He urged business men to decline to recognize men who make money In Wull street and render no value for It. "A few gamblers In Wall street are In trouble," said Mr. Carnegie. "If a man has sold stocks short and they go down, lie Is delighted. But If they go the other way, and has not the stocks to deliver, he thinks the president has gone a trifle too far. It Is a good thing for the country that the gamblers have come to grief. 1 wish I could invent a system or a plan whereby both sides of the stock gamblers would come to grief. ’’Wall street Is not all of America and there are some places In New York, even, that are r\ot Wall street. The speculators are parasites feeding upon valued and creating none. It is time that wc business men should rise and decline to recognize men who make money In this way and render no value for It and give nothing—or manufac ture nothing—or exchange In no way a value for what they get."
