Camp Travis San Antonio, Texas
April ls.-The fact that the cost
of living in San Antonio is unusually
high. coupled with the extremely
crowded condition OF the city with
reference to the housing Of visiting
families, as compared to the other
smaller cities of Texas and Oklaho-
ma has led the commanding gen
eral of the Nineth Division at Camp
Travis to take steps to discourage
families Of men in his command
coming to San Antonio. Directly, the
effort is being made to discourage
families Of enlisted men reliant upon
the soldiers small pay and the gov
ernmtnt allowance in coming to san
Antonio
There is no certainty as to the
delivery Of allotment checks. AS a
result the fanatics OF many enlisted
men have suffered from hunger and
cold. In many instances they have
made calls upon local charities
which have been unable to handle
the large number Of applicants. Al
the Red Cross headquarters an
nouncement has been made that
chapters of the Red Cross in the To-
caIities from which men come are
responsible for these people.

Frequently families are grouped to-

There is "a determined period as
to the number of weeks any soldier

their husbands or fathers have been

sPARoo, PATRIOTIC SOCIALIST
HOLDS ALooF FROM PARTY

John Spargo. the Socialist writer
and lecturer, who left the American
Socialist party on account of its pro
German attitude Of hindering the
government in vigorous prosecu
ton Of the war declares he doesn't
see any reason as yet for intelli-
gent Socialists who were loyal to
the principles of Socialist interna-
tionalism to return to the Socialist
party of America, or have any con
fidence in it,
At the St Louis convention OF
Socialists last year Mr.. Spargo was
one Of the minority who criticized
the action of the party in refusing
to stand by the president in his war
policy 1t was then that he left
the party Just before leaving the
city for a short rest at his home in
Vermont Mr. Spargo pointed out
tliat there was growing signs of dis
affection in the ranks Of American
Socialists. says the New York
Times.
From every quarter Of the coun-
try he said, come evidences of
this revolt. For example, few
days ago while | was in Chicago a
number of very prominent Social
lists called upon me and assured me
that they were carrying on a win
ming fight in the local movement
against the war policy adopted at
st. Louis. l was asked by a delega-
tion if | would not agree to address
a meeting OF a hundred or more in
fluential and active Socialists who.
while formally siding with the ma
jority had come to realize the trag-
ic mistake made by the party. Dur.
ing the past four or five weeks |
have been literally besieged with
such invitations, not only from So,
cialists all over the country Branch
es Of the party are passing resolu-
tions daily, calling for the abandon
mcnt of the position taken by the
st. Louis convention, and for the
adoption of the policy which I pro
posed year ago
"This is all very well and encour-
aging as far as it goes. There is,
however no reason as yet for intel
ligent Socialists who are loyal to
the. principles of Socialist interna-
tionalism, and therefore loyal to
