Even the most trivial decisions must be moved, seconded, and then voted upon...
...years. The vital textile dyeing industry lost an estimated $1,700,000 in the first four months of this year. The only brewery faces curtailed production, and deliveries of soft drinks have fallen 60%.

Originally scheduled for June 16, the elections have been...
...habits, they would give more heed to their conduct while in the plastic state. We are spinning our own fates, good or evil, and never to be undone. Every smallest stroke of virtue or of vice leaves its ever so little scar. . . . Nothing we ever do is, in strict scientific literalness, wiped out. As we become permanent drunkards by so many separate drinks, so we become saints in the moral, and authorities and experts in the practical and scientific spheres, by so many separate acts and hours of work...
