INDUSTRIES UP A TREE

The man us a tree looks down at the
wolves beneath him and wonders how
long he can hold out or escape.
Industry today Is a whole lot like
the man up tree.
Twenty years ago II had 10 climb into
the lower branches TO escape the irst
attacks the wolves Of regulation and
taxation. Today II has climbed 10 the
topmost branches to try and save itself
from he ever increasing pack Of regu-
lation and taxation that is gnawing at
the roots OF Its support. The top Is
bending and the pack Is bowling.
The public may be compared to the
tree. II has supported industry against
the pack attacks for many years, but
like the tree II Is beginning TO bend.
The flood Of regulation and taxation
Of industry which has been developed
and extended for the supposed "bene-
fit OF the public, has all added to the
cost OF operating every industry, and
TO the cost OF government. and In turn
the public haShad 10 meet this expense
by paying higher prices for everything
Il eats, wears or uses.
