peace. He is much more apt to be a
faithful, conscientious servant than II
he had not had military training. de
enters public service in time OF peace
in more nearly the same spirit thai ne
would enter military service in time OF
war-namely, from a sense of patriotic
duty and a desire to serve his country
and his fellowmen.
In recent years we have been hearing
a great deal about government owner
ship of our railroads. We are told that
in Germany the railroads are owned by
the government and that their opera
ton is most successful. This is true,
but in Germany conditions are vastly
different.
The military training of the youth, In
fact, the entire trend of education In
Germany is to impress upon the young
men of that land that they owe service
to their country. When a man enters
the governments employ in the rail-
road business he Is as conscientious as
he would be were he entering the gov.
ernment's service in time of war.
If our railroads were to be taken
over and operated by our government
at this time, how many of you think we
would duplicate Germany's success?
Government ownership of railroads
may be as desirable in this country as
1t is in Germany, but we must first
have public servants who will at least
come somewhere near the standard or
Germany's public servants in efficiency
and honesty.
Look at the spectacle we are pre-
senting to the world at this very mo
ment in our pork barrel legislation
| Could we afford to have u railroads
operated by the same type of public
servants?
If our government is to endure, il
we are to take our proper place among
the nations of the world in the new CIV
ilization, the man of the future must
live not for himself alone but for
others.
Consideration for one another is
speedily becoming a social, industrial
and economic necessity.
Capitalization is the order of the day.
The telegraph, the telephone, the auto
mobile and the airship are the causes.
They have wiped out not only old prec-
Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1917-04-27

that a man could not whip his horse as
much as he pleased he would have been
ridiculed. Indeed, in those days the
idea that a man had not the right to
beat his own child as he pleased was
given little attention.
When we were all driving horses and
buggies there was no speed limit and
a man did not have to procure a
license to drive a horse. With the adj
vent of the automobile a license has
become a necessity. The public must
know that the man who operates an
automobile knows first how to operate
it and, second, to control it.
Society is finding it necessary to take
away much of what has hitherto been
called freedom of the individual" In
my judgment this process is only in it's
infancy.
The freedom of the business man to
do as he pleases is being seriously
challenged, and l most heartily agree
with what Mr.. John d. Rockefeller, Jr.,
said recently at Cornell University to
the effect that one of the chief quail
~fications for a manager of a large bust
ness concern is rapidly coming to be
the human quality and ability to adj
just differences between capitalist and
laborer and to understand their rela-
tionship.
Relation Of Capital and Labor.
Until recent years little broad think
ing was given to this problem and diff
ferences were settled on the basis of
might makes right" ALI this Is rap
idly changing and we are entering a
period of new industrial relationships.
In the long g the relationship be-
tween capital and labor was that of
owner and slave, then came the period
Of master and man, then the period Of
employer and employe, each period
being a decided step forward.
In my judgment we are just now en-
tering a period of c~opartnership,
where the tool user will be part tool
owner and where capital and labor will
share more equitably in the profits Of
the business In which they are jointly
engaged.
This advance is inevitable because of
our educational system, which teaches
the workingman to think for himself.
1t is inevitable because intercommuni-
cation has told the workingman In one
community what the workingman in
other communities are striving for and
achieving.
1t is inevitable, because strikes and
lockouts can never be settled satisfac-
torily or permanently by merely rails
ing a mans wages.
1t is inevitable because it gives sta
bility to business and because it is as
advantageous to capital as to labor.
Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1917-04-27

AS a matter of fact. when a working
an increase in his wage; that is what
the papers tell us the trouble is all
about and hat is what he asks for; but
way down underneath what he is really
striking for is a larger percentage of
the profits of the business.
He may not realize this, but, sub
consciously. this is precisely what he
is doing.
No mere increase in wages can ever
satisfactorily solve this problem. 1t
can be solved only on the basis of
profit sharing.
By profit sharing l do not mean
bonus giving. l mean actual profit
sharing plans based or the earnings
of the business, with a fair percentage
to capital and a fair percentage to
labor after ordinary wages and inter-
est have been earned.
Profit sharing can be done salts
factorily only when the business con-
Germ makes public its transas tons, so
that the laborer and the stakeholder
can know as much about the business
as does the manager himself.
In the adjustment of difficulties be-
tween capital and labor l am conf
dent that open books viii accomplish
much more than open shops. c
These changes are far-reaching and
fundamental. What are we going to
do about it? What is to be our men
tai attitude? How are we going to
handle these problems?
Can we approach them from the
same point of view as did our fathers
who lived In a strictly individualistic
age? Can we approach them from the
knowledge we have gained from law
books which were written in the in
dividualistic age? If we do we will
be combating the mighty onward
rush of new thought and new condi-
lions, provided in large measure by
the scientist. the educator. the inven-
tor.
What the Future Holds Forth.
What is the outlook? Is it a sad
pessimistic future that unfolds? Does
life hardly seem worth living under
the new conditions or does it hold out
an optimistic future, with finer OPP
p~ortunities and more worth while
goals?
Let me see IL l can picture it as ]
see it. First, just a glance into the
past.
About the only goal we have had
has been the almighty dollar. The
first question asked when a man dies
is. "How much was he WORTH" will

