We can defend America only If
we hold fast to the principles OF

to name any like period in the

so many and so great steps have

Allan Benson Dies;
Sought Presidency
As Socialist in 1916
Former Managing Editor
Of D. c. Poper Had Plan
To Prevent War

Allan L. Benson, So, author and
former managing editor of The
Washington Times and the Socialist
Party'S nominee for president OF
the United States in 1916, died yes
terday of coronary thrombosis in
Yonkers, N. Y, the Associated Press
reported.
Born in Plainwell, Mich, Mr.. Ben
son was educated in the public
schools of that State and began
newspaper work in 1890. After seven
years on the editorial stats of papers
in Chicago, Salt Lake City and
San Francisco. he became assistant
managing editor of the Detroit
Journal.
In 1901 he was made managing
editor of the Detroit Times, and
in 1906, managing editor of the
Washington Times, which position
he relinquished the following year
to write on political and economic
subjects for Pearson's Magazine and
other publications.
Soon after the outbreak of the
World War Mr.. Benson attracted
attention through his plan to pre-
vent war. He held that a war of
aggression should be declared only
by vote of the people. Under the
scheme, all voting for war would
be compelled to take up arms. To
the Government. however. he would
have left the initiative in resisting
invasion.
Two years after his unsuccessful
presidential campaign under the
aegis of the Socialist party, Mr.. Ben
son resigned from the party because
of its attitude toward the Govern
ment in time of war. With William
F.. Cochran of Baltimore he founded
in 1918 the Reconstruction Maga-
zine.
Among Mr. Bensons writings were
Socialism Made Plain, 1.-The Usurp-
ed Power of the Courts" The Truth
About Socialism, Our Dishonest
Constitution" "A Way to Prevent
War" Inviting War to America
The New Henry Ford The Story
of Geology" and biography of
Daniel Webster
Mr.. Benson had made his home
in Yonkers in recent years. He was
married in 1899 to Mary Hugh of
Toledo, Ohio. They had four chill
dren.

Cleveland Plain Dealer
Goes 6. O.P. After Century
py the ssoci ted Prose

By the Associated Press.
CLEVELAND, Aug. 20.-The Plain
Dealer broke century, -old tradition
Of refraining from supporting for
President any other than Democratic
candidates" and announced last
night it favors Republican Wendell
l.. Willkie.
"The Plain Dealer elects to abide
by the idea that the country should
make social progress as fast as it can
pay for it, whereas Mr.. Roosevelt
has attempted not a liberal. bu5 a
radical goal" the paper said in an
editorial for today's editions.
The only possible outcome Of his
policies, as we see it Is state Social
ism, followed inevitably by some
form of FaScism."
The Plain Dealer said eight years
ago we supported Franklin D. Roose-
velt with boundless enthusiasm.
Four years ago we supported him
with some misgivings" This time,
the paper declared, it makes its
choice without hesitation or qualifi-
cation"
