Changes

*1. 68:5.3 ''The collection stage''. [[Food]] [[coercion]], [[hunger]], led to the first [[form]] of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industry industrial] [[organization]], the [[primitive]] food-gathering lines. Sometimes such a line of [[hunger]] march would be ten miles long as it passed over the [[land]] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gleaning gleaning] [[food]]. This was the [[primitive]] [[nomadic]] [[stage]] of [[culture]] and is the mode of life now followed by the African [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bushmen Bushmen].

*2. 68:5.4 ''The hunting stage''. The [[invention]] of weapon [[tools]] enabled man to become a [[hunter]] and thus to gain considerable [[freedom]] from [[food]] [[slavery]]. A thoughtful [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_63#63:5._DISPERSION_OF_THE_ANDONITES Andonite] who had severely bruised his fist in a serious combat rediscovered the [[idea]] of using a long stick for his arm and a piece of hard [http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flint flint], bound on the end with sinews, for his fist. Many [[tribes]] made [[independent]] [[discoveries]] of this sort, and these various [[forms]] of hammers [[represented]] one of the great forward steps in [[human]] [[civilization]]. Today some Australian [[natives]] have progressed little beyond this [[stage]].

68:5.5 The blue men became expert [[hunters]] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_trapping trappers]; by fencing the [[rivers]] they caught fish in great [[numbers]], drying the surplus for [[winter]] use. Many [[forms]] of ingenious snares and traps were employed in catching game, but the more [[primitive]] races did not hunt the larger [[animals]].

68:5.13 And now is [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industry industry] supplementing [[agriculture]], with consequently increased [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urbanization urbanization] and multiplication of nonagricultural [[groups]] of [[citizenship]] classes. But an industrial era cannot [[hope]] to [[survive]] if its [[leaders]] fail to [[recognize]] that even the highest [[social]] [[developments]] must ever rest upon a sound [[agricultural]] basis.
