why priv-ie interests to enhance their
profits secure their holdings, and pro-

useful worker or producer to adhere
for a moment to any political oryan-
ization, that does not try to make it
possible to.give all an equal chance to
be producers and secure them in the
‘values created. They really think: ‘there
is * nothing in ‘this life too’ good for
them to enjoy. They do not object to
