Tuesday, April 16,1935 Investing Out Capital How shall we invest our capital is a question of vital concern to both the rich and the poor. The man with money today can't invest it profit ably in railroads because there are too many roads al ready. Some of the roads are being discontinued. He can I invest it in steel mills to make more railroad iron for there is too much already. He can't invest in cotton mills because there are too many now with a production capacity to make twice the goods the trade needs. There is no present need for more sawmills, as many of those in operation during the past ale now idle and being eaten up by rust. Flour mills are on half time, and they offer no profits to the investor. There is no great demand for more electrical ma chinery, for the country has about as much at it is able to pay for at the present time. Really the outlook for investments in material things is not at all bright just now, and the only real solution of the great problem will be found in chang ing our investments into humanity and stop worship ping wealth. There arj- literally millions of slaves in America, initialing jHiitlberACwho are-suffering the gnawing i?ngs of poverty that kilts their ho|>es and darkens all the avenues of joy that a being is justly entitled to, at least to some degree.?When the wealth of this eoun try arouses itself to an honest consciousness and comes forward with the honest ideal that all the things God Has given man were to bless the nations and not open a comjietition that permits the selfish to starve the weaker, and in many cases the most honorable of the race. Invesment has narrowed down to the purchase of tax free bonds which are now selling higher than in many years. There is no promise of much industrial developments for many decades because we have al readv budded along that line almost to the limit at the present time. What the country needs, what the rich need and what the poor of our land need is a complete turn. In stead of investing our surplus money and energy in material wealth, we need to invest it in humanity. We need thousands of homes for the millions who are poorly shrtlerrd. We need to better educate 25,000, 000 of our American citiaens. When we have better educated our people there will be fewer calls for charity, fewer court cases Conditions will be better on every front. We are now standing at the fork of the roads wondering what to do and which way to turn. We have a few people on the one hand beckoning to the nation to come their way and follow the road of in duslralism. promising their followers a few of the scraps from their profits. The course was an ideal one in times gone by, but it now offers no more than a crumbling, decaying carcass that has overdone it self and is now dying in its own corruption. Indus trialism is being destroyed by its own greedy fangs that have torn asunder the very fabrics of equal rights and fair dealing. It has taken too much tribute. It has furnished a Brutus and placed in his hand a dagget which will eventually draw the blood from its own heart, unless a change comes in its investments and more is (ilaced in humanity and less to Shylock's cruel demands. On the other hand there is massed humanity, ap lurently unaware as to what is going on about them. They only know they are hungry today! they fear rags tomorrow and have no hopes for the next day. They know there is trouble, destructive, disastrous trouble somewhere. They know they have lost their power in government. They know they have little to do in drafting and advancing the principles-of govern ment. The mass of the people know that about all the rights they have is the op|?>runity to sit on a jury and render unjust verdicts because somebody has treated them and their business unjustly. The great masses too often fly in a rage and strike and do things they should not do because of the con dition of things which they assume are unfair to them It is undoubtedly true that unless we adjust ourselves to a system of fair play in both busines.- and govern ment that our freedom stands on the brink of a crater there to be swallowed by the greed of mono|>oly, or be be destroyed by the prejudices of an untrained citizen ship. f The Institute of Government The Intsitute of Government, which has been in existence only a comparatively short time, bids fair to become one of the safety valves for the citizenship by the University of North Carolina and proposes to give true statements of f'iftc |Trtaking t" p"litii~nl and? governmental functions of our state in a non partisan way. The Institute of Government proposes taking out of the hands ot scheming politicians the power to organize our thinking about the things that' so vitally concern us on a false base which has for so long kept us in a muddle, by giving the learned the |xiwer to out-trade the great masses of the unlearned. The Institute of Government sends its information out to all classes, giving the public a better opportunity to know its government and the obligations due gov ernment as well as government's functions in protect ing the'rights of citizens amT promoting their happi LOST: A BUNCH OF KEYS; 3 keys in a case.
