with an entirely new set of banker bondhold-

fore there were any Bolshevks, and that labor

so, and isn't it awful
Which is about what one would expect of a

Twenty ago The Star fighting against anarchy
with the vigor it has displayed during the past year

has been buded and moulded into the present broadmn

Ten years ago The Star fought asanst crooked city

So too and alone The Star fought against the warped
unAmercan principle which permitted few rich to
buy the senatorship from corrupted Legislature Nat
