A CRISIS AND THE WAY OUT
Panic Jingo Comes From Wall Street
Clique Only.

1t is strange circumstance that dis
aster should be heard at time when
the prosperity of the country is tre-
mendous. when there is no currency
initiation and when there are neither
wars nor rumors of wars. Assuredly,
there is nothing in the industrial and
commercial situation to create alarm.
The warning comes solely from Wall
street and the money -changers-the
nonproducers-and it contains a
threat. The threat is aimed at the
policies of the President. which are
also the policies of the people.
Ask one of the tinanciers what the
trouble is, and his answer will be
Roosevelt He is going to ruin bust
ness. +" Inquire what has ho done?
and the response Will be made: "He
is threatening the railroads with con-
fiscation. He wants to reduce the
capitalization of the roads. He is try
ing tounsettle values and to disturb
vested interests. -
1t is that he may be restrained from
pursuing this line of action that the
presidents of several of the greatest
railroads have arranged to meet Mr..
Roosevelt in solemn conference.
To underrate the power of these rail-
road managers and financiers would
be foolish. If they want panic, they
can create one. Let us look squarely
at the situation. Men gorged with
wealth, even ill-gotten wealth, do not
surrender it without struggle.
There are good reasons for believing
that the panic of 1898 was deliberately
prepared by these interests.
