now because we have more
tools, more working capital.
We cannot compete when we
give this away, no matter
who wins the war.
The history of Europe
records the repeated destruc-
ton of its capital, then the
Icing slow periods of re-ac-
formulation. with recurring
wars, leaving the workmen
just a little above starvation
each time. History has re-
peatediy shown that each
aggressor destroys himself
Through the destruction of his
capital.
Let Hitler pour into the
battIefields all of his re-
sources, his capital wealth,
while we remain strong with
our producing ability unim-
paired, ready to guide and
dominate the world after the
nations of Europe have eX-
hauSted their resources.
But if we exhaust ours with
ithem-Our labor and its
capacity to produce will be
reduced to $500 and $500 4
day level.
In the last 100 wears
America has accumulated
W ealth and its resulting
power to raise its working
mems wages to $1,000 and
$500 a day-millions of
them. As our wealth has in
creased, wages have in
creased; while Europe, with
its constant wars, has kept its
wage level to that of America
one hundred years ago.
Aren't we about to give
away that hundred years of
progress, just because some
foreign dictator stuck out his
tongue at us?
With kindest regards,
Sincerely yours,
FRANKLIN s. ALLEN.

case. il destroys the very
force that makes us strong.
Some may think that the
money the government is Civ
ing away, or spending for
nOn-productive materials, rep
resents some vast store OF
wealth apart from our own
individual saving.
But the fact of the matter
is that all our savings; all our
accumulated insurance cash
values, and all the capital of
American industry has been
hypOthecated by our govern
ment, and when the time for
liquidation comes American
labor will find itself on a par
with European labor, less
productive because it has less
tools, for tools represent
capital, and capital represents
tools.
/ wonder If American labor
and American people would
be so anxious to give Europe
SO much if they realized that
this gift to the rest of the
world will lower their prOduc-
ing ability or capacity to buy.
Europe has had available
all of the inventions of the
world but for hundreds of
years Europe has periodically
destroyed its capital or
wealth producing power with
one war after the other.
You can't pour wealth into
cannOns and ornaments and
have il available for machine
tools. II had to come out of
the earning power of Euro
pean laborers.
Because America has pre-
served its working capital or
capacity to create tools,
American lab0rers have been
able TO buy more of every
thing i'm luXuries than all of
the rest of the world COM
bined.
/ Now il seems we are about
to be dragged into the peren-
NAL European wars and this
will eventually leave us in the
same position as the Euro
pean workmen at $500 per
day.
We have been led into this
war first ny fear of attack,
and then when il was proved
cOnclusively that 5000 miles
of ocean are an effective bar
rier against any war machine
we are led to believe that We
must face a commercial at
tack after the war.
