have been surprised. They have sup'
ported jiew powers piece-meal, but !
the total over-all result is surpris
ing even to tliein.
Por example, the government lias
power to destroy sittings by chang:ng
money values; power to fix wad's,
hours, old age pensions, relief
allowances, business practice; pow-J
or to iiitrol farming methods, and
-o on. Tliat, is only a partial picture
of the whole. '
A friendly and beneficent government
naturally would use these
outers only for tire benefit of the
eople But the power to give' a man
'ilgh wages could be used to give
'tint low ones; in short existing "soiial"
controls coultl he used to deUroy
virtually all the rights and
rivlleges of the people.
?o?
h was the theory of HOL.C and a
.01 ot oitier new government bureaus
that they would aitu 10 me
-security ' ot the average citizens.
~,dl just look at the ,HOL/J, for example.
It has disclosed that in its
Omaha area alone, it lias lost $5.178,000
on homes on which it had
to foreclose!
The government also has had to
foreclose on 32,000 farms!
The power to help farm and home
owners was established. Its use has
made the government the biggest
home and farm owner In the world.
The II. S. mints report tliev are.
, having trouble keeping up with the
demand for small coins. The 'Philadelphia
mint alone Is now producing
4,200,000 pennies every 24 hours,
and Is still behind.
Mint officials say the reasons are
the new national defense tax and
better business. Rapfosent-utlve Ta
ber says the trolble is that "nobody
has anything to spend of ahlgber
denomination than a nickel or a
penny."
