PLACING IT RIGHT

The owners of public utilities such
as street cars and electric power and
light systems their political servants
sure to holler Socialism" and Com
munism" when confronted with figures
that show public ownership of such
service agencies to be of great benefit
to the communities they serve. Pri-
vate ownership of public utilities car
ries with it the opportunity for toe
much domination and rates in excess
of what the charges should be. EX-
amples of that are not lacking. in fact
they are altogether too common
Shown up, then comes the hOller Of
''Socialism" especially, from the lob
byists. fiXers, publicity agents, and
other representatives of the private
interests.
A good definition of socialism and a
good reply to the utilities crowd comes
from Father John A. Ryan, director
of the National Catholic Welfare con-
ference with headquarters at Wash
ington. The Catholic church has been
the foe of socialism for generations.
DR.. Ryan is one of the officials of
the Public Ownership League of Amer
lea. A friend of Father Ryan's wrote
him asking for an explanation of the
seeming inconsistency in Father Ryan
being identified with an organization
engaged in the propagation of the doc
trine of socialism when the Catholic
church is opposed to socialism.
Dr. Ryan's letter follows:
NATIONAL CATHOLIC WELFARE
CONFERENCE
1872 Massachusetts Avenue N. w.
Washington, ID. G.
November 3, 1881.
The person who asked you how you
could justify the presence of my name
in the list of officers of the Public
Ownership League of America in view
of the POpe's declaration that a good
Catholic could not at the same time
be true Socialist, must be either
ignorant or intellectually dishonest Or
given to sloppy thinking.
The only public ownership which
this organization advocates is owner
ship of those industries known as pub
lie utilities, street railways, public
light and power concerns, etc. OF
course, you can call these proposals
socialstc if you like. and even COM
munistic, but that does not make
them so.
Socialism means public ownership
and operation of all or of practically
all of the instruments of production
and that is the kind of economic doc
trine which our present Holy Father
condemns i'm the Encyclical from

Michigan, will tell how valuable
from an economic standpoint a pure

RECREATION SCHOOL
C~ULBERTSON, MAR. l6

At the request of farm groups
and community leaders, the Mon
tana Extension service has secur-
ed Miss Ella Gardner, recreation
specialist, Children's bureau, Wash
ington, D. C. to hold return one
day recreation training schools at
Sidney, March 14-15; at Culbertson,
March IS; and at Forsyth, March
10, according to ]. c. Taylor, di-
rector, Montana Extension service.
Farm groups at Wibaux have asked
that a similar school be held there
and March IS has been selected as
the date.
This is the third time Miss Gard
ner has conducted these training
schools in Montana At Sidney she
is this year reserving March Is
so that conferences with local
groups may be held to facilitate
the extension of the recreational
training to as large a number as
possible.
AS expressed in the requests for
the schools, there are localities in
practically every county where the
only form of entertainment is dane
ing, because reduced incomes pre-
vent taking advantage of the rec
r~eational facilities of distant towns.
The need for good wholesome en-
tertainment for children, for the
family, or for groups of various
sizes which gather solely for rec
reation or for other purposes, was
emphasized in the requests. The
training which Miss Gardner will
offer is designed to fill these needs.
The school at Culbertson is open
to two delegates from each Home
Demonstration club, All club, Fed
Grated Women's club, Farmers I'm
ion chapters, and other similar
organizations.
