We must get away from the whole scheme of artificial and corrupt evaluations. Money Dead Thing Money itself is a dead thing. Money it is may be gold or shells or nuts; work. only a symbol of the trade of Think of living off shells or beads. If we tould get that into our heads we would begin to realize the absurdity of the kind of prosperity the country had, and that some people wish to perpetuate. But it is impossible to continue the false prosperity in which we were living. It was unnatural. It was set and dead. There is no permanence save in change. We thought we could fix things and make them permanent which is against every principle of life. life revolted. Artificial Economics We are paralyzed by our dependence on an artificial economic situation which has failed us. Yet there is everything here to do and everything to do it with. (There are, for instance, very few small comfortable houses in this country, though there are enough big ones that no one wants to care for. Why not a new I extype of home for the people? a man can pect to see the day when have a modern home, five acres and a car for (2500 or less. Mere Money Not Success Money and money values have paralyzed the energies of the vast population which has lived on the theory that only the men who make vast quantities of money are successful. This has been nurtured by the success worship spread over the land which made it seem that people came into this world only to get rich. A great many people believe it, and worked at it, hut they found little satisfaction after they had achieved their object. They learned somethingso from also the experience, of course, but did the man who did not win money. American Fallacy It is an American fallacy to say a man is a failure because he has not made money. There is no failure. No one can fail of the purpose for which he is on earth if he works and helps himself, regardless of the money value of the work. Today cleverness is more admired than ability and shrewd money making is admired most of all. Do we not know, shall we never learn, that mere money making engages only the lower ranges of human intelligence?

He should have maintained the value of wheat and cotton. Roosevelt has been careful to say nothing to alarm Big Business. He should rather have developed a program to set eleven million men to work. Neither has offered any real remedy for the dispossessed farmer and the jobless worker. Neither can go to the heart of the problem because the profit system is in the way. Neither will tamper with that because it has fed, clothed and educated them and elevated them to their present high positions. So, in the long run, it matters not at all which one takes office next March. Neither can revive our defunct economic system.

To permit free exchange of currency, commodities and services, there must be one universal plan. All can get together on the Rochdale plan. There can be universal currency. There can be universal per hour value of labor. There can be universal test for qualifications for members.

Neither candidate is competent to remove our economic cancer because neither man is willing to cut deep enough. Since it is the profit system that is destroying our industrial existence, the one nope for industry is to get rid of the profit system. Roosevelt in his campaign 'speeches has shown Hoover to be not only incompetent, but also a willing tool of Big Business. Hoover, in turn, has pointed out that Roosevelt's claims and promises do not square with his record as an executive. What he has condemned in his speeches, he has not tried to curb in the state of New York.
