BREAKS THE BARRIER.
DR.. Thomas of the Peoples Church In
Chicago Declares For Socialism.

Chicago. April 17.-Rev. DR.. H. W.
Thomas broke down the barriers of
restraint in the Peoples church yester-
day and declared himself a believer in
socialism.
This subject has cost me more men
tai and spiritual struggle during the
last three years than any other, but the
voice of duty, love of country, of man
and God, called me down. he said to
his congregation in McVicker's theater-
The one solution that I can see in the
future is some form of cooperation
some form of mutualisTn- 1t does not
hurt me if you call it socialism
From the galleries there came an
answering thunder of applause There
was a silence in the body of the church
and in the boxes, broken only here and
there with a slight ripple of handicap
ping.
Several times during the last year DR..
Thomas has shown drift toward social
ism. During the mayoralty campaign
Dr. Thomas was conspicuous on the
Auditorium platform the night of Alt
geld's meeting. During the last presi-
Dental campaign he was known as an
earnest supporter of the Chicago plat
form.
Referring to the church DR. Thomas
in his sermon said: There ought to
be one other place beside the cemetery
where the rich and the poor can meet
as one"
