plane and the marvellous tools which
make these instruments and as the
area in which organized business
operates has expanded, the economic
welfare of the individual has become
less and less matter of individual
effort and more and more a matter
of group effort. The power of such
groups and the manner in which
they are managed is the central
problem of our time.
The supreme task of democracy is
to adjust the economic life of the
individual to these huge enterprises
so as to preserve liberty and main
tain economic justice. The dictators
of the world are destroying the lib
erty of all mankind in order to pre-
serve prosperity for a few. Our task
is to preserve liberty and attain
prosperity for all. Our task is to
show the world that under the DEM

the lesson that democracy must
learn. Just as modern war is the art
of using mechanized force on a con-
tinental and even worldwide scale,
so also the modern economic system
depends, not upon the individual
activity of men in local communi-
ties, but upon their organized activi-
ty on a national and international
scale.
From the studies of the T. N. E. C.
one great lesson is to be drawn,
namely, that the all-important char
acteristic of our era is organization.
From the time we began to build the
railroads shortly after the Civil War
down to this moment, society has
become increasingly dependent upon
enterprises which have required the
capital and labor of large groups of
men. AS science and invention have
given men new and more efficient
instruments like the locomotive. the

printing.
Let me conclude this talk by say
ing that the members of the COM
mittee we're a unit in the belief
that the problems with which we
are confronted cannot be solved by
any single group in our society, but
require the united and patriotic at
tention of all groups. Not capital
alone, not labor alone, not agricul-
ture alone, but the loyal co-opera-
ton of all Americans working as
unit with an unselfish dete! mination
to preserve our free institutions will
be effective in this crisis.

Fairer U. 5. Payment
Called for Before
Realty Tax Increase
Lincoln Park Citizens
Favor Principle Of
Rent Commission

Opposition to an increase in real
estate taxes until the Federal Gov
eminent pays a fairer share of Dis
trict expenses was voiced last night
by the Lincoln Park Citizens Asso-
citation in q resolution adopted
C. Leslie Schafer, author of the
resolution, told the group I'VE are
faced with very grave situation in
connection with the growing eX-
penses in the District, mostly due to
the great increase in the Govern
ment employment. District eX-
pensess have more than doubled in
the past few years. yet the Federal
Governments payment is not in
creasing in proportion with the
population. Instead, more of the
Districts taxable property is being
taken over by the Government"
Overton Bill to Be Studied.
A. D. Calvert, president, contended
certain sections of the Overton bill
to base the Federal payment on
Government acreage in the District
represented a ''ruSe for some Con-
gressmen to evade District taxes and
urged the gathering to read the bill.
He suggested the matter be referred
to the Laws and Legislation Com
mittee. Charles C. Gillikin, who
was about to present a resolution
favoring the plan, agreed to turn
the matter over to the committee.
The association opposed 100 per
cent natural gas at this time. The
bill to set up a commission to pre-
vent profiteering on rents was IA
vored in principle, but salaries for
the commission were opposed as ex-
cessive. Harry C. Speilman, chair
man Of the Laws and Legislation
Committee, brought up the proposal.
Police were urged to check the
traffic conditions at the intersec-
tons of Seventeenth and c streets
NE. and Seventeenth and A streets
SE.
DIR. Coulter Speaks.
Ninety eight of the first 5000
selectees examined here had tuber-
culosis, DR.. A. Barkie Coulter, direc-
tor of the District Bureau of Tuber-
culoSis, told the association. OF
these, he said, only three were
pleased that it was an excuse to
exempt them from the draft. The
remainder expressed willingness to
take any kind of medical care
to get into the armed forces.
DR.. Coulter said his staff has ex-
amined more than 14.O00 selectees
for tuberculosis in addition to their
regular work.
He said there are only $50 beds
available in Washington and Glenn
Dale, Md. for patients with tuber-
culosis where more than 1000 are
needed. Visitation to the tubercu-
losis clinic has increased from 1880
in 1886 to 33,700 in 194O During
1886, $500 X-rays were made while
In 1910, $500 persons had their
chests examined, DR.. Coulter added.
