Cause and Cure

Existing evils are mainly due 10 theimperfect;ons in the sys- lem Of production and distribu ton. To effect a cure of these evils, the system must be cban- ged.
 Ill the early decades of this nation the country was new and opportunities unusually abun- dant. Industry was for the mos, part carried on with simple and inexpensive 4ocls. Handicraft prevailed. Men worked separate ly on their own account. Small industry was the rule. All men had approximately the same ac- cess to the means of production, :, The wealth was somewhat equ:- tably distributed.
 Since that lime the simple tool has dev eloped into tho labor saying machine. Handi- craft has developed into ma chine production. Isolated in -. dustry hae developed -nto asso- ciated industry. Sma industry has developed into great indus. try. Gigantic trusts and com pines have monopoljz d the in, dustries. The vast bulk of til, wealth has gravitated into the, ilunuo u tt iSS.

Tko capitalists contend for low wages They contend for long .workdsye, They contend for bad conditions of labor. The workers contend for a larger portion of the result of their labor. They contend for shorter work days. They contend for better con.aitions of labor. The interests of the two classes are diametrically opposed. A bitter class struggle results. The greater capitalists crush the smaller. The concentration of industry and wealth into few CT hands squeezes out millions of men. They drop into the work king class. As a result the work ing class is now in the overwhel- ming majority. It is constantly growing in numbers. It is grow ing in the conviction that it is en titled to the full va ue of it's la DOT. These numbers, this con- yiction and this determination make it invincible.
 Its triumph is inevitable.
 The capitalists maintain theii supremacy by con rolling the lowers ot government. lhey control the President. hey con- ..ol Congress. They control the ,tate administrations. they con vrvl the state legislatures. hey control most ot the llinor Cli.- -laIs.
