WHO AM I?
I am more powerful than the combined armies of the world.
I have destroyed more men than all the wars of the nations.
I am more deadly than bullets, and I have wrecked more homes than the mightiest of siege guns.
I steal in the United States alone, over $300,000,000 each year.
I spare no one, and I find my victims among the rich and poor alike, the young- and old, the strong and weak. Widows and orphan? know me.
I loom up to such proportions that I cast my shadow over every field of labor, from the turning of the grindstone to the moving of every railroad train.
I massacre thousands upon thousands of wage earners in a year.
I lurk in unseen places, and do most of my work silently. Youarewarned against me— but.you heed Rot.
I am relentless—I am everywhere—in the house, on the streets, in the factory, at rail¬ road crossings and on the sea.
I bring sickness, degradation and death, and yet few seek to avoid me.
I destroy, crush or maim; I give nothing—but take all.
I am your worst enemy.
