Democracy is doomed if it can offer no bases for a just, harmonious adjustment of the relations bebecause unity in to give a solution to various race problems. For the want of a fundamental democracy ~ in relation~ between races, is much evidence of ill-will which recent disturbances attest. Second~~Equally has conventional..religion failed to help effectively in~ maintaining denpocracy between economic classes. It has so far forgotten the right of the common man that it, has permitted a gréat gulf to exist between those of different economic statuses, not only as regards economic oppurtunities but even as regards sympathy and understanding. It is no wonder that tension between classes is increasing under such circumstances. During recent industrial disturbances there has been so little sympathy) and goodwill between the contending ~parties that a democratic settlement of the issues at stake by the creation of common goodwill has been practically impossible. Thitd How less ~adequate or rather inadequate does conventional religion. seem before the. problem of international morality and democratic relations between the nations, the triumph of democracy is obviously bound up with the triumph of demecratic~ internationalism. there Let: us acknowledge that democracy needs sane_ religion. not. less than religion needs to.be made democratic. A materialistie democracy could only end in a struggle /of egotist groups and individuals. Democracy for its harmonious working. requires more~ goodwill] ~more social. intelligence~ and eharacter.in the individual. than~ any other Ssrm of society. It requires therefore that its social~ values be brought to the individual in the most intense way. It requires faith in man and subsequently faith in the God of the Universe~not blind_~ irrational faiths, but one - which is essentially a projection and| universilation of those social values upon which democracy itself -is built--such as brotherhood, liberty, equality and mutual service. _AutHor~s Note: (This is the second article appearing under the caption ~Applicable Religion.
