These are precisely the two emotions,
particularly when combined with ignor-
Rnce, which unfit men for the exercise OF
cool and steady judgment. In facing new
Industrial conditions the whole history Of
the world shows that legislation will gen.
orally be both unwise and ineffective I'M
less undertaken after calm inquiry and
with sober self restraint.
Much OF the legislation directed at the
trusts would have been exceedingly mis-
chievous had 1t not also been entirely In
effective. In accordance with q we'll
known sociological law the ignorant or
reckless agitator has been the really eff
fective friend OF the evils which he has
been nominally opposing. In dealing with
business interests for the government to
undertake by crude and fl-considered leg
islation to do what may turn out to be
bad would be TO incur the risk of such
fa~r-reaching national disaster that IL
would be preferable TO undertake nothing
Mt all. The men who demand the impossi-
BILE or the undesirable serve as the allies
OF the forces with which they are nomi-
nally at war. for they hamper those who

There is a widespread conviction IN the
minds OF the American people that the
great corporations known as trusts are IN
certain of their features and tendencies
hurtful to the general welfare. rms
springs from no spirit of envy or C
itableness nor lack of pride in the great
Industrial achievements that have placed
this country at the head OF the nations
struggling for commercial supremacy. IL

based upon sincere conviction that COM

ment this conviction is right.
1t is no limitation upon property rights
or freedom of contract to require that
when men receive from government the
privilege Of doing business under corpo-
rate form which frees them from indt-
vidual responsibilities and enables them

s~olutely truthful representations as to
the value OF the property in which the
capital Is 10 DC invested. corporations
engaged In interstate commerce should
be regulated if they are found to exercise
a license working to the public injury.
1t should be as much the aim of those
who seek for social betterment to rid he
business world of crimes of cunning as
to rid the entire body polite of crimes
of violence. Great corporations exist
only because they are created and safe
guarded by our institutions, and 1t is

The national government should emand
the highest quality of service from It's
employees, and in return 1t should be a
good employer. II possible, legislation
should be passed in connection with the
Interstate law which will rem
der effective the efforts OF different states
TO do away with the competition of con-
vict contract labor in the open labor mar
ket. SO far as practicable under the con-
ditions of government work provision
should be made to render the enforce
ment Of the eight-hour law easy and GER
tain. In all industries carried on directly
or indirectly for the United States gov
ernment women and children should be
protected from excessive hours OF labor,
from night work and from work under
unsanitary conditions. The government
should provide in its contracts that all
work should be done under fair" condi-
lions and, in addition to setting a high
standard, should uphold it by proper in
spection, extending If necessary to the
Bubcontractors. The government should
forbid all night work for women and
children as wen as excessive overtime.
For the District of Columbia a good fac
tory law should be passed, and, as a
powerful indirect aid to such laws, pro-
vision should be made to turn the inhab-
tied alleys. the existence of which Is N
reproach to our Capital City, into minor

doing, so that, Independent OF the reward,
they wish to turn out a perfect job.

grafton Laws Recommended.
Our present immigration laws are I'M
satisfactory. We need every honest and
efficient immigrant fitted to become an
American citizen, every immigrant who
comes here to stay, who brings here q
strong body, a stout heart, a good head
and a resolute purpose to do his duty well
In every way and to bring up his children
as law-abiding and G~od-fearing members
of the community. But there should be q
comprehensive law enacted with the OBJ
1ect OF working a threefold Improvement
over our present system. First we should
aim to exclude absolutely not only all
persons who are known to be believers
In anarchistic principles or members of
anarchistic societies, but also all persons
who are of a low moral tendency or OF
unsavory reputation. This means that
we should require a more thorough sys-
tenn of inspection abroad and a more
rigid system OF examination at our inn
migration ports, the former being espe-
cially necessary.

Moreover, we should recognize the i'm
mense Importance to this material de-
velopment of leaving as u"nhdmpered as
is compatible with the public good the
strong and forcetul men upon whom the
success of business operations inevitably
rests. TIE slightest study of business
conditions will satisfy any one capabls
Of forming a judgment that the personal
equation is the most important factor In
q business operation: that the business
concern. big or little, is usually the factor
which fixes the gulf betU cen striking
success and hopeless failure.
An additional reason for caution in deal
ing with corporations is to be found in the
International commercial conditions of to-
day. The same business conditions which
have produced the great aggregations Of
corporate and individual wealth have
mad them very potent factors in inter-
national commercial competition. Bush
ness concerns which have the largest
means at their disposal and are managed
10y the ablest men are naturally those
which take the lead in the strife for COM
mercial supremacy among the rations OF
the world. America has only just begun
to assume hat commanding position in
the international business world which
we believe will more and more be hers. 1t
is of the utmost Importance that this po-
sition be not jeoparded, especially at a
time when the overlooking abundance Of
our own natural resources and the skill,
business energy and mechanical aptitude
of our people make foreign markets es-
sential. Under such conditions 1t would
be most unwise to cramp or to fetter the
youthful strength of our nation.
