(By Prederio J. Hitkin.) .
The ,modern Industrial - develop

fromn 1sdO, the year after the
first protective tariff was enacted.
a The same genius for organization, the
name capacity for thoroughness, tile
same subordination of the individual

n When German union was accomplished
i in, 171, and when It had been made
permanentl as Bismarck thought, by
a the 'forcible represlsop of the social
0 democratie party, the whole attention
of the state was turned towards its
n Industries.
The firal movement was the erec
tion of a protective tariff wall about
r the country. This resulted in reliev
Ing the German, manufacturers from
foreign competition, and permitted the
application of the Prussian system of
organiation to business. As was
planned andi expected, there was an
Immediate tendency toward combina
tions of rival concerns resulting in1 the
present systeln of cartelli and syndl
Sates, which sustain practically thei
same reldtlon to German Inqaustrles as
do the trusts to American Industries.
The radical difference Is thatt the Ger
man trusts were fostered ahd encour

sinet Is voiced in a demand that the
tariff be so changed as to pi+bhlibt the
ponsiblliity of the syndicates and car'
tells charging higher prices at home
thian they do abroad.
On the whole there is little or no
objection to the German syndicate sys
temln on account of its trust feature..
The manaufacturers, both large and
small, approve because they profit by
the elimination of throat-cutting com
petition and wasteful sales nmethods;
the Industrial workers approve because
syndication enables their employers to
pay higher wages; the general publle
approves because It belleves that the
present prosperity of the country Is the
result of thie prevailing system. So
cially there is little or no enmity to
tie syndicates and cartelis. The aris
tocratic and plutocratic elements ap
prove because It is to their financial
interest, anid the sociallsts approve be.
cause they believe that every Indus
trial combination brings them nearer
to the day when everything is con=
blted In the state.
As the government itself Is some
times a partner In, tihe syndicates and
eartells-the Prussian government
owns 27 per cent of the stock of the
powerful potash syndicae-lthere is
concrete justification for the socialist
position. The German banking sys.
oiln has felt the influence of the ten
dency toward combinations, and syn
dicatus of banks are partners in indus
trial syndicates. The banks are much
nmore closely associated with the India
tries than they are in Almerla, so
solely In fact that It would be Imnpos
sible for German banks to profit fromn
the disasters befalling Industrial con
corns In times of panic.
Not only are.tihe German syndicates
different from American, trusts in their
constitution, and In their relation to
the government, but they. are organ
ised upon an entirely different concep
tion of the nature of business. In
America, and In Britain, Intense In
dlviduallnrm controls r all business
thought, and collectivism is tolerated
only when a comblnation can be ptade
In which there is money., profit for the
indivdual colnblners. Business is busl

glo-Saxon notion, and the state has no
right to interfere in It exceplt to punish
fraud and theft.

cases are not reported, and that vcr*"
few parents make any attempt to iso
late or shield thei well c.lliden, truit

The usual point .f vle)v takefl Tenems
to be th'at It la ininipolrt anand un
avoidable Ill, and that the sooner it is
over with the better. " This point of
view Is, of course, based on the In
disputable fact that most children do
have the measles sooner or later; and
that in most cases it Is a slight matter,
'and that the percentage of fatal cases
is not high. Many. children have tllom
'with no mpore symptoms than would
attend a bad cold In the head, and are
not even sent to beJ.
This attitude toward measles on the
part of the general public Is a dis
tlnctly unfair one for several reasons,
and it is a matter that calls for the,
awakening of the pu'btic conscience
as well as the education of the public
mind. O'he parentst of childrens of
school-going age' hohld be taught that
measles may be, a very dangeropm dis
ease to children under three years old,'
or. to children who are badly nour
ished or- suffering from some other
adute or chronic, disorder.
It Is contagious from the very start
when it. seems like a rather vidlont
cold in the head, and before any erup
tion apjears; and one child at this
stage may be the means not only of
sending It through the entire :school
but also of transmitting it' tu.the dell
cate small children and the young
babies in the homes.
This being the case, It li only fair
that such mothers as do not .osire
it for the children, should be Ilren a
chance to avoid It. This Is not too
much to demand whIeOj it Is known that
the state department of health for
Neow York state publishes that in one
year 'there were more than 1,200 deaths
lin 58,000 reported cases, and that
mIore persons died of mheasles, than of
scarlet fever.
Measles Is the most "eetchable" of
rall the contagious disease, 'but it is
pretty well -conceded that It can only
be caught from a person who has It:
it is not carried by the welth This beo
ing the case, its control should pot be
difficult. Every child who dgVelops
a somewhat violent attack of. coyzsa'
with running eyes and all the s·tual
symptoms of cold in the lhead, should'
be o'olated for a day or twoq and
watched for the development of the
characteristic, eruption.. When" thle
comes out it is certain the child has
not a' "old" but has msyesles, apd its
Idolatlon shoald be continued until the
eruption has entirely faded.
