They condemn unions on account
of the action Of some of our leaders
who have been tempted to go
against us. Do they condemn Chris

LOOP WORKERS LUNCH. -
Wage slaves, and am one, want to
know how easy it will be to gain in
dependence, today and not tomor-
row, by a system of cooperative
ownership.
Several thousand people working
in the loop read The Day Book. We
all want the same thing 49, more
money. We can't get a raise and
there is no one to organize US. We
spend an average of so cents a day
for meals; 1000 of us spend $500
day, approximately $4,000 a work
ing year.
One thousand could organize a CO.
operative society and then buy a
cafeteria, costing each of us not
more than $40 each. Those who
could not save $40 could borrow part
and put up their share as security.
Now we eat in our own place, we
benefit by the profits, we are employ
ers and the profits we can reinvest
in other lines of cooperative bust
ness like this. We have the couec-
tive brains trained to make money.

BREVrTY, GOOD! BUT LETTER
TOO L0NG.-Brevity is the soul Of
The Day Book.
If One-tenth of the time spent in
the company Of the uneducated were
spent with a dictionary there would
be no illiteracy. And, personally, I
am certain that l work physically as
hard as anybody and yet have
grounds for considering my yocab-
Ulary and general knowledge consid-
erably above the average.
If it is in a man to want to get
above the vision of the crowd he'll al
ways find a chance in this age of I'M
derstanding.
AS I started to say, brevity is the
soul of The Day Book, and if you
want to crowd a lot of meaning into
a small space then in choosing words
consistently big or unusual are you
insofar according with its policy? If
in this advanced age a reader is too
lazy to look up a word or too proud
to ask it's meaning, then he is work
ing away from the real aim of The
Day enlightenment.
Any one who doesn't know how he
stands economically, that is, that he
belongs to one Of the two divisions Of
mankind whose interests necessarily
cOnfict-the employer and the en-
plOyed-or better, the rulers and the
ruled-then regardless of whatever
else he knows he is Of the most UNI
educated Of persons. To him there
can be no unity of thought if he tries
to philOsOphize. His mind is a chaos
of small cOnsistencies. He is a ra-
tionaIist in one department of his
thinking, an empiricist in another
