The question is only one of means to an end. The richest men in the whole world beiieve in the ideal; witness the voluntary sharing done by the country’s wealthy men and women, from John Harvard, down through generations. Morgan, the elder, Vanderbilt, Duke, Leland Stanford, Phoebe Hearst—— list is long. Where there has much of this voluntar: sharing and the principle so clearly established, but ‘een so it should surely’ be a short step to attain the goal of a! more distribution of. the country’s wealth.

Otherwise plan fails The world looks askance at Italian preparations for taking over BEthio-. pla. Italy’s chief grievance seems to be that Ethiopia tolerates a species of banditry which knows no borders. This was the grievance Japan, ostensibly, in Manchuria, and it was almost the cause of a declaration of war against Mexico in this country, following the Villa: raid. Despite wars and famines, plagwes and floods, and the natural toll of death, the population of the earth grows. Those nations that are crowded upon land cultivated to the last eranny in the rocks, look enviously upon the wide°territories of barbarous peoples, who make only the most primitive use of their land. The highly civilized and scientific peoples crowd incessantly across. the borders of the backward and underdeveloped countries. It is the law of the survival of the fittest. The time will come when the population of this country has reached, perhaps 150,000,000, that this nation ‘will push southward and envelope Mexico and ultimately reach the Panama Canal. zone.
