Powsr Bscomtcs Unequal
Mr. Porter characierned Ihe
preent system as resulting In a
very disproportionate distribution
of wealth. This means thai a few-
men hold an enormous power over
many hundreds of less fortunate
people. The present order Is also
very Inefficient. In hit opinion.
"There Is efficiency within the
privately ow ned Industries today. :
but there Is a Tory great waste in
our competitive marketing. We try
to market on brand of automobile
at ihe expense of another --one
brand of food at the expense of in
efficient." Stresses Cooperation
The remedy, according to iht
speaker. Is cooperative ownership
of our Industries. In the new order,
production will be for use. not pro
fit All this must come gradually,
of course. The change cannot be
made In a day.
"I'm not advising that we do

assuring truthful advertising. Thit
would harm many products, how

opposed to making public these
findings."
Not all Industries would be taken
over by the government, according
tto the plan -of Mr. Porter. Many
would remain under private owner
ship. But such industries as the
railways, the automobile and
other like concerns that serve

verslty Player's presentation of
Mollere's comedy, "Learned
Ladles."
Philosophy, science and litera
ture, all collaborated In the choice
or servants and of husbands, as
rhilaminte, Armande, and Bellse
attempted to "feed their minds on
the fiweets of science" while "ris
ing to the realms of the spirit."
Women Become Vexed
. "The way men used their Intel
lects" greatly vexed the dear ladies,
who contended that "beauty of face
being passive" It Was "the beauty
of the mind, which was lasting,"
and the desired object of human en
deavor. The majority of the. men in the
play, with the exception of one
Mr. Trlssotln, were not so sure of
the beauty of philosophy. "Learn

was the contention, and they were
not going to 'ndanger their future
happiness by too much of the so
called spiritual food.
The uniting of their 'forces
against the ladles finally resulted in
the happv consumatlon of the love
