Without organization of the masses,

12
00:01:06,917 --> 00:01:09,511

I'm not guilty

72
00:21:23,757 --> 00:21:26,555
but I can't prove it.

73
00:21:26,757 --> 00:21:30,511
I cannot leave the factory with the stigma of a thief.

74
00:21:30,717 --> 00:21:33,595
So I have decided
to put an end to myself.

75

Goodbye

76
00:21:35,917 --> 00:21:39,512

"A 6 hour work day for minors."

115

"They're demanding

116
00:39:05,437 --> 00:39:10,431
a 30% wage increase."

117
00:39:14,877 --> 00:39:17,516
"It's shocking.

118
00:39:17,717 --> 00:39:21,676
They've brought
the factory into politics."

119
00:39:31,037 --> 00:39:33,187
"This is impudence."

120
00:39:55,197 --> 00:39:58,155

"Clean it up."

129
00:44:02,317 --> 00:44:05,309
A nice reply.

130
00:44:08,197 --> 00:44:12,031

1) The eight hour work day

147

SMASH IT!

191
01:09:59,357 --> 01:10:03,191
The "King's" boys go into action.

192
01:10:40,837 --> 01:10:42,748
"It's provocation.

193
01:10:42,957 --> 01:10:45,107
Call out the firemen.

194
01:10:51,757 --> 01:10:55,033
Press the button.
Wait for the firemen.

195
01:10:55,237 --> 01:10:59,753
Stop gossiping and guard the fire
alarm or they will foil the plan.

196
01:11:31,797 --> 01:11:34,834
"Comrades, follow me!"

197
01:11:45,517 --> 01:11:48,714
"They want to buy us
with vodka!-

198
01:11:48,917 --> 01:11:53,513
Don't be provoked!"

199
01:12:09,957 --> 01:12:13,233
"Provocateurs are here

200
01:12:13,437 --> 01:12:16,873
working with the police."

201
01:12:17,077 --> 01:12:20,467
"Everybody go home,
Comrades!"

202
01:12:50,517 --> 01:12:52,314
It's been foiled...

203
01:13:11,757 --> 01:13:12,633
"Follow me!"

204
01:13:50,837 --> 01:13:52,555
"Fools!"

205
01:14:24,077 --> 01:14:25,351
A dead end.

206
01:14:43,437 --> 01:14:46,076
Struggling for a way out.

207
01:14:58,357 --> 01:15:00,154
They have broken through.

208
01:15:30,717 --> 01:15:32,070
"He got away."

209
01:15:56,291 --> 01:15:58,851
"Flush out" the ringleaders!

210
01:16:12,851 --> 01:16:15,365
"You scum! Your own people..."

211
01:16:53,491 --> 01:16:55,049
They've caught him.

212
01:17:20,291 --> 01:17:24,125
End of the fifth part

213
01:17:24,371 --> 01:17:28,808
PART SIX :
LIQUIDATION

214
01:17:35,371 --> 01:17:38,010
In the factory district

215
01:17:38,211 --> 01:17:39,883
a State Liquor Store was smashed,
looted and burned by the strikers.

216
01:17:40,091 --> 01:17:43,242
The crowd was dispersed

217
01:17:43,451 --> 01:17:47,239
with water hoses.

218
01:17:47,451 --> 01:17:50,682
The situation is tense.

219
01:17:50,891 --> 01:17:54,770
There is fear of further unrest.

220
01:17:54,971 --> 01:17:58,850
Troops have been sent to the
district by order of the Governor.

221
01:18:14,051 --> 01:18:16,246
The First Strike

222
01:18:27,011 --> 01:18:29,571
"DIS-PER-SE!"

223
01:19:13,651 --> 01:19:17,485
"Comrades, help!"

224
01:20:11,771 --> 01:20:13,568
"To the forge, comrades

225
01:20:13,771 --> 01:20:16,001
to the sledge hammers.

226
01:21:19,291 --> 01:21:21,486
"Go to your apartments."

227
01:22:28,531 --> 01:22:30,283
They have broken in.

228
01:24:13,491 --> 01:24:14,844
Wild animals.

229
01:24:43,131 --> 01:24:45,520
"You can't put them all in prison.

230
01:24:45,731 --> 01:24:48,245
Our boys will hold out."

231
01:24:57,931 --> 01:24:59,046
"The boys..."

232
01:25:14,091 --> 01:25:16,082
"Your little district..."

233
01:25:17,771 --> 01:25:18,681
"...is already..."

234
01:25:33,691 --> 01:25:35,921
"But you, young man,

235
01:25:36,131 --> 01:25:38,725
could maybe
join us...

236
01:25:38,931 --> 01:25:41,650
we could help you.
What do you say?"

237
01:26:09,571 --> 01:26:10,606
"Back to my cell!"

238
01:26:17,211 --> 01:26:18,564
The carnage.

239
01:27:01,451 --> 01:27:02,804
The defeat.

240
01:27:39,131 --> 01:27:43,682
And like bloody unforgettable scar

241
01:27:43,891 --> 01:27:47,008
on the body of the proletariat...

242
01:27:58,131 --> 01:27:59,120
REMEMBER!

243
01:27:59,371 --> 01:28:00,360
PROLETARIANS!!
