Present Economic Order
Arouses Ire of Conference
Speakers, Say Delegates
(
(Editor’s Note: Following is the
third of a series of four articles on
the findings of the committee which
attended the National Student Con
ference at Milwaukee, Wis., during
the vacation.)
By WILLIAM SCHULZE
“Youth today is in a mood to
question and to doubt all the atti
tudes, customs and institutions on
which society has Ibanked—the
home, the schools, the church, and
the ecenomic order are being
doubted and scrutinized,” said
Dr. A. Bruce Curry, of New
York, addressing the first general
meeting of the National Student
Conference held in Milwaukee dur
ing the past Christmas vacation.
That our economic and social or
ders are occupying a place of in
creasing importance in the minds
of the present student generation
was evidenced by the following
finding, accepted unanimously at the
close of the conference: “We be
lieve that a larger place should be
given in conference programs for
industrial land social trips, that
more delegates might have the op
porunity to take them in. Further
more, some consideration should be
given to cities where conferences
are to be held, with reference to
the possibilities of these tours.”
The conference was critized by some
for not having given economic prob
lems the emphasis that was accord
ed questions concerning war and
the races.
The present economic order, based
on production for profit and not for
use, is wrong, declared some of those
in attendance at Milwaukee. “The
principles of Jesus put into prac
tice would mean the abolition of
the profit system,” stated Kirby
Page, editor of “The World Tomor
row” and speaker at the conference.
Of the chief criticisms of our
present order one was that our super
efficient, machine measured, quan
tity worshiping industries are kill
ing the personalities of the work
ers. The emphasis on the supreme
value of the individual human per
sonality, as exemplified in the teach
ings of Jesus Christ, was declared
incompatible with the generally ac
cepted attitude that personality
finds its greatest development in the
domination of others. Our'first duty
is to free our own personality and
then to find its development in the
service of others.
It was further asserted that we
must find the “golden mean” in a
compromise between the attitudes
of the orient and the Occident to
ward life. To be happy, the oriental
transcends the material life, but he
is in poverty more than he needs
to be because he is not practical

enough. In turn, we westerners im

quered us.
The minds and hearts of the stu
dents were challenged by the view
they were privileged to have of the
industrial workers they visited in
Milwaukee. On^one afternoon four
hundred students went through four
of Milwaukee’s leading industrial
concerns. We investigated the work
er's earnings to see if they were
getting enough to live in comfort.
We investigated working hours, pro
tection against sickness and old
age, safety devices for workers in
dangerous jobs, sharing of profits,
and steadiness of employment.
At present the organized labor
movement appears to be the work
ingman ’s only way to compete with

to organize, why not the laboring
men? If the labor unions are bad,
do not damn them, but participate
in their improvement.
We in America have grown up
with the existing labor conditions,
and we do not stop to think whether
they are wrong. The nation is now
in the grip of a conflict between
thdse who have and those who have
not property and privilege. It is
the duty and privilege of the edu
cated youth of today to associate
themselves with, and assist those
who are poor, oppressed, and ex
ploited.

“Personality” hair cuts ob
