DR.. BUTLER ON SOCIALISM.
BY DIR. FRANK CRANE.
Copyright, 1912

One of the ways the college man
can be of service to the community
lis by clear thinking. Being outside
great game, he ought to see things
more clearly than those in the tur-
MOL of doing. He can give us an
occasional definition.
And of definitions the world is in sore
hunger.
Nicholas Murray Butler president
! clarity defined socialism: whether
with truth is for each to judge.
But certain it is that what we need
most of all in these postwar days
of unsettled ideas is to know pre-
cisely what socialism means.
Socialism" he said. "in the large,
general. and vague sense of the word,
means simply social reform. In that
sense every intelligent and forward
stepping manor woman is a social
ist."
When we are discussing the ques-
ton let us be sure what we are talk
ing about. Is it this, or the follow
ing?
Socialism. in the strict and scien-
tific sense of the word. is. however,
something quite different from this.
, 1t involves not social reform. b 1T po-
litical and social revolution. 1t is the
name for definite public policy.
which is in fat contradiction to
American policy and American faith.
Socialism. says DR.. Butler. rests
upon three assumptions.
First. that all of mans efforts.
both past and present, are to be in
his desire for wealth." Which, of
course. is Grass materialism.
Second, in the struggle for wealth
men are divided into permanent class
es. those who employ and those who
labor. and between those classes
there is and should be a class war,
to be carried on to the bitter end.
This doctrine of class struggle is the
savage teaching of Karl Marx, a man
whose consuming passion was hate.
trines of Marx which Lenin and Trot-
sky have been applying in Russia for
a year and a half past. with such
terrible results.
"capitalistic" system 1.-The rich are
getting steadily richer and steadily
fewer. while the poor are getting
steadily poorer and steadily more nu-
merous." This assumption" he goes
on to say. lis easily disposed of by
the facts which show that as applied
in America these two statements are
absolutely false. Ours is a land in
which more than 100000 of men.
women and children have just now
subscribed to liberty bonds. 1t is a
land with more than 100000 dwell
ings occupied by about q, 000, 900 fam
lilies. 1t is a land in which fully g.
100000 families own their own homes
without incumbrance. while 100000
own their homes subject to mortgage.
1t is a land whose total wealth is
now not less than 1925. 000. 900, 900, and
in which the distribution of that
wealth is steadily becoming more
equitable and more satisfactory I'M
RI hn n rin iYln hot
have guided American life so long
;6ld so WELL"
So there you have it. II what DIR.
Butler says is not true, at least it is
plain, definite and understandable.
which is the first essential in the in
telligent discussion of any subject
whatever. and quite unusual in the
discussion of this one.

Scheidemann Sehemed.-

The German government, headed by
Philip Scheidemann, had planned to
refuse to sign the peace treaty and to
permit the allied troops to march into
Germany as far as the IGlbe, where it
would be attacked by strong German
forces. the Danzig correspondent of the
Tageblatt declares in a dispatch de-
scribing the details of a secret plan to
create a separate state in northeastern
Germany.
The plan failed because Of jealousies
and differences of opinion between the
government and the army leaders, the
correspondent says.
"a report from Geneva Thursday night
said Herr Scheideman had arrived in
Switzerland after crossing the frontier
on foot)
The last proposal made by the con-
spirators planning to oppose the allies.
it is said, was to ask Poland to combine
with eastern Germany in the formation
of an independent republic. The offer.
it is declared, was rebuffed by the Poles.
who asked why it had not been offered
ten years ago

BERLIN, Thursday. June Is. (by the

To add to the solemnity of the oc-
casion, tomorrow is the feast of st.

Rigid Rule Set Aside.

Feeling Against Fall Amendment.

Feeling in said to be particularly
strong In presidential quarters against
the resolution of Senator Fall of New
Mexico. to declare a state of peace
with Germany, which is characterized
in these responsible quarters as hav-
ing the effect of allying the United
States with Germany and placing the
country in a position of contempt
that no nation ever suffered. It is
the Presidents belief. according to
reliable sources. that not more than
handful Of people in America will
approve such resolution,

American Experts Prevail.

The length Of the peace conference
is regarded. it is said. as beneficial
on the whole. as the long discussion
brought about a fuller understanding
among the nations. There is special
pride in the fact that the views of
the American experts usually pre-
vailed. probably because the United
States had no selfish interests in
volved in the difficult questions set
tied 1t is also held that sinister
influences played comparatively little
or no part in the results Of the con-
ference

Turkish Situate.

Concerning the mandate Of the
United States in Turkey. the Presi-
dent Is known to hold that he had no
right to make any promises and that
the most he could do was to present
the subject to the people at home.
One of the main reasons for the
proposed American mandate in Con-
stantinople. it is pointed out, is that
it would keep Constantinople out of
European politics and keep the Black
sea open for the worlds commerce.
