The Growth of the Idea
OF Municipal Ownership

BY Rev. Dr. LYMAN ABBOTT of Brooklyn
AM personally heartily in favor Of the municipal ownership
of all forms Of industry that are NECESSARILY municipal
Il monopolics.
There are three theories of government-irst, the Rus
sian, that the people cannot take care of themselves, and the few
must look after the many.
Secondauly, there is the police theory. Government should pre-
self, and the devil take the hindmost. This is the theory of the
eighties.
We are now working toward the third. The state is an organism
with intelligence, s~enibiliy and will, as exhibited in public opinion,
spirit and law. 1t has the right to do for itself anything it can do
better than the individual. This is sometimes called socialism, but
1 have lived too long to mind about mere words.
1t is not state socialism, for that means the state does everything.
All work according to their ability and receive according to their
needs. 1t matters not whether l preach sermons or shine boots, l
RECEIVE ACCORDING TO MY NEEDS.
In my opinion this is q very good system Of government, but it i
very different from municipal OWNERSHIP.
state policeman does many things. He builds lighthouses, runs a
weather bureau and educates our children. In two cities he operates
a subway AND IN ALL CITIES he maintains the parks.
The state, in fact, is recognized as an organism to Go things FOR
ALI" This is far more democratic and implies a greater faith in
humanity than individuaism, for it means a belief in the faculty to
cooperate.
THE DANGER OF MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP is FAR LESS THAN
MACHINES AND FAVORED CORPORATIONS.
If the people can combine for war and education, why can they not
do it FOR TRANSPORTATION

the disease spreading to my hair,
which fell out, leaving an unsightly
bald spot, and the soreness, intlam-
nation, and merciless itching made
me wild. After a few applications OF
Cuticura the torment subsidized, the
sores disappeared, and my hair grew
