Professor Emeritus, It is amazing how men with .po- litical axes to grind can misuse words. It is even more amazing how many people are misled by such mis- use. In a previ- ous article 1 commented on the misleading slogan “Human rights versus property rights,” show- ing that prop- erty rights are human rights, and that those who use the slogan are pur- posely trying to deceive. It is time that some one exposed the misuse of the term, “Social mindedness.” To be socially minded is to be con- gerned about your neighbor's welfare 25 well as about your own.

Every “share the wealth” dema- gogue is appealing to covetousness rather chan to generosity, to a dis- tinctly unrugged individualism rather than to social mindedness. He is try- ing to stir up "esentment and jealousy rather than neighborliness and good feeling. Yet these charlatans claim to be socially minded and to be ap- pealing to socially minded people! There is a higher kind of social mindedness which thinks of the high- est welfare of all.

This l.igher form of social minded- | ness thinks in terms of justice, and interprets justice to mean that each ' mature person shall have what he earns. If he is not able to earn a liv- | ing, then he must have. charity. It | does not try to humbug anybody into believing that charity is unneces- sary in a world of exact. justice, or that charity is anything but charity even when doles are raised by taxa- tion and paid out of ‘a public | treasury. This higher form of social mind- edness, while thinking in terms of justice, is not content with mere jus- tice, even when supplemented by charity. While insisting that- each shall have what he earns, it alee ine t, earning, power, shal Siig? iffused, so that “those who can not now earn & living shall be | able t6 earn one, and those who can ; now-earn a meager living shall be — able ft fo 94 Fo pn abundant living. This higher form of social tind ‘edness «is *rrot «content: with merely shouting that earning power ought td be di d, or with denouncing Sinovers for not employing more men at higher wages. It is concerned with tie problem of expanding busi- ness so that employers will be able to employ more men at higher wages. ; It is also concerned with the problem ! of preventing the supply of labor from increasing faster than the di mand for it. That is the kind of social | mindedness that gets somewhere.
