leased by Rainey, the educator
wrote

right to live while he Is trying to
get job?

side and die Of starvation.
But such conditions brought on
the French revolution. viii Amer
starve? VIII American citizens
themselves lie down by the road
sides and starve? Most certainly
they will not.
IF American property owners
cannot pay for the protection of
their own property. soon they Will
not have any property. Neither
creditors nor debtors can be saved.
Both will perish and other proper
ty owners as well.

proletariat will take the RESPONSE
bility and the property. II revo-
luton Is necessary the proietariat
will give US that too. There will not
be any gravy"
