"AS EASY AS ABC."
Witness of the Labour Commission (under examination). Yes, I think that employers should be forced by law to give in to their men.
Question. But should this lead to bankruptcy, what then?
Witness. Bankruptcy should be legally abolished.
Question. Should employers have no money to pay the employed?
Witness. That duty should be discharged by the Government.
Question. But bow should the loss be supplied—by the imposition of new taxes?
Witness. Certainly not. Taxation should be entirely abolished.
Question. Then how could your scheme be carried out?
Witness (courteously). That is a matter I leave entirely to the discretion of the Government.
