They think it would work smoothly. They think it would increase the output of coal.

They are most anxious to discover whether their theories are correct. Let them start by Nationalizing their own properties and effects, and seeing what happens. We cannot afford to ruin Britain in order to prove that a Fabian may be a fol WHILST Theorists think, the Public knows that the profits of all private enterprises taken over by the State have automatically become losses. The Coal Industry, directed by men who have devoted their lives to its process, is a great national asset. It imposes no responsibility upon the taxpayer, but by its enormous contributions to the sum of taxation, materially lifts the burden from the professional, the middle, and the poorer classes.

Nationalized Mines would within a few years become a liability, as every other nationalized service has done. Nationalization means that the mines would be everybody's business, and everybody's business is nobody's business and the cost of production and the price of coal would inevitably NATIONALIZATION THE Theorists say that if the Mines and other Industries are nationalized, the profits of those concerns will be turned over to the State. But what Guarantee will they give to the Public that there will be any Profits? The Coal Owners (the Investing British Public) have nothing to hide. They are prepared to give every publicity to their accounts, and to share with the miners the fair profits of their business. That is as just an offer as any Industry has ever made.
