PARLOR SOCIALIST TALK
British Rule an India Versus De-
m0cracy in Ne7c Zealand.

Most of the discussion in the parish house Of the
Church OF the Ascension in 1lth street last night
the relative merits of British rule in lnola
compared with democracy In New Zealand. The
meeting following the evening service in the
church. at which the Rev. Alexander. J. Irvine
preached. was a continuation OF the series held
there during the winter for the discussion OF
socialism and other present day problems.
The discussion opened by Charles Johnston,
for many years in the India civil service. He
quoted statistics of conditions and said that the
poverty in India due 10 the Increase OF the
population exceeding the increase in the productive
of the soil Mr.. Johnston told Of the British
government there. 1t was, he said model one In
every respect: in fact. the greatest on earth des-
potic yet benevolent and intelligent
Charles Edward Russell introduced to speak
about New Zealand, but he didn't reach New Zea-
land until he had said a few things about MT
Johnstons model government his remarks being
loudly applauded
From my observation I can't believe there is
any form Of despotism which is either perfect or
tolerable," said Mr.. Russell. Il visited India some
time ago. and l must say ! couldn't find things
there as good as the preceding speaker pictured
them. Certainly government is not ideal which
takes in taxes from the poorest people on earth
$00,0GOO00 year for a useless military armament
alone
Mr.. Russell. after speaking Of the money lavished
in India on the Durbar while plague and famine
were devastating the country, described his New
Zealand Eutopia where all women vote and there
is no poverty. because monopolies and trusts are
tabooed and undue accumulations of wealth kept
down.
I'd like 10 ask the first speaker" said a man
in the audience, "if there are any rich people in
India. and if they're rich because trey work so
hard or because they have no children"
Mr.. Johnston then had his turn, and when he
finished M. Russell needed inning Then a
socialist added to the attacks the Indian govern
by saying he couldn't sit still when he heard
there poverty in India because Of too many
babies"
Mr.. Irvine closed the meeting by declaring that
there are a hundred thousand members OF the
Socialist party who believe in a spiritual. and not
a material, revolution. The revolution will be an
evolution of society, and by the time 1t comes il

SAYS CHRIST WAS NOT A SOCIALIST.
Dr.. Macarthur, in Discussion, Says Robert
Hunter Has No Sympath-- for Cohen.

Addressing the current events class of the Bible
School of Calvary Baptist Church on the sub
ject Was Jesus a Socialist the Rev. Dr. Rob-
ert 5. Macarthur said yesterday that the Saviour
had ideas the ownership of property re-
garded poverty a blessing rather than an evil,
and was therefore socialist in the modern
economic sense He said:
Taking up the history Of socialism we find il
prolonged It goes back to six hundred years be-
somewhat with communism, started in Greece. The
belief in communism extended to the common
ownership of wives and of families. There is not
the smallest doubt should reject this idea.

cialism its mora modern prominence. He did not
originate the word socialism ! find of
its use before he gave II popular recognition.
Socialism, properly understood. is opposed to
anarchy. No is opposed 10 the bomb
Of socialists, Of which Robert Hunter himself is
a member ! have criticised Mr. Hunter because
he tried TO break the law in attempting to hold
the meeting there. I blame him for It, but I am
quite sure that he has no sympathy for the mis-
guided creature who threw the bomb. I think
assume that the better class Of socialists
have sympathy with the anarchists.
l think indorse Christian socialism as
the true socialism Of Christ. 1t will be seen in
every definition OF socialism that the idea Of an

one who is adherent of this economic theory
in this conception OF socialism Christ had no
share.
In the narrow sense OF the advocation Of a
theory Of government for the good Of the race
based upon the public ownership OF property
Christ was not socialist.
