It is proposed that the induced contribution to the hadron Electromagnetic Mass Difference (EMD) by the splitting of the up and down quark masses can be extracted phenomenologically from the quark masses interpolation, in accordance to general QCD assumptions. The results are consistent with all observed EMD. The model independent prediction B/sup +/-B/sup 0/ = -2.3 +- .3 MeV will serve as a crucial test for these assumption. A useful mass formula for the s-wave hadron ground states is also presented.
