“If society owned the General
Electric Company would you in
sist on your salary of $100,000 a
year?” was asked by an inter
\ iewer for the Sunday Knicker
bocker Tress of Dr.' Charles P.
Stcinmetz, Racialist, Schenectady
N, Y., who receives that salary
from the big t owtr company.
“What for?” was the electric
response. “What would 1 want
with $100,000 a year? what would
1 do with it? What could I d<
with more money than I couh
;se to live comfortably on'.
What would be the good of a
bank account? I save up money
now only for my old age or for
sickness. If society was bound t<
take care of me when my torn
of service was ended or interupt
ed, what worries should 1 have?
“When society guarantees tc
every child the care it owes it
when society guarantees to every
child the education it owes him,
when society guarantees to every
one the living it owes him, whei,
society guarantees to every one
the burial it owes him—that is
the system that must come.”
“But, doctor,” was asked, “Do
you believe everyone would be
willing to make the sacrifices you
would make?”
“Sacrifices?” he answered,
“there would be no sacrifices.
Everyone would be assured of a
good living. What more could he
ask?”

Banks War On
Socialist Daily
That the banks of the copper
country have joined the business
interests in boycotting the Tyo
mies, the Finnish Socialist daily
of Hancock, Mich., was the
charge of John D. Nummivouri,
its business tnanager, during a
visit to Chicago,
He said that in past years the
credit of this successful Finnish
daily was almost unlimited, but
this year, following the strike of
the copper miners, all credit has
been withdrawn,
Nummivouri has only recently
returned to Hancock,' from Mar
ciuette, Mich,, where he served
two months in jail as a result of
the persecution by postal author
ities of Lapatossu, the Finnish
comic weekly,
Nummivouri says the Anti-So
cialist League is more active
than ever in the
try.
