BY ALLM ‘AN | ROBINSON CRUSOE 01 Elgin, 1, Aug. 11.—Elgin is back in the dark ages. This fine little city, home of condensed milk and butter quotations and producer of watches, is inhabitated today by 35,000 twen- tieth century Robinson Crusoes, each trying to invent some method to keep cool, to get to work, to get upstairs, tu keep clean and to:keep from cussing every minute of the day. When Robinson Crusoe landed on a strange island with no other human in sight ‘he sat down and began figur- ing out just how he was going to exist —what food he would eat and what he would wear and how he would be protected. from the veather, He found that. nature had provided amply but that-he anust.use his hands and brains to fashion the raw materials into the| necessities required, So was it when the electrical work- ers and interurban and street cur oper- atives struck in Fi They complete- ly tied up the interurban between El- gin and Chicago and cut off the entire electric power of Elgin. First thing Hlgin noticed was the lack of cars to ride to work on. After hoofing it to work it was ‘THE HAANOIS BUTTER METROPOLIS N THE JOB AT > hg WHERE $ waar HAS THERE | ||| BECOME OF ARE | —the old-fashianed coffee grinder? ‘NO. ‘Elgin. doesn’t know.

One example is of an individual whose daily income ex- ceeds that of 50,000 earnest, able workingmen. A workingman, through himself and his family, represents five persons. That one man, in the span of 50 years, should gather to himself as much as is the support of 250,000 persons is not right. The government plans greater taxa- tion of great wealth. It plans to lower the price of bread :by lowering. the fixed price of wheat and bringing the present price and the new one per- haps bya subsidy, this subsidy to be met by taxation. That is merely a pallative.
