And while great enterprises have
gained strength and the fortunes OF
many individuals increased, the lot OF
the laboring man has not grown pro-
portionaGely better With all his united
effort he has not yet been able to wrest
justice for himself and family, to gain
a just proportion for his labor.
If salaries have Increased, they have
not kept pace with the increased cost
of, living; if the American standard OF
living has developed, it has been re-
tarded by the increased rents, and if
we are no nearer the final solution than
a decade ago, it is because the work
man has been forced to suffer and
struggle for every little advantage, and
that the employer has refused TO adopt
higher code of business ethics. 1t
should not be fight Of class against
class" but struggle of class for
class; the chief concern should not be
the granting Of just so much as TO avoid
Industrial warfare. but rather the well
coming of that welfare work that may
ma Ike the lot of all men more happy and
contented.
The Only Way.
And this can be accomplished in only
one way; its realization would be at
hand tomorrow were an men TO recoS-
nize the truth of the closing words of
the play, There's only one sound prac-
without demoralizing them. 1 can put
the thing in one word-education! There
Is the only hope. You've got to show
the people how to help themselves
You've got TO raise their standards
This is the answer to the problem
Just as our labor question is the re-
sult of education, its solution will be
the result of further education. The
working man asks for no special priv
ileges. but his is the right to demand
Justice; he asks for no favors, but he
has. at least the right to request fair
play His must be the struggle to reach
the goal set by modern study, while his
employer must be impressed with the
ancient bible truth. He that oppresseth
the poor reproacheth his Maker More
than once does the good book tell US
not to Cypress the hired servant or keep
back his wages. That conditions in
those DAYS did not differ materially
from those of our own can be seen from
the remark of Hosea He is a traf-
ficker-he loveth to Cypress" Condf-
lions were such that the last of the
prophets represents God as saying: Il
will be a swift witness against those
that Cypress the hireling in his wages
Shall Question Always Exist:
Though the labor question is not
new, this gives no right TO say that
IT must ever exist. With our broader
knowledge, with our more developed
civilization. it Is to our shame that the
problem is not nearer solution. But
believe that the dawn of a brighter
tomorrow is at hand. With the IN
creased activity of the disinterested ma
tionaI organizations for the study OF
child labor, of woman's working hours,
of sanitary factory conditions and en-
Iareed welfare work, and with the
closer union of the working men, the
time will come when We will blame our
stlves for having delayed so long. yet
find ample recompenSe in the increased
manhood and the truer homelife that
will surround us Then will the bat
tle'' have ended and in its place we will
find that nobier striving of seeing how
each can best serve his fellowman.
