This is the integral reproduction of the “Manifesto to the proletariat” that the Local Union of Industrial Workers of the World (IWW) of Iquique published in late 1922, just before the ceremony to commemorating the fifteenth anniversary of the massacre of 1907. The document sets out the control exerted by the Chilean Communist Party (PCCH) over the Chilean Workers Federation (FOCH) as the main reason to the Wobblies for leave the convocatory, originally organized jointly. In the development of the said above argument, other local and international union tensions are revealed.
