itself the lesson Of the South. In its

It's vast riches and in the finding Of

operating on agrsrian and sectional
lines. States have been saved before
now by timely forecast. Only pride,
the pride of wealth and caste, viii keep
the East from seeing the truth that it
must make q partner Of the rest Of the
country, and not only by generous and
expanding policies, but above all, by
just policies, harder perhaps to realize
than any other policies. We can al-
ways be generous, but 1t is not always
easy to be just-wisely juat-eyen TO

If those he addresses are wise they
will apply his last suggestion to their
insane hostility to the income tax and
their determination to make labor and
production pay the entire expense Of
protecting their billions, and when
war comes to force the common people
to do the fighting.
