WHEN NOT TO MARRY.
Harvard Professor Advocates Race Suicide as
Cure for Poverty.

II no one were allowed TO marry until he
capable OF earning g day its equivalent the
problem % poverty would be solved according to
Professor Thomas y. Carver, OF Harvard Univer-
sIty Discussing the subject in the June Mum
sey's," under the heading What Income Is Nee
essary for Marrage? he that the only thing
that VIII do the working any good is 70 raise
his wages. and that the only way to raise wages
IS either 10 increase the supply OF jobs to de-
crease the supply OF labOrers. Where two men
looking for every job wages are low. but
where two Jobs are looking for every man wages
are high. So long as It Is possible to hang out a
sign, Man Wanted and have a hundred men
apply for the lob, long will there be low wages
and widespread poverty. with all the evils which
follow in its train. When the time comes that the
employer must hunt for for every Job there
will be high wages and no poverty at all. except
as the result OF weakness, accident incapacity."
AS It seems impossible to increase the number
Of Jobs sufficiently. Professor Carver finds only
one way out of the difficulty and that is lessen
the supply of laborers. This only be done Ly
restricting the natural increase. and II q single
country wants to solve the problem alone, 1t must
also restrict immigration 1T is useless to contend
against poverty in this country" says Professor
Carver, until restrict immigration and he
would have immigration restricted on the same
lines as marriage. namely by the exclusion OF
every head of a family unable TO earn S2 day.
If this were done, he says wages would eventually
rise TO that figure, which is not large enough
one he adds. but merely the point at which de-
cent existence is possible.
Professor Carver admits that this plan would be
attended by grave dangers" that doubtless 1t
would tend to increase the amount OF sexual
morality and illesitimacy," but he thinks that nc
evil is greater than poverty and that "the pros
pect of eliminating proverty by this method OF
stoppage at the is alluring that
ought to be willing to take almost any risk or
sumo almost any cost in order to accomplish it
