REAL DEMOCRACY:
MusI:;C0(lltE:hERE.
Bishop Williams Of Michigan
Sounds Warning to Employ
ers Of Social Dangers.

DETROIT, Mich, Feb. 2O-'Mere
camouflage of political democracy" is
the incisive phrase used to describe
American institutions by the Rt Rev
Charles D. Williams. Bishop of the
Episcopal diocese Of Michigan, at the
fifth anniversary dinner of the Ford
Motor company recently
The soldiers returning from the
front will never be satisfied with this
mere camoutiage, declared the bishop,
leaving it to be inferred that those
of the people who had not been to
the firing line were so accustomed to
the fake" brand Of democracy that
they would put up with it forever.
But to satisfy the soldiers a new or
der Of things is necessary and must be
made permanent, Bishop Williams
said. Although unable to prescribe a
specific remedy, he deplored the fact
that the present industrial order made
men virtual slaves to machines. He
insisted that something must be done
to relieve the monotony of specialized
work, the doing Of the same little task
thousands Of times day.
In the past, he charged, capitalists
have given most careful attention to
material and machinery, but seldom
have had more than a passing thought
for their most vital asset, their work.
men.
In concluding Bishop Williams made
an imprisoned plea for the complete
application of democracy to ali our
social, industrial, and economic irsti-
tutions, suggesting a general if spe-
cific remedy for the evils with which
he says society is today afflicted.
