Inconsistency in His
Peace Platform

Equally insidious is the quick-peace
campaign which Hillquit is now making
for Mayor of New York. September
%. at his ratification meeting, Hillquit
said that a demand for peace would be
the issue upon which the Socialists
yould depend for votes in his cam
paign.
Another strong point constantly made
by Hillquit in his peace campaign is
that Socialists oppose all wars. He
says:
1--WE Socialists say to you frankly
that in this campaign as in all cam
paigns now waged by US in the diff
ferent parts of the United States we
are definitely, candidly, frankly, de-
family, if you want, opposed to all
wars"
But that was before the Kaiser's
business obsessed him. In the Metro
politan Magazine" for February, 1915,
Hillquit says:
Socialists as a rule support wars
of national liberation or indepen-
dence. =. Wars of national de-
fence are tolerated by Socialists.
Belgium presents probably
the only case Of such invasion within
recent wears. Socialists rec
ognize that there may be even in
stances of a war for the preserva-
ton of their class interests or for
the broader interests of civilization"
But no now says Socialists oppose
all wars.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1917-10-28
Wilson Called a Traitor
Against the Loan

But perhaps the baldest attack on the
President that Hillquit ever sat
through without feeling single twinge
of Americanism was that expressed on
April at a great mass meeting for
peace in Carnegie Hall. From the plat
form from which Hillquit also spoke
Joseph D. Cannon said:
"Those responsible for getting US
into this war are guilty Of treason.
II is a betrayal so damnable that
those responsible for it will go down
in history AS black as Judas Iscariot
and Benedict Arnold, and | don't
care Whether they hold erec,tiUe
positions, parliamentary positions
or editorial places"
Clearly Hillquit does not stand be-
hind the President. Whom DOES he
stand behind?
AS the latest testimonial TO his re-
fusal TO support the government, Hill
quit refused TO subscribe to the second
Liberty Loan. 81 do not intend TO do
anything TO advance the war" he said
Is he for US or against US?
Besides being a smooth obstructionist
to the war efforts Of this country, Nor
ris HillQuit is also something Of a paci-
fist. AS 8 Socialist he opposes all war,
he says, but he wants quick peace
Let us see if Hillquit's pacifcism will
now stand the test of as he for US or
against us?"
To appreciate the sinister signifi-

Urges a Separate
Peace With Germany

Failing in his Stockholm plans, Hill
quit last May turned his attention to
the Conference for Democracy and
Terms Of Peace, the first meeting OF
which was held May 80. At that con-
ference, according to "The New York
Times" of May 81, Hillquit offered
resolution, which was adopted, demand
ing that the United States agree to
peace with no annexations and indemni-
ties, and make peace with Germany as
soon as Germany should stop her SUBJ
marine warfare. In other words, Hill
quit urged the United States to make
separate peace, stop our military
preparation, leave US dishonored before
our allies and make German victory
possible! The Kaiser could not have
done better! Is Hillquit for us or
against US?
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1917-10-28
Refuses to Stand Behind
The President ....

Another count against Hillquits
Americanism is his liberation OF attacks
on the good faith, sincerity and hon
esty of the President and his own
boast, many times repeated, that he
does not stand behind the President.
April 9, just after the declaration OF
war, Hillquit' said:
"The favorite phrase nowadays Is.
Stand behind the President We
Socialists as long as we remain
Socialists will never subscribe TO so
meaningless, so undemocratlc a
phrase by which the people of the
limited States are asked to surrender
their political birthright. (Great ap-
plause). In his speech before Con-
gress. smooth ard we'll turned as
usual, President Wilson calls atten-
ton to the fact that in the autoc-
racies Of Europe this war
was declared bye the ruling powers
without consulting the people OF the
respective countries. And that comes
from. the mouth of the man who
never consulted the masses OF the
American people.
Yet less than month before Hillquit
himself had done the very thing with
the Socialist party of which he accused
the President. AS member of the
National Executive Committee he hat
voted to call an emergency meeting a.
st. Louis, but himself admitted at the
time that although the constitution
did not give the National Executive
Committee authority to call a general
convention, he believed the plan would
meet with universal approval"
It is autocracy to exercise one:
powers as President, but if Germany
needs to know who her friends are in
this country Morris Hillquit may treat
the constitution of the Socialist party
like scrap of paper-"0ur Morris, the
Kaiser" as hi. former associates cal
him.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1917-10-28
While the Russian
Socialists Struggled

