To organise and direct this great force of human opinions, la a great part of our work. To aocompllsh this task and to bring order out of chuoa in a peaceful manner, without thought of personal gain, la our greatest deiire. To achieve this end we do not Intend to raoort to violence. Rather would we see the continuation of the preaent, almost Intolerable, social conditions than to feel In any way responsible for the shedding of blood or the Inciting of violence of any kind In the establishment of an equitable system. However, we must stand firm for the principles of Justice, Truth and Right. In this new economic system, fostered by the N. D. A., then will be provision for every human need Food, clothing, and shelter (will always be forthcoming. Thera will be no more broken lives and suicides because of bankruptcy and failure In business. In addition to supplying all physical needs thla new system will not only give every man a Job, It will give him leisure and opportunities for education, culture and refinement. These things will he some of the rewards that will come those who espouse the cause of the N. D. A. Thera will also he the greater reward of a good conscience and the satisfaction of having worked and lived for the good of all mankind.

A. represents the faith that Spirit can direct intelligence and that intelligence can dominate matter. Our problem is not quick growth bnt strong and sound growth. Rather let us associate with a few thorough cooperators whose desire la to serve humanity, than to attract large host of selfish people. We ean subdue the earth and we will have dominion over It to s point where we will assure to every man the right to work, to live to be happy and secure.

We learned .that a group of honest cooperative people of average Intelligence and small means can organize a local N. D.

A educational stimulate program progressive thought along political lines. Many points on organisation, accounting and exchange technique were clarified. No doubt both more and better work will result from the pooling of experience and Ideas. It was derided that In Industrial activity onr aim should be to do less and do it better. Each unit should undertake one Industrial enterprise and produce a commodity that will be practical to exchange with many other units. It was derided that thla industry should be one where modern machinery and abundant and cheap raw materials an available.
