sNoi Right the contrary. We want TO own the
wealth in common TO produce In common, and 10
distribute tho proceeds OF labor in proportion
to the skill aud timc devoted TO It We
want to DO away with the captahstic profits,
with the power to make money through money. We
want 10 tho proceeds Of the weahh produced
according labor bestowed, and not according 10
