Excerpt from The New Social Democracy: A Study for the Times It is not the purpose of this book to help in this work of destruction. Its author sincerely hopes that not one single page - not even a sentence - will add an additional motive to the spirits of those who are all for dissipating that hard won heritage Which has been left us from the past. His purpose is reconstruction - not destruction. There is no need to deny the necessity for change - aye.
