Mr. Sinclair’s argument Was that there are 1 000,000 destitute people in the country today and that Mr. Ag- tor’s best chance to relieve the suf fering of humanity was by becoming: a Socialist. : “While from my necessarily limited! experience I do not have the fullest information, and therefore do’ not pre+ tend to speak from authority, I' am obliged to dissent from many of your’ conclusions, especially that the ¢con- ditions of the working people are’ worse now than they have been im the — past,” Mr. Astor replied.
