l The American Federation of Labo1
 1923 convention reaf6rmed it's sup bort of the Rochdale cooperative sys.
 tenn for the distribution of commo.
 dities and services without commer-
 cial profit, and placed special empha-
 sis on the insurance business as one 1 of the most practical and urgent fields for the application of the co-opera- tive principle.
 The Rochdale system is recognized to be the most effective method for l the workers to protect their wages against the perpetual raids of prof. Iteering middlemen.
 l "No one can successfully dispute
 the fact that something. is radically wrong with our system of distribu- tion," declares the Federation.
 "In a great many cases it costs more to sell manufactured products and agricultural produce than 1t does to produce them.
 It Is stated that out of every dol lar spent for agricultural products the farmer receives only IS cents and the other 82 cents goes to transportation, holding and selling corporations, spectators, profteers and the mer- chants.
 "The accumulated wealth of the country, much of which is gift from the past, is crystalized into great cor porations which are generally speak ing managed by salaried employees t"Inventive genius has brought to the front wonderfully improved meth ods of production and to such an ex- itent syndicated capitalists have had to create extensive selling facilities.

 That which should naturally go to the relief of the great masses in bet ter wages, shorter hours and lower prices for the necessities of life is really utilized by syndicated sapital- ists for their own further enrichment and to bolster up and keep going a system that will ultimately, unless checked, lead to destruction.
 "It lies in the hands of the work industrially, to save the enormous criminal waste which is now adding to the cost of living, discomfort and misery of the great burden-bearing masses.
