We find him at work in. a shop owned and operated by his master, who controls his work and the price of his labor. ’ In the future, if the industrial auto- crats are allowed to control the taxes and the price of farm produce, sooner or later they will confiscate the farms. Under the League program the peo- ple would own banks, markets and farm industries and the farmers and laborers would get the full product of their toil.

"Union, Maine. C. A. MILLER. 4 VETERAN WILL HELP Editor Nonpartisan Leader: I have been a reader of the Leader for sev- eral years. I am very much interested in the work being done by the League in North Dakota and the Northwest., I have just read in the Christian Science Monitor an interview by Sena- tor Ladd regarding conditions serious- ly affecting the program which the League has started to establish in your state. I need not say that I am not surprised at the attitude of big business to crush’ and ruin the move- ment if it is possible. I write to say, “They can never kill it. The right will ever come uppermost.” My wife and I have a few hundred dollars and we are willing to ‘let the state of North Dakota have the use of it. Our family -is self-supporting. My wife served as an army nurse and I as a private during the Civil war. Our only motive is to aid the fight for just one democracy in these United States of trusts. Your folks are made of the right kind of stuff and will win. St. Charles, Mich. P.P. MINER. AN OKLAHOMA “STICKER” Editor Nonpartisan Leader: I like - - your paper and I believe you should increase the circulation and should publish the addresses of papers that are working for the League so we can subscribe for them and encourage the editors to the end that we may have a dependable press. In these after-the- war reconstruction days if the farm- ers and laborers want fair play- in government they must ask for it through a megaphone and do it quick- ly. We are ready to back the League with all that we have. N. E. MOSHER. Hitchcock, Okla.
