MORISON ON CAPITAL.
"What the league wanted to fight against was the oppression of capitalism and not against capitalism itself. They could not get on without capital—even the strike organisers could not get on without the. capital which the.v had been accumulating for years." This would appear to mean that the league is not against capitalism, if only its members are the capitalists. Capitalism is and always must be. oppressive, except to the capitalists. The only way to escape is to become a capitalist. What a time it will bo when tho new league has made us all capitalists and v.o grow rich by taking interest from each other! I suppose Morison will be Prime Minister then, or perhaps King, eh? "They could not get on without capital." I wonder how the early settlers got on? I wonder how much capital there really is? I wonder most of all if Mr. Morison knows what capital is?
