...period of "blind reaction," which Mr. Sweezy indicates has not yet arrived, perhaps the Cambridge Union could build up a large debt in its own favor. Labor needs a modicum of intelligence in its leadership; wages cannot be raised solely by redistribution, and the problems of increase in general wealth to be distributed,--of a total increase in national well-being, have so far seemed beyond labor leaders' powers of understanding.
