Reviewing last weeks election
throughout the United States, it is
difficult TO see how even an ardent
Socialist can draw much comfort
from the Socialist vote.
Interest centered on New York Of
course. Hillquit, the Socialist ran
third, getting less than half as many
votes as Judge Hylan and about TO-
600 fewer than Mayor Mitchell. When
the Hillquit supporters raised their
$10O, 900 election fund throughout the
country, they claimed it would put
Hillquit across" They werea count
ing on victory, but are consoling
themselves with the big increase
over the Socialist vote Of four years
ago.
The vote was about four times as
great, for It Increased from about
81 1000 to 1S9, 900. but it is absurd to
claim this was due to the growth of
the Socialist cause. The brainiest
men have openly disowned the party,
and this vote represents the combi-
nation Of all the ro-Germans, radi-
cal Socialists, pacifists and discon-
tented voters Of New York.

interesting election. Always a strong
Socialist center, a vigorous effort
was made to set control OF the city
