A LESSON IN
SOCIALIST DEMOCRACY

Meyer London, Socialist Congress-
man, will render an account of his
stewardship to the members of Local
New York, Socialist Party, in Public
School No. 50. Members in good
standing-proven by showing their
Socialist credentials at the door-will
alone be admitted.
The meeting will not merely approve
or disapprove Of its representative s
course in Congress so far, but will
also confer with him as to his future
stand on the questions that may come
up in Congress. AS the announcement
of the executive committee of the local
puts it:
eff we want our representatives in
the Legislative bodies to represent the
party, we must give them a chance to
know what the party members want
to discuss and agree upon a policy
We have no right to assume that our
representatives are mind readers and
know what we want"

MARYLAND
IS AGAINST
CONSUMPTION

One of the most truly representative
gatherings of organized labor ever
held in New Zealand was that con-
vened in Wellington the last week in
January to consider the question of
CONSUMPTION. Eighty-seven industrial
and political organizations were rep
resented, and the list included dele
gates from every Trades and Labor
Council in the country, with the ex-
ception of the Otago Labor Council
which council had already declared
against the CONSUMPTION of life unless
accompanied by the CONSUMPTION of
wealth. Practically every section of
the Labor moderate" and
'extreme"-had delegates present,
and the manifesto which was issued
as the result of the deliberations of
the conference may be taken as the
unanimous verdict of the New Zea-
land working class upon the subject.
mo document" says the "Maoriland
Worker" was ever more truly the
expression of the whole of the body
issuing it, and we venture to think
that SO positively unanimous a pro-
nouncement from a national congress
reflecting the will of practically the
whole bona-fide Labor movement COM
pletely disposes of the threat of con-
scription. 1t would be a foolhardy
faction indeed that would make the
attempt to force Prussianism on the
people of this country in face of the
clearly expressed hostility of the or
ganized industrial and political
strength of Labor"
The manifesto was definite and con-
vincing in its opposition to the cry for
CONSUMPTION of flesh and blood, but
boldly proclaimed the necessity for the
CONSUMPTION of wealth; it upheld the
principle of voluntaryism, and put
forth a strong demand for decent
wages for the soldiers and adequate
pensions for their wives and children /;
and it declared that the time had ar
rived when the people should know
what they were fighting for and the
terms upon which the allied govern
ments would be prepared to enter up
on peace negotiations.

THE MISSION OF LABOR

"lf we are to escape the fate which
has overtaken most of the warning
countries" says Louis B. Boudin, 1--WE
must go to the root of the matter, and
start a vigorous campaign of educa-
ton, designed to teach the working
class of this country the principles of
the class-struggle and to wean it away
from the bourgeois principle of Ma
tionalism, whose main office now is
to keep the workers of the world di-
Vided into separate groups competing
with each other in times of peace and
slaughtering each other in case of
war"

OF
HENRY DUBB

When Henry Dubb was little lad,
And preached Socialism to his dad.
His dad was poisonous against it, you
see,
Just exactly like my old dad used to
be.
He got slap to the side of the head
And the jokes he got down, and my!
how he read!
Then nav would say Socialism and
She got the slap instead of Henry or
the hired man.
His paw said "You must fight for your
country
And thus make peace on earth and all
be free"
My nav is Socialist thru and thru
From reading this you'd know | am,
My sister don't like to have me say
this,
But if she says more, I'll lend her my
fist.
Paw said, go ahead and make up a
good one, that's right;
| knew for rights my kids always
would fight.
Now I'll say something concerning
war.
Do you think it right to fight and see
friends no more?
Kiss them goodbye and thatll be the
last;
Very few reach home from that awful
blast
That makes the earth shake with
shower of shot and shell,
You'd just as well be in the place
called hell
AS to be in the trenches resting e'er
If nobody fights therell be no war.
Now I'll close my tablet and say no
more.

THE NATIONAL PLATFORM

To the National Platform Committee:
After much consideration and dis
cussou as individuals, in special com
mittee, and in meetings of the local,
Local Spokane No. submits as its
idea Of what the next national plat
form should be, the following recon-
mendations:
/. The platform should be brief
2. A clear, concise statement should
be made Of the nature Of the class
struggle, and why this struggle is be
coming more pronounced each year,
especially mentioning machine produc-
ton as an important factor.
3. A clear distinction should be
made between progressive or reform
measures and the one revolutionary
change on which the Socialist move
ment resistant is, the collective
ownership and democratic control of
natural resources and machine produc-
ton. In this statement the common
ownership Of land should be made
prominent, rather than concealed.
4. Omit all that part of former
platforms known as immediate de-
mands, though the explanation should
be made that Socialists are not of ne
cessity opposed to reform measures.
5. Call the attention of working
people everywhere to the misleading
and erroneous information that is
given by the newspapers, the churches
and the schools, in regard to every
working class revolutionary move
ment, and urge the workers to support
working class papers, schools and un-
ions.
6. Explain briefly the evolutionary
materialistic foundation of the Social
list movement, and show that this is
the cause of such opposition as is
shown by some of the churches to So
cialism.
7. Make an unequivocal declarati
in favor of internationalism as against
nationalism, and show how national
ism and a desire for commercial su-
premacy have brought on the greatest
war in history.
8. State the main purpose of the
Socialist movement, in the language
of Frederick Engels, to be: To accom-
plish the act Of universal emancipa-
ton is the historical mission of the
modern proletariat. To thoroughly
comprehend the historical conditions
and thus the very nature of this act,
to impart to the now oppressed prole-
tartan class a full knowledge of the
conditions and of the meaning of this
momentous act it is called upon to &C
complish this is the theoretical ex-
preston of the proletarian movement,
modern Socialism.
