The latest deccentrol order (that must have brought unbounded glee to the‘leeches of the Winnipeg Grain Exâ€" change and the packinghouse owners) rushes us closer and faster toward the economic paralys:s that is spreading like the black plague over the western "free enterprise world.‘"‘ Frantic attemupts are made on every side by the spokesmen for mcnopoly to immobilize the largest sections of progressive opinion in the country by branding every progressive person or group who‘ so much as dares question the san"tity of scâ€"called "free enterâ€" prs®" as a Communist. By "free enterâ€" prise" is meant the freedcm of the trusts and: monopolies to glut themâ€" selves at the trough of higher and higher prices and profits and a lower and lower standard of living without thought or responsibility to the nation.
