In} ' { | i i | i You and Your: Nation’s Affairs (Copyright Six Star Service) The Mistakes of Moses By GUS W. DYER Professor of Economics and Sociology, Vanderbilt University In primitive society, sanctii~ of Property was not recognized. As so- ciety developed, it became apparent that the protection of property rights was essential to social stability and social prog- Tess. TheTenCom- mandments are the expression of the wisdom of experience of men in associa- tion. They were given primari- ly as the per- manent essen- tial foundation principles of so- cial order and social progress. It is significant that two of the Ten Commandments deal directly with the sanctity of property, and Moses failed to add that they could be ignored in cases of sup- posed emergencies. Mose: likewise was too old-fashioned to understand that stepping out of a buggy into a motor car could be used as a justifica- tion for repudiating a great funda- mental moral principle of civilization. The framers of our constitution ac- cepted the social philosophy of the Ten Commandments with reference to the sanctity of property without amendment and without modification. and made it the foundation of our American industrial system. The founders of our government were practical statesmen as well as profound political philosophers. They knew from the wisdom of centuries of experience that the temptation would always be strong for demagogues and radicals and sha!low-brained reform- | ers to use the powers of government— | especially the taxing power—to take i i | H | | | { | | | | | | i - les of the name, About | H } baro- ; e WOPIIIT ISI IVIIID SIDS. | conge rty from one class and give it Peedi iealiciaeke sa they are proclaimed to the ignorant as representing a higher morality Since the great majority expect to gain by such movements, it is not dif- ficult to convince the receivers that the exploitation of the few is in ac- cord with the will of the Lord It was against this recognized weak- | of democracies that the frame of the Constitution sought to us in prohibiting the governi from robbing one class in the interest | find human rig! of another. i if There is really no ethical difference between taking property from its rightful owners by a majority vote in Congress and taking property from its rightful owners by a majority vote of highwaymen. The ethical principle involved is not in the methods used, but in the act of exploitation. Thou shalt not even covet that which be- longs to another is the injunction from Sinai, as well as from the Constitu- tion. ‘There is no conflict between prop- erty rights and human rights, except in the minds of the stupid. The sanc- tity of property is one of the highest expressions of human rights. The prime purpose of every right and privilege given to the individual in the Constitution was social rather than individual. The sanctity of prop- erty was given unusual protection pri- marily because such protection is esr sential to permanent social order and effective social progress, and hence essential to permanent social welfare. The general material welfare of the masses of the people in this country achieved under the constitutional pro- tection of the sanctity of property is so far superior to that achieved in any other country and under any other form of government that no com- parison is necessary. The small minded communistic ene- mies of constitutional freedom see Ford, DuPont and Chrysle: simply as individuals who have accumulated large fortunes. Perhaps they haven't he mentality to comprehend that it was these individuals together with other individuals working under the marvelous inspiration of constitu- tional freedom and constitutional pro- tection that led the American people out of the horse and buggy state of transportation, and gave the great masses of the people luxuries and conveniences and speed in transpor- tation. a contribution to general wel- fare too great to ve measured or even estimated. If the sanctity of property had been abolished a ger tion ago. and the profits of manufacturers had been confisczted, and distributed as politi- cal chari the few with substantial incomes would be driving cars of the id T Ford type over rough muddy roads today and the millions would be lo on in envy.
