Following ls an outline of the argu- ment submltted by Mr. Percy Pope in his excellent address an Problems 0! Reconstruction given in the Cliarlottb town Board of Trade Rooms on Thurs- day evening; Reconstruction. .\lr. Garvin, one of i.he'most clear sighted of our great publicists today, says of those who hold to the pre- war state of mind: "They seein tm capable of realizing that the world os it was more his iiolugo is woot au-ziy_ that since the summer of-1914 it. luis disappeared forever; without ri single main exception all the fac- itoi-.- of .\’intioii’al and lntemationas lift- are profcuntiiy, irrevocably changed. Nothing can over be the sa-ine again. lt is time tonwakon to the i-caliiies of thing.-i--ol' events and prospects at homo and abroad." Ou “\'C'l'¥ hand there is happening or threatened the inoral equivalent of that deadly thing which soldiers lighting at night or in the mist knew as loss of direction." ' “Any one who goes about and listens to the tone or talk- in ull classes may note how ideas for all chief purposes are little better than fi hundred years behind the time," “lt is so with regard to the future intercourse of peoples, the future rrltitionsbips of social classes, the future of industrial output, trade, nuance, public organization and in tornatlonal management. We must base ourselves on fundamental per- manent reality concerning all these things, and we must throw the pre- war stnto ol' mind to the scrap heap." if this be true of those who are living in the centre of these great movements must it not be -much more so of us who have only lt-it in a minor degree and from nfar their ei’l’ects°f Yet some of the problems nriuing tliercfrotn :irc pi'esslni; themselves up~ on our attention. Notably among those is that of the future relations of Capital anti Labor. As an after- math of the war which forced us to .experiment with State control_ there has been engenderetl, -on the pun of Labor, ii determination to bring about lclizingcs which pintnticaily involve is i I revolution in our old methods. We lterc but dimly realize the magnitude and iuzportancc of the utovement which is throwing the industrial world into turmoil but we will soon- er or later feel the results and will bc forced tc adjust ourselves to the new conditions. We should, there- fore, strive for :t better intellectual grasp _of the fundamental _features- "tliose powerful simpliclties which can always guide judgment through confusion." Thht will give us direc- tlnii and enable us to build our new structures on sound foundations. Beside the problem of Capital and Labor there are those connected with tho interchange of ronimodlties, In- volving the undue subordination 0! transport to incompetence and selfish indivldunlisnr with the kindred pro- blems connected with Finance. 'lt is needless- to say that we cannot hope to solve these, but wc can strive for o. larger measure of enlightenment than we at present possess and which we will find very useful as a. guide to action which otherwise would lack ln- toliigent direction. With this hope, let us consider first, this evening, the relations which ut present exist between Capital and Labor. As lt appears to the ordinary man the difficulty centres around tho question of wages. Wages are based upon the incl. that there are two clas» et-s in the conimiinlhy-one which has possessions in land, mines, ships, rail- ways_ machinery, money, and organiz- ing ability, and the other which not possessing such advantages is depend- ent upon the capitalist class for ine opportunity to obtain ti livelihood. lt is. however, apparent that either is to some extent dependent upon the other. Unquestlonably the'capitallet cannot iitllizc his -advantages, save ae regards his individual efforts, tmleeu no can obtain the assistance of labor. When tho supply of labor is ln ex- cess of the demand-as has generally been the case in the past-it follows that competition among laborers tends to forceu wages down to the bare subsistence line, and ber-led to laborers -being considered not as hu» (Continued on page 13 sAMAniA'oAr1'unsa --n|_ sanivm, miy_1'sl-/riio mais or Admiral Kolohek have oepturel ‘Bem- erie, en important city on the Vows Rivet-.tile Uh-einims press burden herennit-ieeru frouevnllla- former source. - ` _ L i ‘°- " f ' ’§'.. i ='g'.` 1 ,,-
