The Open Doors
Many communities are doing
all that can be reasonably asked
toward the diffusion of popular
intelligence. The doors to am-
bition and progress and enlight-
enment are wide open, but a lot
of folks seem indifferent whether
they enter or not. After all the
principal. element in popular edu-
cation is the willingness Of the
people to be educated. The
facilities are being offered all the
time, if they are only accepted.
The cities which may lack suf-
ficient facilities in the way of
libraries and reading rooms,
ought to remedy this defect. But
until this is done there is no
reason that people should lie
down and feel that the doors Of
opportunity are closed to them.
In thousands of places where
such facilities are denied, the
people club together to form
reading circles. They unite to
purchase a selection of magazines‘
and books which are passed'
around from one to another. They
see the best current literature and
they become well informed.
The result of making educa—
tional facilities easily accessible
is to encourage a lot of people to
think about community and public
problems who otherwise ould
drift along idly through I in a
more superficial way. A com-.
munity that provides such easily
accessible facilities will in time
have a more thoughtful popula-
tion. Its people will show the
result; of brains in the way they
order their public affairs.
Yet there is no one so remotely
located that the facilities of edu-
cation are denied. Many of the
most intelligent people ar ocatcd
far from the facilities of..colleges
and lectures and classes. But in
their qllict homes they are faith-
ful readers of the newspaper
press and the literature of the
times. They know what is going
on in tho “‘Ol'ld and could take

versation than some in-metropoli—

Anti- Trust Laws
\Vllile the federal government
keeps trying to regulate the con-
duct of large corporate bodies
under the anti-trust laws, these
statutes do not seem up to date
to got the results that the people
demand. The people want a
lover cost of living, but the anti-
trust laws do not appear to have
accomplished much along this
line.
One form of regulation has been
to petition for the dissolution of
a big corporation whose activities
were regarded as monopolistic.
Buiif companies into which such
a corporation is divided, do not
wish to compete, they can hardly
be forced to do so, particularly
where the bulk of the stock is
held by about the same interests.
Many people feel that those
who are convinced of serious
violations of the anti-trust law
should be imprisoned. But it is
difficult to get such a law en-
forced. The men responsible for
the acts complained of may claim
that their method of doing busi.‘
ness would work out the greatest
benefit for the country.
