al Carneys Point. The addition will

Here is a faint conception of the
tremendous new enterprises of the
Money Trust Now | shall quote
the Wall Street Journal of July 10Th.
will the demand for war material
outlast the conflict? Will the great
industry that has been established in
so short a time end with the war?
1t is noticeable that those concerns
that are erecting plant extensions or
new plants to take care of the war
business, are not providing temper
airy and Inexpensive structures. They
are building modern ana permanent
structures of brick or concrete and
steel.
More Wars to Come
IF the war continues or is fol-
lowed by others, the munition
makers would be in a position to
reap enormous profits as a result
| Of having the plants ready"
Yes, II f~ar-sighted financiers will
see1to it that this war is followed
by others" And they will reap
| enormous profits"
But who, at the dictum of the
Money Trust, will toll to pay for
those untold millions to be spent
by our country on armament for
the upkeep Of the new war plants? |
Who, at the dictum of the Money |
Trust, must shed their blood in the
wars that are followed by othersD?
Brothers, you and !.
Yes, my thoughtless brothers,
and then we, too. shall echo the
bitter groans we have heard emitted
by despairing millions, staggering |
under the military burdens of
Europe's monarchies.
And now are we TO be the dupes
Of Wall Street patriots?
If we investigate the patriotism Of
the members Of the Money Trust we
shall find it TO be thin-skinned, in
deed. Their ambition is to amass
great fortunes, and then to seek
their homes abroad. They choose
new homes in France and England
for reasons such as to escape UNI
pleasant public inquiries, or that
they may lead lives that would not
be approved by their fellow country
men.
