There IS something very significant III
me fact tia. in London, thsrichest CITY in

for bread for themselves and families. So
much money ID there 10 London and the
island around it that 5000, gOG, 600 unu

nations.
The complaint in London, rs IN this
country, is thai men cannot get work D.
shish 20 gain subsistence. Why can hey
Tot get work. Principally because Of Ia
Dor saving machinery.
The people can only consume a certain
amount OF the proiucDs Of labor. When
there is only o certain amour. Of machine

Der OF hours per day and machinery is it
uoduced so that four men can DO the
work Of five, one nan is thrown out Of q
means Of support. Then, in a radon cor
tanning five million working men, one mil
lion would be thrown out Of employment.
aud By continuing the hours Of labor the
same, the mere labor saving machinery Is

Bot this does not mesn that lsboriug

that it should De abolished. Il ought to bs

working day is now ten hours. We will
suppose that there are FIVE million labor

that four million with the use Of machinery
can produce all that the people Of the

are thus thrown out Of employment. Then
by making the day eight hours instead OF
