Socialism az Il 10.

ITO know and understand Socialism
as IL Is, We must lay aside both the
claims Of Socialists and the attacks
OF their opponents and confine our
selves to the activities Of Socialist or
CARNATIONS, the grounds on which
their decisions have been reached.
and the reasons by which they are
ultimately defended
II Is In this spirit that William Eng
lish Walling has written the fairest,
which we have yet seen.
The book Is divided into three
parts. which simplifies 1t for the lay
mind. The first deals with the ex-
ternal conditions from which Social
ism has come into being: the second,
the internal struggles by which II is
shaping itself. and the third with its
reaction upon its environment" This
Is SO comprehensive and yet so clear
that the reader feels for the first time
In his attempt to grasp the fundamen-
tails Of Socialism, that he has got
something and not been cheated with
rainbow theories. The first paragraph
In this altogether satisfactory book Ia
q protest against ANY program Of re-
form which fails to deal with society
as q whole" We are prone to think
that Socialism deals only with the
working classes, whereas II deals and
reckons with the capitalist class and
all classes Of society In desperate
effort toward readjustment for the
sake OF humanity. That the crops of
this country should be worth billions
or dollars. that nature should yield so
lavishly and ut the same time chill
dren starve Is. In itself, plea for q
wider understanding Of this philoso-
ply which aims to solve this problem.
The chapter on Equality OF oppor-
tunity," with its setting forth OF social
caste and class rule In America. the
country - so-called liberty and equal
| ity, should be read by everyone hav-
ing the good Of the people at heart
We are proud that the caste of India.
the snobbery Of England, the vain
glory OF royalty. do not exist here. but
we have with US a more subtle and
perhaps as deadly caste as any In
foreign countries. This book can be
recommended to all people, either for
or against Socialism, for 1t Is phil
