The Red Conspiracy

This polemical work warns of a perceived radical threat and argues that socialist, Bolshevik, communist, and industrial-union movements seek to overthrow constitutional government and private industry. It presents exposition and many quotations from radical publications, offers critiques of revolutionary programs, and expresses sympathy for economic injustice while advocating lawful social reform. The author urges organized public education against radicalism, contrasts constitutional remedies with revolutionary action, and warns that violent or doctrinaire solutions would produce greater suffering than the social ills they claim to cure.