he did for his community or his coun
try.

WHY
INDIVIDUALISM
IS AS DEAD
AS A SMELT

a IA RECENT public hearing
"A on certain proposed food
legislation which Mr.. Perkins fav-
cred and which recognized the
necessity of cooperation some one
remarked that the legislation was
. violation of tae principle Of
individualism.
Mr.. Perkins retorted, "Individ-
ualism Is as dead as a smelt."
Mr. Perkins reasons for his be-
lief are outlined in the following
article
Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1917-04-27

Have the men who have lived and
worked simply to acquire great for
tunes obtained peace of mind, happi-
ness and honor? How many of them
could answer "Yes'?
Has the country been benefited by
the course they have taken? A very
large majority of our c%ountrymen
would answer NO"
On the whole, the individualistic
age has not been a success, either for
the individual, or the community In
which he has lived, or the nation.
We are, beyond question, entering
on a \period where the welfare of the
community takes precedence over the
interests OF the individual and where
the liberty of the individual Will be
more and more circumscrlbed for the
benefit of the community as a whole.
Mans activities will hereafter be
required to be not only for himself
but for his fellowmen.
To my mind there is nothing in the
signs of the times so certain as this.
How the Rewards VIII Come.
Our only decoration-the almighty
dollar-is receding into the background.
The man of exceptional ability, of
more than ordinary talent, will here
after look for his rewards, for his
honOrs, not in one direction but in
two:-First-and foremost-in some
public work accomplished, and, sec
ondarily, in wealth acquired.
In place of having it said of him at
his death that he left so many hundred
thousand dollars it will be said that he
rendered a certain amount Of public
service and, incidentally, left a certain
amount of money.
Such a goal will prove a far greater
satisfaction TO him, he will live a more
rational, worth while life and he will
be doing his share to provide a better
country in which to live.
/ have two reasons for believing that
future conditions will be as l have
briefly sketched them:
First, because the world is being
drawn together in one centralized
community through the wonderful de-
yelopment in science and the marvel
lous work OF the inventor.
Second, because in our country
especially we are entering upon a new
stage of development, which calls
loudly for men who will render dis
interested public service.
We face new conditions, and in
order to survive and succeed we will
require a different spirit of public
service.
One reason why l am strongly for
universal military training is that IL

ston on his mind; yet as we look back
at them from this distance they seem
fnfinitesimal when compared with the
changes that have taken place in the
world the last quarter of a century and
the tremendous changes taking place
now.
George Washington vas a representa-
tive of the best type Of American a
century and q half ago. He was a
scholar, a soldier and a statesman, yet
he did not know as much about science
as a young schoolboy of to-day.
Thomas A. Edison typifies the scien-
list of u time, but the gap between
the man OF the Edison type and Wash
tngton is probably greater than the gap
between Washington and the man
whose bones were recently discovered
near Trenton, N. J., said to have lived
125, 900 years ago.
The advances In science, fntercom-
munication and In universal educa-
tdon-these three great factors account
for the ~stupendous progress this coun-
try has made In the last twenty-five
years.
They have swept away old prece-
dents, old customs, and they will even
tually sweep away many of the laws
now ON our statute books.
The man Of to-day who does not
fully comprehend all this is doomed to
be somewhat Of a failure, while the
man who does comprehend 1t will have
taken a hong stride toward success.
1t Is not many years since l was a
lhd, and yet at that time there vas no
such thing as a telephone. The tele-
graph was In very meagre use; fast ex-
press trains did not exist. 1t took
several weeks to cross the ocean, and
the only flying machine we knew about
was the much der1ded one possessed

