rules Affecting Others than members OF
the continuation. are matters about which
the entire body Of the people and their
government have . right and il Is thsir
duty 70 be concerned.
Such cspitaiistic combinations - these
abovs reporfed may Be limited 70 self-pTo-
tective objects. II 90. and 10 the extent
that they are 50, the public need not inter-
fere. Bat such combinations might be
nssde tyrannicaI in their treatment OF en-
ployes. or ruinously oppressive in their
dealings with the pubic. In such case the
:mprscticaDiIity OF counter-cembination
by the macs Of conImunity-consumer
and patrons-wculd seem 70 impose upon
the government the duty of protective
legislation.
The game rule holds rood when the other
line OF organization extends beyond the
seIf-pro.ective stage and assumes 20 pro-
h;bit and prevent citizens from engaging in
any employment that il open to them and
which they choose 70 accept. or to limit the
extent 20 which the youth Of the country
may become qualified for any branch OF
usefulness they may choose to adopt.
Irrespective OF any controversy between
the representatives OF combined capital
and labor, >. concerns the people at large,
and, sherefore, the government, that no
youth in the land shall os restrained from
becoming qualified for some useful en-
ploymenf. Any combination, whether Of
capitalists or iaborers, VINO attempt to do
this. to that extent transcend their IN
questionable right to combine for self-pro-
lection. In this regard American boys have
rights that the American public cannot
afford to rec trsmpled upon.
But they are being trampled upon. and
there IL but one way TO protect them That
10 by multiplying and extending schools for
technical education in m-chsnics, agricul-
ture and other lines Of useful employment.
Thus more readily than In any other man
ner can be created an army which will be
competent. and may be relied upon TO protect
the public against hurtful or dangerous
tendencies BIZ either form Of continuation.
II Corporations having charge of properties
devoted to public uses become too aggrcs-
sive or oppressive they can be condemned
and taken possession of BY the government.
and with the force thus created can be
operated. Ii consumers aie made the VIC
Tins Of exsortionase manufacturing combi-
nations, this force viii enable them to
make use OF independent capital in the
same lines for seif-protection.
II 10 also among the possibilities Of the
future that capitalistic and labor organize
tons might combine to limit production,
destroy composition and levy extortionate
tribute from the public. With the youth of
the land pretty universally educated to in
dussrial pursuits this would be impossible.
At ali events. on broad principles of justice
and humanity. no American boy should b.
debarred from chance to qualify himself
TO live By honest industry.
