A ritfsit Sober Thought Authority and alcohol influence the deeds of mortal man In ways that A it aav duuuu|i/ lunuvr. npparcnuy they both call for More from the very first taste. Too much of either goes to people's heads In a manner that Is highly unbecoming. Both have tendency to retard productive activity and both are enemies of straight thinking. No wonder despots so often are Called power-drunk. Not long ago I heard a story about a drunk man with a new Car. It probably was not - true but it was thought provoking. In an effort to back out of his home garage, so the story goes, he pushed over a neighbor's fence and sahk nails in three tires. Using an axe to disengage the debris he bashed in a fender until it pressed against his only remaining tire that held air. Wanted More Power Unable to make the maimed car run, the inebriate got under it with a wrench and flattened the gasoline line so the engine could get almost no fuel; also emptied the brake fluid on the ground. Finally he lost his temper and assaulted the body with a pick until it was no longer a closed car. After that he orated loudly and eloquently on the mistakes of the engineer who designed it. How like this story is the history of our country for the last decade. Instead of doing things to improve i Al?ll M 1* U |owikuv? icuvuy, men 01 auvnorny viewed everything siiccesaful with suspicion end orated on ita faulta. Well establiahed principles of good htisiness were disregarded. Radical ideas were used, like holding land out of production to raise farm prices. ' Work With Am Axe Shortening crops raised prices, to be sure, but it made men idle, as well as land. The landowners got compensation from the national treasury for crops they did not raise and idle workers stood in line for dole. To meet the resulting heavy expenses, corporation taxes grew so heavy that they discouraged investments, further retarding productive activity. With Jobs scarce and poorly paid, people on government relief rolls fared better than many who persisted In trying to earn an hone-4 living by honorable work. This au.omatieaHy discouraged thrift gnd efficiency. It retarded the accumulation of personal wealth and hindered the starting of new, individual owned en. terprlsee. People with odds against - them dlscgjray^aesfly.^ The ease was more readily diagnosed than * remedied.' tinker era la places of authority got a teste of power and drank of H too deeply.
