.IS THE OLD .HOMESTEAD .DOOMED?
In a recent address, Norman Thomas predicted that the
next ten vears will see this nation under either Socialist or
Fascist rule. Thomas said he
violence and revolution and urged a peaceful drifting into
Socialism. If it were possible, he said, he would advocate
immediate confiscation of all industry and business and the
vesting of title in the commonwealth. However, with this
so difficult, he suggested the plan of "compensation plus
taxation" for the commonwealth to follow in assuming own
ership.
Thomas' opinion seems to . be that our whole industrial,
agricultural, political and financial system is a failure. lie is
'opposed to profits from private ownership of industry. He
said his party, if given power, would strive to socialize banks,
railroads, coal mines, power, and next would monopolize all
influstry for the benefit of the commonwealth. Taxes would
be revised the inheritance tax l)eing increased and allow
ances made for farmers to be allowed to abandon their titles
to property with a guaranty that they could remain on prop
erty and work the farm. Commonwealth councils would
.direct the new enterprises and furnish machinery and mate
rials. It Is pretty hard for American citizens to understand that doctrine. The
United States was- established as the land of freedom and encouragement
of Individual Initiative and enterprise. It Is difficult to conceive of an
American farmer, a "freeholder", being ready to turn his land In to the
government for some allowances that might be made him, for the priv
ilege of living on the property and "working the farm" for the conunon
Iffealth, as b "tenant". Also It is difficult to Imagine the American farmer.

At tho present tlmo the drive for socialization Is against tho big Indus
tries, but the fact that the plan Includes the farm and public ownership
of homes and the direction of the people by councils which would be
'nothing but a ruling class under a different guise, shows the necessity for
studying this situation carefully. Tou can't have a nation hair socialistic

The stringent anti-gun law now pending in Congress would
make ownership of .small arms virtually inioossiblo for the
honest citizen. And, like similar state laws, it would thus

him ithat his victims were unprotected. Violence, robbery
and other crimes would be made immeasurably easier and
