LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Lifting by His Bootstrap Mr, Editor: For the first time I have found a person that argues that a man ought to be able to lift himeelf by his bootstraps. Nemo says: ‘It Is to be presumed that there is no legal way to prevent their (the school children) sharing the loss equally with the other creditors.” No, there is no way, legal or otherwise, (o prevent their losing under the present system. He says further: “These children _somehow ought to be paid in full” They cer- tainly should, but the system is no respecter of persons of any age. but it is a shame that grown-up children should foster such a fraudulent sys- tem. He says: “It is a shame to Nor- wich to_have them lose” Norwich is not to blame for this condition, the system, the trouble is with the law- making power of the mnation—con- gress. _This is what the fight is over today in congress—the ownership and control and issue of money. To illus- trate the principle, suppose that con- gress issued $1,000 and handed it te one individual for him to loan out to the community. The person owning it could loan eleven men $100 each and have $10 left. Kach man's note to run one year, the interest to be 10 per cent., taken out in advance. This gives each man $90. The eleven men get $990, and they owe $1,100. The what they get is $110. Bear In mind there is only $1,000 ail told. This Il- lustrates the system. The Trust com- pany took the penny and nickel from the children with (he understanding that it would give the children more than they put in, and the company de- pended on loaning the pennies and nickels to some grown-up children and getting from them more than the company lets them have. If Nemo will show how the $110 in the above exam- ple can be paid with the amount re- ceived, then that way can be applied to paying the children. The sum and substance of the system is that some- body will get something for nothing. By the report of the receiver it looks as though quite a number got some- thing for nothing, and on the other hand, quite a number got nothing for something, including the school chil- dren. It is possible they may get 50 cents, or perhaps not over 10 cents, on the dollar, but it is an impossibility to get 100 cents on the dollar. You can- not 1ift yourself by your bootstraps. 3. C.
