WALL STREET
AND THE
BOLSHEVIK
REVOLUTION
TROTSKY LEAVES NEW YORK TO COMPLETE THE REVOLUTION
You will have a revolution, a terrible revolution. What course it takes will
depend much on what Mr. Rockefeller tells Mr. Hague to do. Mr. Rockefeller
is a symbol of the American ruling class and Mr. Hague is a symbol of its
political tools.
Leon Trotsky, in
New York Times,
December 13, 1938. (Hague was a New
Jersey politician)
In 1916, the year preceding the Russian Revolution, internationalist Leon Trotsky was expelled
from France, officially because of his participation in the Zimmerwald conference but also no
doubt because of inflammatory articles written for
Nashe Slovo,
a Russian-language newspaper
printed in Paris. In September 1916 Trotsky was politely escorted across the Spanish border by
French police. A few days later Madrid police arrested the internationalist and lodged him in a
"first-class cell" at a charge of one-and-one-haft pesetas per day. Subsequently Trotsky was
taken to Cadiz, then to Barcelona finally to be placed on board the Spanish Transatlantic
Company steamer
Monserrat.
Trotsky and family crossed the Atlantic Ocean and landed in
New York on January 13, 1917
Other Trotskyites also made their way westward across the Atlantic. Indeed, one Trotskyite
group acquired sufficient immediate influence in Mexico to write the Constitution of Querétaro
for the revolutionary 1917 Carranza government, giving Mexico the dubious distinction of
being the first government in the world to adopt a Soviet-type constitution
