FRIDAY. MAY 2G, 11)22. Union has some line orators in in makinir, perhaps we .should say, the,1, are already made. It is ready refresh int* to hear our hoys in the annual oratorieul contest during; the school eonuneneeinent. The winning or losing of a medal is merely incidental, j '! lie ?rreat fact is that so many try for it. The tryinjr is the thing worth while. Some'where we have read the statement that Italy has l."> homicides annually to the million inhabitants whi: South Carolina has 127 homicides t? the million. If this he : n*. and i probably is, sane peop v >.dd lie deeply alarmed. It means that Soul.t Carolina has more than eight times the number of homicides that Italy has. Nor is the situation one to be dismissal with a shrug. It is smoothing to alarm us. and that requires very deep thinking. Wo must, first of all, face the situation. This is noth- i ing to bo gained by seeking to cover it. Having bravely faced it, we may the more wisely diagnose the disease i and lind a cure for it. Within the past two years South Carolina has wit- I nosscd a number of murders, brutal i in the extreme. Some of them have been so revolting that they are almost beyond belief. No doubt many ' of those committed, and about which 1 we ha\'t never heard the details, would ] prove equally revolting did we but ( know the details. South Carolina, ac- i cording to the record, is a "bloody" ' state. It is not to our credit. Among 1 the contributing causes we mention: t mr... r ii-.. :-i- a ? ?IV 1UIIUI v \n Hlf 1?4\\ LU |IUIIID|1 IIIUM* ( found guilty. Appeal after appeal < serves to delay the meeting out of jus- < tiee. The findings of the jury are of J little weight. By one subterfuge or another the murderer is able to brinir about long delays. Is our machinery I of government functioning as it i should, when a murderer may evade ' for two years the execution of the law? Going into the court presumed to he innocent, must the condemned man he allowed to destroy the found'* tions ol government? Money play, entirely too great part in our courts By this we do not. mean that actual . bribery is so much m evidence. But i it is a well known fact that it is no ' easy thing to convict a man who car ( I command a considerable sum of : money. There are those who say ed i , cation is the remedy. This we do I not believe, for th?? more we spend upon education the worse the situation appears. There are those who tell us that poverty i? to blame. Thi cannot bo true for we are growing I richer, vastly richer than we were a 1 few short decades ago. Some would 1 have us 1 elieve the picture shows re- | sponsil le. That is impossible, for th picture show is too recent a (level/o ment to have brought forth fruit, '?n is, m ireover, merely an incident, an" works for good as well as evil. Some people tell us that prohibition is t< blame. This statement is given the I:,, in tln? fact that we tool t bo ?imr. condition under the dispensary ;ind the open barrroom. But the fact remains: We are a lawless people, and it is a situation that is alarming. Ou it ' u i oi' c hold th?

Dr. Schweinitz's Address to \mer;can Medical Association , St. Louis, Mo., May 23?That a i transition from individual to organ- 1 zed medical practice is spreading widely was asserted here tonight by 1 Dr. George E. de Schweinitz, presi- < lent of the American Medical Association, in his presidential address be- < :ore the opening meeting of the an- i lual session. That reform of the cur riculum of the undergraduate medical 1 ichool is urgently needed, that rural , listricts are apparently being drained of "doctors, and that the public is dissatisfied "with a service which is j de.votad only to the cure of maladies md the mending of injuries," were ^ ither assertions in the address. Dr. de Schweinitz called attention to 1 / A- Al- - A A \ .ne iact mm me associanon was or- , u'anized 75 years a pro and efficiently reorganized 21 years ago, making the , occasion a celebration of its diamond jubilee. The speaker, remarking that clinis, health centers, and community hospitals are developing to supply ( mmunities which are not in contact c.ith hospital and laboratory facilities, and have encountered some opposition, said, "It is useless to disregard the fact that in the fords of a thoughtful medical writer, a transition from individual to organized pras- , ticed has begun,' and that the movement spreads widely." The solution >f this problem, he continued, "must be undertaken with the protection of ihe rights of the general practitioner is a paramount duty. But the general practitioner, properly unwilling to ubmit to the abrogation of professional work, must also not