One cannot expect to hear the truth from swindlers and as the financiers own the radio the dupes who listen to their falsehoods are not only victims of their slippery methods but their reasoning functions shrink to inactivity for the lack of mental effort in learning actual facts instead of loafing about in easy chairs listening to the smooth gab of the Financiers’ Touts.
The few mastodon financiers who take away from the smaller sharpers everything that they have cheated the wealth producers out of are now engaged in the biggest and most far-reaching swindle this world has ever known. These gigantic financial schemers are not satisfied with just stealing the people’s homes, farms, stores, factories, newspapers, radio, telephones, railroads, airlines, boat lines, trolley lines, bus lines, mines, and real estate, but they are now engaged in stealing whole nations and making perpetual slaves of the people therein.

Then they organize separate Labor associations with different methods of procedure to quarrel and fight over trivial matters and whip themselves. They then throw out of employment millions of working people and keep them begging for jobs as a menace to such workmen as they choose to employ. In this way they force those that are working to be thankful and grateful for whatever bones they may permit them to gnaw upon. These bones only last for a short time, however, as those with jobs are constantly being displaced by younger and stronger workmen who in turn are displaced by younger and stronger con- |
