Juue Us H'l"- SOCIALISTS COMMIT HARAKIRI. Till' socialist party lias ousted diaries Kdward Russell leeaiise lie did not resign front the American mission to Russia headed hy Klihu Root, of which lie was appointed a meinher hy President Wilson, when requested to hv so cialist party officials. .Mr. Russell is to he congratulated hecause of his pa triotism in placing his country ahove his party, lie is fur ther to he felicitated for having had his relations with an unpatriotic and un-American organization severed. Jt will he noticed that the expulsion of Russell comes at a time when he is in Russia upon a government mission find is designed to discredit him with Russian socialists and cmharrasts the mission and the American government. It is part and parrel of the (icrinan propaganda the social ists are engaged in promoting. The socialist parlies of Kngland, Prance and (lermanv are loyal to their governments ,hut the socialist partv in America is disloyal to the United States. It is comple'telv in control of the llillquits, Mergers, and other German agents and is hcing used as an instrument in behalf of Ger many. This explains the complete collapse of the partv the desertion of it hy all patriotic Americans when the ma chinery was captured by the German war partv, which is financing the socialist and anarchist parties as well as the various peace movements, both real and fake. At its recent convention at St. Louis, controlled bv Hill-, quir ami bcrgcr, treasonable ln-iif;iiij; i tic socialist pari io: Continuous, active and public opposition to the war. thru demonstra lions, mass petitions and all other means within our power. 'I'nylolding opposition to all proposed legislation for military or Indus trial conscription. , "Should such conscription be forced to continuous erforts for the repeal of such lnws and to the support of all mass movements in opposition to conscription." Yet only a few yeai-s ago, this same neaee-lovin- T?cr- ger made the following declaration in his .Milwaukee newspaper: "In view of the plutocratic law-making of the present day. it is easy to predict that the safety and hope of this country will finally lie In one direc tion only that of a violent and blood v revolution. "Therefore, I say, each of the ui)0,0i)i 00U worklngnien who instinctively incline our way, should, besides doing much reading and still nioro thinking, also havo n good rifle and the neces ;ary rounds of ammunition in his home and be prepared to hack up his ballot with his rlgle If necessary." The expression of such abandonment of the party by the Rensons, Gaylords, Si mons and other intellectuals so with only the Germans left, the future of the socialist party in America is of few davs and full of trouble. HOW TO END SlGNOU Marconi, the inventor of wireless telegraphy and a member of the Italian commission visiting Amer ica, has pointed out how the United States can win the war for the entente allies at minimum cost of men and money by construction and operation of an immense flotilla of aeroplanes. He states: "The airplane is an enormous factor In this conflict and will, I believe, grow even more decisive. The I'nited States will be looked to for this con tribution in a great measure. It will require an hundred thousand flying machines to subordinate the other methods of war to tho air fighting; 10, 000 would help mightily, but they would not settle the war; 100,000, 1 think would. "If an overwhelming force of airplanes could be mustered so that the enemy fliers would be driven from the air, tliey would be helpless in ranging and directing artillery, and would, of course, be at an incalculable disadvan tage. Xews from the battle front has told of the growing im portance of the aeroplane in the future of the war. Not only is the airship the eyes of the army, but it can be made most effective as a weapon of offense. Were the kaiser able to send even a fleet of UKX) aero planes against London, there would be little left of the metropolis. The damage that can be inflicted even by a doen has proven enormous. The Germans, have used the new weapon principally as an illegitimate instrument of terrorism, but as a legitimate weapon fur the (lest met ion of forts, arsenals, navies and armies, the airship has un limited possibilities. With such an enormous fleet of planes, the enemy could be driven entirely from the air. All the German munition factories, shipyards and submarine bases could be de stroyed, l'.ven the warships locked up in the Keil canal and the fortress of Helgoland could be wiped out by the tons of explosives dropped from the sky. Berlin could be raided as easily as London has been and while defensive warfare would claim a percentage of destruction, it would be slight both in lives and money to the invaders. The I'nited States can become militarily effective quickest by concentrating energies along the lines of air plane construction and the training of aviators. Hundreds of automobile and other factories could be transformed into airplane factories. A few weeks intensive training for flyers will suffice and the cost of such a program will not exceed a billion dollars. and a "cold snack" !ov --i iVt a a .c''hii rVr a mc.il xrtj 'i,i!i.(r; t'vjlu iVM KV.tvi turn, po'nto r bii-.ui, and ut : A id Dr It i m 'i-'rv.:-.it tV. i. 2. :.;:. aic s."J riirO-iv,; Ail by its!!' &vA CI he fav n po w.tli r h,-t or i-v '..' -.: rr c :V tvtter. 13cothe !'l-v:r-- .;:rd 5. .ft Jrlnk. ?J! resolutions were adopted upon the people we pledge ourselves Socialist voters, and of tho 2.U00,- i I ; i h i sentiments resulted in the THE WAR. ssi FORES!
