Communists Not Seeking Violence Says Rose Stokes
Rose Pastor Stokes addressed the Metal Trades Hall branch of the Worker's party arguing the defunct Communist party did not advocate violence. She said history is written by those in power and that civil strife would occur only as a result of capitalist states remaining intact while workers gain control of industry. The speech touched on the Michigan trial and the St Joseph convention, noting the jury was warned to judge the Communist aim, not mere rhetoric, and that the labor movement stands to gain strength in coming years. Police attended but the meeting remained orderly.
