To-day, he declared, property a kind of permit was regarded as to possess without working, and the grave misuses of property had led of greed and idleness. Lives that performed no toil and were therefore unproductive were เ scandal to the whole community. Equal ity of opportunity was impossible under a system like ours, which distri buted wealth with such gross injustice. All the meritorious citizens of London did not live in Mayfair, and a society in which this injustice existed would never be a happy ono.

Mr. H. S. Slessor (standing counsel to the Labour party) contributed a paper on the same subject. The laity, he declared, Hagged behind the clerics in their appre ciation of the importance of a right order ing of property in the interests of religi ous life. Nearly the whole priesthood was beginning to recover a sacramental sense of the privileges of property, but large masses of comfortable Churchmen and women were still fearful of Labour, trade unionism, and the rising claims of the
masses.
Papers followed on Capital. Labour, and Competition.

The Rev. Charles E. Raven, editor of the Challenge, declared that the existing industrial system was built up under the influence of a wholly unChristian philoso- phy of life. The competition system placed Satan on the throne of the uni verse; but it had failed to work, and was producing its own overthrow, Industry had become dehumanised, and, in order to meet the Federation of Employers, Labour had organised itself into vast. unions in which the human being became amera cypher. In the interests of callec- tive bargaining we got the cult of ca canny, and competition had given place, not to liberty, but to slavery. The sub- stitution of soulless public companies and soulless trade unions, for the old relation ship was a change for the worse. Thou- sands were looking for help and guidance Max. to. Christ and his Church. Were they to look in vain?

Mr. H. E. Blain, ass start managing DAIRY FARM NEWS director, London General-Omnibus-Co... Ltd., dealt with the matter from another point of view. He traced the history of the relations between Capital and Labour. and divided them into four epochs, pame ly, the patriarchal, family, or household system; the guild or handicraft system; the domestic system; and the factory sys- tem. We were still in the fourth stage, but it was accentuated by the combination afmasters, and even, industries trusts and combines, and the combina tion of workpeople in trade unions, There was at present overwhelming and ghastly unemployment eaused by trade Also a prime selection of Own Fed Pork, depression.

oa industrial matters. We could not ment." make progress with discussions conducted ia different campe, and he suggested that a dozen men from Capital and a dozen from Labour should allow themselves to be metaphorically locked up like a jury until they had come to a recommendation for a solution of our prezent industrial problem. Such a conference would in- clade
amongst its subjects for settlement such questions na wages hours, and con- ditions. arbitrative strikes and lock-outs, production, unemployment, organisation of labour, division of profits, Labour's share in the control of industry.
The concluding paper was read by Mr. John Ames, general secretary of the In- dustrial League and Council, aiba slealt with arrvice in industry, The immediate future, he said, did not look very bright. but it would not be improved by each section gunging its own gait. If war could inspire such great sacrifice and ger- vice, surely the ideal of nobler, freer,
and fuller life could inspire great attain ments to secure the peaceful development of commerce and industry. This could only be done by service, by the union of those interested, and by spiritual ia- fluence, as opposed to, thun material, being developed in industry. The Industrial
and Council "pointed the way through the Whitley Councils.

The Bishop of Exeter said many speake ers had referred to the present condition of affairs as if it were the result of inadequate Government action. What we were troubled with was not that the Gov- ernment had not enough power, but that
had too much. We
were not merely Government-ridden by the British Govern ment, but by foreign Governments. The reason why there were so many out of work in Birmingham was that they were being under-sold by the Germans, and this was because the German mark had depreciated, That was the result of Government action.
