this educational training is doing
more for the world and humanity

He kept giving me money until
was greatly under obligations to him
and then he disclosed the plan. He
represented Mr.. Waverly as a scoun-
drel who was that slick that it was
impossible to trap him except by tao
tics of the same style as his own.
He said that Mr.. Waverly had gotten
the worst class of the men who ran
the city in with him, but it was i'm
possible to expose him without making
a great scandal for the city and in
which many innocent people would
suffer.
HE told me that the other school
book company had decided to raise
this scandal, and unless Mr.. WaVeFly
could be obliterated as a factor of
the school book war all these things
would happen.
"Mr. Waverly was represented to
me as man who held women very

crooked" taxation, Franklin wrote:-
'I am of the same opinion with you

By Thomas HAnt,s.,,;-

In recent. address Congressman
James r. Mann opposed Philippine In
dependence because he thinks the Pa.
cine OCEAN Is inc fighting ground Of
the future for commercial supremacy
The present war in Europe and more
or less over the world, has taught
him nothing. Let us ask why we want
IA commercial supremacy maintained
by military and naval power?9 Down at
the bottom of things 1t Is because we
have too many Of our people engaged
in. making more things than are need
ed by the people Of the United States;
SO we have to find market for them
in foreign countries, and Congressman
Mann proposes to maintain and ex-
tend. that market by military and ma
val force. IN -.
Is this a safe and righteous policy :?
How would it do to change our in
dustry so that we would not be so
anxious for a foreign market, because
we could find customers for our pro
auctions within the borders Of the
United States? ~. ..~.
If we could find some employment
for the great excessof people who are
now at work in sweat-shops. factories
of all kinds, mines and mills which
must find markets for their products
in fireign countries, and as Mr.. Mann
thinks, by force of arms, we might be
saved the expense and danger of3the
resort to force.
1t is perfectly obvious to any one
who sees and thinks that there are
too many people who are depending on
other people to give them work and
when they are given work they are
engaged in making things in too great
quantities for consumption in the
United States, SO a market must be
found abroad, All of these people who
are more numerous than the jobs. are
in daily ned Of bread, potatoes and
vegetables generally; also milk, chick
