GANDHISM VERSUS
SOCIALISM

by

RICHARD B. GREGG

“A new and durable set of values can be created probably only by some great personality living them with immense energy and utter devotion. I believe that Gandhi is such a person and that he is engaged in such a task.

“As the two systems stand today, it is easier for Gandhiism to select, adopt and use the important parts of the program of Socialism than it is for Socialism to adopt the more important parts of Gandhiism. Thus, of the two systems, Gandhiism seems the more flexible and comprehensive, and, therefore, probably more lasting.

“… Gandhiism is psychologically wiser and more effective than Socialism, not only as a new means of revolution, but also as a long-time mode of life and social organization.”
