Social Invention.


The world has always been in need of
great social inventors. More than ever
1t will need them to solve the stupendous
social problems certain to develop after
the great war.
There can be no return to pre-war
social conditions, with the injustices which
the war has brought sharply into
relief. But other intustices-even confu
sion amounting to chaos-may develop In
the absence of truly efficient plans for
social reconstruction.
Russia's present plight is ample indica-
ton Of this.
Russia was q land Of privileged tyranny
Socially 1t was an architectural abomtna-
ton. Master minds were indispensable to
make 1t a pleasing place wherein to dwell.
Master minds doubtless were available.
Alas! They had not been giving sufficient
thought to Russia's social problem. And
the task of reconstruction fell to vision
aries unequal to it.
We must take warning from Russia q

cial .readustments are inevitable. II their
working out Is left to men who feel keenly
but think thinly can we hope for real
betterment?
Some years ago Louis D. Brandeis, now
supreme court, made a statement much
to the point at the time he made it
ard still more to the point today. Said
Mr.. Brandeis:
There are vital economic social and
industrial problems to be solved And
for these we need our ablest men,

ability, like those who have worked on
industrial inventions and enterprises.
. Yeti In the past practical men OF
high ability" as a rule have failed to
tackle social problems, they are not alto
gether to be blamed.
The spirit of the past has been excess
sively indiyidualistc and to an inordinate
extent msterialistic. Accomplishment for
self. gain for self. pleasure for self has
been the teaching OF our yesterdays.
Under such teaching the social sense was
OF necessity well night stlfled.
But circumstances are now compelling
new views of the meaning and RESPONSE
blities of life. The old selfish individual
ism invites social disaster. Practical
men of high ability must turn their
thoughts to social rebuilding or perish In

That is the situation which confronts
them.
1t will not avail to dismiss with bitter,
contemptuous words the mnrmurings and
protests Of those oppressed in the present
social order. The justice Of the protests

devising OF effective socla, reforms.

great Importance and one that Italian

RUSSIA A VICTIM

NO one imagtnes that the Russian

sian newspaper Vecerni Cas- March
l8l reproached the allies for their ig-
norance of Russia. for which they
paid very dearly. and we even more
dearly" and in the coruse Of this ar
ticle the writer says:
The Germans have made thor
ough study OF Russia. During the
past 20 or 80 years. when it be-
came clear that an armed collision
was inevitable, the Germans in
formed themselves of the whole re-
sources OF our country, and entered
into the war with us armed not
alone with guns but also with a
most detailed knowledge of our in
dustrial. economic and intellectual
life; not to mention the fact that
during the past so years the whole
OF Russian science and almost all
s. our intellectual activity lived and
developed under the domineering
influence OF the German mind. Our
ology is German, while our So
cialism also bears the stamp
Made In Germany"
The statement IL worth studying,
and particularly the last part OF 1t. We
may detest kultur as we detest poi
son gas. which. however we did not
hesitate to use ourselves when the
military need for it became urgent;
how much more reason is there to op-
pose German kulture, which we con-
slider detestable thing, with our own
culture, which we consider a noble
thing. Before the war we were perhaps
q little too contemptuous OF ideas; We
took our soap too much for granted

tcal freedom. Anglo-Saxon democracy.

tematic thoroughness: Russia was
just near enough to see the tops Of the
German cultural pyramids, gilded. like
their Egyptian prototypes. to catch the
