As the truth comes home to us of what is happening day after day in this and world, the soul sickens and revolts. One sometimes feels that, if it could b done honorably, he would resign from life and the conflict and let the, system fight itself to death as it surely will do in the crisis which has begun. But it will never do to think of resigning or quitting the fight for humanity's liberation. With courage and whatever ability one has he must fight against modern barbaric vandalism. The cue bright spot in the situation is the fact the system responsible for it all is destroying itself. But alas, the system will drag donn with it the flower of the worlds life, mans cherished institutions, pricelccs masterpieces of art, and even the most inspiring literature is in danger of being lost. It is a day of cleansing and reckoning. God is "trampling out the vintage. He has loosed the fearful lightning of his terrible swift sword. His truth is marching on. When fierce and savage militarism and class hatred have done their worst to the system that created them and thrived upon them, then shall men, free and untrammeled, build upon the ruins the New Earth wherein there.will be no more wars or revolutions, no more crime, and march forward together in a Brotherhood bedrocked on love and service.

A man informed us the other day that of all the industries established by the Utah pionerrs hardly one has survived, all of them having been "sold down the river, and are now owned by Eastern capital. If Utah people were today making their own shoes, clothing, lumber, furniture and all other things that they use there would be no unemployment and the people would not be so impoverished as they are. The early advice and to keep money at to the people was to be the people who have not is .It surely as possible. home as far industrial leaders. and financial the is it reversed the order; and most things ceased has largely Local home manufacturing and debt-riddthe unemployed people leaving have to be imported, of Egyptian and transmitting to their children a legacy that with a career handicap its begins that youth bondage so ridden debt the For will not be overcome in a generation. laborers there and farmers and men business state and its so that a all debts from should be a Jubilee period of release look to is upon those new beginning might be made.

FLOWING IS DIR- EST POVERTY Some one must tell the heart break of the world in order that men may understand and unite on a plan to heal and restore. TheG men recently operating in Florida say they found the most degrading and impoverished conditions imaginable and ihat they could be equaled only ntide of China. And in contrast there are the"heavensof pleasure at the resorts where rich wasters squander millions that might be used to save and up-i- ft a lost humanity. The poor Southern tenant armers raise enough cotton to decently clothe half the world, and yet they do not have shirts to their backs that are not patched and tom almost to shreds. They live on the richest farming Boil in the world but for food they eat fodder fit only for mules hey subsist on corn meal and sow belly and syryp, meal after meals, day after day, year in and year out, and never having enough of that. The landlords and the banks rake in their billions of dollars of "profits from the crops these farmers grow, while the poor tenants starve in their miserable poverty and are counted the lowest paid workers in all the world. Nearby them are ministers and politicians who see the glory of God in their conditions because the bible says the poor and meek shall inherit the earth. But they do not innerit any part of it until after they are dead. Shall such a condition endure forever? Lecture on Cromwe I, the great Mananah Leader and forerunner of U. S. A. Republic, held at S.

Following are two brief articles which show and prove the magic work of true cooperation. Wonders are being wrought by and through cooperation. A great work might be done locally, IF How Poverty Was Chased Away Ten years of economic experimentation in the laboratory of social change have brought forth a program of reconstruction which is commanding nation-wid- e attention. Five poverty stricken counties on the windswept eastern coast of Nova Scotia comprised the laboratory. Fishermen, miners and farmers who had been eking out an existence on starvation incomes were the objects. A handfull of Catholic priests at St. Francis Xavier University were the experimenters. Just a few years ago these fishermen, minersand farmers were sunk in poverty as wretched as that endured by the sharraroppers of the South. The fishermens boats were mortgaged, the farmers were losing their land, and the pittance earned by the miners was barely sufficient to keep their families from starvation. Today the fishermen are freeing themselves from complete dependence on the mines all through cooperation. The change was wrought by a program of adult education and cooperative organization. Can We in Utah Cooperate and drive away poverty? Why not? Marvelous Growth of Coops Two hundred and seventy-nin- e representatives of 178 consumer cooperatives with 16,735 individual members iu eleven Eastern states and the District of Columbia recently held their annual meeting.

An additional 29 have part paid memberships in the wholesale and one hundred more coop3rative stores and buying clubs are buying on the cooperative plan. co-o- q in-fro- Townsend Doings The great Townsend Plan convention held in Los Angeles during the week has made history.
