REASONS ARE GIVEN
WHY SOCIALISTS ARE FIGHTING
fFrom the Yale Reyiewl

(From the Yale Review)
 The Socialists are International ists in the sense that they recognize the identity of human interests, preach the solidarity of the workers of all countries in their common struggle for economic emancipation and ardently believe in the ultimate federation or organic union of all nations.
 But they cannot close their eyes to the existence of the national unit and its importance in the economy of modern civilization. It is in and through the separate countries that the battle of Socialism must be fought, and it is only by national victories of Socialism that the ideal international brotherhood of man can be realized.
 A nation under a foreign yoke can never, of course, be free and democratic internally, and it is be- cause the Socialists of most of the belIigerent countries believe their fatherlands are threatened by for eign yoke that they are fighting in this war.-Morris Hillquit.

BRINGS OUT REASON
 FOR ATTITUDE
King Constantine Declares Central
 Powers Must Win the War

PARIS, Oct. 10-What purport. to be details of the historic inter view between King Constantine and Elutherois Venizelos, which resulted in the latter's resignation as prime minister of Greece, are printed ir the Greek Journal Kairoi.
 After agreeing to mobilization as precaution involving no change of policy, the king asked the premier what was the object of the concen- tration of such a strong army on the Macedonian frontier. Mir. Ven izelos answered that the object was twofold-first, to defend the country, and, second, to go to the aid of Serbia in case she was attacked by Bulgaria.
 The king then remarked that he agreed with Venizelos SO far as de- lending the country was concerned, but could not see that Greece was call ed upon to help Serbia. The premier recalled the obligations imposed up- on Greece by her treaty of alliance, but Constantine retorted that when Greece asked Serbia's aid against Turkey in May 1914, it was refused.
 To further argument on the part of Venizelos the king replied that the premier was contradicting himself, for when the allied powers asked Greece to assist Serbia at the time of the Austrian attack Venizelos made a promise of such assistance conditional upon the armed cooper ation of Rumania and the benevol- ent neutrality of Bulgaria. These conditions not havng been pledged, the king pointed out, he refused to join Serbia at time when the Aus train forces arrayed against her did not exceed 150,000 and Bulgaria was not hostile.
 "But today" added the king, "the Austro- German are a half million, to whom must be added 100000 Bull garians, and the retreat of the Rus sians prevents the Rumanians from doing anything for Serbia.

COMMISSION
HEARS PINCHOT TALK
He Favors Government Ownership
and Says Education Is Pois-

[By John Edwin Nevin. United Press
Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, Jan. 30.-Ftrst hand
investigation OF conditions in the steel
industry and in Pennsylvania and
West Virginia coal properties may be
undertaken by the federal commission
on industrial relations. The commits
sion will end its inquiries In New
Ger consideration plans to proceed to
Pittsburgh on leaving here. but will
not make final decision until the
latter part OF next week.
With John D. Rockefeller, Jr, dis
posed OF, the commission expects to
find its second best witness In J..
Pierpont Morgan who will take the
stand Monday. He has been asked to
give his views on absentee landlord
ism" which, the commission has been
told by number OF witnesses is the
chief cause Of Industrial unrest in this
country. Morgan Is representative OF
many of the greatest corporations OF
the country, and he will be asked also
to give his views on relationship which
shareholders and directors in such
concerns should bear toward working
employees and on the suggested plan to
democratize industry by giving labor
representation on boards OF directors.
The surprising development to date
OF the commissions investigations in
New York has been the agreement OF
the millionaire witnesses that the
workers generally should receive high
er wages. The conspicuous dissent
was DR.. Chas. w. Elliott OF Harvard
University, who, while declining to
name what he considered was prop
er minimum wage, said he believed
most working men spent too much for
their food.
The commission has already decid-
ed to recommend to congress estab-
lishment Of federal employment bu-
reau with branches everywhere, pos
sibly cooperating with the postonce
department All witnesses 30 far
have advocated such a bureau.
Today,s session was consumed in
receiving the miners side OF the Colo
RADIO strike situation through John r.
Lawson, president OF district Is. Unit
ed Mine Workers of America, and the
views Of Amos Pinchot on the CHIEF
causes of Industrial unrest. Pinchot,
who carefully explained that he Was
neither a socialist nor monopolist,"
declared the only solution was for the
government to own all mines and
other natural resources, operating
them under short term leasing sys-
tenn and absolute government owner
ship and operation OF the transrorta-
ton companies. He also charged d.
rectlv that Education was poisoned
at -its source" through the pernicious
Influence OF great foundations such as
the Carnegie and Rockefeller POUNDS
tions and the general education board.
Their benefactions, Pinchot alleged,
prevent educational institutions favor

way.
