PRAISES HONEST MAN.
Or. Angel Says Outlook for Him Is
Most Promising.


CHICAGO. May 27.--Dr. James B.
Angel, president-emeritus OF the Uni
versity of Michigan, In an address TO
the graduates of Armour Institute
last night. said:
One Of the most characteristic
things of the time is the widespread
outbreak of dishonesty In high and
low places. Men in places of the
highest trust and drawing good sal
arIes have proved criminally false to
their trusts. Immense combinations
OF capital have used their power I'M
scrupulously against the welfare OF
the helpless. common people. We are
shocked and driven almost to the de-
spondency Of asking II any career of
success is possible for an honorable
man.
But when we turn from the Grim
inal to view the common people the
outlook is most promising. Among
the great mass of people rests moral
soundness. We have seen the de-
throning of political bosses, long en-
trenched In power, and there is an
overwhelming demand for laws that
will abolish Intolerable abuses exist
ing.
I'VE need not doubt that the hon.
est man has a chance today"
