FREEMEN
IN GARY

There Is third CLASH or type, of peo-
pie In Gary who recognize that the nu-
man side OF Gary's civil and industrial
life is dominated by the Wall Street
capitaHstio agents as do those whom we
have for the purpose OF differentiation
designated those of the second class.
The men and women composing this
third class ara unwilling to submit to
the dictatton of these Wall Street agents
and hence are opposing them in every
legitimate way possible and at all times.
This class refuses to acknowledge the
superiority of these Wall Street capt.
alists and their political hirelings. and
they hold openly and boldly that the
right of the individual is sacred and in
no manner is 1t subject 20 the viii or
whim of Wall Street or its political
hirelings. They claim and take the right
to act and to think for themselves and
refuse to stoop like fawning sycophants
TO the arrogance of these assumed sup
ermen. This type Of Gary citizen is
rapidly increasing. SO much so that
we have every reason to believe that by
the 6th day Of next November they will
constitute by far 2 large majority Of
the voters OF the City of Gary.

condition or industrial servitude. At
heart they are intensely opposed to the
system that assumes a superiority of
dollars over men. but have not the
courage to face a determined opposition
with perhaps loss Of position and en-
! forced removal through lack of employ
ment from the city. 1t IS a well known
fact that any workman who opposes the
will Of Wall Street or its political agents
has small chance OF retaining his post
t1on and consequently his residence In
Gary. Even business and professional
men and women as well. have been
made to feel the displeasure of the Wall
street agents 10 such an extent that
rather 10 continue the unequal struggle
they have given up and gone TO other
towns and cities where they are more
free to live their lives as independent
citizens.
This second type or citizens is num-
erous There lis no way of determin-
ing their proportionate number but
Judging from the expressions OF this
sentiment one is forced TO conclude that
they constitute a large number of peo-
pie who live in the city. What's the
