recently returned from san Francisco

keenly, says Mr. Spargo, because of
the war; but Socialism in the coun
tries at war is gaining ground, and
internationalism will progress rapidly
at the conclusion of hostilities.
"We are able to learn but little of
what is going on behind the lines in
the central empires," said Mr. Spargo.
"but we are well informed as to the
progress of Socialism in the allied
armies on the, western . front.
"These are, in fact, socialized ar
mies. Trenches have their Socialist
locals. Literature is distributed among
the men and meetings are many. In
the great camps behind the trenches
great socialist meetings are held, with
noted speakers from the capitals. The
meaning of the Socialist cause : is be
ing made clear to many, who have
never heard of .the movement before,
especially among the agriculturists,
who comprise large - portions of - the
armies. i
A.d vantage ZS Known.
"These are seeing dally the advan
tages of socialisation. They will ro
turn to their homes after the war with
demand that the governments con
tinue In times of peace as in .war the
many socialized enterprises that have
grown into being by reason of the conflict.
We must assume that these same
conditions exist in Germany, where the
Socialist movement has been specially
strong, and so it appears that after
the war the socialist cause will have
gained ground in ail oz tne neuigereat
countries.
Socialism bridges the gap between
a need and the power to fill that need,
and these men in the armies are see
ing the logic of it"
Mr. Spargo differs from many of his
colleagues, perhaps, in that he is not
an ultra-pacifist. He deplores war, de
nounces offensive warfare, and hopes
that the United States will be spared
war, but feels there axe times when
men must fight to preserve the integ
rity of their country.
"I believe tnat .rresiaeni vviison aia
the only thing he could possibly do
when he broke off gelations with Ger
many," said he. "I hops tnat we snail
be spared war, but if war comes let
our assistance be economic rather
than military. Let us give our re
sources toward bringing about a
speedy peace in the world and crush
ing militarism." -
Train Feople to Dig.
Mr. Rpkrso does not believe in uni
versal military training, but he does
believe in training in the potentiali
ties of war.
But a fraction of an army Is en
gaged in fighting." explained Mr.
Spargo, "the great majority of men
being engaged in doing what one
might term engineering feats, digging
trenches, buuoiag onuses, ana uie
like.
For this reason I think a years
compulsory training In engineering
feats, if you win. xor young men ana
women would not only be good for
them, but also for the state.
Die-sloe 100 miles or trenches, ror
example, is not vastly different from
digging 100 miles or aitcn. way not
give training along these lines, and so
accomplish so much for the uatlon in
the way of highways, irrigation proj
ects, dams and the HkeT It would be
universal training of a useful, help
ful kind, but a training unincumbered
with the objections of militarism.
John Spargo is one of the foremost
exponents of Socialist thought In the
United States. A native of Cornwall.
England, he came to this- country
after having made a name for himself
In association .with William -Morris
and others, some II years ago. Had
he remained in England he owuld have
gone to parliament, but instead he
came to America. He is a member of
the nationalxecutive committee of
tho- Socialist party, and is the author
of a number of important books,

library at I o'clock tonight on "Pri
