people otihe Norwalk'l that nobody
ever gets anything in this world
worth having without going for it.
What we need to grow on is factories

around and pay it out again over the
counters of our merchants. When

as we understand it; and a nation is
strong or weak as its factories are
Factories are not only
producers, bill they are the greatest
consumers in the world. They can-
not live without letting live on a large
scale. They sell their goods, that is,
when tariff rippers are sent to the
rear and our domestic market is pro
tested against the deluge of foreign1
goods which destroys vit tor home “1';
