There are no landlords or 'bosses' and overseers to prod them into
exhausting toil. And these people are simple enough to believe that
man should enjoy life--that all people should find pleasure in
living.

"Of course there are foremen and superintendents in the
administration of industry. But they receive no wages, just what
they need to live on, and every man, woman and child gets that. The
men will work two hours and then go out to play hand-ball and other
games in the plaza or courts.

"When the fields need attention, men go from ranch to ranch
wherever help is needed. In like manner all industry is carried on.

"One example will show something of how matters are managed. One

"It is not to be inferred that Zapata has solved all of the
problems of society. Everything can't be done at once, even by the
magic wand of his propaganda. Still, his achievements make the
genii of Alladin's lamp look pretty small and cheap. In three years
every worker has been united into one industrial union; all titles
