the common property of all, democratically administered in the interest of all. This order of things cannot always endure.
I have registered my protest against it. I recognize the feebleness of my effort, but, fortunately, I am not alone. There are multiplied thousands of others who, like myself, have come to realize that before we may truly enjoy the blessings of civilized life, we must reorganize society upon a mutual and cooperative basis; and to this end we have organized a great economic and political movement that spreads over the face of all the earth.
There are today upwards of sixty millions of Socialists, loyal, devoted adherents to this cause, regardless of nationality, race, creed, color, or sex. They are all making common cause. They are spreading with tireless energy the propaganda of the new social order.
They are waiting, watching, and working hopefully through all the hours of the day and the night. They are still in a minority. But they have learned how to be patient and to bide their time.
The feel—they know, indeed—that the time is coming, in spite of all opposition, all persecution, when this emancipating gospel will spread among all the peoples, and when this minority will become the triumphant majority and, sweeping into power, inaugurate the greatest social and economic change in history. In that day we shall have the universal commonwealth—the harmonious cooperation of every nation with every other nation on earth. I realize that finally the right must prevail.
I never so clearly comprehended as now the great struggle between the powers of greed and exploitation on the one hand and upon the other the rising hosts of industrial freedom and social justice. I can see the dawn of the better day for humanity. The people are awakening.
In due time they will and must come to their own. When the mariner, sailing over tropic seas, looks for relief from his weary watch, he turns his eyes toward the southern cross, burning luridly above the tempest-vexed ocean. As the midnight approaches, the southern cross begins to bend, the whirling worlds change their places, and with starry finger-points the Almighty marks the passage of time upon the dial of the universe, and though no bell may beat the glad tidings, the lookout knows that the midnight is passing and that relief and rest are close at hand.
Let the people everywhere take heart of hope, for the cross is bending, the midnight is passing, and joy cometh with the morning. His citizenship was not restored until five decades after his 1926 death. The labor movement and socialist party he had struggled to build had been ruthlessly crushed, often through violent attacks orchestrated by the state and corporations and mass arrests and deportations carried out during the Palmer Raids in November 1919 and January 1920.
The government had shut down socialist publications, such as Appeal to Reason and The Masses. The breakdown of capitalism saw a short-lived revival of organized labor during the 1930s, often led by the Communist Party, and during a short period after World War II, and this resurgence triggered yet another prolonged assault by the capitalist class. We have returned to an oligarchic purgatory.
Wall Street and the global corporations, including the fossil fuel industry and the war industry, have iron control over the government.

Eugene Debs, the Espionage Act, and the Election of 1920
Пуллмен Страйк Удар Члены Американского национального объединения ARU противостоят войск национального гвардии Иллинойса в Чикаго во время Дебс восстание 1894 года В 1894 году Дебс участвовала в забастовке Пуллмана , которая возникла в результате спора о компенсации, начатого рабочими, строившими железнодорожные вагоны, изготовленные автомобилестроительной компанией PullmanPalace. Дебс пыталась убедить членов профсоюзов, которые работали на железных дорогах, в том, что бойкот слишком рискован; учитывая враждебность железных дорог и федерального правительства, слабость профсоюза и возможность того, что другиепрофсоюзы прекратят забастовку. Члены игнорировали предупреждения и отказывались обращаться с вагонами Pullman или любыми другими железнодорожными вагонами, прикрепленными к ним, включая автомобили с почтой США. Эллиотт расширил забастовку в Сент-Луис, увеличив ее размер вдвое до 80 000 рабочих, Дебс уступила и решила принять участие в забастовке, которую теперь поддержали почти все члены ARU в непосредственной близости от города. Забастовщики боролись, объявив бойкот вагонам поездов Pullman, и под руководством Дебс в конечном итоге забастовка стала известна как «Восстание Дебс». Президент Гровер Кливленд , которого Дебс поддерживала во всех трех его президентских кампаниях, послал армию Соединенных Штатов для исполнения судебного запрета. Присутствие армии было достаточно, чтобы сломить удар.
Всего в ходе забастовки было убито 30 забастовщиков, 13 из них в Чикаго, тысячи попали в черный список. Было повреждено имущество на сумму около 80 миллионов долларов. Дебс представлял Кларенс Дэрроу , позже ведущий Американский юрист и гражданский либертарианец, ранее работавший ным юристом в железнодорожной компании. Хотя обычно считается, что Дэрроу «перешел на другую сторону», чтобы представить Дебс, миф, повторенный биографией Ирвинга Стоуна «Кларенс Дэрроу в защиту», на самом деле он ушел с железной дороги ранее, после смерти своего наставника Уильяма Гауди. В постановлении по делу Верховного суда , In re Debs позднее было подтверждено право федерального правительства издать судебный запрет.

