Representative Kahn Offers Proposal
to Minimize Confiscations in Mexico
Fractional Chieftains Steal Proper

Sell 1t to Us.
Ell Paso, Jan. 22.-1t was reported
fere, but not verified, that General
Francisco Villa had shot and killed
George c. Carothers, representative
of the American state department
with the Villa army. Roberto Pes
guerra, former Carranza representa-
tive at Washington, who is in Ell Paso,
said he had heard the report, but did
net say where it came from.
T. has been rUmored for some time
that Villa was very much incensed at
Carothers, formerly his warm friend,
because of the defense Carothers
made of the action of Louis Canova,
another representative Of Mr.. Bryan,
in helping to get General Iturbide out
of Mexico City.

Washington, Jan. 22.-Oficials Of
the administration who have to con-
tend with the problems presented by
conditions in Mexico, regard the pro-
pcsa, of Representative Kahn of Cali
fornia, to prohibit importation into
the United States Of confiscated prop,
erty from Mexico as one Of the most
sensible suggestions yet made for
dealing with the situation there in
the interest of Americans and other
foreigners.
Representative Kahn has introduced
a bill on the subject. It provides that
customs collectors shall not permit
irnnortotiors into tho United States
from Mexico unless satisfactory proof
is furnished that the articles were &C
tually sold by the original owner and
not conf1scated by one or another of
the military chieftains in Mexico. The

CAMPAIGN OPENED

ITO his present position, commissioner
of public works, an office which he
has filled with signal success, his adj
ministration being generally regarded
as having been in every way more
satisfactory than that of any of his
predecessors, of whatever political
utilization. The interests of organized
labor, and of wage-earners in general,
have been jealousy safeguarded at all
times by this able champion of the
workers. Even his political oppon-
ents have been forced to admit that
no more efficient public servant ever
sat in the city hall.
All things considered, there is every
reason to suppose that once more (as
in 1910 Everett will be honored by
the election of three Socialists, a
credit alike to the great cause
of Socialism and to the city whose
welfare they will be privileged to
promote and safeguard.

1. WHO is A SOCIALIST

Dear Comrade:
In a recent editorial in The North
west Worker you admit that you diff
fer from the best-knoWn Socialists of
the world in your attitude towards
militarism and war. You say; IF
the founders of scientific Socialism
were Socialists, and IF the present
day leaders of the Socialist parties are
Socialists, then you and those who
share your attitude are something
more than Socialists" In reality, how
ever, you don't grant to the rest of us
this qualifying IF. You rather deny
point blank that the founders of sci
entific Socialism were Socialists, or
that the hitherto recognized leaders
of the Socialist parties are Socialists
You claim the title of Socialist eXclu
siyely for your own type of mind by
this emphatic assertion:
1--WE reiterate, that whenever So
cialist takes up arms in defense OF
national boundaries, he ceases then
and there to be a Socialist, the essence
of which is internationalism, not pa
triOtism, the class-struggle, not tho
race-struggle, or a struggle over polit

ical boundaries or masters"
This proclamation of yours attempts
to set up a new mark of distinction
among those who, since the days of
Marx and Engles, have been universal
Iy known as scientific Socialists.
You will readily agree that any 9th
er but the scientific kind of Socialism
is not debatable between us. We
haven't a moment to spare for the
utopian Socialism that starts out from
imaginary ideals, or from abstract
principles of speculation, or from an
assumed true" human nature. Nor
can it be worth our while to differ
about the sentimental feelings which
lead some people to Socialism. Mel
Their will you care to measure the
worth of peoples Socialism by any
religious standard like that of Chris
tian Socialism. You and l want to
deal with realities, particularly with
those natural and social forces of de-
velopment which, in our opinion, drive
the capitalist world forward in the di-
rection of Socialism. And by Social
ism we mean an internationally or
ganized industrial and political fed
Grafton of human beings without class
distinctions.

WOMAN SOCIALIST MAYOR

Los Angeles has the distinction of
having had the first woman mayor
of any city on the Pacific Coast and
the first of any city of the first class
in the United States. 1t happened
thus; With both the mayor and presi-
dent of the council away, the council
was forced to select a president pro
tenn who should also be mayor. Com

Socialist, and the only woman mem
Der of the council was named and at
once took the mayors office. But it
was only for day. Everett will do
better than that next November. They
will elect a woman to the office of
Commissioner of Finance and she
will be mayor for four years.

