Socialism.

In temperate essay on socialism
contained in Professor j. Laurence
Laughlin's recent volume, Latter
Day Problems there is the following
well reasoned conclusions.
Just as soon as the acts of any
person infringe upon the rights of
others the state should interfere in
the interest of equality and justice.
Beyond this limit individual activity
should be left untrammeled and en-
couraged To believe that it will re-
ceiye all rewards due to its own initia-
tive. 1t is unquestionable that the
continued imposition upon Others OF
power and direction from outside
inevitably tends to reduce the Gre
alive strength of the individual and
to bring about deterioration in the
stock. The only way by which the
best can be got out OF the race is by
stimulating rather than by depressing
every possible kind of new energy
and by Offering all possible rewards
for its exercise. 1t is hardly conceiv-
able that any one set of government
officials should be So omniscient as TO
know just how TO stimulate every
other human being by process of legis-
latlon. Finally, it would be only fair
to compare socialism, which is an
ideal INFESTED by experience, with the
competitive system, not as it is now,
but as it would work out with per-
fected human nature. To improve
the world. living as at present under
a competitive system, offers an induce
ment as great as does socialism to the
eager idealiSt who wishes TO work for
righteousness. Ii perfection and
noble ideals are established as perma-
nent elements of the competitive
system, we shall have as great results
as in the dream of socialism. But
perfection is no more TO be looked for
in the one case than the other. Thus
we are led TO believe that while ideal
ism is an incentive to progress
Americans are pre-eminently idealists
Its path TO definite results must lie
in some.other direction than socialism

1t may seem strange that Miss Leah
