SOCIALISTS ‘WANT REMEDY FOR MONOPOLIZED INDUSTRY The class struggle was the théme of the Afth lecturs in thé course on Socialism delivered Tuésday night at the = Com- munity House on Church streét by Rev.' Alexander H.- Abhott, pastor of the United Congregational church. _The Storm had. some effect on the size of the atténdance which was not quite as 1 have attempted to say something of the origin of socialism and ‘its develop- ment said Reév. Mr. Abbott. We left our discussion last week with the third of the theories of Marke and Engle, the class struggle. What / want to do 1o- night is to say something about the character of present day socialism. hat do the socialists think they see ih our modern lifé? The socialist move- ment was ealled fnto life by eecnomic conditions that have developed of late. The fikst thing they see in our modern life is the 1o8s of ecbnomic indepéndence of the workers. They trace the develop- ment of industry from the eafiiest sim- plest day to the presént complex day. The socinlist sees the gradual loss of & certain individual Independence on the part of the workers of the world. that under the competitive into two groups. actual experience. Speaking of the relation betwesn smploy- er and employs, Rev. Mr Abbott said: Because the smployer wants to get ser- vice for the 1eaft cost and the most num- bér 6f hdurs and bécauvse the émployve wants to get the greatest pay for the least number of hours you have two an- tagonistic interests. Under the competitive system you have antagon¥sm between employer and employe, But you also have antagon- isf betiveen employer and employer, We are competitors. Each procséds in a le- gitimate way to fight to get the marke: Two merchants with thé- same line of goods are going ‘to do everything in their power, using legitimate means to get | their goods on the market. o There is a struggle going on between worker and worker. During a period of demand for labor vou have competition for the work. Then a relapse comes dnd thousandd wupon thousands are thrown out of work. What does that mean? It meais poverty and starva- tion. Under the competitive system you have warfare between producer and consum- er. The socialist ways these things are bound to be under the competivve sys tém. The relation between nation and nation is a very interesting little theme under the competitlve system. splits The ist will say one result of monopolized industry is absoluté power to diétate ternfs of employment to the worker. Another result of monopolized industry is the absolute power to fix the price of commodoties. If a thing is put at a certain pric u can take it or ]éave it. The socjalist says that is one of the marks of' monopolized industyy. Some of us run our automobiles. Do you or I ever flatter ourseives that we can téll the Standard Oil Company what théy shall charge for gas? Do you or I really believe that we run the coun- try? We do not. Theoretically we do. But practically we do mot. The socialist says under both the com- pétitive system and monopolized. indus- try you have a group of social maladies. One of these social maladies is the di- vigion of the, people, another the con- centration of wealth for a few. They s¢e under both systems the casting out of many from active industrial lite whicl throws them into shiftlessness and sometimes crime. They see all classes of society brought to uncertainty and sometimes despair. The socialist says, what an we do about it? Feor years we have done noth- ing. Can't we change it? Must we have in America in normal times two mil- lions unemployed ang in poverty and in abnormal times five and six millions un- employed and poverty stricken? The only thing that will save us is some turn that will make for the bemefit of the whole and not a few. Our aim is to’ take from those féw who comtrol the | necessities of life the aspect of control | and put it where it belongs, in ihe hands of the people themselves, for ihe Yenefit of all. That is the whole story nf socialism, said the lecturer. Bolshevism is a_development of secial- ism. The I W. W. is a deveiopment of socialism. There are various socialistic schools in the country but they differ by the methods and tactics they want to use, » Next Tuesday night Rev. . Mr. Abbott delivers the si: and final Yec- ture of the series’he will treat the math- ode and tactics by which the socialists hope to put their programmis into effect. JUDGE €. L.
