HOOVER SETTLES
PEOPLES HASH

Food Administrator Hoover perpe-
trated his greatest joke since be-
coming food controller
He modified the 100000 retail
merchants in a campaign to reduce
the cost of living by solemnly pledg-
ing themselves to stop profiteering,
and then consecrate their business
and their own vast abilities to the
task of palming off on the working
masses cheap ana bulky substitutes
for the meat and wheat foods which
the workers must have in order to
reproduce from day to day the la
Dor power.
The retailers pledged Food Con-
troller Hoover that they would push
the sale of such choice nutritious
substances as prunes, cornmeal, oat-
meal, rice, hominy, peas, barley, as
wholesome substitutes for wheat and
white flour products and vegetables.
The retailers also agreed to cut
out more than one delivery a day,
thus making The workers wives
walk to the grocery between times.
The retailer patriots tied string
to their profits abstention pledge
They have got to live even in these
days of storm and stress, and they
can't of course live without profits
So, as a reward for working off
these delectable commodities on the
people, they will limit themselves,
so they have told Hoover, to a
reasonable living profit"
Farther along in their pledge they
describe this reasonable living pro-
fit" as a profit not greater than
prevails in normal times"
Thus does Hoover mobilize the
food profiteers and pirates to pro-
tect the long-suffering public from
the self-same food profiteers and
pirates.

SCHOOL BOYS STRIKE
AGAINST MILITARISM

NEW YORK.-Between 500 and
500 students of~De Witt Clinton and
Commerce high schools struck
against the system of compulsory
military service now demanded of
them, and against an extra hour
which has lately been added to their
curriculum.
Down with the Welsh-Slater sys-
tem"-which established military
training in the schools-and abolish
long hours" were the battle cries Of
the strikers, most of whom were I'M
der l6 years Of age.
Three Of the number arrested,
however, were above the age limit,
and these were promptly hustled to
the West Side court on charges Of
disorderly conduct, The others were
taken to the children's court as ju-
venile delinqucnts.

HILLQUIT POLLS HUGE
STRAW VOTE IN OLD
PARTY STRONGHOLD

A straw vote taken in the lower
section of the Bronx, surrounding
149th street and Willis avenue,
district that always has been con-
sidered one of the strongest Demo-
cratic sections of the Bronx, resulted
as follows:
Hylan, 260; Hillquit, 221; Mitchell
SO; Bennett, 81.
For some time this district has
been considered one of the safest for
the old parties in the city. 1t al
ways has been largely Democratic
and in addition, absolutely Socialist
proof"
The result of the straw vote.
with Hillquit running a strong sec
ond to the Democratic nominee, is
considered as significant of the
enormous strides that the party of
the working class is making in this
campaign.

HAILED
AS PEOPLES ONE
SURE CHAMPION
William Bayard Hale, Wilson's Biog-
rapher, Joining Socialist Party,
Lauds City Ticket

William Bayard Hale, longtime
friend and official biographer of
President Wilson, and editorial as
sistant to Wilson in compiling "The
New Freedom" has applied for
membership in the Socialist party,
and will vote for Morris Hillquit and
the rest of the city ticket.
In his preface to "The New Free
dom" President Wilson says: 81 did
not write this book at ALL 1t is the
result of the editorial literary skill
of William Bayard Hale, who has
put together here in their right Sc
quence the more suggestive portions
of my campaign speeches"
Hale's pregenitors were among the
early English colonists. He has
long been prominent member of
the Sons of the American Revolu-
ton. He has been lecturer at
Oxford university.
Hale issued this statement:
Il know no way in which citi-
zen of New York who tfeasurers its
sacred trad lions of liberty and
who desires to make our land again
safe for democracy can do his bit
more effectively than by voting for
Morris Hillquit for mayor Both the
old parties have become subservient,
body and soul, to the overweening
assumptions of the capitalistic
classes.
"a vote for the Socialist ticket in
New York on November will serve
notice on the group which is today
assuming to administer our affairs
that the people of the United States
are citizens, not subjects; that free
dom of opinion, Of speerh and Of the
press for whirh our forefathers
fought still is to us a precious heri-
tage, and that the sound common
sense of loyal patriots will not en-
dure delirious persecution of free
men such as had not been ventured
upon by any chesty oligarchy, poll
teal or religious, since the days of
the witchcraft delusion.
THE indignation. Of old-time
Americans over these measures is
unspeakable. The silent vote that
will be thrown for the Socialist can
didates in November will astonish
those temporarily in office. Some
of us, of old American stock, are
not concerned that cur votes be ST.
lent. |, for one, am willing to shout
mine through the biggest megaphone
l can handle
Mr.. Hillquit is, at the moment,
the most striking figure in Ameri-
can politics, representative Of OPP
position to the capitalistic system
which has engulfed our beloved land
in war.
Every vote for the Socialist ticket
in New York this November will
ring the bell which registers the
demand of Americans for faithful
ness to our ancient ideals; will has
ten the dawn of the peace which all
the world desires, and will ring
out joyful peal of hope for the
splendid American boys who are
about to be thrown into the mad
cauldron of European politics."

