The Desert of Wheat

CHAPTER IV
16/17

An' the menace is enough to chill the heart of every loyal citizen.

Any way you put it, if harvests can't be harvested, if wheat-fields an' lumber forests are burned, if the state militia has to be called out--any way you put it our government will be hampered, our supplies kept from our allies--an' so the cause of Germany will be helped.
"The I.W.W.have back of them an organized power with a definite purpose.

There can hardly be any doubt that that power is Germany.
The agitators an' leaders throughout the country are well paid.
Probably they, as individuals, do not know who pays them.
Undoubtedly a little gang of men makes the deals, handles the money.
We read that every U.S.attorney is investigating the I.W.W.

The government has determined to close down on them.

But lawyers an' law are slow to act.
