"Investment of superfluous' Income In- providing opportunities for em ployment,' assuming that the labor employed produces results whloh aro really useful, Is to-be considered an act of real liberality particularly, ap propriate to the needs of our time." ) The romedy for the present econ omic evils, the pontiff wrote, Is a return to the principles of "right, reason and Christian social philo sophy." regarding, mutual cooperation of capital and labor. "Relations between capital i and labor," he wrote, "must be deter mined according to the laws of strictest Justice supported by Christ ian charity." . . , . ' The encyclical demands that free competition andi economic domina tion be kept within Just and definite limits and be brought under the ef fective control, of public authority. Those who- work, the Pontiff saldi. "should have, an ample' sufficiency ln the form of wages' which will en ablo tho- worker's family to live do cently and' to accumulate a "certain moderate' ownership' Wage contracts, said tho Pope, aro not. essentially unjust but, under present conditions, he advocated some form' of partnership- such as already has been tried. Wages, he satd, must be based on the kind of labor, the general- prosperity of the world and- the condition of bUBlnesB, He adds a "word of praise" for. wage systems which- increase the worker's pay as his family burdens lncreaHO. Unemployment, ho said, Is & "dreadful scourge," and referring to the present depressions, "it causes misery and temptation to the laborer, ruins the prosperity, of the nations, and endangers public order,' peace and tranquillity the world over.".
