shan share equally. not in theory. but
in practice. We must not only talk
about these things, but We must do
these things.
We have got TO realize that many
unjust demands viii be made by labor
as they have been made by capt.

That is one OF the lessons in true
democracy that the great war has
taught us. The thing we have got TO
do is teach, not patronize
What want to impress upou you
