THINKS HIS REMEDY is
COMMON HORSE SENSE

BY G. H. Hammond, Ben Davis
We have been reading and still
are reading solutions to our pro-
longed depression and economic
troubles. Various remedies have been
supplied and tried out, but have
failed. AS most of these have been
suggested by people of superior
minds I am tempted to set forth
mine of just common horse sense.
First, what Is most needed in this
world of plenty for all? How much
do you bring in this world with you
when you arrive and how much do
you take away or material welfare?
We should have good homes with all
OF the modern comforts of life and
plenty to wear and eat. Why this
endless strife-like a boy trying to
get all the marbles in his pile? Do
away with business for profit entire
ly. Adopt the Townsend Plan for
caring for the aged. % away with
all private banks and let government
banks care for our money. Pay good
wages to all who work, and all would
work if five per cent of the people
did not have nearly all the wealth
of our country. All we want is suf-
ficient for all and not surplus for
a few.
Would we not then be living in a
peaceful and strifeless world?