Отбыв шестимесячный срок в тюрьме в Вудстоке, штат Иллинойс , Дебс и его товарищи из ARU постоянный поток писем, книг иброшюр по почте от социалистов со всей страны. Дебс вспоминал несколько лет спустя: Я начал читать, думать и анализировать анатомические системы, в которой рабочие, какими бы организованными они ни были, могли быть разбиты, разбиты и расколоты одним ударом. Мне рано понравились труды Беллами и Блатчфорда.

Прибыв на вокзал, он отказался от роскошного пульмановского вагона, заняв вместо этого более скромное место. Разницу в стоимости проезда он пожертвовал в фонд помощи голодающим в Советской России.

Eugene V. Debs Biography, Life, Interesting Facts
In 1874 he resigned from his past job where he went ahead to work at a grocery shop. He was a regular attendee where he was chosen to represent the Terre Haute lodge. For this reason, Debs became a great figure both in the community and several movements. Early in 1894, Eugene joined Pullman Strike where he was dissatisfied with several workers who manufactured train cars. The Pullman Palace Car Company made the autos. The employees joined up with him where they participated in a strike.
As a result, hundreds of strikers were killed, and millions of properties were destroyed. Overall, Eugene was arrested for his involvement where he was sent to prison. While serving his jail term, Debs came to love socialist ideologies. Before his release, he read countable books and letters from the socialism field.
Марк зачитал эту речь в рамках проекта «Голоса народной истории Соединённых Штатов» в церкви Всех Святых в Пасадене, Калифорния, 1 февраля 2007 года.
The ARU crumbled soon after, and while many Pullman workers were eventually rehired, they had to agree in writing to never form a union. In 1897 , two years after leaving prison, he established the Social Democratic Party of America. William McKinley won the race with a total of 7,207,923 votes, while Debs garnered just 86,935.
Still, it was a start. Debs ran again in 1904, this time as a member of the next political party he helped establish: the Socialist Party of America. His totals jumped to around 402,000 votes ; in 1908, he returned with 420,000 votes , losing to Theodore Roosevelt and William Howard Taft , respectively. Debs fell short once again, but his total ballooned to more than 900,000 votes —6 percent of the popular vote. It would be another eight years before his fifth and final presidential campaign—arguably one of the strangest the country has seen. The profit system is responsible for it all. Debs traveled across the Northeast to speak to his base of frustrated workers looking for a unifying voice against war.
Following the Second American Revolution , Debs made peace with the Central Powers in 1918 calling back all troops that went to Europe and ceded territory to Mexico in the Treaty of Phoenix. Fighting ended in 1921, but before then Debs had already created a new Congress. Debs spent the last five years of his life turning the USSA into the Communist country he had worked for.
Дебс, Юджин
On June 16 1918 , after nearly a half century of union and political organizing — now in his 60s -- Debs gave a speech in Canton, Ohio in opposition to World War I. He was arrested under the Espionage Act of 1917. He was convicted, sentenced to serve ten years in prison and disenfranchised for life. Once again, the Supreme Court upheld his conviction. He was pardoned and released on Christmas Day, 1921 by President Harding at age 65. While his health was broken, his spirit and optimism remained indomitable. He remained an outspoken advocate for the cause of labor and the working class.

Какое ложное притворство! На протяжении всей истории войны велись ради завоеваний и грабежей. В средние века, когда феодалы решали расширить свои владения, увеличить свою власть, свой престиж и свое богатство, они объявляли войну друг другу. Но сами они принимали участие в войнах не больше, чем современные феодалы, бароны Уолл-Стрит. Все войны объявляли феодальные бароны средневековья, экономические предшественники капиталистов наших дней. И во всех битвах сражались их несчастные крепостные. Бедных, невежественных крепостных приучили уважать своих хозяев; верить, что, когда их хозяева объявляют друг другу войну, патриотический долг крепостных — кинуться друг на друга и перерезать друг другу глотки ради выгоды и славы лордов и баронов, презирающих их. Это и есть суть войны. Войну всегда объявляют правящие классы.
