Of thing seems 10 me to explain IN
part why the cost of living is so
great. If so, it is unjust to attrib.
ute it all to the policy of a political
party.
However, most of us realize that
when any combination of capital is
allowed to control the output of
of any article and then increases
the cost of that article to the con-
sumer, while diminishing it to the
the producer, the government is
culpable. Then. it logically fol-
lows that the political party in con-
troll of the government is at fault.
Combinations of capital can pro-
duce at less cost, and if justice
were meted out the consumer
would receive the benefit of the di-
unfinished cost of production. Such,
however, is not true. The greed
for gain is too great Human ma
ture is pretty much the same in
this respect the world over, and we
may expect the cost of everything
to increase in proportion to the in
crease in the combinations of
wealth that seeks to regulate the
output.
Now, it is a fact that these great
trusts or combinations of capital
inc eased enormously during a
very short period of time. Is it
mere coincidence that Theodore
Roosevelt was president at that
time? They multiplied ten fold
during the seven years that he was
president. That seems to have
beeii a fostering period for them,
for never before nor since has there
been anything like it. The latch
string at the White House seemed
to be always out to them. OF
course, | am aware that Mr. Roose-
welt claims to distinguish between
g00d and bad combinations of CAPT.