Hillquit has made much of the Rus
sian revolution, so much, in fact, that
he has constantly predicted similar
revolution in Germany, particularly il
the Allies will quickly make peace. He
seems always to be very sure Of what
Socialists in the Central Powers will
DO.
His interest in Russian socialism is
worth investigating. Upton Sinclair, in
THE New York Times" of May 25, 1917,
takes exception TO a statement by Hill
quit TO the effect that American So
cialists, watching the struggles of Rus
sian Socialists, have "wiseiy refrained
from attempting to influence their
course. In a struggle so grave and DEL
icate as that which now confronts
Russia the masses of the people must
be allowed to work out their own SAL
walton without unsolicited outside ad-
vice or interference"
Sinclair's comments on this need no
explanation. They were:
"The Germans, as we know, are
sending hundreds of pro-German
social revolutionists into Russia. and,
of course, they have unlimited mill
ions 20 spend upon their propaganda.
We are now reading in the
papers Of the half million dollars
which they intrusted 10 one single
agent in the United States in their
efforts TO tie up American munition
factories. Knowing as they do that
their last chance in this war lies in
the undermining Of Russia. we may
be sure that they are doing every
thing which their marvellous en-
cheney can suggest. And in the mean
time Comrade Hillquit proposes that
we American Socialists who see clear
" the peril not only TO Russian
Socialists but to the freedom Of al

Opposes Draft as
National Army Assemblies

Then the mayoralty campaign opened
Still Hillouit was against the conscrip-
ton act, though at that time soldiers
were beginning to go to camp. lie was
nominated on platform openly anti
war. anti-draft and anti-administra-
tion.
1--WE predict vote Of 10000 for
uillouit because of the dissatisfaction
on the part Of the people with the war,
which they consider unnecessary" said
the chairman Of the resolutions COM
,oittee at the nominating convention.
Dissatisfaction with conscription on
the part of the people who do not like
the idea of their sons being drafted Will
also increase the vote"
At the end of this meeting a tele-
gram was sent to Congressman London
"to Immediately introduce bill in
Congress repeating the consumption
act"
Moreover, Hillquit has said nothing
while his fellows in the campaign have
denounced the draft in a manner cal
culated to encourage assertions from
the National Army. At his ratification
meeting in Madison Square Garden
September % the Socialist candidate
for Controller said:
"The passage Of the CONSUMPTION
law gave the lie to all the pretexts
that this is war TO make the world
safe for democracy. Is it democra-
cy that permits the gaunt arms OF the
government to reach into the sane
tity of your home and take your
firstborn without your consent and
against your protest?"
On September 81 Hillquit again sat
silent at a meeting at which August
Claessen, another Socialist candidate,
said that CONSUMPTION was "the mos:
damnable importation from Prussian
civilization"
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1917-10-28
In 1915 Hillquit
Thought Differently

Yet Hillquit favored-in 1915, before
the Kaiser needed help-the Swiss sys-
TEN that takes men between the ages
Of twenty and forty-eight, instead OF
from twenty-one to thirty.
In February, 1915, Hillquit said in
"The Metropolitan Magazine;
"The Socialist ideal of military
organization is the popular militia
largely based on the principle
of the national militia of Switzerland.
Under that system all able-bodied
men between twenty and forty-eight
years are kept in military training
and can be relied on for the defence
Of the country in Gaze Of emergency"
But that was in February, 1915,
when the Germans were everywhere
victorious. Things looked different in
April, 1917. Was Hillquit then for US
or against us?
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1917-10-28
Opposition to Sending
Troops Abroad

