by the social agencies, lies in the
fact that no provision is made to
care for children after dark
through the chiId-care centers of
Hartford.
Some manufacturers were reported
to have told representatives of the
social agencies that unions were re-
sponsible for their placing married
women with children on the. night
shift because of seniority clauses.
Morris told the social workers that
seniority rights do not require that
any workers be placed on certain
shifts.
He said that some manufacturers
in their desire to get young women
in their plants gave them the pref
erence of the day shift as an in
ducement.

TWO
DECRY SOCIALISM

In recent years a number of clergymen
and religious educators in their zeal for the
welafer of the common man" misguided
advocating some form of socialism for the
United States. Therefore, it is refreshing to
know of many church dignitaries who have
bitterly opposed this economic fallacy of their
fellow-laborers in the vineyard. We would
like to quote just two Of them.
The Rev. Observation-Disclosures Concordia
Theological Seminary, st. Louis, Mo-, in his
recently published book "The Business Man
and the Church." says:
"a feeling exists among certain religious
people that there is something inherently
wrong with the profit motive. If no one
is allowed to make a profit, no individual
Will start an enterprise which hires others
to produce things for sale. Everyone who
hopes to make a living must seek personal
service, or a wage or salaried position in a
productive industry. Without profit there
will be no productive industries under pri-
vate ownership or control, for the reason
that no one would have a reason for start
ing or even continuing such an industry. If
there are no private industries to furnish
JUS, anu every Ouc HluSL look lOr q JOD IOT
himself instead of making jobs for others,
there could be only one way out. That
would be for the government to take over
all industries and find jobs for everybody,
would be communism.
Pope Leo XIII in his Encyclial Letter "The
Conditions of Labor wrote in part record
ng the interference of the State into the af-
fairs of the individual and family:
"Such interference is not only must. but
Is quite certain to harass and disturb all
classes of citizens, and to subject them to
odious and intolerable slavery. 1t would
open the door to envy, to evil speaking, and
to quarreling; the sources of wealth would
themselves run dry, for no one would have
any interest in e~xerting his talents or his
industry; and that ideal quality of which so
much is said would, in reality, be the level
ing down of all to the same condition of
misery and dishonor.
"Thus it is clear THAT THE MAIN TEN
EFT OF SOCIALISM, T HE COMMUNITY
OF GODS, MUST BE UTTERLY REJECT
ED; for it would injure those whom it is in
tended to benefit, it would be contrary to the
natural rights of mankind, and it would in
troduce confusion and disorder into the COM
monwealth. Our first and most fundamen-
tai principle, therefore, when we undertake
to alleviate the condition of the masses, must
be the inviolability of private property"
There you have the studied opinions of a
prominent educator and a Pope of the Ro-
man Catholic Church. Adherents of all re-
ligions here in America will do well to heed
them.
