Haywood dreams of utopia with no government
Washington May 12 A revolutionary vision was described to the federal Industrial Relations commission by W W Haywood. He spoke of a class struggle ending in common ownership of land and means of production. He predicted the abolition of government and big cities with labor controlling all production. He dismissed revolution, favoring any tactics to achieve a stateless society. Haywood elaborated that future cities would vanish and New York could be torn down or left as a monument to folly. He will continue testimony tomorrow.
