Mr.. H. S. Bruce
Editor, Peoples Voice
AS a soldier of long service in the
spreading of liberal thought, | imagine
that this suggestion has been tried
many times, but am wondering If 1t
now couldn't be accomplished? The
publishing and advertising of out
standing books, through the combined
efforts and financing of all the liberal
publications and their subscribers? IT
is sharply brought to mind again in
the December 4, issue of In Fact, the
suppression of the two book, Cav
reau's wild Blue Yonder", and Am
bruster's STUDY of Cartels".
1t seems to me that Labor, Farmer,
other liberal elements and their news
organs can and must unite to publish
and distribute, through advertising,
such books as these must be. We
ARE the Public, the Market, the
Demand, the Consumer, the PRO
Queer" We ARE NOT separate
groups, we are not one group of con-
sumers and another group of produc-
ers. We are one and the same, we
produce and consume our own prod
ucts. AS in all other articles made
and consumed by us, we also produce,
buy, and read the literature that is

choose that which is true, to guide
our thinking-we have no other alter
native but to take one more step and
combine our forces to also own a pub

To the Editor of Peoples Voice
Mr.. Jerry Locke wishes to know
what more he can say relative to the
MVA to further the project. What
he has now written is a revelation
to many and 1 am for it 1000 but
his main trouble is in reaching a larg-
er number of people All agree that
production and wages and incomes
must be kept at a high level for many
years to come and I know of nothing
surer of such results, than dams and
more dams, canals and more canals,
when taken together with the fabu-
lous amount of electrical equipment
that must surely follow. Expansion
in other lines goes without saying.
West of the divide we have Hungry
Horse. 1t must be fed or starved but
there is no room for conflict; 1t is a
matter of first things first to reach
a definite goal
I can see that crate of berries at
$3.50 is 1000 more than SOC, wheat
at S1.00 is 5000 above zoe and
yearling steer at 500 is more than
1000 more than the same steer at |
$50. I can also see that we had bet
ter retain present prices even at a
cost of 1920 in taxes and I do not be-
ieve the tax rate need be near that
high. One could extend this to bonds,
stock, business of all kinds but what
IS the use. I do not believe anything
will be done. The twilight zone"

ion of industry" will then inevitably

The wet night Friday didn't dainpen the bowling any at all. Two seasons records were made and some good bowling was done all around. Belle Ciarlone took the lead for high single honors with a nifty 13O in her last game-six marks in ten boxes told the story. Joe Vep- rauskas led the way for his Bam- boos with 378 set and Peg Carey helped him along with BIO set. A double strike in her first game didn't do her bit of harm. Two weeks ago there were fou rteams tied for second place, now there's four teams tied for first place with the next team only one game back.
 The handicapping system was ir- augurated and seems to have made a good impression since no team was able to sweep three games. Nick Diorio says servicing stoves during the rain is what gave him his cold and kept him away and Homer says he should have kept a fire going on the floor while setting up the Asbestos floors is the answer folks, but we still wouldn't try t..
