When the people are WaS-'
trels, the rulers follow suit. In
the story Of our planet, no peo-
pie and no government has ever
squandered manpower, natural re-
sources. money, goods, cereals, as has
been done in this country since the
wal ended. There has never any
where been such Indifference about
directing our energies to useful ends.
While, of course, money is no wealth,
yet, when donated out of tax payers
pockets to foreign nations, it comes
quickly back and siezes in the markets
the product of our labor on farm, in
mine, in factory. Every dollar we send
abroad for coffee, tin, rubber, etc, en-
riches us. Every dollar we give away
abroad makes us that much poorer in
cotton or copper, cars or corn.
We have planted so much wheat,
and given it away, that our agrono-
mists not only complain hat our land
is losing its fertility, but that two dry

Kansas. Iowa, Nebraska and elsewhere,
as we have not dreamed Of before.
Our rulers, by radio and press. de-
ceive us. Some talk of our Christian
duty to feed hungry Europe. That is
subterfuge. and they know it. Others
tell us we, by gifts Of bread. will pre-
vent the spread OF Communism. While
these dread the spread of Communism
sincerely enough, they must know
from recent events that our money
cannot change politicai beliefs. Our
Big Brass demands compulsory serv-
ice and costly armament, pretending
to fear Russia. This is JINGOlSM
and hypocrisy. For fifteen years the
Soviets. in the old League Of Nations,
and now in UN have offered to com
pletely disarm il the other nations
would do SO.
None Of these pressure groups speak
the inward motive Of their masters,
the big bankers and manufacturers,
in making them plump for does to dec
adent ruling classes abroad, for with
drawing from productive work here a
million Of our youth.
The truth is, our system Of economy
is artificial. 1t exploits the worker,
