Greed grows with groveling, and
some men have a positive genius for
IT. Witness the millions that they are
piling up to no good end. and for no
great purpose. These millions speak
well for their greed--if anything can
speak well of greed-and this is the
only tribute that will ever be paid to
them-that they succeeded well In
what they started out to do. AS wit.
nesses TO their success they can call
the ghosts of ruined men, hungry
women and starving children, and
there will be no one TO dispute their
testimony. Such is materialism In fits
