economic poems ruled by four major
families and six minor families, which
own all the industrial life in the jap
anese empire. Personally, l think
after Macarthur gets through in jap
an, we should bring him back to the
United tSates as l think he could do
wonderful work here along the same
lines by disintegrating the various
monopolistic families that have ruled
the United States since John d. Rock
efeller started by committing depre
dations against the laws by rebating
every carload shipment of crude oil.
This was the real start of monopoly
in this country.
Along with the Rockefellers, we
have the DuPonts, the MELONS and
half a dozen more. This also should
include the Ford estate, which | grant
did a great service to the American
people by building a cheap car, and it
was cheap. In 1917, while l attending
conference at the Minnesota Club
in st. Paul, there were present two
Weyerhauser brothers, Senator Kel-
logg, Oscar Taylor and Charley Ames,
and the statement was made, dis
cussed and confirmed at that time
that if Ford would run his plant at
full capacity, making 1000 cars every
day and give them away for nothing
with the proviso that people would
keep them on the road, his plant
would earn 25 million dollars a year
just supplying parts to keep these cars
rolling. 1t was also stated at that
time that the cars without tires cost
around $4,000 and equipped with four
tires, $4,000, and then were sold for
around 100000

if anything, and monopolies continue
to grow and expand, John D. being |

paid one cent
Let me add that l think Uncle Sam
needs a few more men like General
Macarthur and he should be COM

he is doing in comparison with the |
muddled up mess that is taking place
in Germany and many of the oc-
cupied countries.

Dear Mr. Bruce:
Read an article in your paper in
regard to labor starting their own fac
tories.
Yes, I think it's about time to do
that right now. The government has
lots of plants that will be available
or maybe are right now. Come on
you workers and throw in what you
can and there will be some farmer
that will throw in with you. / will
help with 800 toward a shoe factory
a tannery, a wooden mill; things that
we all need, and are depending upon.
It's getting so you can not buy any

home. Shoes made of paper; under
wear made of something different
than wool. So come on and let us
90 for our own factory. You will not
have to worry about your job and
pay. The goods you produce will be
aiken by the coop stores here and
here and every place. We all need
.hese things to wear. You've got to
break away from this capitalistic sys-
EN- some time in order to live. All
hey want to do is to crush the COM
non people.
Did you see the article in the Trib-
Inc Dec. 20, AS? Only 40 out of 425
members met on the debate of world
,eace and one of them said he did

Seeing as Christ and his followers

wonder who he means. Those angels

Washington, D. C. There is no Santa
