PROSPERITY DAY. - Chicago,
with the aid of Big Business has de-
cided to celebrate Prosperity Day"
Bands viii lead the working people
bearing banners signifying their
craft. On that day Big Business will
illustrate big dreams of a great in
crease in business, of employment
for the unemployed, how it was
through no fault of theirs that bust
ness has so declined and that the
cost of living rose still higher.
The people are beginning to think
in these hard tines and are leaning
farther and farther toward organiza-
ton, so Big Business endeaVors to
draw the peoples thoughts into diff
ferent channel from the real cause
by having smooth-tongued speakers
preaching civic pride and some other
bunk to them. Fancy preaching civic
pride to an empty stomach Why
doesn't Big Business make a prac-
tice of what it breaches?
Here is an Illustration of Pros
perity Day" thatwOuld really be of
some benefit to Chicago:
Instead of empty assurances by
tools of Big Business, let all control
ling interests pledge us: To lower the
price of all food and commodities,
thus allowing the laborer to feed and
clothe his family without the neces-
sity of sending his babies into whirl
pool, called factory, where young
blood is sucked out by insanitary con-
ditions, and their lives crushed and
ground into dollars. To improve con-
ditonS to standard that will enable
the poor people to rear healthier chill

dren who will prove to be a blessing
to this great city of ours, not men
ace. To keep their money out of
politics and start at home to promote
this feeling of civic pride.

rades and decorations could be used
