Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Deportation, Its Meaning and Menace: Last Message to the People of America
I think it is the best introduction to this pamphlet to say that before its writing was finished the rulers of America began deport ing men directly and obviously for the offense of striking against the industrial owners of America.
The Red Ark is gone. In the darkness of early morning it slipped away, leaving behind many wives and children destitute of support. They were denied even the knowledge of the sailing of the ship, denied the right of farewell to the husbands and fathers they may never see again. After the boat was gone, women and children came to the dock to visit the prisoners, bringing such little comforts as are known to the working class, seedy overcoats for the Russian winter, cheap gloves and odds and ends of food. They were told that the ship was gone. The refined cruelty of the thing was too much for them; they stormed the ferry-house, broke a window, screamed and cried, and were driven away by soldiers.
