SOCIALISM AS | HOPE"

The following is taken from the San Francisco Star:
 The optimism of Allan L. Ben son of Yonkers. who is the socialist party candidate for President, is not so noticeable in his prediction that he will receive 100000 votes as in his confidence that socialism would abolish war and establish forever "the rule of kindliness and the spi- Tit of helping the other fellow.
 Such a theory Of the power ot socialism is not borne out by exist ing conditions, says an exchange
 The movement was so powerful in Germany and France before the present war that some of it's enthu- sastic leaders were confident that serious international conflicts were no longer possible. German and French socialists often fraterniZed and talked as MT. Benson now talks. Yet when the call to arms was made they responded as ardently and with as little real acquaintance with the merits of the dispute as anybody else.
 Socialism does not preach brother hood more consistently than Christ ianity, and it has not been engaged in the work nearly so long. At its best, socialism is secular, with not many pretensions to motives loftier than policy and self interest.
 If religion, rooted in the inspira tion and dogma of nineteen cen turies was unable to keep a dozen so called christian nations from each others throats, what reason is there to hope for greater things rom modern social philosophy as to the ultimate aims of which few of its leading expounders are agreed?"
 That is a fair question. not very fairly put. There !e no tio,e at pre- sent for a contrast between social ism and christianity even if there may be any time. The two are so- tally different things. As the writer said socialism at it's best is secular Christianity is not of this wor'!. Socialism is an economic, and christianity a religious idea.
 Even at that we do not see that religion is founded upon any loft'er motives than socialism, even if the charge is true that socialism is a matter of policy and self interest.
 If we are right, one of the means whereby sinners are converted to re- pentance is the strong policy of gaining eternal reward and a gold en crown on the one hand, while they avoid damnation and eternal torment on the other. And it would appear to be an excellent policy and a practical self interest, for any per son who believed in it, to follow the rules and regulations which are de. -clared to have come down "as in spiration or as dogma.
 The writer of the comment upon socialism's limitations in Europe, infers that it has been, as such, a failure. But socialism has never been tried. The present day social ist has not socialism. He urges socialism. He cannot practice it.
 But if socialism" can be criti-

The Parisian. (Paris, Tenn.) 1907-1962, 1916-06-16
w. Park on Demand
OF Brotherhood

In the May issue of Chamber
lain's magazine. W. l.. Park,
vice-president of the Illinois
Central railroad, brings out some
significant points on the eight
hour basic" work day for
which the brotherhoods of rail-
way trainmen are contending.
In presenting the railroad side
of the matter Mr.. Park says,
among other things: An eight
hour day has been established in
some departments of railroad
work where the work is of such
character that it can be stopped
at a definite time. But train
service cannot be operated in
eight-hour shifts. The length of
a days work is dependent upon
a great many conditions not at
all affected by the rates of pay,
such as the distance between
The Parisian. (Paris, Tenn.) 1907-1962, 1916-06-16

the railroads should economic
by reducing salaries from the
top" Mr.. Park says that if the
entire salary of every officer of
all the railroads in the United
States. from the presidents down,
were eliminated it would only
amount to S44. 900, 900, and that
would be less than half of the
amount the brotherhoods are
asking the railroads to pay for
increased wages by their de-
mands"for an eight-hour day and
time and a half for overtime.

READY FOR CAMPERS

Good news for motorists who
desire to camp out has been an
nounced by the officials Of the
Panama California international
Exposition at San Diego. When
the 21st Regiment U. s. Infantry
left the Exposition for Mexico,
they left model camp with
tent frames, wooden walls and
floors intact. In addition to
these, there are many other con-
veniences found only in an up
to- date military camp, So many
requests have been received
from motorists who carry camp
ing outfits, asking for permission
to pitch camp on the Exposition
grounds, that favorable action
has been taken. No charge will
be made for the camping right.
The site given to the use of
campers is opposite the motor
demonstration field and only a
few hundred feet from the
Isthmus and is reached by en-
trance at the North gate. In
addition to this accommodation for
motorists, the Exposition is CIV
ing a bronze button to every
traveller who drives more thar
500 miles to the Exposition. ~
The Parisian. (Paris, Tenn.) 1907-1962, 1916-06-16

the number of tons of freight to
a train has been the principal
means by which the railroads
have been able to withstand as
we'll as they have the large in
creases in wages, accompanied
by reductions in their rates for
freight make possible this more
economical method of operation
the railroads have had to spend
millions for larger and more
powerful locomotives, for re-
ducing grades, and for other i'm
provements, which have also
lightened the work of the en-
ploves. !"
Mr.. Park also makes the point
that the public has benefited by
this increased efficiency and that
while the rate of return on rail-
road investments has been re-
duced, the average pay of the
train employee within the past
ten years has been increased
1873 per cent.
In reply to a suggestion from
|one of the brotherhood men that

terminals, the grades of the
road, the character and tonnage
of the load, and even by weather
conditions.
In answering the contentious
of the trainmen that they are
held" at sidings and other
points for hours, Mr.. Park says
that even though they do spend
time on sidings, that they are
being paid for such time just as
though they were performing
actual work.
Another point he brings out is
that the men choose their own
runs in most cases in the order
of seniority, and a great many
of the men deliberately select the
longer runs, preferring to work
IL, IA and Is hours on the days
they work, and to have two or
three days a week off, to work
ing 10 hours a day.
In answering the point ad-
vanced by the brotherhoods that
train tonnage has been increased,
Mr.. Park says that increasing
