:socie:y to 90 what the individual can
not accomplish. There is not an
ideal or an aim that is uplifting which
IS not indicated in the propaganda of
Socialism. Socialists are less pleased
with personal vice and individual pros

revolt against everything which they

devil as prominent a cast in I-ife's

The National Socialist Pla atfOrm of.
1908 disavowes any desire to trespa7s
upon the rights of religious belief.
1t is farthcst from the purpose Of
Socialism to rob the church Of any
good thing it may possess. The Soc
ialist finger posts end this side of the
vale. In the nature of things the poll
teal party OF Socialism should not be
concerned or affiliated with any dis
tinctive religious organization any
more than any other political party
should be- Socialism as a science
covers the entire field OF economies.
It enters all the ramticatlons OF

points of divergence between some ot

about $4,000 a mile for the eastern
