TOO MUCH TO EAT
 WE MUST STARvE

It is remarkable how the capital istic press is talking these days. It is not often that we run editorials from them, but this one is too good to miss. Just read the last sentence of this San Francisco Calr' editor ial and add "The only new method that will solve the question is the program of socialism"
 Are We Too Productive?
 Among the !" five hard and terri fically challenging facts" which a writer in the Dial says are worrying farsighted American business men are these
 1. That now. thru war orders we have speeded up industry to an ex- tent which has increased our annual volume of manufacture from about $25, 5,000, 100000 to about $46,OO0,- 100000, utilizing every human being hale halt or lame who could be impressed into service; raising The enormously grave question whether we can hope to keep this pace on the cessation of war orders; and what will happen if we cant keep this pace.
 2. That labor has become accus- toned to somewhat inflated wartime standards of wages and living, a will (from the point of view of the business man) present very serious psychological problem in itself when necessity calls for re-establishment of levels more normal. Boiled down these two propositions are:

ing picture theatre completely wiped out the Amusement zone at Camp Lewis.
 The Camp Lewis fire brigade after heroic work succeeded in preventing the spread of the conflagration to the other structures of the camp. The property loss will reach a considerable figure. An investigation into the cause of the fire is now be- ing made by the commander of Camp Lewis.

ORDERED TO SHOOT TO KILL


 Down Los Angeles way a strike is being investigated by the war board and some interesting data is being accumulated.
 The Pacific Electric Officials were seemingly loaned the marines by some one, presumably by a Pacific Electric dollar-a-ycar man. When the carmen s:gnified their intention to join the strike last July they were confronted with the order t. the ma rines On the car "If these men at tempt to leave this car, shoot-and shoot to kill" 9l
 Petty officers of the marines ar rested officers of the strikers at Long Beach. The town was never under martial law, and the police of the city even protested against the mili- taristic procedure in a supposedly free civic government.
 The investigators are horror struck at he action of the army and Pacific Electric officials, but that is as far as it will go. Street Car Co.'S are immune from prosecution. If you don't think so see news items of San Francisco regarding grand jury action on Densmore report and the new whitewash of Fickert. We'll it's just like that down in Los Angeles with the Electric Pacific.-World.

The 5S,222 farm owners in Nebras- ka, out of tho 3,354, ,S91 in the United States who operate and own their entire farms, would not be disturbed by the stoppage of ground-rent. but the 7O,469 tenant farmers in this state out of the 2,94S,501 in the United States would then be allowed to keep all their crops instead of handing over tWo-llfths to their farm-lOrds In ground rent.
 Land spectators and mOnopOlistS, restrained from accepting tribute from the sale or lease of their unim proved lands, would find it unprOtit- able then to pay taxes thereon unless they decided to develop the land either by themselves or by hired help, and hence millions of acres of idle lands, vacant lots, timber, oil. and coal lands, natural resources, and water power sites, would be sold for taxes to those who desired to de vclop these natural opportunities.
 Individual workers and economic lubor-groups, enjoying free access to these natural resources, subject only to tho taxes thereon, would, under free competition among themselves. sell coal, lumber oil, and all natural products to the consumers at only the labor cost of production and dis tribution thereof.
 The universal StoppaGe of ground rent would also put a stop to all in tcrest, and profits on necessities of life, and thus save to the consumers a total of $2S, S,0S4, ,500,p00 per annum, or an average of $1,404 q year per family; for both of these are indi- rcctly caused by land monopoly.
 For example, what earning power would money retain if the only form of investment that automatically yields d return were taken off the market? Land is the one fundamental thing that mans physical life is ab- Solutely dependent upon, aside from