NOT GUILTY
Socialist Party Position on War
Upheld BY Federal Jury at
Grand Rapids
(By J. Louis EngdahD
Especial Correspondence

CHICAGO, live are out of the
shadow of doubt The position of
the Socialist Party on the war is
within the law
That is the meaning of the verdict
of "Not Guiltyw returned by fed
eral jury at Grand Rapids, Mich,
in favor of Adolph Germer, National
Secretary of the Socialist Party, and
ten other defendants.
For four months the gathering
clouds of uncertainty have been
growing darker and darker. The
very evident plans of the national adj
ministratin to declare the Socialist
Party, with it's 100000 members and
one million voters. an outlaw organ
ization, seemed to gather Roadway.
1t was in June that blow was
struck directly at the National So
cialist Party, at it's Emergency St.
Louis Socialist Convention, at the
distribution of its literature, by the
return of an Indictment in the fed
eral courts of Michigan at Grand
Rapids against National Secretary
Germer, of Chicago, and ten local
Socialists and nom Socialists, charg-
ing them, through the distribution of
literature, with having conspired to
defeat the purposes of the conscrip-
ton act and to discourage registra-
ton and volunteering.
Now comes a federal jury of IL
men, picked from the ordinary walks
of life, for the most part farmers,
and declares that the Socialist 'eWar
Proclamation" and the leaflet 1.-THE
Price We Pay" are not Unreasonable"
and not seditious," and that it is
not conspiracy against the gov
eminent for Socialist and non-So-
cialists to distribute this literature.
During the trial copies of The
American Socialist, containing
front page display of the party's
"War Proclamation and advertise
ments of the proclamation leaflet
and "The Price We Pay were flaunt-
ed in the faces of the jurors, parad
ed before them SO they would never
forget, and the verdict come back,
Not Guilty"
It cannot be too strongly en-
phasized that the indictments were
originally secured as the result of
well planned anti-Socialist campaign
conducted by the daily press of
Grand Rapids, during which the gov
eminent prosecutor came in for his
share of cudgeling for not respond
ing quickly enough and doing his
share to carry out the carefully con-
ceived and diabolical program.
The verdict was a heavy wallop in
the face for every organ of reaction
that sets itself up as the mouth
piece Of the established order and
the spokesman for things as they
claim they should be.
That verdict left in it's wake a
crowd of sickly, plutocracy-inspired
editors in Grand Rapids, Mich, who
could not possibly have felt worse
if the Socialists had carried the city
overwhelmingly in a duel contest.
The Associated Press carried the
sad news in as few words as possible
to every sheet in the land, and these
all promptly buried what the masses
of the people were waiting to learn,
either in the back pages or in the
waste basket.

THE PRESIDENT ON PEACE
(From the Democratic Campaign
Committee.)

How can Americans differ about
the safety of America? l, for my
part, am ambitious that America
should do greater and more diff
cult thing than the great nations
on the other side of the water have
done. In all the belligerent coun-
tries men without distinction of
party have drawn together to ac-
complish a successful prosecution of
the war. Is it not a more difficult
and more desirable thing that all
Americans should put partisan pre-
possessions aside and draw together
for the successful prosecution of
peace? | covet that distinction for
America; and | believe that America
is going to enjoy that distinction.
