becomes its own prejudiced Judge Of it

becomes its own prejudiced Judge of its
rights-or wrongs.
The greatest difference between sava-
gerry and civilization is the law. The sum
and substance of law is that all disputes
and all wrongs shall be settled by the
courts and that by urprejudiced and i'm
partial juries and judges. But in the
changing condition of labor and capital,
we have as yet not been able to evolve
laws which shall govern the unions of
men as the statutes govern the indi-
viduals.
We are attempting at this time to gov
ern unions of capital and unions of labor
by the same laws that govern the indi-
yidual and no wonder we fail. No won
der the people criticise the judges of our
courts for decisions that are manifestly
wrong in fact, though strictly according
to law. For the people know the facts
but do not know the laws. =
To us it seems that the unionism of
corporate bodies and the unionism of
labor will in time be governed by laws
suitable to the conditions-because it is
evident that the laws for individuals are
failures when applied to corporations.
And one of the first things to do to make
such laws effective will be to force all
labor unions to become corporate bodies,
a body that can sue and be sued. That
will make them something tangible, and
will do much to define their rights and
defend them from wrongs.
just an instance of the difficulties of
the courts-courts agree that an individ-
ual laborer can leave his employer at any
time he pleases and for any reason, or
without any reason. Anything elsewould
be form of slavery. On the other hand
courts have determined that body of
men who do the same thing collectively
are acting in the constraint of commerce
and trade and are therefore acting con-
trary to law. Perhaps this last statement
is little more broad than the courts say
it, but is really about what is the fact
and is as the trade unions interpret it.
AS applied to a boycott it is literally cor
rect.
But this is great subject-too great
for single editorial-but it must be
thought out. It is the present problem
before the people. 1t is political, but not
partisan.

but there are many things to be thought
out and foreseen before the government
can get into this vast business of guar
anteeing the billions of deposits of the
banks of the country.
Now, every business man who deposits
money in bank-and al business men
do-looks carefully over the board of
directors and the stockholders of the
bank before he deposits his money there.
in. He also watches the business of the
bank as best he may and guides himself
accordingly. sThese are his safeguards,
first the business stability and resources
of the stockholders, and second the busi-
ness standing and management of the
bank.
With government guaranty that his
deposit shall be returned to him a man
could deposit his cash with comparative
safety in sand bank. But the govern.
ment could not and would not guarantee
the sand bank for obvious reasons.
When the government shall insure the
depositors in national banks that their
deposits shall certainly be returned to
them, by that insurance it must necessar-
lily agree to practically run and govern
the business Of such banks.
Under a government insurance the
weak banks with small capital, unreli-
able resources and wild cat management,
would be as safe for deposits as the
strongest banks. But the fact that they
were weak would make the weaker banks
the strongest bidders for deposits-and
they would naturally get them.
A large part Of the deposits OF the
country are in the form of time deposits
on which interest is given. Such de-
posits are mostly now in the strong
banks for obvious reasons, but with
guarantee deposits, then the wildcat
banks could and would offer greater in.
terest than the more conservative instit-
utions could afford. The financial results
of such business would be certain.
All losses would finally be paid by the
depositors just as they are now paid, ex-
cept that the losses would be divided
pro rata among the whole instead OF
falling to the Individuals rs now. The
losses would occur, with the general pro
liability that they would be more than
now, unless the government itself ran
the banks.
These thoughts are not written in
opposition to the guarantee deposit idea;
as we said in the beginning, it is quite
probable that we may be able to do it in
time, but there are many difficulties in
the way that may not occur to even the
ordinary business man, that must be
thought of and thought out before any
such scheme can be success.

to give the symmetrical tapering ef-
