DENMARK IS FIRM STAND
BY Marion Lucas

What the Socialists and other radi-
Gals of Denmark will do to prevent
the entrance of their country in the
war is to be determined at a special
congress of the Socialist party of Den
mark. At the recent congress of
Danish Socialists the delegates de-
clared their determination to support
the radical members of the govern
ment to maintain neutrality.
The working class of Denmark is
more powerful than the working class
of any other nation because the Dan
ish workers are better organized. The
Socialist party and the syndicalists
both play a leading role there. AT
the last congress $50 organizations
were represented by 259 delegates,
who voiced the wishes of 10000 af-
filiated members of the party itself,
representatives of the syndicalists, of
organizations of young Socialists, of
farmers and of women syndicalists.
Swedish and Norwegian parties both
sent representatives.
Since the last Congress eighty-three
Socialist groups have. been organized
in Denmark. The actual number OF
those who Joined is estimated at 12,-
600. Altogether there are $4,000, of
which number 5000 are women. The
parliamentary Socialists number 80
deputies, who, with the 81 radical
members, constitute the majority of
the assembly. The 6S candidates of
the party polled 107,365 votes at the
last election, showing that the So.
cialist party is the strongest of all
the Danish parties.

A PAYING BUSINESS

NEW YORK.-Organized charity
was arraigned recently by Misha E.
Applebaum, founder of the Humani-
tartan Cult, who would have the gov
eminent start welfare department
to take care of all the poor. If the
nation is rich enough to buy battle
ships and to put a musket into the
hands Of every man when war comes,
Mr. Applebaum thinks it should be
able to help the needy.
He said there were 5408 organized
charities in the United States which
made annual reports, with receipts of
s118,379,859 and payments of SILL
439,155, leaving a surplus of more
than 100000. The running ex-
penses he found to be s94,658,836,
thus giving the poor $16,839,319. The
number of poor persons in the United
States he found to be 100000.

POLICED BY 40 LABOR MEN

HAMILTON, O.-Forty union men
have been sworn in as special police
men to guard the 1000 machinists
and other strikers from eight Ham
ilton shops from the gunner, gang,
sters and thugs imported by the sher-
if to serve the employers as deputy
sheriffs.
Mayor Fred A. Hinkel, the city's
Socialist executive, startled the
bosses with this unusual procedure.
When swearing in the special union
policemen he gave them implicit in
structions to maintain the peace and
see that no violence or anything det-
rimental to the best interests of the
ely be permitted.
Mayor Hinkel warned them to bar
drunken persons from the vicinity of
the eight shops where the men are
on strike, and to protect the shops
from damage.

SERBIA IS STARVING

MONASTIR, Serbia.-Men, women,
children, and even animals, fleeing
before the advance of hostile armies,
are dying of hunger by the roadsides
and mountain paths.
In large areas of this war racked
country there has been no food for
many days. Packs of dogs prowl the
breadless land like wild animals
searching for food.
The world war has developed no
scenes of greater horror than those
being enacted along the trail of the
marching armies.
The road from Nish to Monastir is
a highway of agony, more dreadful
than the corpse strewn Klondike trail.
1t is lined with dead horses, inter
spersed with the bodies of men, wom-
en- and children, fugitives who drop
ped out through exhaustion and lack
of food.
