'4sadaI Democracy"

Il. Kerr Co. CAiraso-
A slight little volume entitled
Changes ia the Theory and Tactics
of the sGerman) S0cial Democracy Is
considered very important contribu-
ton TO the literature of socialism by
its translator. Winfield r. Gaylord. It
was originally written in German by
Paul KarnpmmeyeT. who is quite un-
like the average socialist in that he is
not aggressive. He says IN his preface.
This modest little work On the
changes in the theory and tactics OF
the social democracy is hardly intended
for a hot biooded controversial effort.
It is intended TO say TO the reader
simply, these are the problems over
which there have arisen such passion
ate struggles in the social democracy, (,
and here. also, are the characteristic
solutions which have been found for
the problems
The book does not exactly criticise: it
tells Of the battle Of ideas within the
social democracy and rather invites
study than promotes any controversy.
That many grave mistakes have been
made is admitted by the agitators
themselves. usually. however, due to
thing for the cause. But the great
questions OF the agricultural and COM
mercial policy are as obscure as ever
and little is suggested on the question
OF free trade or protective tariff The
book is written calmly and at times
with much charm OF style.

Portable thought that any omission on
their part can check American progress
or endanger our country's continued
development" He goes on TO compare
such men TO the old lady who declared
that she had always noticed that If she
lived until the first of March she lived
ali the rest Of the year. And yet. at
last there came q first day Of March
which passed without her notice.
