COLLEGE SOCIALIST
IS WORST" COLLINS
Lecturer Points Out That
Followers of Marx Are
Not of Working Glass.
SUGGESTS REMEDY
Advocates Education and
Legislation to Aid La
Dor Generally.

Socialism in theory and in &C
tion has nothing in common will
organized labor" said Peter w. Col
Inns, anti-socialist lecturer, at thu
Knights of Columbus Student Home
Saturday afternoon. 1T is for.
eign to the ideal of labor and
not a single authority from Marx
Engles. and Liebknecht to Kautzky
Lenin and Trotzky ever came from
the working classes.
There are two dangerous types
of socialists; the worst sort is the
parlor bolshevists in our colleges and
universities, who under the guise OF
sociology, economics, political science
and philosophy. poison the minds Of
their students with dangerous doc
trines. The other type is the soap
box orator, the I. w. w., the wood
alcohol politician, who stands on the
street corner and breaches his doc
trines to the workers as they pass.
His sole purpose is to arouse class
hatred.
Mr.. Collins an Authority.
Mr.. Collins is probably in a better
position than anyone else in America
to know to what extent rev.
olutionary ideas have taken hold Of
the people. He has travelled 100000
miles in a speaking tour of the larg-
er cities Of the United States, and has
spoken to more than five million peo-
pie, in the last five years. He has
served as secretary of the Interna-
tional Brotherhood Of Electrical
Workers, editor of the Electrical
World for eight years, organizer for
the American Federation of Labor, in
dustrial expert for the United States
during the war, member Of the Illi-
nois Industrial Commission, and ex-
pert witness for the state Of New York
in the recent contest over the seating
of five Socialist members of the legis-
lature.
Mr.. Collins, when asked for his so
luton of the industrial and social
strife In the country today, said, I'VE
have to get back Of and carry out the
spirit of the ten commandments. We
must become a world of brotherhood
instead of one of class strife and ha-
tired. Socialism's main appeal is to
class hatred and revolution. The
problem must be solved through in
telligeat organization, education and
legislation Labor must organize
against socialism. Through education
we must educate the masses against
radical propaganda, and through leg
islation organized labor can remedy
the industrial and social conditions
which give rise to the radical element
in the masses.
Socialism Well Organized.
Socialism is scientifically organ
lied. Victor Berger was sent to Con-
gress from Wisconsin because 1000
men volunteered to distribute social
ist literature on the steps of every
home in Milwaukee every Sunday
There are 1O,00O, 900 who are read
ing socialist newspapers every week.
There are $50 such papers printed in
English and about lbs in foreign Ian
guage. They are all thriving"

"a Silvis Shop Mems union for
aouroval tonight at the Industrial
Mi in Rock Island.
Some planks have been stricken
~ and various others have been
changed somewhat since the last
convention on April 80. The plat
firm brought up at that time re-
ceited considerable opposition. and
me platform committee was in
structed to make changes.
Nearly four hundred delegates
.re expected to be present in the
invention tonight. Those eligible
are f,e delegates each from the 70
unions affiliated with the Tri-City
t'ec ,tion and as many represent
.,ives as are cared to be sent by
tho Arsenal Federation and Silvis
Sbon Mems union. Every dele
eate must come with proper ere
dentials, or admittance to the con-
,eptiou will be refused. Delegates
were elected by the locals the lat
Ter usrt Of March and the session
tonight will be the third held since
the organization of the party. The
nrinc.pal change made at the sec
ond convention was changing the
name from the Tri-City Independ-
ent Labor Party to the Independent
Labor Party of Illinois and Iowa.
The reason for the change, it was
said, was to allow the party oppor-
mnity to grow by branching out
into various smaller cities in ada
cent districts in Illinois and Iowa.
The change also contemplates max
ing the partj power. especially in
Rock Island End Cook counties.
Object in Organizing.
Leaders in the movement de-
clare that the purpose and objects
Of the new political group is to en-
list all workers regardless of their
Affiliations with labor unions into
the ranks of the party in view of
electing municipal and state tick
cts, but to keep out Of the national
field until the party becomes a
force throughout the country. In
the national case the party will
follow the policy of the American
Federation of Labor by concentrat-
ing the vote to friends of labor and
endeavoring to bring about the de-
feat of enemies of labor legislation.