Entering a New World.
When Abraham Lincoln was Presi-
Gent it took four days or more for a
letter to travel from his home In ILL
nois to New York. 1t took him several
days to go from his home to Washing
ton to be inaugurated. And yet only a
few weeks ago a young woman, I'M
aided and alone, travelled In a flying
machine from Chicago to New York In
eight hours and fifty minutes.
We are just entering a new electrical
world, where everything Is done, as it
were, on the instant.
Our fathers had o Of the modern

tional lines as well.
A man living in Bston who wishes

instrument to his ear and proceeds to
talk. There is hardly a miracle In the
Bible more wonderful than this.
The doctrine of Estate rights" Is
being rapidly demolished. The ma
ton is being obliged to assume many
of the functions Of government here
tofore performed by the State, and
this tendency is growing.
The State, viewed as an individual
with the right to do as it pleases with
In itself, without regard for other
States, can no longer be tolerated.
Only the nation can act In matters
that affect interstate relations, and
with intercommunication and trans
portation developed to their present
stage a considerable percentage Of a
States activities are interstate in
their effects and consequences.
The World Is Drawing Together.
We must therefore take on a new
nationalism. The world has been
drawn very closely together by the
cable and the transatlantic liner, but
1t is on the verge Of being drawn in
finitely more closely together by the
wireless, the airship and the subma-
rine telephone.
When these are practical, everyday
instruments of INSTRUMENTATION
and transportation the social prac-
tices and the industrial methods of
one nation will quickly and seriously
affect all other nations. This will re-
quire the yielding by nations of GER
tin of their indiydd ualistic rights and
prerogatives in order to safeguard and
benefit the world as a whole.
This opens up a great, new vista
1t presents problems that are In
tensely interesting and of far-reach-
ing Importance.
The period that is upon us offers
large opportunities for individual
thought, initiative and action, for con-
structive work and for constructive
craftsmanship.
The mighty changes taking place in
Europe tell us with unmistakable
voice that the reconstruction period Is
at hand. The man of the future
must realize 1t. He must be ready to
adjust himself to the new conditions.
He must have sufficient vision, intel
ligence and courage to cast aside the
methods and precedents Of a bygone
age. He must let the dead past bury
its dead. He must not look back to
the setting but forward to the rising
sun. "

of intercommunicati0n and still adhere
to the laws. the precedents and the
book learning of their fathers.
This is OUR great problem. 1t is a
difficult, complicated problem and is
causing a struggle of titanic proper
tions-a struggle to throw off in a
night, as it were. the presidents of an
old world for the realities of a new.
Precedent makes towards of US all.
But the educator, the scientist and the
inventor have left us no choice. We
must adjust our thought and action to
new conditions. -
years socially, industrially and econom-
ically have been great, yet | believe
they are infinitesimal compared to the
changes that are coming.
l believe these changes are going to
deal most largely with the relation

The Day of Individualism Gone.
In this country we have been living
in an age of the utmost freedom to the
individual. 1t has been the individual
istic period. when the order of the day
has seemed to be every fellow for him
self and the devil take the hindmost."
We have gloried in the freedom of
the individual and have practised this
freedom to a point where, in many
phases of our life, it has amounted to
license to do almost anything that we
pleased or that brought profit or
fancied renOwn, regardless of its effect
on ones fellowmen.
In the early days, when instantaneous
intercommunication did not exist, when
education was meagre and science IN
developed, what the individual did was
Of comparatively small consequence, for
his deeds did not reach very far and
did not affect many people.
With intercommunication drawing
the world together in m centralized
community. the act of the individual
can affect a large number of people;
therefore, that form of freedom which
is simply another expression for IL
cense to do as one pleasese can nc
longer exist.
When Manhattan was sparsely set
tied and most of the people lived on
its southern end it would not have
mattered much had there been a case
of smallpox at the north end. The pa
tient could have done pretty much as
he pleased without endangering any
one else.
But a case of smallpox in the north
ern end of Manhattan to-day must be
quarantined Immediately to protect
other people.

One of the greatest stumbling blocks
to progress is the human inclination to
follow precedent and old methods too
closely. We find it difficult to strike
out along entirely new lines.
Thomas jefferson, in his old age,
wrote a letter in which he said
Some men ascribe to the men of the
preceding age a wisdom more than
human, and suppose what they did to
be beyond amendment. l knew that
age [of the R~evolution] well. l be-
longed to it and labored with it. 1t
deserved well of its country. 1t was
very like the present, but without the
experience of the present and forty
years of experience is worth a CEN
fury of book reading and this they
would say themselves were they to
arise from the dead.
Great Changes Taking Place Rapidly.
The changes that occurred from the
close of the Revolutionary War to JEFF
ferson's old age made a deep impress
