Havard's President Emeritus Is
Against Minimum Wage, Which
He Calls 'DepIorabIe Doctrine
and Practice Of Trade Unions.
Churches Not Yet Well Organized
or Ministers Well Educated for
Social Service, He Holds, and
Urges Their Aid for Agencies.

BOSTON, Nov. president (emer-
itus) Charles w. Eliot, of Harvard, in
The current number of The Harvard
Theological Review, advocates these
points with others bearing upon the
welfare and progress of the commu-
nity's life.
He is very strong against leisure in
he sense Of loaf1ng, idleness or mac
tivity.
The moral evils OF a community
are not due to poverty" maintains DR..
Eliot. He adds:
One reads frequently in the pub
lie prints that the cause of prosti-
tuition Is the failure of employers to
pay young women living wage. 1t
seems to me q demoralizing and a
degrading doctrine In itself and in
all its implications. To my think
ing poverty is far safer moral con-
dton than inordinate wealth.
Where Laws Fail.
Now. legislation can improve the
conditions under which women work
n factories and shops and protect
married women from overwork be-
fore and after confinement: but this
kind Of legislation will not safe
guard the physical and moral health
Of the community.
That health can only be protected
by the development of sound char
scter in the members of the com
munity. both men and women.
