trust.
The people want a change.
They demand a government
which is more responsive to the
forces which are shaping our
destinies : the educational, indus
trial, and religious forces. For
nine months Republican leaders
in the Senate have ridiculed and
denounced the President, abused
the league of nations, and Will
fled the work of the administra-
ton.
why has not Senator Over
man engaged these Senators in
debate and fight on the floor of
the Senate to defend the things
which our boys sacrificed and
died for in France, and which
the people in this country are so
dearly interested in?
Mr.. Wilson says the defeat of
the league of nations will break
the heart of the world. The
vicious assaults made in the Sen
ate on MIN and the league have
nearly destroyed his health. Is
it not time that North Carolina
should speak on the floor of the
senate its convictions, and its de-
termination to bring out of this
world crisis an understanding be-
tween civilized nations of the
earth which will guarantee the
settlement of their disputes with
brains, and not with bullets?
Il do not aspire to be merely
a blind follower, but a leader of
the new forces which are shaping
the destiny of the world, a pro-
gressive democracy, which
looks forward to the
future, and resolutely deter
mines to keep up the fight against
the vicious radicalism of Johnson,
the militarism of Wood, and the
reactionary leadership of Sena-
tors Penrose and Lodge. "-Ad

Advocates Trial of Hun Leaders.

If Hindenburg and Ludendorff are
guilty of offenses against humanity
they, and not some of their under
lings, should pay the penalty. It would
be a farce to let them go and to
convict their subordinates and It
would be a farce to try to impress
the German people with the inviolable
majesty of international law while
fearing to try leaders who are in po-
sition to arouse public clamor in
their behalf. BY all means let linden
burg and Ludendorff be among the first
to answer. They stand as heroes be-

would be more impressive to those fol-
lowers than the spectacle of their lead

G. Masaryk of the new CzechoSlo-
knows Russia He was in Russia dur
ing the revolution and at the begin
ming of the counter-reyolution which
put bolshevism in the saddle. He has
written of Russia and is accepted as
an authority on the subject. ! asked
him, What is bolshevism?" His an
swer was: 'fBolshevism is consistent
socialism"
Bolshevism is an old, untried
theory of government. It's object is to
secure a greater production and a
more just distribution. Socialism says
that men are without motive for eff
cient work today because they do not
get a fair share of the things they
produce; that the way to stimulate
production is to adopt common owner
ship. Under such a plan, they say,
every man would be working for him
self, in the sense that all would be
working for the state, and that as all
are an equal part of the state their
interests would be common and
mutual. The socialist says that by
working and doing as much as he
could he would be helping to shorten
the workday, because if all the people
of the world were at work they could
produce an abundance of everything
necessary for the worlds happiness
and comfort, every one would have
all he needed, no one would have
more than another and it would be to
the interests of each individual to
work to shorten his own wOrkday.
The program of socialism promises
10 destroy all private ownership.
There will be no such thing as private
property. No one will own land The
land, the factories, the railroads, the
mines, everything, will be owned in
common. The state will hold the title
TO everything, manage everything and
distribute the product. This plan
abolishes profits, rent and private cap
italism.

Few people will contend that this

greatest of the anarchists was the
great Greek philosopher Zeno, from
Crete, the founder of the stole philoso-
ply, who died 30 years 3. C. 1t is
disturbing to find dynamiters called
anarchists, and in the same breath

idealists that have ever. trod the

Money and Capital.

To understand this doctrine 1t is
necessary to clearly know the mean
ing of the word Capital" Many peo-
pie confuse the word capital with
the word money" These words have
totally different meanings. Money is
the metal or paper used by a govern
laent to make easy the exchange of
products. Without money the world
would go back to the barter system,
in which the man who had corn
traded it for meat, clothes, and the
others things he needed. Capital is
the unconsumed product of labor. In
other words, all of the food, cloth,
clothing, machinery, etc. in the world
IS its capital, just as a mans capital
is the food he has in the cupboard,
the clothes he hasn't worn out, the
money in the bank which represents
power to buy. 1t is the surplus. 1t
is the reserve.
Plato, the great Greek philosopher,
was one of the first of the socialists
In the republic of Plato we find
defense of state socialism. From
Plato to Lenine men have been urging
communism as a cure for the ills of
the world, as a remedy for wrong, as
ban means of realizing exact justice.
Modern socialism dates from the
Communist Manifesto" published in
1S4S, by Karl Marx and Frederick
Engels. Their outline of the socialist
plan seized upon the thought of the
world Since that day it has been
| gathering the dissatisfied of the world
! and grouping them in a class, develop
| ing what they term 'claSS con
| sciousness" Back of it has been an
insistent, uninterrupted propaganda
| which has reached every corner of the
| globe. Billions of leaflets, pamphlets,
! tracts and books have been circulated.
| Millions OF speeches have been made.
| Drawing rooms have been thrown
open to it, highbrows have professed

The bolshevism of Russia is pure
socialism-literal communism. At this
moment / am not writing of the meth
DDS of the bolsheviks. First, want
to make clear and simple their plan.
Bolshevism is an effort TO put into
practice the doctrine preached by
