Aiter all, we are not fighting a war for tHe henefit of those who purvey publicity | and it is necessary for us to permit military anf ndval leaders to decide when specific | information will be released. ' Along this line,“ Leland Stowe, she's re. | Of course, he traveled considerably farther than the distance between Newfoundland and England, but the latter flight, at the same sustained speed, would have covered the Lindbergh distance in less than 10 hours.

The old es- cape mechanism: the inevitability of Poverty, has been debunked as has the iron law of wages based on com- petition: between starving men. For a while we laid the crime of Poverty at the door of industry, but that theory has also been debunked. People don’t work for corporations. They work for other consumers. This leaves the baby on the govern- ment’s doorstep and fortunately the government has intelligently accept- ed the responsibility. The Declaration of Independence proclaimed as self- evident certain Pee ah aoe life, liberty and Sede Pe eneni ents part of political democracy as are Freedom of Speech and Freedom of \ur. POLLOCK CHALLENGES: Economie need does not produce to- talitarlanism, On the other hand, g6vernment-guaranteed security does. From ancient Rome to modern Ger- many,’ the récord is clear and. con- sistent. Citizens dependent upon the State become weak citizens. States that support citizens must be suffi- cently powerful to secure unques- tioning obedience in return for a full stomach. The Germans sold their souls to Hitler for security and he is selling their souls to the devil in a desperate effort te provide that se- curity. While no man should be allowed to go hungry, neither should he be guaranteed a living at the expense of his more productive fellowmen. ME. HAYS REPLIES: Mr. Pollock j assumes that the assurance that men shall not go hungry would produce ) millions of:tymical loafers content to lean on W.P.A. shovels for mere sus- tenance.” lence to the contrary is overwhelming. The constructive im- pulse in human jnature makes idle- ness unbearable to the vast majority Soe seniiecs of this, the nation instead of by a Federal Bureau. I don’t approve of hunger and rickets any more than Mr. Hays does but the record of history makes me very pessimistic about the possibil- ity of eliminating them through the Passage of a law. No matter how thin you slice it, any government plan to guarantee employment is basically s dole system, which in turn is based on penalizing fitness to reward un- fitness. To add insult to injury the administration of the dole involves the creation of a huge bureaucracy; Jeads to political corruption, a regi- dent trom the wat tremendous cost’ bf» since 1933, MR. HAYS CHALLENGES: Pollock assumes that normal men are satisfied with mere sustenatice and prefer not to work. This' is te- futed by the obvious fact that many millions of men who have securiy | continue to work hard and construc- | tively. Mr. Pollock also assumes that un- employment is synonymous with un- fitness. What about technological un- employment? New inventions bene- fit society but they also unemploy workers. This creates a social, not an individual problem. The denial of government aid to millions of useful but unemployed citizens in 1933 would probably have destroyed the | American system. Empty stomachs {| destroy democracy. Business cannot | pear. to the Bill of Complaint, guarantee employment. government must. MR. POLLOCK REPLIES: if in- dustry cannot guarantee employ- ment, government certainly canhot because before government employs | ; it must first tax, thereby spiraling both unemployment and taxes. * When relief was a personal dnd mmunity func fas a dollar recei government function relief costs three times as much in. taxes,ag' is received by the unemployed. | ada.
