Excerpt from Legal Doctrine and Social Progress The stupendous social problems of this age force as to face the question - shall remedy be found by evolution or revolution? The answer to this question is of momentous importance. It determines one's attitude toward the prob lems and marks the essential nature of his ao tivities. If he believes that revolution is the way out he Will very likely be unsympathetic With reforms, and impatient of palliative measures. He Will clothe his ideals With abundance of detail and refuse to pave the road or even blaze the trail by Which they must be reached. He complacently postpones all progress to that joyful day When his perfect ideal will be realized in one grand coup d'etat. The man on the other hand Who believes in re forms and evolutionary methods of social prog ress Will do what he can each day to gain an inch toward things as they ought to be.
