[THE WEALTH PRODUCING AND DISTRIBUTING SOCIETY.]

[THE PLANET VENUS. SECOND STORY.]

[WE ARE GOING TO BE INSPECTED.]

INTRODUCTION.

In introducing myself to my readers I believe I can do no better than to insert the following clipping, taken from a recent newspaper; for I am answering the cry that is going out to those who are able to work out the problem, of finding employment for willing hands to do:

“THE RIGHT TO WORK.”

Is there such a thing as the “right to work?” If so, why isn’t it enforced on behalf of the great army of unemployed?

It does seem that there should be something for every willing pair of hands in this great country to do. We have unbounded, unmeasured natural resources. We have billions of idle wealth. Ought we not to have wisdom enough to bring the idle wealth and natural opportunities and the idle hands together?

Think of the suffering women and children who are cold and hungry because the husband and father cannot find work for his willing hands.

Think of this, you well-to-do, you statesman; yes, and you workingman.
