and fires were out Where is unemployed problem now

any other country the globe ofer How has this been
accomplished? has been accomplished by party in power
whose policy it so protect its industries and its working
men, leaving nothing undone TO make secure these ends
Twenty months ago the parayzed agricultural cond-
