Home-Owning class OF Americans
heavily outnumber tee Labor oct1k
lists. and these Home-Owners are the
principal readers and supporters on
the newspapers.
The law-defiers are organised and
able TO present organized effort
against. heretofore. an unorganiSed
public. Now. however. the Home
Owners have effected an organization!
known as the Citizens Industrial AZ

In this organized work of protection

cides upon. from 800 10 $4,000. The
work Is now being carried on and with
gratifying results u can be widely
extended and more certain protection
insured by employing larger force
OF active workers. The Labor Social

OF their organization and the common.
Home-Owners are but just now begiu-

OF most serious consequences unless \
determined organised stand II mads
and tho work OF protection carried On

The officers and directors OF this ma
tional Assn are sufficiently welt
known to insure careful and honeet
use OF funds. A statement will ~
sent TO each contributor from time 70
time. and the Square Deal masasino'
mailed each month.
This Is clearly-drawn contest b.
tween the Common citizens and Home.
Owners seeking protection and the La
Dor Trust seeking to obtain control a.
affairs and take money and property
from the Home-Owners.
The strongest organization will win
and II the Home-Owners fail TO stand
together they will certainly looo at
