MIR. POLLOCK OPENS: Whose
Morale? Not men earning more than
the reward allowed; certainly moi
that of men working with such a re-
ward in view. And these are the only
considerable classes Of any value to
the nationl Conceivably limitation of
income may bolster the morale OF
the e~nviously futile-but does that
matter?
1t would be as reasonable to ask
whether we could bolster the morale
of our armed forces by limiting pro-
motion or improve the human race
by Withdrawing the promise Of celes
tial reward.
1t seems ever less likely our fight
ing spirit will be reinforced by the
reminder we may be losing the lib
erty for which we are fighting. The
order to limit incomes, originally
proposed in the 1923 Communist
Party Platform, and twice rejected
by Congress. is as totalitarian as any
thing in Russia or Germany 1t af-
fects not only larger incomes, but
millions Of workers who depend on
them; it is a complete negation OF
the American idea that earnings are
limited only by a mans WI ability
and industry. Abraham Lincoln said:
II don't believe in a law to prevent
a man from getting rich. When n
starts poor, free society is such that
he knows he a better his condi-
ton"
MISS ELLICKSON CHALLENGES:
Mr.. Pollock apparently refers to
President Roosevelt's order limiting
salaries-but not other income-to
$25,000 a year after large deductions
and taxes. Soldiers, teachers, public
health workers, farmers and wage
arner know very well that they
will never earn that much. Surely
they are Of value to the nation! To
quote Lincoln after denying this is
as misleading as to call the Presi-
dents action totalitarian.
Most Americans realize that their
welfare depends upon the
well-being of the nation as a whole.
They share willingly in the sacrifices
which war has forced upon us.
MIR. POLLOCK REPLIES: Hop
do -wage-earners know they will
never earn that much? Most of
those earning it now began with low
incomes. The foundation of Lincoln's
free society" is that any man may
earn as much as his capacity permits.
Is the chance of the small wage
garner improved by limiting him-or
the large wage-earner? Miss Ellick-
suggests that wages be equal.
Would she say that the labor leader
should receive no more than a la
oorer? Or would she agree with
Theodore Roosevelt that, There is
more mischievous form of priv
lege than giving equal reward for
service 2"
