﻿Extracts 
 
“Is it a part of intelligence to squeeze the juice out of meats and feed the pulp to workers? 
“Is it sound logic to separate the small good (the juice) from the mass of bad (the pulp) and feed the pure good (the juice) to the few; the pure bad (the pulp) to the many?” 
According to my way of thinking these two should remain inseparable. 

“ . . . for another). If it had intended ‘It’ to be ‘So it would have made bubbling springs of beef-extract for one; and mountains of pulp for the other. However, nature did not see fit to make such an arrangement.” 

“ . . . The one denied roughage becomes a degenerate and goes into the market for new glands; the other one ‘filled up on roughage,’ gets radical and begins to howl for a one big union.” 

“ . . . You come around belly aching ‘that you’ve been fooled.’ You give your officials power to pull strikes, when the boss feels strong; to call off strikes, when the boss feels faint.’” 

“ . . . How’s chances to carry your pay envelope home for you?” 

“The I. W. W. doesn’t ask you to trust it—it is not a faith organization. It gives you the best ‘unionism’ at least expense — it lets . . .” 

“It guarantees the wages will go up faster than the cost of living.” 

“There is no danger in over eating, if the food is pure, and if your stomach has not previously been ruined with improper foods. (Men do not give themselves pain, unnecessarily).” 

“Cheap meals are cheap death —or a . . .” 

“The cooks are compelled to work eight, to twelve, to sixteen hours a day over a hot range that would put to shame a Scotch boiler on an ocean grey hound.” 

“Prices charged do not always determine the quality of the food; rather the prices determine who shall eat it.” 

“Never an artist painted a prettier picture than a clean plate. A clean plate with two smiling eggs on it: sunny side up. Alas” This tan never be . . . “ (until) 

“If it wasn’t for the dishwasher, black-plague or hog-cholera would have us all wipe’t off the pay roll by this time.” 
“A la King” translated means ‘like king.’ ‘Hence, when you have eaten ‘chick a la king’ in a cheap restaurant, you become convinced that it was prepared from Tut-ankh-amen himself, or some other potentate of equal historic significance.” 

“Hereafter, employers, if they want to rent, hire or purchase labor (power) must pay the price set by labor.”
