FINDS SOCIALISM NO DISGRACE IN ENGLAND

"The attitude in America towards the Labor Government in England is much the same as what England's attitude must have been towards the French Revolution", said Mr. H. J. Golding in his lecture at the Union last night on "The Labor Party and What It Stands For."

"In England", Mr. Golding continued, "we no longer judge a man by his labels. Because a man is a Socialist he is not shunned by society. When socialism can count among its adherents such figures as Anatole France, H. G. Wells, . B. Shaw and d'Annunzio, English people of all parties realize that a Labor Government is not going to mean the collapse of all England, and they whish Mr. MacDonald luck in his effort to do a good job, no matter how skeptical they may be of his success.

"To think that the Labor Party is made up entirely of rather impetuous extremists is the greatest mistake possible" Mr. Golding pointed out. "In Lord Haldane, the Lord Chancellor of the cabinet, Labor has one of the greatest of living scholars and statesmen. The Minister for Foreign Affairs was a page at the court of Queen Victoria, and the Government has a cabinet at present which has only once been equalled and never surpassed in the last 50 years. Mr. MacDonald is himself trying to life the peace," he concluded, "as Mr. Wilson lifted the war, from the plane of sordid materialism to that of inspired idealism."
