THE LABOUR MINISTER ON RANCOUR AND ILL-WILL
非
Mr. N. Baracs, the Labour Member of the Cabinet, spoke very frankly ne September 1st. regarding the new mense which confronts organised labour in lit. Britain. Presiding at the International Conference on Labour and Religion. at Browning Hall, when the subject for dis cussion was perils to the workers from materialism," he said that never in the history of the world had there been a more striking illustration of the dangers", of materialism than during the last few years, but the country had proved 'that there was something in mankind that could not be bludgeoned, something that guns could not kill. Even organised religion, however, had to some extent b come an echo of individualistic teaching. mad the Churches had lost their power, or otherwise how could they have tolerate ed a condition of things which was so obviously leading to untastrophe ? The war had scarcely began when pro atcers saw in it a chance of faterial gain. Fabulous fortunis had been amassed by individuals out of the materialistic Scramble. He was sorry to see even now, a more menacing character 11 our midst. We were getting necustomed pow to a struggle of organisation instead of individuals, and that struggle, unless it was well guided,,might be even more bart- fuly because more far-reaching in its res sults.
This is an nge of organisation." said Mr. Barnes. If it is rightly used, the results ought to contribute to the common good and equalise the chances of life. But if organisation" be lopsided or con trolled by those who are animated only hy materialistic consideration, then it may get a stranglehold on the mmmmu nity. Some organisations, he added, were getting under the control of those who had little iden ut reciprocal service... Mr. Barnes went on to speak of the leaders of Labuar, some of whom he said. had been to Oxford or Cambridge or some

The idealistic classes in the world today were the working-classes, who were the pioneers of international unity when others hnd scoffed at inter nationalism. Old Labour leaders who had borne the heat and burden of the day had told him in tones of deep sorrow that they found in many of the younger workers of to-day a very different spirit: from that which prevailed when they set out for better conditions. They found among the younger workers, s. greed of gain utterly irrespective of the welfare of their own class and still less of the com munity, and that there was a profiteer- ing spirit abroad never known in earlier times. They had told him with tears in their eyes that the workers of to-day were too largely influenced by the desire to get as much as they could and to give as little as they could, and the tragedy of it was that they regarded that as happiness.
Mr. Cape, MP, said they would never get a higher spiritual life among bet workers unless the latter felt that they. were not being exploited for the benefit! of capitalist employers.