be unwil ling, intelligently and in a spirit of i-ooperation, to recognize the desires the demands, if you choose of the people among whom he lives to have at their disposal the same advantage* which pertain to those who dwell in 'arger centers. "The public is not satisfied with a service which is devoted only to the tiire of maladies and the mending of injuries hut is very much alive to the advantages of the prevention of dis case and the conservation of health: and he, the practitioner, should be equally alive to his opportunity to secure leadership in such movements, a leadership which is his to hold and lo maintain, provided he approaches the problem in a spirit of cooperation and with a resolute 'will to win.'" I)r. de Schweinitz sad a recent n estgato n showed that properly conducted preventative medicine increased the number of people applyng to Lhe cooperating practitioner for treatment, and made his work simpler and more effective. He added that rural hospitals would draw young doctors to regions where they were needed. Dr. de Schweinitz told of methods being devised to keep country doctors in touch with medical developments. Ifc mentioned particularly state university extension courses for this purpose. The medical student "must have a much more evenly balanced diet" than is provided in the present curriculum. Dr. de Schweinitz asserted. i English hoys between the ages of l.r> ] *.nd 18 are wanted in South Australia For farmer apprentices. They are to , je paid four shillings a week pocket < noney, the remainder of their earn- j ngs to be placed to each lad's credit , n the state treasury at four and one;alf per cent interest, the entire sum ?eing turned over to him at 21. < rlow Our Colleges Keep Going F How have our educational institutions managed to keep up, even measurably, as they have, with the demand for the new libraries, laboratories, ree- N itation halls and dormitories necessi- * tilted by our all-inclusive educational * program? And, even more, how have * they done ti, when the students de- ( manding these facilities have been in- 1 creasing at such a constantly accel- ' erating ratio? ( The answer is lather obv! >us? 1 through the support of their former students. Gifts, of course, have come 1 from other sources, particularly in the caso of the endowed institution.:; but, either directly or indirectly, it is f .. m the graduates for the most part th~t the money is coming. With the statr universities this support, at present, may be less evident; but it will forthcoming tomorrow. Mearrvhile their alumni are active in securing the legislative appropriations that support the institutions, appropriations which, if capitalized, would in many cases far surpass the resources of even the wealthiest of the endowed universities. This means that the alumni are now a part of the university body. Not so many years ago, when we used this phrase, we imolied the trustees, and possibly the faculty, in a rather close , and self-satisfied corporation. Some times a very literal interpretation in eluded the students as a third elc j ment in the academic fellowship: ^ though their position was ill-defined ( and uncertain. But of late years the alumni are insisting, and insisting ef- s fectively, that they, too, are a part of the university. Not content with * words, for such a statement of his relationship to his alma mater probably ^ would not occur to the average graduate they are acting, and acting so ef- * fectively, and with such ample cash j reserves, that their new status cannot K. .1 : 1 41 TT r ui uciiicu mem. ncwcver, we may feel about it, the alum* : are in university affairs as they ha\ never been * before?andthey are there to stay.? Scribner's Magazine. People are Dupes Of a Definition " i Evanston, 111., May 25.?People are j 'dupes of a definition, victims of a j it of sharp practice in account" in ^ the interpretation of income, Basil j M. Manly of Washington, D. C., di- r rectir of research and investigation ( for the United States Commission on ^ Industrial Relations, told the Con- f ferenee on Christianity and the Econ- < omic Order here today. "To put in- ; dividual income accounting on the , same basis as corporate accounting, i mly surplus over adequate living wage should be counted as income," ( he asserted. Mr. Manly was joint chairman of the War Labor Board in 1918-19 and an expert of the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics ^ from 1908 to 1912. f "Income as defined for corporations " partnerships and individuals engaged in business," Mr. Manly asserted, "mean net profits, after liberal deductions for expenses of operation, maintenance, replacement, obselescence, etc. Income