why the Socialist Movement :?

movement also aims at an ultimate re-
organization of the economic system
which shall put an end to the private
appropriation of profit, interest and
rent, and to the distinction between
capitalists and workers. Socialists re-
gard such reorganization as a neces-
sary outcome of the economic and So
clal evolution now actually taking
place-an outcome which their scien-
tific analysis enables them to foresee
and which their conscious efforts NAV
facilitate. The increasing organization
of industry relieves the capitalists
from their original functions of man.
agement and superintendent, which
are now performed chiefly by the hired
workers. In the competitive market.
large capital has an advantage over
small capital; thus competition among
capitalists tends to bring about con-
centration and virtual monopoly.
Capitalism, itself, on it's full develop
ment, thus renders capitalists unneces-
sary; it creates the antagonistic force
of the wage working class; it trains
these into habits of joint action and
administration; it points to public
ownership of the means of production
as the only alternative to private
monopoly; and it prepares for the
specialization of industry by organizing
it on national or international scale
Socialism, as an ideal of social reor-
ganiZation does not involve regulation
of the peoples private lives nor inter-
ference with private ownership of
consumption goods" and individually
used means of production. 1t involves
public ownership and democratic con-
troll of only such means Of production
as are socially necessary and require
the joint labor of many persons to
operate them. The Socialist move
ment seeks to educate and organize
the working class for political action
to use the powers of legislation, taxa
ton and Jurisdiction in ESTABLISHING
such public ownership. 1t regards
labor unions and cooperative societies
as valuable aIlies.-From American
Year Book, Appleton's, 1910.

generally agree that they should let
business alone. It takes $4,000 man
to do that, you know.
Every proposal to broaden the scope
of municipal administration, every
suggestion to increase the powers and
organize the collective activities of
the municipality is met with the worn
ing cry that 1t is too socialistic. In fact,
there is no issue before the people. in
city or state, in business, politics, or
morals, in which the central vital part
or principle is not sociallstlc or anti
socialistic.

they are going to tell you so, openly
and publicly. They will invite your
support, not by promising to close the
libraries, abolish the civil service
board, charge admission to the
swimming pools, prohibit speaking in
the parks, lower all salaries but their
own. etc, but because in voting for
an avowed socialist, you are voting
for a sensible, scientific method OF

SOMETHING IN A NAME.

If you want to graft the public OF
millions on a ship subsidy, call it
patriotism;
If you want to rob the people of
twenty millions year for hauling the
mails, call it patriotism;
If you want to steal fifty millions
off the people on sugar by means of
tariff, call it patriotism
If you want to steal the public lands
for corporations, do it under the plea
of patriotism;
The villain ever tries to sail under
a good name. In the name of the
good, the worst crimes are daily com
mitted When you hear a man prating
Of his patriotism, look about and see
what graft he is interested in. It's
always a safe way.

The third set of four leaflets will be
published in June and will consist Of
special campaign matter. 1t is
planned to use the 1916 state platform
for one and to work out several orig
NAL leaflets dealing with the problems
that the workers are up against right

(BY AIqernon Lerl

The Socialist movement dates from
the revolutionary period of 1913. Karl

the Communist Manifesto" which
Istill serves, with some slight oualifi-
cation, as an authoritative statement
OF Socialist principles and purposes.
Socialist theory begins with a critical
analysis of the existing economic sys.

put are owned as private property by
other persons, known as capitalists.
The workers wages are determined by
competition in the labor market and
generally tend down to the level of the
cost of subsistence. The net value of
their product, however, is determined
by the amount Of their labor, and vast
ly exceeds their wages. The excess of
the net product over wages falls to the
capitalists, solely by reason of their
ownership of things which other men
must have in order to work and live
The workers are thus automatically
exploited and kept in poverty, while
wealth accumulates in the hands of
the capitalists. The economic inter

are dramatically opposed. The for

presses the revolt Of class conscious

system. While promoting Immediate
