and privilege. | could not vote with
a party if it were dominated by
groups who hope for any form of So
cialism, whether it be naturalization
of industry, or other destruction of
individual initiative. Both these eX-
tremes, camoufaged or open, are &C
tive enough in the country today.
Neither of these nominations would
enable these constructive economic
policies that viii get US down from
the unsound economic practices
which, of necessity, grew out of the
war, nor would they secure the good
will to production in our farmers and
workers or maintain the initiative of
our business men.
II do not believe in more than two

support great ideals and to carry
great issues and consistent policies.
Nor can any one man dictate the is
sues OF great parties. 1t appears to
me that the hope of a great MAORI

new period in American life is that
the great parties will take positive

cd upon a minority. Our soil is not
so fertile as that of Europe to many
Of these growths, because we have
& larger social conscience. We have
not the vivid class and economic dis
tinction of Europe nor have we the
depth of misery out of which these
matters can crystalize. Nevertheless,
in these days of intimate communica-
ton, social forces are rapid in their
penetration, and social diseases are
quick in universal infection.
We see that the outstanding eco
nomic phenomenon of Europe today
Is its demoralized industrial produc-
ton OF the 450 million people in
Europe, a rough estimate would in
dicate that they are at least one hun
dred million greater than could be
supported on the basis of production,
which has never before reached so
low an ebb. Some of this diminu-
ton IN production has been contrib
uted to other factors, but in large de-
gree the cause Of this steady decrease
of productivity with its shortage of
necessary supplies and its rising cost
of living must be sought in the social
ferment, with its continuous impoSi-
ton of socialist ideas.
Altruism No Base
For Real Effort
This socialism Is based on enc con-
tepuon, that the productivity Of the
human being can be maintained IN
der the impulse of altruism and that
the selection Of the particular human
for mis- most productive performance
can be made by some super-imposed
Bureaucracy. Their weakness Is the
disregard Of the normal day-t0-day
primary impulse Of the human animal,
that Is, Selt-interest for himself or
for his family or hons, with a GER
tain addition Of altruiSm varying
with his racial instinct and his de-
gree Of intelligence. They fail to
take into account, also that there is
but one sufficiently selective agent
for human abilities in that infinite
specialization Of mind and body nee
essary, to maintain the output Of the
intricate machinery Of production,
and that is the primary school Of COM
petition.
My emphatic conclusion, there
fore, is that socialism as q philosophy
Of possible human application Is
bankrupted. Nevertheless, the para
mount business OF every American
Is this business Of finding q solution
to these issues, but this solution must
be found by American IN
practical American way. based
upon American ideas, on Amer
lean, philosophy Of life 4 def
mite American substitute Is needed
for these Designating theories Of Eu-
rope. It must be founded, too, upon
the fundamental facts that every sec

professional men, the employers are

( capital depends upon our rate of saw
ings. The major impulse to savings is
their future earnings power-their
( yield of interest. Without this slim
illus of tools, the production and ser
vice will not be maintained or in
creased.
THE organization of workers to
better the condition of labor is I'M
doubtedly safeguard of equality of
opportunity and in accord with basic
principles. The essence of combina-
ton of workers is collective bargain
ity, and the recognition of the right to
combine cannot be separated from the
right to bargain collectively.
"The combination of capital for
larger unit production and distribu-
ton is in itself economically sound up
to some points Of expansion. It is
not, however, sufficiently recognized
that overgrowth of such units leads
them to bureaucratic administration
and eventually renders them less
efficient than smaller units. From
4 social point of view the moment
they begin to dominate the conmun.
ity, either in wages or prices or pro-
duction. or to prevent the growth of
competition, they are in fragrant viola
ton of the primary principle of
equality of opportunity.
Naturalization fails on the issues
on which all socialism fails-that is.
the destruction of the impulses which
create efficiency either in emplove or
employer, and in the impulse to initia.
tive; which is necessary for improve
ment and extension. No scheme has.
ed on political appointment has vet
developed the ability to replace com.
petition in its selection of ability and
character in management, and no gov
eminent under the pressure of local
political influences can properly con.
duet the risks of initiating extension
and improvement.
War PROTECTING
Called ''Unbearable."
"The price we must pay for the
invaluable principle that stimulation
of initiative, ability and character of
the individual requires free play in
compensation is that some persons will
gain much more than their service to
the community warrants. The atroc-
ity of such accommodations out of the
misery of nation at war is unbear-
able. Moreover, the laws of the
country already recognize that unre-
stricted bequest prevent an equality
of opportunity.
The inheritance tax is, theoretical
ly, direct transfer of capital to in
come in the hands of the state, thus
might be criticized, as sitting the
increase of capital Practically, this
would be answered if the state applied
such receipts to the extinction of ma
tional debt or to reproductive expen-
diture in the improvement of the ma
tiOnal properties in rivers, lands and
so on. Such a curative of unfair dis
tribution of wealth is no violation of
the economic or social principles stat
ed above.

The following statement is from
the annals Of the American Academy
for January:
"The rehabilitation of Europe is
Immediately and primarily a Euro
pean task, but it is of tremendous
concern to America if America and
other countries of the world are to
prosper; if civilization is to 60 for
ward rather than backward, Europe
must get on her feet, America must
temporarily, at least, furnish her not
only with food, raw materials and
equipment, but also with credit to f.
nance the imports she needs.
"The universal practice in all
countries at war of raising funds by
imitation Of currency is now bringing
home its burden of trouble. In ex-
IRENE cases the most resolute action
must be taken at once. In other
countries, having a lesser degree of
initiation such currency must be re-
duced and included in the funded
debt, or as an alternative, the costs
Of wages, living and international
exchange must be expected TO adjust
themselves to this depression The
cutlery against the high cost of liy-
ing, the constant increase of wages
and fall in exchange going on are
in a considerable degree due to this
inevitable readjustment"
