New York Socialists said las, night

party when he urged Americans to pre-
pare against 4 death struggle with ter

81 saw Russell a few DAYS ago IN
Washington and we agreed 10 disagree

that he witnessed have led him To- be-
lieve that such a condition Is "A p,rmi-
nent feature of human life Instead ~ a
temporary insanity Induced by the war"
Allan /. Benson. Socialist writer and

night termed Mr.. Rusecll's statement on

There Is no split in the party on tho

W. believe that preparedness does
not make for peace. hut for war. I
would be the last man TO wish To see THIS
