ME YORK, May 9.-Delivering a
~ sermon from the same pulpit in
~ which he praised John d. RoclSe-
feller last Sunday, DR., Alexander Irvine,
a well known Socialist and noted
preacher, bitterly attacked Andrew Car
negie in a sermon at the Church of the
Ascension here tonight.
The address was principally in the
form of an answer to what Irvine styled
Carnegie's criticism of Socialism in one
of the ironmasters books.
"Mr. Carnegie said the speaker,
scattered libraries broadcast for the
worlxmen, but works his laborers twelve
hours day so they won't have time 70
read the books.
There are 1900 men in the Carnegie
plants, yet only 120 work eight hours
a day.
1.-The rest work twelve hours a day
and seven days a week.
"Mr. Carnegie, al a dinner with forty
| five Of his associates dwelt on the fact
that all but two of them had been
workmen in the steel plants and the
entire forty-five were now millionaires
as the result of their steel holdings.
This he advances as an argument
in favor of the present condition of
things.
I'VE do not want a few big men at
that awful cost; the cost is too great;
what we want is a general uplift of
workingmen."
