Address on National Needs and Perils by W O Paddefoote
Foremost economists warned that property and government are mere attachments to human potential as education should aim to make people, not just teach them. Paddefoote cited 13 years with 50,000 violent deaths, only half punished severely, and homicide rising from 1,467 in 1893 to 9,800 in 1904, plus 20,000 New York children abandoned by mothers. He linked crime to church scarcity and urban-rural shifts straining schools and churches, noting cities lack room for growing street-educated slum youth.
