OLD MARX DISCIPLE
RAPS.v|CT0R BERGER
David Goldstein, Once Socialist
Candidate For Mayor Of
Boston, Tells Record.

David Goldsteih, Boston, formerly
a Socialist, who quit the movement
when he found, he says, that it did
not represent the interests of labor,
criticised Victor Berger.
IL was Socialist when it was
not so easy to be one as it is now"
Goldsteln said. Il was their candidate
for mayor of Boston. 1 thought the
party represented working men. I
was a union cigar maker, and l have
been union man 20 years. 1 quit
Socialism when l found it was Il
scheme of exploitation for the po-
itical gain of a few.
Victor Berger had the audacity
to say he was the only representative
OF the workingmen in congress. There
are Is members who carry union
cards. Congressman Wilson, Penn
sylvania. has done more for the work.
ing men than Berger ever will. Berg
er gives you hot air; Wilson gave the
working men the department of
mines.
Wilson introduced an old age pen
sion bill four years before Berger
ever saw congress.
THE Berger bill at first prohibited
anyone who had not lived in this
country 16 years from getting a pen
sion. It prohibited anyone who had
committed a felony from getting a
pension, and did not pension a man
who had deserted his family, or a
woman who had deserted. But a So
cialist local objected. These pro-
visions were eliminated. The bill your
representative now stands for ought
to be repudiated by every American
citizen.
II challenge anyone to show that
Eugene V. Debs ever did anything
that benefited the workingmen."

II must get my club said the fool
killer.
Hold on!' I said. "Pretty soon
we will arrest the man, because he
does not do anything; then the judge

in Jail because he was idle out OF
jail; and the workers will tax them
selves to pay for all that"
The fool-killer gasped, Il must or

ILLINOIS CENTRAL,
SUFFERS FROM STRIKE

The Chicago Record Herald is
authority for the statement that
weakness in the Illinois Central stock
is continuing as a distinctive feature
of the market, and excites much
comment.
There is report that the dividends
are to be cut, but this could not be
varified, although the recent record
of earnings by the Illinois Central
suggests a change in the dividend
policy.
During the first seven months Of
this fiscal year the operating income
Of the company shows a decrease Of
$5,16O,382. During these months it
cast the Illinois Central $2,712,176
more than in 1911 to handle $2,704,-
628 less traffic.

READING AND WRITING
TEST TO NEW COMERS

WASHINGTON, April 11.-Sena-
tor Simmons is advocating a reading
and writing test for immigrants as an
amendment to the Dillingham; immi-
grafton bill.
The senator asserted that the oppo-
sition to this test came chiefly from
the steamship and railroad companies
and interests which seek cheaper
labor than the American standard Of
living will allow, and ascribing the
recent strike in Lawrence, Mass, as
a result OF our Immigration laws, the
manufacturers taking advantage Of
the ignorance of foreign workmen by
paying a starvation wage.
