HIGH WAGES IMPORTANT

The expansion of consumption and
investment also involves appropriate
wage policy on the part of business.
The broad markets necessary for full
employment require a high level of
consumer purchasing power and it is
important that wage incomes be as
high as possible. If wage payments
are deficient, the basic demand for the
products of farm and factory is nee
essarily curtailed. L. Hopkins,

Mostly used to collect vast taxes
Also, collect prettiest girls for

Chopping heads off for objectors-
Something like that doing now in

No recent reports on what happens
to prettiest girls
But gathering taxes and chopping
heads
Goes on according to ancient pat
tern
With much interfering with private
business
Which is one kind of government
The essential function of govern
ment-
Is social control: control of social
forces ana assets
Such control, of social forces and
assets
Today, or yesterday, has been per-

Directed toward personal benefits
Naturally resenting any interfer-
ence-
With the purpose and methods of
personal control
Individualistic control of social po-

Is contradiction of government in

AS well as being calculated to de-

Does nothing, can do nothing
