THE LABOR VOTER

"Despite the yelling of the capitalists about
the prosperity which is making workers into
middle class voters, the Labor vote during
this prosperity has never been less than 43%.
These facts/ concludes Mr. Williams, 'reduce
the usual analysis to nonsense/ New houses
and washing machines do not make the Labor
voter a Conservative voter/ 7

WORKERS IN A REVOLUTION

"What happens in a revolution is that the
class for the first time finds itself free to
think its own thoughts and give some con-
crete form to its own experience accumulated
over the generations. Whenever a revolution-
ary class moves, it establishes a stage for the
intenational movement/ 7

THE AMERICAN WORKERS

"I have to show, and I will, that Marxism and
its expectation of the independent and crea-
tive action of the working class is not mere
wishing or speculation or psychology but a
scientific process. Without this scientific
process you either ignore the American work-
ers or indulge in wild and essentially subjec-
tive speculations/'

From Marxism and the Intellectuals
