CLEANER REVIEWS
THE LATEST BOOK
Of PAUL KESTER
Mt. Vernon Man Has Inter-

Rev. l.. W. Mulhane, who writes
under the pen name of r. C. Cleaner,
has this to say in the current issue of
The Columbian, about Paul Kesters
latest book:
kester's Book
little book, conservative De.
mocracy," has reached my desk; it is
from the pen of Paul Kester, play.
wright, poet and novelist, but rather
a surprise that Paul should enter the
field OF political reconstruction, yet
there are many good things in the lit
tie book-some sound and sane
truths that need to be emphasized in
these days of rabid ideas. The book
has found favor with the American
Constitutional League and an edition
OF $4,000 will soon be printed for dis
tribution in and about Milwaukee
alone. Perhaps 1t may stir Berger
and his followers-at least perusal
OF 1t will give them food for thought.
The author says:
Socialism Devoid Of Humor
Like autocracy, Socialism is total.
ly devoid of humor. 1t is full of cant,
catch words and cheap and obvious
hypocrisy of brotherhood. It is per-
meated by restlessness, excitement,
egotism and bitter fanaticism."
His views score very severely an-
tocracy and socialism and he claims
that socialism is the offspring of au-
tOcracy, In fact is autOcratic itself.
The true medium is democracy,
which like Christianity, ia a perfect
and complete philosophy Of life. He
thus pays his respects to paternal-
ism:
INK flows in its veins rather than
warm human blood. Paternal-
ism would standardize conduct and
would even prescribe limits to
thought If it could.'
There are many good thoughts
scattered here and there in the book
and while all readers may not agree
with his propositions. still, as whole
the work Is commendable and viii
do good. 1t reaches some of the
points already touched upon I'm the
previous paragraph Of this column
the crying need to stand again on the
old-time rock Of the Constitution and
as he says.
1--WE must resolutely put aside the
Establishments of autocracy and all
the plausible sophistries of Socialism
and cleave to true, temperate and
simple democracy, for therein abides
the hope OF the world"
We wish the book wide reading
and congratulate the author on his
successful entry into new field af.
ter his many successes I'm other ave-
| nues of literary work.