Hillquit has trained with people who
did not want to send troops to Europe
He started to st. Louis, early in April,
representing Manhattan Socialists on a
programme which demanded "unchang-
ing opposition to military service ana
all forms of ornaments and national
campaign against the sending OF an ex-
peditionary force from the United
States, should war be declared" ..
When the Peoples Council was being
organized one Of his satellites also
said, while opposing conscription'
Sending conscripts to Europe is not
national defence, but mixing in the
quarrels Of outside nations
Hillquit even disapproved OF the en-
forcement of the draft law. In speech
September 80, at the New Star Casino.
he made it appear that the CONSUMPTION
law, one clause of which required reg
istered men to carry the registration
card and show it if required, was I'M
Justly enforced. Recalling another
time he had spoken in that hall, he
said:
az came into the hall and found
you sitting as now, discussing
political issues, exercising the con-
stitutional rights guaranteed 10
every citizen Of the United States,
but there was an air of terrorism
an air of oppression, an air that
made YOU think not of America and
your American candidates and pa
triots. but of Russia under the Car
and worse than that. And IN that
meeting these lawless bands OF SOL
diers and police officers insisted upon
making each and every one who IN
their Judgment was Of conscriptivee
age show the registration card, and
the holding of over hundred IN jan
until such cards were produced: NOT
a charge against any one. NOT
warrant against any one, not single
authority'in law"
Is a man who palliates violation OF
such a law for US or against US at this
time?

lev Is criminal. II IL. AFFIRM It.
But SO is the war, so is every part OF
II, so are both sides Of IT,"
On February 9 "The New York Call"
rrinted a proclamation from the Ma
tional Executive Committee Of the So
cialist party of America, with hiilquits
name at the head Of those signing it,,
denouncing the breaking of OF rela-
tions and urging Socialists to send
"telegrams or letters TO President Will
son. 70 the Senators and Congressman.
Demand that American citizens and
American ships be forbidden to enter
the war zone except at their own risk
"The New York Call" Of February 10
quotes Hillquit speaking at the New
Star Casino:
@So far from honoring US, war with
Germany would dishonor this nation
as long as history continues.
And the time will come when, II the
workers of this country are called TO
take I'D arms, to risk their HmDs
end lives. thew will say. Yes, we Will,
hut we will take them up not against
our fellow men, but for ourselves,
for liberty, for human CIVILIZATION
This statement may sound ike an
Idle threat. but it was not. Two months
later the Socialists at 81. Louis. driven
bv Hillquit himself, put plank into
their platform favoring mass action
AGAINST the enforcement Of draft law
"Mass action" means action by body
Of people to gain some end by force
Thus before this country entered the
war Hillquit was threatening revolt
against q possible law.
Meantime such Socialists asJ. G. Phelps
stokes Charles Edward Russell and W.
+ Walljng came out with a statement
announcing Germany and pledging their
LOYALTY TO America in case Of war. Hill
Quit did not DO so, and has never yet
made a fat-footed statement Of Ameri-
canism. He does not take stock IN
wrapping himself in the flag" sueh
vss the Morris Hillquit Of February
and March, 1917.
Where did he stand?
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1917-10-28

If Hillquit were merely against the
draft act alone. one might excuse his
actions on the ground that his opposi-
ton has become an obsession. But
aside from fighting the draft, ever since
the war started he has been making
statements calculated to impugn the
motives Of the government. In plain
language, Hillquit for the last seven
months has done and said many other
things tending to hinder the successful
prosecution of the war
Take, for example, his view of our
declaration of war. On the day the
President asked for a war resolution
he said at Carnegie Hall: 1--WE protest
against this needless, senseless war"
He sat by silent when another speaker
said: "Those responsible for getting the
United States into this war are guilty
Of treason"
In the st. Louis convention of the
Socialist party a week later he declared
that this country had been criminally
drawn into the war.
The majority resolution adopted
there, largely the work of Hillquit's
brain, said:
Eve brand the declaration of war
by our government as crime against
the people Of the United States and
against the nations of the world In
all modern history there has been no
war more unjustifable than the war
in which we are about to engage"
Was Hillquit for US or against us

had gone into war with Interior mo-
tives, Hillqut has said other things
to create distrust Of the government
resentment against II, dissatisfaction
with it. When he was refused pass
ports to the Stockholm conference he
attacked the good faith OF the gov
eminent thus:
"The question seems to me which
will be asked on the other side will
be whether the people Of the United
States, or rather the government OF
the United States, sincerely wants
any peace at ALL"
When the Peoples Council was
formed, early in June, Hillquit spoke
at its meetings, at one of which he was
decidedly the lion. The platform Of the
conferences thus misrepresented the
draft lava clear attempt to create
distru.t Of the government and proba-
bly, hinder the registration Of draft
eligibles.
There is grave danger that under
the consumption law millions who
are not called for military service
may be compelled to do any kind OF
work without protection OF labor
laws and under conditions which the
military or executive may force
them"
