POLITICAL PA TCHW DIRK
Letters on Socialism BY II. s. WELLS

Yes. some of the greatest rascals have
expressed themselves thus. Can you
for a moment imagine capitalism and
altruism going hand in hand?
In these days where greed for gain
is uppcrmost in the mind OF all. 1t
really is a hard matter TO be strictly
honest.
The socialist has no war with the
capitalist and IL is very unfair that
We intimate that the social iniquities
OF which We complain are due to their
personal depravity; but 1t is the sys'
tenn with which we are dissatisfied
The Rev. DR.. Lyman Abbott once
said. The labor question can never be
solved SO long as one set OF men own
the tools of production, and another
set of men use them.
These are the conditions to which
We object.
We have another patch on the gar
ment" in the labor union idea
Their theory is that by organizing
I'm large numbers. the stress OF com
petition can be relieved and any az
gression on the part of employers met
with organized refusal to work. or an
organized refusal 10 buy, called boy.
colt. But It should be evident to any
one that powerful as these weapons
may have been In the DAYS when com
petition was keen. they are powerlees
against monopoly.
Again, the unions are unable to deal
with the fact that the reserve force
OF capitalism. the army or the unem
ployed. Is constantly recruited from
the ranks OF the vanishing middle
class.
Unions have undoubtedly done good
work in the past. chiefly IN developing
class consciousness among the labor
ers, but for future benefits they should
alter their course to meet the changed
conditions. M

Langley set the Victor southwest
again. keeping her at an elevation OF
1000 feet. Soon they left the twin
spires OF the Cathedral Chatres look
ing like two tiny blobs far beneath
them. They crossed the Loire above
Orleans. and made south across the
Chartreuse country and so for Angou
leme.
All were curiously silent. All had
leapt SO suddenly into new existence
IL was now about o'clock, and
Strong turned to Miss Hunt. What
do you say to tea?" he asked
Miss Hunt reused herself and said:
II think IL is an excellent idea" So
she made it, and they all sat about the
we'll drinking their tea in silence.
They sped over Bordeaux. and once
again had the sea beneath them, Lang
ley taking short cut as he made for
the mountains between Bilboa and
San Sebastian.
Strong had now become bored with
the excitement OF the day. and he
ordered Langley TO put the Victor up
10 higher altitude. So. practically
beyond human vision, they made
across the interior OF Spain for the
mountains OF Sierra de Gredoc. aud
then across Caceres and over the fam
Gus battlefield of Badajos, and on
above the deserted strip OF Portugal TO
the coast.

up the white-walled town and set the
waters in the famous Day dancing.
Now said Strong. "as We have
picked up our bearings. let US get up
higher"
The Victor went soaring skywards.
and the air grew chill and dank,
though the sun still shone with great
| brilliancy.
Presently the sea became only a

| Up 20 then there had been but little
conversation. All were so oppressed
By the novelty of their surroundings
that they had been unable to find their
! tongues.
But now they regained their voices
and were loud in their marvellings of

They hung for little while in space.
while Strong stood holding a quick
debate with himself as to the precise
course that he should now pursue.
Presently he looked round and said !:

NO. ~.
Continued from yesterday

A general determination TO work
longer hours with greater application
would bring untold harm TO the labor
ing classes-that Is under capitalism.
Capitalism breaks down the home and
discourages thrift and industry. So
cialism pays nothing for sloth and
everything for effort
A plausible argument heard In
some quarters attributes our. sociai
evils In a large part TO the whisky Dot
tie. and contends that were the liquor
traffic suppressed By the strong arm
OF prohibitory law, poverty ard It's
attendant evils would pass away
Let US see:
Under capitalism, prohibition. could
il be effected, would accomplish three
things. First. 1t would force a re-
trenchment OF expenditures by 80
much as Is now spent In Intoxicating
liquors. and with the consequent rail-
in wages already discussed.
Second. IL would preserve. 10 COM
pete I'm the labor market, all those
which liquor now incapacitates or de-
stroys adding to the stress or COM
petltion and consequent depression OF
wages
Third. It. would dispose OF employ
ment and turn penniless on the labor
market all those now engaged directly
and indirectly In the liquor trafiic and
it's callings.
Hence could prohibition under capi-
talism be enforced, the poverty and
consequent misery or the people
would I've increased.
The contention is often urged that
there is but one solution possible Tor
our social ills, and that Is there has
not been sufficient religion disseminate
cd among individuals. IA
Sanctify us through the Gospel ana
all will be well with the social order.

record" when rush of people came
through the opening leading 10 the
staircase The mob that surged up
was led by a couple of policemen with
drawn swords.
Strong jumped back and leaped into
the Victor.
"Up," he cried 10 Langley, and up
they went
"Au revoir," he cried. "Au revoir, "
A'few seconds later the Victor was
500 feet above the roof. and Strong,
craning over. could see the policemen
brandishing their swords far beneath
him.
Suddenly he became grave.

ness for one day. though it may have
served its purpose, inasmuch as 1t flu
