! IT IS perfectly all right for
L these people TO put their
money INTO publishing news
! papers and magazines for labor
unions. but it would bo ln-
tcre>ting 10 know how much of
the profits of our big corpora
tlonS 60 into the movements
against them In fact il might
be a good scheme for the left
WlngerS 10 put their money INTO
the companies against which
they organize strikes. Then
they could finance the strikes
out of the earnings of these
companies. Maybe that is pre-
clScly what these rich men are
doing
Most Of us are buying war
bonds when We might actually
have got IN on the ground floor
on something big.
There can be- no objection 10
these rich men going INTO the
labor publishing business and
I IT is all above board and ac-
cordIng 10 the rules But they
are not of tho prolctarIat.
