And finally, each of us according to his ability and opportunity, to
practice and inculcate respect for the law, the maintenance of order,
regard for the rights of others, admiration for the successful, sympathy
with the unfortunate, charity for all, hope for humanity, joy in the
simple life and contentment therewith.

[2] The accuracy of this reference was challenged by a young Socialist,
after the address. I have not read Capital for many years but think I
cannot be far wrong in my statement and, in any case, the conception as
stated, whether accurately Marxian or not, is the conception of all who
give vitality to Socialism in this country. Hence, I do not take the
time to verify my recollection. I am a busy man and it is no light thing
to tackle Capital with intent to extract its precise meaning. Multitudes
who have tried it have failed. Perhaps I was one of them. Of course Marx
recognized the value of Labor other than manual, but his appeal was to
manual workers and it is mainly they who have responded.

[3] Some of these counts would bear subdividing but they would come out
all right. Any syllogism will come out all right when you assume the
premises.
