A collage of political verse and notices. It cites Ley mocking communists, Empire Day versus workers, White Terror trials, Russia lies, counter-revolution lore, Clyde labor life under capitalism, wool prosperity with wage cuts, a domestic song, a factory termination notice, Russian trials, Italian police bombs, a cheeky Dear Dig poem, wage law debates, Esperanto vs Ido, and a staging protest over a play about exploitation.
