WHERE ARE THE SOCIALISTS
GOING?

Why have so many of the socialists
in the United States deserted their so.
cialistic ideas? For years they have
preached the doctrine Of a collective
society, not always with success but
always, as we thought, with sincerity.
Now that the war has brought home
even to conservative minds the advant.
ages Of their theories, loyal citizens ev.
erywhere see that the country must act
as state, not as collection of in.
dividuals; they see also-what may
prove more important vision-that
even when peace returns, the country
must think and act as "A state for the
good of the whole community. In the
interest of the state, manufacturers and
farmers now submit to government
control of their pursuits, the house
keeper and the grocer submit to gov.
ernment check of the consumption Of
food; and men and women accept gov.
ernment direction as to what military
or other service they should undertake.
At such a moment il would be the most
natural thing in the world for the sin.
cere socialist to encourage these disposi.
tions toward fuller idea Of statehood.
and to make these dispositions perma.
nent after the war.
But are the socialists encouraging
these symptoms of a growing state?
Some of them are-but they first resign
from the socialist party. And doubtless
some Of them are encouraging these
symptoms while still remaining in the
socialist party. But the socialist of
whom we hear most nowadays is pri.
marily opposed TO a war with Germany
and in order TO make his opposition ef.
fective he is sacrificing even his social.
ism-he is behaving frankly as an an.
archist. He knows that II war must be
waged, II is most effectively waged un.
der the system Of universal service: but
since he could not prevent this war. he
seems 10 be doing what he can To see
that We do not wage il effectively. He
knows that cooperation between labor
and capital. between railroads and the
government, between food producers and
food consumers is a sign Of increased
intelligence and increased efficiency IN
the state; therefore he refuses his aid
to any such socialmiuded progress
II he no longer Is loyal 20 his own
ideals, 20 what or TO whom is he loyal,

NO FLAGS FOR WILHELM.

one OF the most poignant commen-
taries on the German war that has ever
appeared in print is found in a little
news item that came from Amsterdam
the other day. 1t tells Of a recent visit
Of the kaiser to Brussels on his way
to the Flanders battle front. Before
Wilhelm's arrival, the German military
authorities asked the people of the city
to display flags in honor of the em.
peror's visit
Instead, they remained indoors, and
drew the window blinds, on which they
inscribed: Closed for national mourn.
ing The streets were deserted except
for the soldiers and police"
What an appropriate welcome for the
Prussian kaiser! An empty city, CLOSED
for mourning" with Grape instead of
flags. II was a perfect response TO the
treatment that Germany has accorded
Belgium. 1t is such a welcome as the
imperial autocrat might fittingly receive
in any city of Europe outside his own
dominlons-and inside them, too, when
the German people wake up. 1t typifies
the whole worlds opinion of Wilhelm
and of his military satellites and the
sort of warfare they wage, and the ma
tional ideals they represent.
II is an eloquent testimonial to the
appalling moral isolation of Germany to-
day. The ruler who boasts himself as
the vice-regent of God, the special rep.
resentative of the Almighty on earth,
has become the majority Of mankind
an object of horror and loathing, in
which people share as long as they
tolerate his authority and do his Will
