Nothing causes more unmixed joy than
to run across man with an Idea.
1t makes little difference whether it is
an Idea for mending clocks or forming
League of Nations.
The only Big Things in this world, that,
like Katishas shoulder-blade, are worth
coming miles to see, are Thoughts.
For Ideas are taller than sky-scrapers,
wider than seas, deeper than oil wells and
livelier than fleas. Also better breeders
than rabbits. Also more nourshing than
bread and more stimulating than BOOZE
John Leitch is one of these men with
an Idea.
Of course, he never discovered it. All
great Ideas are in the air, so to speak.
Their real mother is the Zeitgest
But some man comes along, grabs the
Idea, brands it, harnesses it and shows
everybody how to drive it, And to him
we pay tribute.
Such a man is John Leitch.
He has written book that tells all about
his Idea. It is called Man to Man." and
is an exposition of Industrial Democracy.
Like every brilliant conception, 1t is SIM
ply the application of common sense to a
problem that has been all messed up by
passion, prejudice and crazy theory
| 1t is this: If your Capital and Labor will
drop their fool Class talk, realize that
they're both milking the same COW, get
together, quit fighting and talk things over,
they will have no more quarrel.
Leitchs book gives facts, not 'isms. He
tells how 40 corporations took up a plan

They didn't overturn the government nor
liberate the masses. They did lot better.
They got along.
B. C. Forbes, who knows what's what in
business, is strongly in favor OF the ldea.
He says:
Briefly, Industrial Democracy is based
on our national form of government. There
is set up in each large organization .
President Cabinet, Senate and House
of Representatives. The Representatives
consist wholly of the workers themselvel.
and are elected, by secret ballot, BY their
co-workers. Before any action relating 20
hours, wages, piece-work rates, health
production, or, in short, anything whatso-
ever affecting the workers, can be adopted
it must first come before the workers ana
receive their approval.
President Wilson Endorses the theory. He
declares that our Industrial World has
gone as far as it can on the old road.
at has turned out blind alley. 1t is no
thorofare to real prosperity. We must
find another, leading in another direction, to
general cooperation and partnership, based
upon a real community of interest"
Leitch's books show why the present an
tagonism between Capital and Labor must
be removed. He emphasizes the fact that
human hearts are just the same behind
workers shirt or behind boiled white
front; that the day laborer has human joys
and sorrows, ambitions and aspirations,
lust the same as the millionaire.