CANDIDATES CHOSEN
A Strong Ticket
REDS OF EVERETT ARE
SANGUINE OF SUCCESS
Katherine II. Hodgins, G. w. Carr and
j. M. Salter Chosen

Last Sunday evening the Socialist
Party of Everett met in caucus and
endorsed three comrades for the posi-
tions of commissioner of public works,
commissioner of finance, and commits
sioner of public health and safety.
J. NJ. Salter was named to file for
his present position, with no candi-
date in the Local against him. Kath-
crime H. Hodgins was unanimously en-
dorsed for commissioner of finance,
and G. w. Carr was the choice for
commissioner of public health and
safety.
Comrade Carr served a term four
years ago as city councilman, when
three Socialists were elected, and has
an enviable record for honesty, com
mon sense, and general efficiency. He
is millwright by trade, and has been
an active, faithful organization man
for years. He has the respect and
confidence of all who know him,
whether they agree with his political
views or not.
Katherine H. Hodgins, well known
in three states as an educator of un-
usual ability, has won wide recogni-
ton in Socialist circles for her very
remarkable executive ability, as well
as for her sound scholarship and UNI
firing zeal for the cause of Socialism
and the welfare of the working class
in general. She is in every respect
more than qualified to fill, with credit
TO our party, the important office for
which she has been named.

OUR PLATFORM

| Modern society has for it's founda
ton form OF, industry known as cap
| italism, whose distinctive feature is
the wage system, method Of exploit
tation that enables the owners of the
means of life, such as land, machin
cry, mills, mines and raw materials
to absorb the major portion of the
laborer's product.
The Socialist Party of Everett is a
part of the worldwide organized move
ment of the working class to abolish
the wage system, thereby putting an
end to the exploitation of one class by
another class and establish a coop.
erative society.
We hold that capitalism has fulfilled
it's historic mission in the evolution
of industry and has become inimical
to further human progress.
Unemployment and all it's resultant
crimes and conditions such as physi-
cal deterioration, poverty and misery
are due to this outgrown system
Social science teaches that systems
of industry that have outgrown their
usefulness have disappeared and new
ones have taken their place.
We also maintain that the Socialist
movement is the conscious, intelligent
force in society that is making for a
new order of society
Our particular mission is TO organ
ize the working class politically in or
der to secure the necessary political
power to peacefully, if possible, usher

in the new order whereby production
| is carried on for use instead of profit.
AS means to this end in the pres
ent municipal campaign we place be-
fore the people of Everett three can
didates, which, if elected, are pledged
to carry out the following policy and
platform:
1. TO consider the interests of the
workers above all others.
2. The abolition of the contract
system on all city work, substituting
the day labor plan instead.
3. To carry forward the proposed
municipal water project with as much
dispatch as the laws and courts will
permit, and such other further extern
sion of municipal ownership as con-
ditions will warrant.
A. Encouragement of the use of
the public school buildings for social
functions and the extension of social
utilities such as comfort stations, rec
reation and Fairgrounds, parks and
bathing facilities
5. To repeal the provision of the
so-called vagrancy ordinance which
makes it a crime for a working man
to be out of funds, and a job.
6. To use the police to enforce the
laws and ordinances, state and city,
and abolish the system of using the
police power to brutally intimidate
the workers when exercising their
constitutional right to picket and as
semblage.

WAGES IN AMERICAN
INDUSTRIES TOO LOW
UNJUST Distribution

/ Discussing the first of these causes,
the report summarizes evidence show
ing that A families possess aggregate
/ incomes totaling at least fifty millions
/ per year, while between one-fourth
and one-third of male workers in fac
tories and mines, IS years of age and
over, earn less than SO per week,
and only about one-tenth earn more
than $40 per week. Inequality in the
distribution of wealth and income is
set forth as follows;
First, with regard to the adult
workmen, the fathers and potential
fathers, from whose earnings accord
ing to the American standard the
support of the family is to be derived,
Between one-fourth and one-third
of the male workers in factories and
mines Is years of age and over earn
less than $40 per week; from two
thirds to three-fourths earn less than
SIS, and only about one-tenth earn
more than 500 a week. This does
not take into consideration lost work
ing time for any cause.
Next are the women, the most por-
tentously growing factor in the labor
force, whose wages are important, not
only for their own support or as the
supplement of the meager earnings
of their fathers and husbands, but be-
ton in a rapidly extending field, they
threaten the whole basis of the wage
scale From two-thirds to three
fourths of women workers in factories,
stores, laundries, and in industrial oc-
equations generally, work at wages of
less than So week. Approximately
one-fifth earn less than 81 and nearly
one-half earn less than Sc a week.

CAUSES OF UNREST

The report finds that the causes of
Industrial unrest group themselves
almost without exception under four
main sources which include all the
others. These four are:
1. Unjust distribution of wealth
and income.
2. Unemployment and denial of op-
portunity to earn living.
3. Denial of justice in the crea-
ton, in the adjudication and in the
administration of law.
4. Denial of the right and oppor-
tunity to form effective organizations.

THREE MAIN ESSENTIALS

Marx and Engels themselves de-
clared that Socialism became a sci
ence by the systematic recognition and
application of three main essentials;
Cd the historical method of social
study and practice known as Histori-
cal Materialism, or the materialst con-
ception of history This is based upon
the understanding that human socie-
ties are subject to laws of develop
ment operating like laws of nature.
The most powerful social motors, ac-
cording to Marx, are the forces of eco
nomic evolution; CD the MARKHAM eco
Monies. They are distinguished from
all others by the discovery of the
methods that produce the surplus val
ne of the industrial capitalists, dis
