HIS STATEMENT

things they could do-loose the
J. ands that bound Lazarus and set
him free.
If any advantage is to be gained
by the state taking over and oper.
atlng the industries, it will be lost
in the consequent Sitting of indi-
yidual initiative and independ-
ence. 1t will be more than lost in
opening of new opportunities for
corruption, for dividing the spoils
and for the building up of col
lossal political machine. The
state, SO far, has made no great
record in economy or efficiency
in handling the few educational,
penal and charitable institutions
it now operates. The state capitol
costs about double to operate what
it would cost a private corpora
ton. Those who desire to have
the state go into business propose
to you a taxation that will prove
confiscatory in the end and pro-
vide for the means of creating a
political machine that will become
an irresistible despotism. Volun-
tary cooperation on terms
mutually agreeable is an entirely
different matter and can not at
all be compared to compulsory
cooperation at the will Of the
majority. Instead, therefore, of
resorting to state ownership as a
remedy for our present troubles,
let the state correct the abuses of
the present system, leaving us an
improved opportunity to develop
our individual initiative and en-.
ergy.
We have been laying too much
stress on our mental, our physical
and our material development
and not enough on our mora!
development. We boast of our
lnexhaustible natural resources
ind our rapid increase in wealth.
We are habitually thinking and
talking in terms of dollars and
cents, disregardilg those things
whose value cannot be measured
in terms of money. A real and
permanent progress demands q
greater emphasis on the rights and
happiness Of humanity. Man must
be held above the dollar. Instead
of expounding theory of the
survival Of he fittest, let us ex.
end hand-the governments
