EQUALITY OF REWARD.
"DISHONEST, HARMFUL AND UNJUST." SPEECH Bi PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT. Received July 13, 9.40 p.m. NEW YORK, July 13. President Roosevelt, in the course of a speech at the ceremony of unveiling a monument in New York, said that he believed emphatically in equality of opportunity but equality of reward wao one of the grossest samples of privilege. "It was dishonest, harmful and unjust," said the President. "If the service is equal let the reward be equal, but let the reward depend on service. We must no more be led astray'by the doctrinaire advocates of lawless and destructive individualism than by those of deadening Socialism."
