UNREADY ].
FORDEMOCRACY
BAKER STATES
Gave Excellent Talk to Stu
dents at Convocation
This Morning. +.

Maintaining that countries Of the
ancient east must be made ready for
democracy before that form of gov
ernment can be successfully intro
duced. to them, DR.. Benson Baker of
New York city gave an unusually ear
nest and forcible talk at university
c~onvocation this morning. IS =
DR.. Baker, who spent sixteen year.
Of his life in India as a missionary,
cited facts about conditions and prog
ress in India to show the truth Of his
statement. Five points were taken
up concerning. life in that, country
the home, state, school. church and
shop.
There is practically no home life
in India" DR.. Baker SAID. Girls are
made the heads of homes at the age
OF ~ years or less, when they are
scarcely able to care for themselves.
The state is divided into factions, the
caste system being followed out rig
idly. Children are usually taken
from school at the age of s or 10
years, that Is the great majority. Diff
ferent religious groups prevail, the
two main ones, Hinduism and Mo-
hammedism, being radically opposed
to each other. Economically the
country is not ready for democracy.
christianity prepares the way for
~ 1SkNSk ~ 4klC
missionaries are largely responsible
for advancement in the far east"
One thing brought out by Mr..
Baker, which is of special note. The
work Of the British government is to
be admired, he said. America should
stand behind Great Britain in the de-
velopment of the east.
DR.. Baker will speak at the meeting
of the university Y. M. c. A. this eve
ming and at college church on Sun
day morning.
In introducing the speaker Presi-
dent Kane announced hat the con
vocation next time would be in the
nature Of a memorial in honor OF
John Keats. Dean Vernon P. Squires
will be in charge of the services. .f.s
h meeting this morning was held
in the armory building instead g OF

accommodate the crowd turning out
to hear DR.. Baker.

matter?" he was asked.

You write a statement. and

time were organizing banks under the
direction of A. c.. Townley, as they
