nothing for a rainy day.
Unless the wholesale eNtortion il
stopped. and quickly. wages must &c
UP several notches. or there will be a
general industrial movement that will
halt the wheels of progress.
When the working people OF this
country understand fully how they are
being robbed. there's likely 10 BE-
widespread trouble. They will not
only demand justice. but vengeance
When they realize that they are the
victims of thieves aud hold.up men.
they are going to seek radical rene.
dies. This will come during the next
presidential administration.
Investigations now in progress all
over the country will reveal the facts.
and then il will require all OF the
Presidents power and genius TO keep
the ship off the rocks.
To be robbed wholesale, living and
dying, is fate that will never be
tolerated by free-bOrn Americans.
when they understand the situation.
The investigation will reveal, as re-
marks the Christian Science Monitor,
"a reserve of grain that will astonish
the world"
Likewise an enormous reserve OF
sugar. and OF all kinds OF foodstuffs.
The trusts and combinations in re,
straint OF trade, MUST GO. The in
famous scoundrels managing them
must be sent TO the penitentiary. or
else the people will rise en masse and
do some wholesale hanging. Whole
sale eNtortion is being practiced all
over the country. in every State and
section alike.
The President sees tho danger.
knows the cause and meaning of il.
Unless he succeed in finding an ade.
quate remedy I'm his second term. the
campaign OF 1929 will be a political
revolution.
The people will never tolerate the
present state of affairs.
starvation. deprivation. debt. misery.
the woes OF poverty-In the midst of
plenty. during period OF the country's
greatest prosperity.
Think on this subject Study the
cause and the possible cure. Vote for
Woodrow Wilson and assure a solution
of the problem. which is one of the
most vital issues of this campaign.
Let Hughes in. with his masters OF
Wall Street. then goodbye peace. good.
bye prosperity. goodbye everything ex.
cept woe and harder times, for Hughes
has no sympathy for the common pco-
pie. His views are those Of Wall
Street. His aims are those OF the
Republican Old Guard.
