II confess myself a sem~i-socialist,"
said Professor Russell. Socialism is
nine-tenths wrong and one-tenth right.
The postal system as it is at present
maintained n our. public schools /
implicitly believe in. do, however.
charge socialism with serious error on
it's attitude towards labor. Labor is a
thing to be sought after. no avoided.
We can only be happy and contented
when we exercise i~ntelligently our fac
uities.''
Mr.. Killingheck accused capital of
controlling the tools of production and
distribution.
"a few Individuals said Mr.. Killing
beck. have controlled all production
so that to a large extent We. the labor
ing people, have become a nation of
wage slaves because Of this condition
What we want is a change to old con-
ditions. Capital has destroyed the
homes because 81 per cent. of the peo-
Pile of this country do not even own
