Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1943-11-25

THE rights of men have never before
been imperiled as today. In the war
for survival in which our country is en-
gagged, each of us has many things at
stake. Most precious of all are the free
doms offered to all Americans by the Bill
of Rights of the Constitution of the
United States.
The Bill of Rights was framed by the
first Congress of the United States as
sembled at Federal Hall in New York City.
1t was put into our Constitution 152
years ago on Dec. Is, 1871. Since then,
the 462 words of the Bill of Rights have
been the highest expression of the rights
of man.
Today over the whole world, people
are sacrificing and dying for their own
ideals of freedom. For their own ideals
of a bill of rights. Here at home we
Americans through our bill of rights are
guaranteed liberty of worship, speech,
press and assembly and the personal
security of our homes.
1t is fitting that today when our very
existence is threatened by a global war,
the people of New York State again dedi-
cate themselves on Dec. 10 to an apprecia-
ton of our American Bill of Rights.
The Bill of Rights is the expression of
the wifi of our people. 1t will survive
just so long as it is enshrined in their
hearts as their most precious possession.
1t will survive as long as every one is

GOV. THOMAS T.. DEWEY
Of NPW York.

THE adoption of the first 10 amendments
Ito Cur federal constitution on Dee.
Is, 1871, guaranteed by writing individual
rights under the federal government that
are still the basis of every American citi-
zen's freedom and liberty.
The tenth amendment made articulate
of philosophy of the delegation of certain
powers to the national government and
the reservation of all other powers to the
states, that has always differentiated our
eeuntrys political system from that of
any other nation.
Because the states have always been
in control of the undelegated powers,
liberty and democracy has here developed
from the peoples level Because the citi-
zen's rights have been guaranteed against
infringement by centralized government,
democracy has here grown to its full
capacity 1t is stimulating and patriotic
experience TO read the Bill of Rights.

she could change IT in the res

Only last Saturday while nd
ing the Plymouth bus home
from. work I noticed the passcn-
gers getting on and off the bus.
Very seldom have they the cor
rect change TO drop IN the box.
Some passengers blocked the
aisle and would not move when
the driver asked thCUT 70 step
back please so he could take on
more passengers.
Fro bus STOPS were GOV ded
with workers waiting m tho
cold because they could not get
on the buses and women with
children occupying seats while
tired and worn out men and
women were standing.
Yes, this driver did pass up
S0me PASSENGERS az Plymouth

say / am sorry but there are 40
people to get on and | only have
room for two and We viii get
stampeded again.
Then there was the stop for
the Conant bus. About 30 people
waiting 10 Get on and some off
Then the driver calls. Please
leave by the rear door No the
passengers leave by front door

some more. Then he calls
Sorry that is all, watch Your

Then. too, II IS not only the
public that aggravates these
drivers but they have troubles
Of their own. For one thing |
cannot understand why the
Plymouth bus runs over Knodell
avenue. when that street IS so
narrow with cars parked on botn
sides OF the street so these
buses cannot pass each other
unless one or the other pulls
over 10 the curb. when Grinnell
avenue from Erwin 10 French
road is a wide street with fac
torres on both sides
This route alone Is enough 10
try the patience of any bus
driver.
BY the way, I THINK every
third bus Is supposed 10 travel
over Grinnell avenue during
rush hours hut i seldom. docs
So lerS not blame inc bus
driver but try and have our
correct change, step backward
in the aisle and leave by rear

And, housewives. please do not

Of Decision
Initiation in the Concept of Government
iii
BY MERRYLE STANLEY RUHENSER-

THERE will be no relief from the devastating effect
family living standards of confscatory taxation until
the whole concept of government is re-examned and
streamlined.
Even the ending of the war itself will not provide
the necessary relief unless the citizens demand reversal
after the armsce of tendencies to blow the of
governmental activity.
The time has come to challenge at its roots the far
reaching faacy that the government do everything
All the annals of AnaerieaHexPef The economic
field point to the contrary
Government, national state local, has never
attained the efficiency and proficiency of wel-managed
business enterprises.
Nor have government fiscal officers performed as
well as in keeping expenditures within receipts as have
typical American housewives who operate the family
budget
THE election results indicate that the establish
ment of the Withholding tax last July constituted
intellectual revolution
For the withholding tax has made it perfectly clear
to every working that he gives up something to pay
for the cost of government.
This vitiates the Santa Claus myth to the
effect that government gives the citizen something for
nothing
clear what Franklin D. Roosevelt his Pittsburgh
speech the campaign of 1892 when said paid
in the sweat of every who labors
The federal treasury is in truth empty for
the contributions of citizens taxes and loans which
merely deferred
Thus government not give citizens without
first taking away something from others.
IT'S POWER is chiefly rob Peter to pay Paul
TO the idle.
In the circumstances the definition of prosperity by the
late A. Vanderlip employment labor
high needs to be modernized
At present during the armament boom. have full
employment of labor high wages but the activities do
spell prosperity measured by increased material webng
of typical families.
The leak consists of excessive government which
this taking 90 of all goods and services
duced according to Donald NJ Nelson chairman of the War
Production Board
After the there be a program of drastic
workers farmers and others retain for family enjoyment
larger ratio of what they create
CVEN while the lasts there should be greater scrutiny
Of governmental expenditures national local
The maady of excessive spending losing its popular
appeal The election results challenge Harry Hopkins dcum
of spend and spend, elect and elect
On the contrary, the glamorous Of
will be the prudent spender and the efficient administrator
He will have vote appeal because he will be able lift
the retarded living standards of the people by restoring
thrifty and enterprising beadwnners and their families
larger ratio Of their years output.
From this viewpoint economy and honesty government
take important sociological significance and glamour.
