Human welfare Comes First.

Nothing is more true than that excess
of every kind is followed by reaction;
fact which should be pordered by reform
er and reactionary alike. We are face to
face with new conceptions OF the rela-
lions of property to human welfare, chief
ly because certain advocates of the rights
of property as against the rights of men
have been pushing their claims too far
The man who wrongly holds that every
human right Is secondary to his profit
must now give way to the advocate Of
human welfare who rightly maintains
that every man holds his property sub
feet to the general right OF the commun-
ity to regulate its use to whatever degree
the public welfare may require It. But
I think we may go still further. The
right to regulate the use Of wealth in the
public interest Is universally admitted.
Let us admit also the right to regulate
the terms and conditions of labor, which
Is the chief element of wealth, directly
in the interest Of the common good The
fundamental thing TO DO for every man
is to give him the chance to reach q place
In which he will make the greatest posi-
BILE contribution to the public welfare.
No man can be . good citizen unless he
has a wage more than sufficient to cover
the bare cost Of living. and hours OF Ia
Dor short enough SO that after his days
work is done he will have time and en-
ergy to bear his share in the manage
ment Of the community, to help in car
rying the general load. We keep count
less men from being good citizens by the
conditions Of life with which we surround
them. We need comprehensive work.