as defined for wage and salary earners means gross earnings with no deductions for maintenance or replacement of the human machine. "Of the net product of industry, according to the report of the National Bureau of Economic Research, af ter deducting the cost of raw ma- 1 terials seventy percent goes to wage, i and salary earners, thirty percent to ' receivers of rent interest profits. Of 1 the total national income the richest 1 one percent receives fourteen? percent, the richest five percent receives twenty-six percent, the richest ter:" 1 percent rceivs thirty-five percent. The ' poorest seventy-two percent receives 1 forty-four percent, the poorest ten ! percent receivs two and a half per 1 cent, the poorest five percent receives nine tenths percent. "In 1918, 521 persons reported in- " comes over $500,000, totaling $536, 1.19,618?equal to earnings of 500,000 people at the average ($1,078) reported for the same year for all employees normally engaged in in dustry, including salaried employees. The concentration of ownership and of the control of wealth is in evitably increasing, unless restrained by effective action." New Objective Needed By College Men Evanston, 111., May 25.?Delegates to the Conference on Christianity and the Economic Order which is in session here were urged to "seek to induce a new attitude" of service, in an address today by Prof. Harris !.!!_ n n " ^ ? - - r mnmm rvau 01 uarreit liiblical institute of Northwestern University, Kvanston. "A new approach and objective is needed in enlistment of college men for the Christian life," said Prof. Rail. "The basis should be an ordered statement of the Christian world-view, including social ideals as well as religious convictions. "Adopting resolutions is not the same as educating people. Without the education of the people there is no new order, for the basis of the latter must inhere in the people; it must be democratic in its fullest sense. Our obligation is not merely a sense r?f social responsibility, but definite realization of necessary goals and lines of conduct." Prof. Rail referred to the Metholist Federation of Social Service, of which he is secretary, as an agency For carrying on the program he Jrged, _ France is issuing new 50-centime wins in bronze aluminum. Principles for Which the Church May Stand Evanstown, 111., May 24.?Every /orker should be given an opportuniy "to enter into the more difficult .nd more stimulating problems of in"ustry," William P. Hapgood, presi!ent of a manufacturing company at Indianapolis, Ind., told the Confer cnce on Christianity and Christian Order here today. ' The conference was called by leading clergymen and lymen of the Methodist Episcopal i hurch. Mr. Hapgood made the foregoing statement in enunciating principles "for which the church may stand." The other principles which he set 'orth were as follows: "Industry :,hou'd be for the greatest benefit of all* members of society and the individual industry should be for the benefit of the greatest possible number of workers in it. An industry which serves the few nt the expense of the many is a detriment to solety." demand for Education * In Public Schools Shanghai, April 16.? (By Mail).? demands for education in the public hools of the International Settlement of Shanghai became greater in he year 1921 than ever before in the l'story of the Settlement, according o the annual report of the Municipal Council. It is held that extensive adlitions to present school facilities ioon must be made to meet rapidly growing requirements. At the end of the year eleven ichools were in operation with 1,141 oreign pupils and 1,182 Chinese pu)ils. Ten years ago only two public schools were functioning with 319 oreign pupils in one and 400 Chilese pupils in the other. Public educational expenditures for he year reached the record figure of raels 1182,287, an increase of Taels >0,000 over the preceding year. ncrease in Railroad Receipts Tokio, May 22.?According to the ailway department publication, the ailway receipt for the month of VIarch aggregated 36 million yen vh'ch compared with the corrcspondng period of the preceding year inlicates an increase by something like 'our million yen.^Whe gross total of he railway proceeds during the last iscal year ending this March reached if382,000,000 thereby scoring an in rease of 41^000,000 yen over the figires for the preceding fiscal year 920. i^hief Episodes of Civil War Days Depicted < Richmond,'4 May 25.?The glory and .ragedy of phe Confederate period of yirgjeiu history.. vras portrayed in /ivid floats m lohg processions, which Matured the fourth day of Virginia listorical pageant.
