The greed for that Immediate wealth, which the reform- er mistakes for happiness. Is one of the chief bases of their movement." The rotund and jovial ex-presldent analyzed carefully the relation be tween capital and labor, Involving the factors of Industry," thrift. Invention and organization. The combination of these, he pointed out, liad made for B progress 100 limes n-s great as any alone might have shown. "Many wild theories wore brought out as a result of the recent war." he said In laving the foundation for his expose of bolshevlsin. "Russia is a laboratory today for these theories.
