Caste System In America?

"The United States will take the financial
scepter out Of the hands of London and become
the country of rich men, to which all other coun-
tries will be in debt" writes II. q. Wells, the
noted English novelist. England will cease to
be the fat land of the world. That doubtful
privilege of fairness will pass across the Atlantic.
"That does not, however, mean the American
common man will be any better off than at pres
emit The rise in prices will probably make him
practically worse off, but the American pluto
crat will become the financial master of the
world"
