Queen Elizabeth is here in all her warpaint. It won’t be long now wait until Brittain and France bring their country over here for safe keeping. I do not know what guarrantees Uncle Sam gives but, (illegible) they are good, plentiful and sufficient. I’d hate however to bet on $50,000,000 dinghy. Wisconsin is here loading “red-brass.” So, as I was saying, best thinkers assure me there is no need for any man to go hungry and every time you skip a meal the employers (industrialists) can buy seven steel-nosed bullets with the money and these seven bullets will put seven foreign workers (warriors) on perpetual fast. Clearly a profit for both sides of the overseers of international friction. The assumption here is that “ it is patriotism” and it may be- but the facts belie the assumption and the day is approaching when the West wall and Maginot shall prove a white-elephant, militarism folly. “The Age of (illegible!” “In comes for our own industrial magnates is so (illegible) and prolific that were it not fat the haunt of the income tax they would have the slightest conception as to the amount and speed with which it piles in and naturally when income floods in at the rate of one or two million dollars a year many, many equally deserving pillars of society are (illegible) shortters or step out and rob the WPA workers. Loyalties generally follow economic interests. As to illustrate: Western Poland’s heart is in Germany because Germany buys her industrial productions- first hate, then tolerance, finally respect. Vienna was relieved of the choking influence of circumscribed supporting aires. Even so as a farmers heart is democratie because he got barbwire cheaper under a democratie administration. And where reverse is true, loyalty is flown. Let us then get more wages so that we may become still more loyal.
