designed to remedy conditions, despite stubborn opposi
tion. But the results of abuses of a century cannot be
remedied in a decade.
In humanitarian legislation, England is far ahead of
the United States. Compensation for accidents or disabil
ity exists in only a few states. Insurance against unem
ployment is still unknown. Old age pensions are a dream
of the future. Some progress has been made toward
pure food, toward sanitary dwellings, and in the large cast
em cities for phvsieal training of school children but
efforts are still in their infancy and child labor still coun
tenanced in many sections.
The countless opportunities offered in the exploitation
and development of an empire rich in resources have de
laved the inexorable result of Amcricah civilization, if con
tinued along the lines that governed the past half century.
This result is already achieved in the older settled regions
such as New England and the middle Atlantic states,
where wealth is the heritage of the few and pauperism the
heritage of the many, where the native Americans, with
their smug, superficial and stationary culture arc dying
out ns they ought to, having ended their usefulness, and
foreigners are reclaiming the abandoned land.
The prosperity of a nation docs not rest upon the for
tunes of the few, but upon the progress of the many upon
their phvsieal comfort and well being and their intellect
ual development. The civilization that has this for its
purpose is an enduring one, because worth while.
