Show SOCIALISM THAT.., ' WORKS Under the caption, Socialism, and how it works today in America the San Francisco Chronicle says: Socialism and its more radical brother communism, in its widest amagining has ever contemplated the distribution of wealth in the manner man-ner and by the means by whch it is now being distributed. There is now among us an era of distribution of wealth by dividing and vast selling corporations in small pieces to the man on the street the wage earner and the house maid. The great railroad systems of this country, the public service corporations corpora-tions and street railways, and even great oil corporations today have their hundreds of thousands of small stockholders who have obtained, througli husbanding their frugal savings, sav-ings, their portion of the wealth of this country. This far seeing and far reaching movement this distribu tion of the $25 share of stock and the $100 bond, is the conservative's answer to the socialist. This distribution of wealth is the true socialistic paradise. Each day Ahis millenium of wealth distribution is being more nearly perfected, and every home owner every stock owner, own-er, and every bond holder, as the numbers increase, answer the socialistic social-istic problems of the division of the wealth with unanswerable argument. This is why America is fundament ally sound. This is why, with ap- proachmg years, men may look forward for-ward with satisfaction and contentment content-ment to the prospect that this coun-ry, coun-ry, the home of thier children for generations to come, will provide a sanctuary of safety for all times. Such assurances for the future make the vista of coming years for American Amer-ican citizenship one to contemplate with satisfaction. |
