I am wondering what would have happened to me .by now if 50 years ago some fluent talker had, convinced me to the theory that it was not fair to my fellow workers to put my best efforts into my work. I am glad that the eight-hour day had not been invented when I was a young man. If my life had been made up of eight-hour days, I do not believe I could have accomplished a great deal. This country would not amount ho as much as it does if young men of 50 years ago had been afraid they might earn more than they were paid for.”
Now, lest someone should deyelop the idea that I am opposed to the improved lot of the worker let me hasten to say that I am heartily in favor of it. The point I’m trying to make, is that American workers do not need a “Welfare State,” that under our American system they have achieved the highest standard of living in world history; and that they should stoutly resist any and all attempts of Federal government to do for them the things they are doing so well for themselves.
When government gives, it also dictates. Freedom is lost. Winston Churchill recently put it this way:
“Resisting tyranny is the duty of every citizen who wishes to live in a free country.”
We should resolve that there shall be no further softening-up of our economy. Next, we should act by carefully screening the candidates up for election on November 4. Then, iwe should vote for those candidates who publicly proclaim that if elected they will do their level best to bring to a halt the “softening-up process” which is eating away at the very vitals of our American economy.
