INTRODUCTION: A PLEA FOR FACING THE FACTS vii
PART I

THE CONCERN OF AMERICA
CHAPTER I
THE RELATION TO THE PEACE SETTLEMENT 		3
The scant interest shown by the American people as a
whole in the recent social movements of Europe. Yet
the force of those movements will deeply influence the
character of the peace settlement and the accomplishment
of those political ends for which America entered the war.
The fashion in which the social revolution is pushing the
political and national issues into the background, and how
the issue of a social system based on private property
versus one based on communism is determining the align-
ment of forces in Europe. For what kind of democracy
will the world be made safe?
CHAPTER II
THE ARRIVAL OF THE PROBLEM IN AMERICA 		36
The growth of radically socializing policies throughout
the world is not due to socialist propaganda, or the in-
fluence of socialists, but to the war measures of govern-
ments often anti-socialist in opinion and intention. Thus
the introduction of extremely radical policies into America
is not the work of the Socialist Party, or the I. W. W.,
but results from the actual measures of the government
for war purposes. These revolutionary measures, which
could never have been introduced by Socialist influence,
have actually been put into effect, and the question which
will shortly present itself to the American public is
"Which of these measures shall be undone?" and out
of that question may arise, with the changes wrought by
war conditions, a re-alignment of political forces, as in.
England. The British problems are already here.
