ELIMINATING POVERTY.
Socialism is a criticism of exist
ing society which attributes most of
the poverty, vice, crime and other
social evils of today to the fact that
through the private or class owner
ship of the social forces of produc
tion and exchange, the actual pro
ducers of wealth are exploited by a
class of non-producers; a theory of
social evolution according to which
the rate and disrection ot social
evolution are mainly determined
by the development of the econom
ic factors of production, distribula
tion of society will be distinguished
by the social ownership and con
trol of the principal agencies of
production and exchange, and by
the equalization of opportunity as a
result ot this socialization; a move
ment primarily consisting of mem
bers of the wealth-producing class,
which seeks to control all the pow
ers of the State and to bring about
the collective ownership and control
of the principal moans of produc
tion and ('change, in order that pov
erty, class antagonisms, vice and
other ill results of the -existing soc
ial system ma> be abolished and
that a new and better social order
may be attained.
THE ONLY ESCAPE.
It is through their private own
ership of industries (the trusts)
that the capitalists are able to rob
the people. So long as they are
permitted to privately own these in
dustrits (the trusts) so long will
they possess this power to rob. And
rest assured they will never hesi
tate about using this power to the
utmost limit.. Socialism is the only
remedy. There is no other way to
escape. When all the people own
and manage the industries, through
the government, all the people will
get the profits that now go to the
capitalists. They will get them
cither by an increase in wages or a
lowering of prices, or both. Do
you want this change? Work for it!
THE UNEMPLOYED.
The competition of workers for
jobs has resulted practically in a
subsistence .\ape ior the vorkers.
1’he workers are u</;d to club each
other into submission, because
there are not enough jobs to go
around, That is why the capital
ists are able to use the disemployed
to threaten the employed. It will
be remedied wher. the people get
sense enough to do away with pri
vate ownership of the large scale
industries. Under Socialism, there
will be no unemployed. Therefore,
the scale of .wages will be high
and the standard of living will bo
excellent. »
A TRADE UNION OE KAISERS.
What is this engine that is grind
ing humanity to pulp? Who are
the devil’s instruments whose hands
are on the levers? What have we
to do to deliver men who simply
want to live decent lives in a‘ de
cent world from the monster that
controls them and butchers them at
Its will? At the root of it all is it
not the fact that the nations are in
the grip of the Dynasts? This un
happy Europe is caught in the
(angle* of a web spun by a trade
union of kaisers that has its agent
in every court and its hand on
every spring of power. »
ARE MEN EQUAL?
No, wc do not believe that all
men are equal. They aren’t. Edi
son is superoir to H. Thaw. Christ
was superior <o Judas. Rockefeller
is not in a par with Helen Keller.
The Kaiser is far beneath Herr
Lcibkencht, the daring Socialist
who was not afraid to voice his pro
test against war. Men are not equ
ul. They will always have more, or
fewer capabilities than his neighbor
| We do not strive for social equal
ity. We aim for social security for
[all human beings. Each individual,
! under a just system, must be sure
of his right to make a living. That
is more than equality; that is social
security. In other words, it is equ
ality of opportunity, not social equ
ality that counts.
The capitalists don’t run the
'railroads, they only own them. Eli
i minating the capitalists and their
ownership would in nowise inter
fere with the running of the rail
roads. The same people who run
the raliroads now would run them
under public ownership. The only
difference would be in the way
they run them. They now run
them for profits. Under Socialism
they would run them to give the
best possible service to those who
use them.
The people .made the railroads;
! why shouldn’t they own them?
! He’s true to God who’s true to
man; whenever wrong is done,
| To the humblese and the weakest,
j ‘neath te all-beholding sun,
j That wrong is also done to us, and
they are slaves mast base.
Whose love of right is for them
selves, and not for all the race.
—Lowell.
| This is a machine age. This is
j also a monopolistic age. The ma
! chine—-which is in reality a bless
! ing—is a curse under the present
system because the capitalists have
a strangle hold on the people. The
future will be a machine age, be
cause machinery will be used more
than ever, but the machinery of
production and distribution will be
long to the masses, not to the
classes.
