The success- ful man has always had to run the risk of attack. Safety from unreasonable interference by government or attack by others leads the ambitious man on to his greatest exertions.

But soon as legis- lation begins to deprive the pro- ducer of a square deal, or where business is “regulated” by peo- ple without the ex&eflence and Decessary training, business se- curity will be transformed into business depression.
