First Edition. 12mo 7 1/4 x 5 inches; 183 x 126 mm 40 pages in stapled wrappers. <br /> <br />A spirited -- rollicking even! -- essay with attacks on "fakers" "impostors" "swindlers" and other enemies of the working class. <br /> <br />May Day is the true holiday of the proletariat the author says while Labor Day in the U.S. is fake because it "sticks to the hollow pretense of a brotherhood between capital and labor." <br /> <br />Issued by the radical Socialist Labor Party the pamphlet argues that American labor leaders have eagerly embraced the capitalist class. "The 'labor' leaders travel through the country in the grandest style stop at the 'swellest' hotels--often as not manned with non-union labor. Where they go liquor flows expensively and plentifully--sometimes swinishly." page 30 <br /> <br />The author Olive M. Johnson 1872-1954 was a longtime activist editor and pamphleteer for the Socialist Labor Party. <br /> <br />This pamphlet is peak agit-prop.
