They do not engage in enterprises that
require the employment OF 'Our work

the desire of employing them. No.
They invest their capital, solely and
singly, for profit; and just so long as
other avenues that yield a larger per

Capitalists cannot be regarded as be

take unnecessary risks; 70 do so would
be 'foolhardy." How, then, are we to
reap public as we'll as private gain
from the capitalist class? Evidently
not by regarding them as ''cowar5ly,'' -
but by so adjusting the relation OF cap
ital and labor as to oblige the former
TO employ the latter This can be
done but in one vyay-by reducing the
rate of interest on money. The truth
of this can be seen in the fact that
''Euglishmen dare invest IN American

that English capital, obtained at lower

that the principle involved in the copying
Of the Northampton records is much moro
