hesitate to draft men from the factory
and farm when any fighting needs to
be done. Our millionaires rarely do
any fighting. Their patriotism taken
the form usually of loaning money at
high rates to the Government In times
of deadly peril. The poor men do tne
fighting. It is they who brave the
leaden hall and the hardly less fearful
ordeals of the camp in times of war.
"I am offering our millionaires the
first real chance they have ever had In
this country to show the genuineness
of their patriotism. They should seize
It with joy and should exert their tre
mendous Influence in favor of my bill.
As far as I can make out. the treat
body of the people is not suffering for
a big navy. The demand for naval ex
ploitation comes almost exclusively
from those upon whom the super tax
would fall.
