-PUBLICITY AND WRONG DO
ING.
Prof. Taussig, of Harvard, in
his book, “Principles of Econom
ics,” touches directly upon many
of the keenly alive questions con
fronting Americans today. In a
discussion of “the growing al
truistic (impulse,” he (refers to
the anthracite coal strike and
shows that it was settled by pub
lic opinion, rather than by any
legal rights Which belonged to
cither side of the controversy.
The growlh of an altruistfc
spirit which regards questions of
living and wage as social ques
tions and not individual ques
tions is one of the most patent
developments of this age. “Suf
fering will not be endured as it
was in former times,” says Pro
fessor Taussig. “The mere de
scription and exposure of it
means that something will be
done to stop it . ... The
steady development of social leg
islation and the increase of char
itable and educational endow
ments are other results of the
sense of common interest, of the
growing altruistic impulsel”
The altruistic impulse has been
encouraged by publicity. The
breaking up of the old system of
partisanship and adherence to
“leaders” has encouraged the
Ireal workers for betterment in
the industrial and social condi
tions of the people to make
their appeal direct to the pub
lic through the unprejudiced
press and improvement is being
noted all along t-he line.
Secretary Redtield says that, if
manufacturers lake from their
wage earners what the manufac
turers lose of tariff graft, the
government will “see about it.”
Several stall* legislative com
missions are investigating the
wages of girls. Inquiries 'into
the white slave traffic are direct
ed to the men that get a profit
out of it; and they are. directed
to the licenesd traffics that stim
ulate it). Welfare boards are
bringing o light the connections
--.between causes and effects. Keen
political leaders are endeavoring
to make human rights the firs)
concern of government,
Professor Taussig’s phrase is
a happy one. These are “results
of the sense of common interest,
of the growing altruistic impul
se.” In all such activities the
people may not be certain that
they ant doing just the right
thing; but they are going to keep
trying until they have learned
what the right thing is. They
may not know where they are go
ing; but they are knowingly on
their way and they know (that
publicity is their most effective
weapon.—Ex.
