The Socialists and the War

THE Socialists and the War" by Will
liam English Walling (Henry Holt &
Co., New York;, is perhaps the most
valuable contribution to the voluminous
literature on the part played by Euro
pean socialism in the present conflict
Its value is primarily in the mass of
evidence and facts it presents on the
question. Three-fourths of this volume
consists of documentary statements of
Socialists of all countries toward the war,
with special reference to their peace poll
Icy. The impartial running editorial COM
ment sets forth the conditions under
which the various statements were made
and indicates why they are important
In final chapter Mr. Waling discusses
one of the noteworthy results of the war
80 far-the revolutionary State Socialist
measures adopted by the governments.
which sheds a portentous light on what
Europe may expect in the way of social
cnange and reform after the war,
The book is, indeed, of inestimable
value to the student of contemporary
events and aids greatly In clearing away
the misunderstanding and wrong inn
pressions created by the struggle in con-
nection with the most promising and one
Of the most potent forces for peace and
democracy in Europe.

The War in the West

A critical analysis of the war in the
West over its first half year Is at hand
in The Campaign OF 1914 in France and
Belgium CIenry Holt & Co., New YorlS).
G.. H. Perris. the author, is a trained
writer Of the modern historical school
and likewise has the journalistic percep-
tion. He is the special observer at the
French front for the London Daily
Chronicle and is remembered for his
Germany and the German Emperor"
"a Short History of War and Peace"
and the Industrial History of Modern
England"
Tho special value of his book lies in
the fact that Mr.. Perris ignores his
splendid chances as war correspondent
to dwell on the multitude Of deeds of in
dividunl heorlsm which have come within
his ken, and has likewise foregone op-
portunities for spectacular and sensa-
tional high points" of the campaign.
Instead he has given lucid, compre-
hensive and understandable account OF
just what happened and why. War
moves and the strategy that inspired
them are fully and plauslbly detailed.
rhe narrative is full and illuminative of
the land war in the West from the siege
Of Llege to the end of the first battles in
Flanders

An Indictment of "IKultur"

Among the books which can hardly do
the cause of Great Britain and the Allies
any good in this country is entitled
when Blood is Their Argument" by
Ford MADDOX Hueffer George H. Doran
Company, New YorlO Mr. Hueffer be-
gins by pilloring Prussianism in all its
military. governmental and cultural as
poets but before he is through he has
indicted practically the entire German
nation with all its people. Much of his
criticism is no doubt true, judging by
what all the world now knows of the
system known as Prussianism, but Mr.
Hueffer hardly can succeed in convincing
the American people through this book
that the Germans are an unworthy and
mediocre people; or that the work of its
thinkers, philosophers, writer's artists
and poets has been vain and valueless. A
prosecutor inevitably makes his case
stronger by removing from his indlct-
ment all traces of personal bias and pri-
vate animoslty. This Mr.. Hueffer has
not done. This Is his mistake.
