The world has gone far beyond the marks of that bygone vetrs. This-is a new \occasiori, with plenty of new oppor- tunities and new dutirs. And vet,-when you first read that quotation, ‘not lknowing that, it was taken from the tattered and dog-eared pages of a morthly magazine thirty- four years old, you thought, just as I @id ‘whben I chanced upon it, that it | was written Dut a few ddys ago to describe things as they are now. There are just two impres- sions which ‘the discovery of _this generation-old plaint and warning make on my mind; = With your per- mission, I'm going to talk five min- utes about_them. First: It is perfectly clear from the inner tones of this old magazine paragraph that. the writer was not only much worked-up over the sitna- tion but was more than a little nerv- ous about its outcome. Though his verbal coloring is restrained and cool the underlying tint is unmistakably blue. He ‘was not an alarmist and was manifestly careful to keep well within bounds in his statements. But that he was apprehensive and gloomy is equally apparent. Things looked bad. There was no doubt of that. Later on in his arti- cle he points out that, while hundreds .of thousands of wage workers are of !'sound instincts and sure to give tem- perate counsels, “ther is also a great multitude of ignorant and undisciplin- ed men who are likely to use their power recklessly and destructively. The danger thgt these last . wouldi over-rule the temperate advisers was clearly imminent. l And yet, we who!read his words, thirty-four years. later, can bear testi- | mony. that the expected crash hasn't come yet. The crisis grew, as a storm STOWs over shivering farm-lands. Its advance clouds were . ominously black -and their cavernous interiors, disclosed by the rending bolts = of angfy lightning, were seen to be craz- illy whirling masses of apparently uncontrolled malignity. When it ar- rived it tore off a few limbs from a few trees unroofed a shed, or two, and—blew over. Whercupon the sun came out again. We've all seen :he. approach of just such tempests whos threats, figuratively speaking, “sc: us stiff,” but whose actual damage was ouly what a few nafls could repair. i, was in that dim antiquify of 18: Pessimists grew gloomy and cowurds twere scared. Even cool- headed observers, of scientific turn, became thoughtful and began to won- der in their subliminal consciousness it doomsday had finally dawned. It hadn't, as we all know, now.

It is unquestionably true that no two generations have exactly like problems. Ours is somewhat different from that o 1886 in detalls. We may have to adopt slightly dlfferent methods to cope with it. They of 1886 had to use different tools from the men of 1869, if we're real descendants of those who, before us, met and ovefcame *heir foes, we shall find the right weapons and use them as ef- tectively. of worthy sires if-we didn’t.
