justice. The idea of class-conscious
struggle breaks up society into Bit
terly antagonistic groups. Yet class
consciousness and the use of violence
are not confined to revolutionary
groups. The continuing incitement to
riot even by public officials and parti-
san publications, the dangerous ten
dency of some officials to deny fair
hearings to radical offenders, and un-
necessary brutality at times only tend
to fan the fame into a great disaster.
Second, the principles of the Kingdom
of God demand that democracy be ex-
tended to take in industry. Modern
industry has for the most part been
governed from above. Workers now
are not only demanding better condi-
tions but share in the determining
of those conditions and the right to
participate in the controlling of the
whole enterprise of production. Labor
rightly demands the same facility for
strong combination, speedy communi-
cation, speedy communication, and 81
multaneous action with capital is
never without. Again and again the
War Labor board with which eX-
Pres. Taft was identified, declared the
right of labor to organize and bargain
collectively. Here the speaker de-
scribed some of the plans of various
groups and establishments to give
labor representation in the councils Of
business enterprises. The plan of Eng
lish Quakers, the industrial councils
of England the Rockefellow plan and
other plans in America where the
workers are given a large share in
the management of the affairs of the
shops, the settling of disputes, ETC.,
were commented on. Third, our great
business and political leaders are
more and more standing for industrial
democracy and fair dealing. Fourth,
the church as the vehicle of Chris
tianity must be expected to do her
share toward the solving of the prob
, lens of reconstruction. The church is
, trying to bring little bit of heaven
down into this sin-cursed and hate
infected world of ours Christianity
believes in brighter homes, better
, schools, more beautiful cities and clean
er governments. Lastly, the greatest
!, champion for labor's cause is the
t Carpenter Of Nazareth, the Lord Jesus
Christ"
