SOCIALISTS WHO ARE
 RIGHT

It is certainly of significance that three such prominent Social ists as Clarence DarrOw, Charles E. Russell and Bouck White should come out in favor of the war and on the side of the allies, and each of them from his pecu- liar standpoint,
 Mir. Darrow, speaking at Min neapolis recently said: No coun- try has ever been so right as the United States is today. 1t is war to preserve civilization, human liberty, and democracy of the whole world, including Ger many. Every reasonable human being knows it is not Wall street war"
 Mr. Russell was expelled from the Socialist party because he accepted an appointment on the Root commission to Russia, and is now on his return giving pow erful testimony against our ene mics and heartening talk for Rus sia. He bitterly condemns the traitOrOus talk of men who have enjoyed American protection in their punishment and now in Russia are retailing vile islanders against our government. As to members of congress and others who are doing, he says, "Pots- dams dirtiest work" by advo- eating peace conventions' and "peace leagues. Il come home to find that at the worst possible moment the devil himself could devise this nation is listening to a horde of traitors, German agents, selfish politicians, and chicken hearted peace at any price babbling a lot of stuff loaded with the deadIiest peril for America and Russia y
 Bouch White, recently out of his third term in prison since the war for his extreme radical ac- tions, says: Tn asking my fel- low malcOntents to support the war l shall not be accused of jingOism or faint heartedness.' He denounced those who foment strikes and food riots, etc.; and says: "Could destiny play us a more terrific April fool than to bring us out of this cataclysmic era with nothing but our stand ard of living protected?' In war time strikes have a treasOnabl, squint. It may be the most jus tifable strike ever pulled off, but twill be cartooned as a paid for move to give aid and comfort to the enemy.'
 All of these men have been peace advocates. Their action is remindful of the three great abolitionists of the civil war pc riod - Garrison, Phillips and Sumner-who were noted advo- cates of peace. All became champions of war for the Union.
