SOCIALISM NOT PRIMARILY IN
TEREsTED IN THE WORK.
ING cLAsS.

Socialism through it's mouthpieces
and representatives has always been
spoken of as the movement par excel
lence of the working class. Trade
unions and reform associations of vari-
Gus kinds which showed an interest in
the workers cause were denounced as
snares and decisions which the work
ingmen should carefully avoid or at
the best only momentarly support and
then with the sole view of bringing
those unions and associations to the
Socialist cause, wherein the worker
could alone find his interests truly
represented, particularly against the
hated bourgeois or higher middle
class. And these professions were ever
made with the knowledge at hand that
many of the members of the Socialist
party and particularly the leaders
were not workingmen, as that term is
commonly understood, at all. but
preachers, lawyers. writer's and teach
ers.
Now comes Mr.. William English
Walling, the well-known Socialist writ
er and lecturer, radical of radicals,
and at the sixth annual convention of
the intercollegiate Socialist Society,
recently held in the city of New York,
frankly confesses that Socialism is not
primarily movement of the working
class at all. Il consider Socialism a
middle class movement" said Mr..
Walling, according to the New York
Call, 1T is a middle class movement
first Of all and d working class move.

class to which he said Socialism be.

which was given under the glaring

deliberate lie on the part Of the au-

ing a notable decrease, thanks to the
good sense of the American people. In
this case the situation was practically
the same as in every other instance,
people must finally have an opinion of
their own. What have been looked
upon as some of Americas foremost
magazines in the early part of the
war tried to satisfy their Anglo-Amer-
lean feelings by heaping abuse upon the
Kaiser. AS the real situation becomes
more and more apparent many Of
these magazines and newspapers have
tried to apologize for their attempt
and back away gracefully by turning
their abuse into ridicule and express.

cartoons. These war experts have not
even the saving grace of the profess
sional expert witness. From every
source where Information is manufac-
tured it becomes more noticeable day
by day that the English tinted news
has in many quarters proved boom
erang. Prejudice against Germany
was manufactured on wholesale
plan and distributed in the same man
ner. The position of the war expert
can give no advice with better class
than could an English cabinet min
lister, who gave it to further his own
cause.
David Lloyd-George, Chancellor of
the English Exchequer, attempted to
startle Americans In a silly speech re-
garding the prowess of Germany and
the danger to America. In speech
made February 28th he stated, IF
Germany is triumphant over England,
she would be practically the dictator
of the world" and, growing eloquent,
he endeavored to appeal to the Anglo
maniac with these words, Where
could we look then for a country to
protect us-to America" Continuing
he said:
IF countries like France and Rus
STA, with huge armies, and we, with
the most powerful navy in the world,
could not face this terrible machine,
how could America step in? 1t would
be more than America could do to
defend her interests in her own con-
tinent. America is more unready than
we were."

ing the position of Lord George. What
assurance has he that America would
violate her neutrality to protect her
ancient enemy? What reason has he
to believe that the United States
would trample upon the sacred rights
and sever the kindred ties of her citi-
zens that come from all the countries
Of the world, to maintain the su-
premacy of Britain upon the seas?
The manufactured sentiment of the
most humble paid British press agent
in this country up to Lord George
himself has attempted to foster the
sort of sentiment as expressed by the
Chancellor of Exchequer. The great
papers of this country make no refer.
