RELIGION AND LABOR

Before the European crisis ever
shadowed the world there were in
fuences at work in the labor move
anent making for a religious revival
such as democracy has never known
since II became organized. The influ-
ences are still at work while the war
proceeds"
That is the opening statement OF a
story, or history, told BY George Haw
in the Hilbert Journal. The great Ia
Dor movements of the 18th century
socialism, trades unions. cooperation
and the friendly sOcieties-were
founded without help from the church
and often in opposition to il. on the
continent socialism had a definite an
ti-religious basis. Marx says, The
idea Of God must be destroyed" En-
gels says, The first word OF religion
is a lie" In Great Britain there has
never been this anti-Christian atti-
tude. While some Of the prophets
like Carlyle, owen and others have
been bitter critics Of orthodox Chris
tianity. there were also the Christian
socialists under Maurice and Kings
ley. How did the labor movement
generally become separated from the
church? il was because the church
took no notice of Il, so IL ceased TO

few years ago, boosted that all but

OF the working classes attend church.
The cause Of this was the breaking
down Of the evangelicism Of the
church. In the last few centuries this
evangeliciSm had set men free from
the dead hand OF church tradition,
and the arrogance Of priestly claims"
II set free the moral and material

could as much water as his hands
would hold. Soon his body was run
