Rome, May S3. The papal encyclical on
labor begins by declaring that a solution
of the problem can only be obtained by
applying the eternal principles upon
which the teachings of the church
are based, now as ever. The law
is stated in Deut. v., 21. Thou shalt not
covet," etc.
The divine law, therefore, rejects the
Socialist solution, which would abolish
private property, substituting a collec-j
