Il am opposed to the higher
education of the common people
somebody must do the dirty work
of the world; why shouldn't the
children Of the working classes be
brought up to do the work their
parents are now doing. You know
what the usual standard of en-
ployes is in our day. 1t is to give
as little as he may for his wages.
Labor is standardized by the trades
unions and this is the standard to
which 1t is made to conform. No
one is suffered to do more than
the average can do; in some trades
and handicrafts no one is suffered
to do more that the least skillful of
his fellows can do within the al
lotted days work and no one may
work out Of hours at all or volun-
teer anything beyond the minimum.
l need not point out how econo-
mically disastrous such a regula-
tion Of labor is. It is so unprofit-
able that in some trades it will
presently not be worth while to at
tempt anything at all. We had
better stop altogether than operate
at an inevitable loss. 1t was their
skill, (the Chinese) their intelli-
gence, their hardy power of labor,
their knack at succeeding and driv-
ing out duller rivals, rather than
their alien habits that made them
feared and hated and led to their
exclusion" - Woodrow Wilson.
