SOME PHASES OF SWEATING SYSTEM IN CHICAGO 645
their origin and in their development and at the present time, and after the study of the causes that have led to the develop- ment of the sweating system, and those that are responsible for its persistence, and after the conception of the ideal to be attained in the garment trades, and of the means that seem most likely to be able to bring about the realization of this ideal, one feels that two principles may be recognized. One is that there is a lack of control, a lack of best adjustment or adaptation in this part of the social situation. The other is that a part of the cause for this has been the lack of the recognition of the ethical relation that is involved in all our dealings with one another as men and women living together on this earth. There has been a lack of fellow-feeling, of social consciousness, and of social conscience. While desiring much for ourselves we have been regardless of what it has cost others. What we now wish to bring about is the chance for each man to develop every side of his life fully; to have as much "health and wealth and socia- bility and knowledge and beauty and righteousness" in his life as his nature is capable of or may be made capable of ; to have "more life, longer, fuller, higher."
