It Seems to Heywood Broun

This article focuses on economic activities on a U.S. bishop. James Cannon, the bishop, has been devoting a good deal of his attention to the ethics of active participation in Herbert Hoover prosperity through the medium of Wall Street. Though many will agree with the comforting conclusion reached by the devoted dry leader in regard to the Wall Street trading, he has a fight on his hands in the matter of some generalizations into which he then proceeds. The Bishop is maintaining that he was entitled to take a flier in stocks because he brought to this pursuit a superior skill and intelligence. The Bishop is not enunciating a wholly new theory in regard to gambling.
