I'VE established the principle
of initiative and opportunity, DR.
Embree said, but we have moi
been nearly so successful in the
spreading our plenty to all our
people, nor in spreading the op.
portunity to all our people" Re-

poverty and squalor within ten
blocks Of city hall, equal to the
worst in the world" he said. THE

backs on the magnificent achieve

said Rather the tasks are to
achieve prosperity in human rela-

at is as inefficient as it is alb

will eat only with people who
have big ears or pale skins, to
say that all people with blue eye
must live in part of town and
al people with brown eyes, or

pie with curly hair must take
