It wqqid be interesting, if it were Itqssible, to trace the direct connection between the decline of the Socialist par ty in the United States and the revela tion of the impracticability qf Socialist views when pushed to their logical ex treme, as Ims been done by the Soviet government of Russia. Previous to the rise of I-ieniue and Trotzky and their school in 1917 there was a fairly large . Socicalist party in this country, just as there still is in England. France, Ger mnny and other Europeau nations. Starting in litOO, its perennial candidate for President. Eugene V. Debs, polled 94.768 votes, which he increased to 402.- 400 in 1904. 420,820 in 1908, and 897, Oil in 1912. There was a recession in 1916, when Bensou received .>83,113 votes, but Debs more than made it up in 1920, when he was supported by 919- 799 voters. . During the past four years the party has practically disappeared as an organ ization. according to one of its members, j ijavid ‘Karsuer. .former editor of The i Jvjow Vork Call. How far this has been I due to the disillusionment caused by the j failure of Russia under the new dispen sation to make good the, promises of its Bolshevist leaders it is impossible to * say, but certain it is that the party has so waned that it will cut no figure in the approaching election. Probably many of its former adherents will sup lH>rt Senator J.aFollette.

Rf gardiqg some of the phases of this strik ing decline Mr. Karuer lias this to say: “In 1912 there Were 70 Socialist pa pers published in English in the United States, ami 31 in foreign languages. In 1923 there were not more than 20 So cialist weeklies published in English, and a dozen in foreign langimges. This excludes the trade union and Communist weeklies, which Socialists have always ignored except to attack aud deride. In 1923 the Socialists were obliged to sell their building in Chicago ighere they maintained national headquarters and to move to a loft of modest capacity. Ip 1912 100 persons were on the payroll of the national office. In 1923 this number had beeu reduced to five.’’ ! Apparently Socialism has uever takeji; deep root in the United States. Therp; seems to be something in American its-i dividualism that makes it a particularly pof>r soil for Marxian doctirnes. j The first boll weyyihs are emerging from the punctured squares.

Boat. W.B. Ward, Mrs. M. L. Buchanan and D. Frank Barrier. Thj same burglar that robbed a number of Concord homes several weeks ago or a man that nses the same prac tices as the former second story man, paid a visit to four homes in this city i last night, securing a small amount of cash in two of the homes. The homes visited by the burglar last 1 night were those of D. I- Host, D. Frank Bnrrier, W, B. Ward and Mrs. M. 1,. Buchanan. At the home of Mr. Barrier aud Mr. Ward the thrief secured nothing aud at the other two homes he secured only a small amount of cash. At the home of Mrs. Buchanan the in truder gained entrance through a window on the front porch, as he did at the Bost home. XJrs. Buchanan has missed noth ing, but her son, Dr. S. E. Buchanan, had a small amount of change taken from his pants and his wife bad about $4 taken from her i>ockethook. I>r. and Mrs. Buchanan aud son were sleeping in the same room and they did not hear the bur glar. The theft was detected about 2:30. however, when the child asked for water and Mrs. Buchanan got up to get it. Dr. Buchanan found his coat and pants in the hall which adjoins the room in which he sleeps. watch was not taken but the intruder carried olt two dividend checks and twq letters. At the home of Mr. Bost the intruder got a small amount of cash from Dray Host and a five-dollar bill from Joe Bost. The intruder also secured $2 from Mrs. Bqst. The room in which Mr. and Mrs. Bost was sleeping was entered, the bur glar going through a bunch of keys and finding one that unlocked a bureau draw er. From the drawer he topk a tin box which held some valuable papers. The i drawer and three watches which were • iu if were found on the front porch of : the boqre Jbls pipruiug. Jfo ope lisnrd the burglar. 'Nothing was taken at the home of Mr. Ward and the home of Mr. Barrier. At the latter home the intruder was seen by Mrs. Barrier. She thought it was a neighbor who had called to inquire about My. Barrier, who has been Jll. The man came to the door of the room in which Mrs. Barrier was sleeping and she asked what he wanted. No reply was made by the man who backed out of the room ami | left the house by a kitchen door. Mrs. ! Barrier followed him. it being after 3 o'clock at the time, but he disappeared before she could get a good view of his fape. So far the police have no clues as to whom the robber is. Major Fqil Returns Home. Major W. A. Foil, delegate to the Democratic National Convention from thy eighth congressional district, returned to his' home here yesterday. He was accompanied home by Mrs. Foil and Mrs. R. A. Brown, who went to New York with him. , Major Foil declared .that when he left New York he saw little chance of any break in the week's deadlock. He and most of the other North Caro lina delegates had been voting for Mc- Adoo from the start and he expressed the opinion that unless a compromise ngrcesble to their candidate was made the North Carolinians would continue to support McAdoo. Mr. Foil and party left Concord two weeks ago and ?ie declared he had enough of conventions for the present at least. Mr. Foil was ITT (luring the early part of last week blit lie fully ■ recovered by the latter part of the week and he returned home in good shape, considering the ordeal he and the other delegates had to go through with during the time.

BRYAN GOES AHEAD WITH DOLES IDEA Sccrpcy to Gqvcrw Collection and Pfcdrty lition cf Fund* F»r “Needy Dele gates.” New York World. William J. Bryan., delegate from Flor ida to the Democratic National Conven tion. is afraid lest -evil minded persons try to take advnt>Mf|e of the financial condition of delegates who have been here longer than they expected to be when they left home. To provide for any who may need aid lie has a plan to tide them over a few days longer. He found a wtiy to un derwrite his proposition, but will not make public the names of those who give to the fund or tlitae who receive it. Mr. Bryan has, formally taken up his scheme with members of the Democratic National Committee, as 'Hie World an nounced several days am>„ It. is hi* pur*. [Kise to liavf the ftttafpWistributetl by the committee so there (kilt -be no question about where it goes. I Hi* yl ile plan is to be handled by committee, which will know the source of the funds. When asked if he had found any needy people among‘the delegates. Mr. Bryan said he had. blit not many. Mr. Bryan said he did not know Miss Katherine Day. of the Cosmopolitan (lab, No. 133 East 40th Slrect. who proposed “to help Mr. McAdoo rare for his dele gates." He explained that some woman had called him up. but he was not clear as to who she was.- ■»» Very few of the delegates need help. A survey of the situation shows a large majority of the Southern delegates are well-to-do, aud need no funds. The lead ers qf the Texas. Georgia, North and South Carolina. Virginia. Louisiana, Ten-, nessee. Mississippi and Florida delega tions said their delegates bad drawn on their bank accounts and are ready for any sort of siege.
