Quite, likely he is right, but it every citizen of the oe!-!
ligerent nations is to be attacked it follows that every citizen must
be made to contribute his maximum servict to the national defense.
The late President Harding said that in the next war he favored
the conscription of every bit of man power and capital in the '
country, ar.d the distribution of work according to the qualifica
tions of each individual. Such a procedure would not only brr ac
cording to inherent justice but apparently it will be forced by
modem methods of scientific warfare.
Kindness is the common language of humanity through which
all human emotions are interpreted and understood.

Serious thought seems to have been devoted, at the recent
meeting of the American Association of the Teachers of Journalism
THE LICENSING OF JOURNALISTS
From The Christian Science Monitor.
in Chicago, to the proposal of Mr. Justin Miller, professor in the
College of Law of Minnesota university, that henceforth steps be
taken to provide for the examination and licensing of journalists.
It is not surprising that evidences outcrop showing this tendency
of professional, if not popular, thought in the United States,
is but recently, comparatively speaking, that unlicensed, and pos
sibly unqalified, practioners found esav access to the courts and
counsel table. Likewise, it formerly was less ditficult than now
for the "practicing^' physician to play his vocation without hind
rance from recognized schools or even from the law itself. The
It
proclaiming himself self-educated and
,i
itinerant preacher, proud
self-licensed, exhorted and expounded without raising in
thoughts of his hearers any doubts as to his "regularity."
But now ail that is changed. The different schools of medi
cine ar.1 of religious thought first set the pace. Then came the
professors and deans of law with their theories of teaching which
established what were regarded as reasonable and wise standards,
later accepted and legalized by legislative enactment. Thus gradu
ally three professions wrh which the people are in constant close
touch became in a measure standardized. In some form or another
each has its code of ethics, generally binding because it has been
suoscribed to o. .students an', novitiates and recognized by the
public. Not yet has it been g?nerally agreed that prudence de
mands the application of the rule to ioumalists. so called. l
It might be conceded, for the purpose of the present discus
sion, that in the ia^, as well as in medicine and theology, certain
recognized ethical standards have been raised up. possibly by
cretive rather than careful elimination processes, while in the pro- !
fession of journalism there remains a lamentable lack of acknowl-j
edged standards or codes.
ac
(
There exists also, perhaps more particularly in the United
States than in some other countries, that more or less sacred theory
of the freedom of the press, which might be found to stand in the
way of anv determined effort to regulate or prescribe the methods
of newspaper making. And there are, as must be remembered. '
thousands of rv-.ailed country newspapers published throughout
the length and breadth of the land in whose editing and prépara
tion it would be economically impossible to employ a doctor,
even a bachelor, of journalism.
It it is sought, in the reccgmt'on of a need to educate and
e &
license newspaper wi iters thereby to raise the standards of journal
ism, it should firs mad# _T r that by no possibility has the
cart been placed before the horse. There exists already a recog
nized ethical standard of journalism, whose tenets and code are so
simple that none can mistake them. There use in licensing
a person to tell the truth, unless he ha- a desire to tell it. It would ;
be the height of folly to pass a law forbidding the readings of un
truthful newspapers until the public voluntarily shows its pref
erence for those that tell the truth. Standards of excellence will j
exist and be maintained whenever the unworthv becomes distaste
ful ar.d unsatisfying.
