THE LOWDOWN FROM HICKORY GROVE For some reason or other we don’t like the word Socialism. In today’s vernac, we are allergic to it. You take Norman Thomas, the American Ace Socialist, he only gets a corporal’s guard to vote for him when he comes up for President. Nobody has anything . against Mr. Thomas. He is a_ likeable kind gf duck. He just,goes along year’ in and year dut, running for Presidentand net getting elect- ed, and’ glad of it." He travels all over. He don’t stew or worrg about anything. A third term never enters his head. He don't have to entertain any Ambassa- dors. He don’t bother about when to wear his Admiral’s cape. He don’t lose any sleep about puttin’ over some appointment on the senate. He just keeps on hoping he won't be elected. But if he was to run on some other ticket, he might not be so lucky. We don’t like that word Socialism. We got. Socialism now, but brother, we don’t call it that. Help, no! Yours with the low down, (0 SERRA. nobody may abandon his profes- sion without permission of the new ministry of social welfare. Farmers, foresters, and fisher- men, for example, may under no |circumstances give up their pro- |fessions before the end of this year, and then only if the new profession to which they would |like to turn is really in dearth of workers.
