the world have the same capitalist
system, and they are one and all
producing a bigger pile of worms
than they can consume. For this
reason we can no longer sell from
our pile of worms, and unless you
use it to support the duck aud
duckess in idleness and luxury we
shall be compelled to stop all dig

works"

how are we 10 liveH" cried the
chickens. That is just it. You
will all starve, so you might as
we'll submit"
well, now, see here, we are
not going to starve, nor are we 60
ing to submit. We are going to
take this chicken yard and STOP
paying rent and interest and profit
and the unearned increment to the
duck and duckess. "
