  • Industrial Pioneer
    INDUSTRIAL PIONEER Preamble of the Industrial Workers of the World The working class and the employing class have nothing in common. There can be no peace as long as Hunger and want are found among millions of the working people and the few who make up the employing class have all the good things of life. Between these two classes a struggle must go on until the workers of the world organize as a class, take posses sion of the earth and the machinery of production. an</ abolish the wage system. We find that the centering of the management of in dustries into fewer and fewer hands makes the trade unions unable to cope with the ever growing power of the employing class. The trade unions foster a state of affairs which allows one set of workers to be pitted against another set of workers in the same industry, thereby helping to defeat one another in wage wars. Moreover, the trade unions aid the employing class to mislead the workers into the belief that the working class has interests in common with their employers. These conditions can be changed and the interests of the working class upheld by an organization formed in such a way that all its members in any one industry, or in all industries, if necessary, cease work whenever a strike or lockout is on in any department thereof, thus making an injury to one an injury to all. Instead of the conservative motto, "A fair day's wage for a fair day's work," we must inscribe on our banner the revolutionary watchword, "Abolition of the wage sys tem." It is the historic mission of the working class to do away with capitalism.
