wider sense was the Christian Com
monwealth. It's chief goal was the sal,
walton of souls.
To save souls, the church exhorted
men to live Christian lives - to be
Christians in their every activity. 1t
protected the poor against the rich,
inflicting punishment for usury, ava
rice, and cruelty. Poverty was not a
crime; riches, on the other hand, were
scanned with suspicion. The way to
the highest esteem and the only one
was service to God and man.
The purpose of reviewing this part
of our history is not to determine
whether the system was good, bad or
Indifferent. They are facts however;
facts that must be kept in mind if we
are to understand our present-day con-
flicts.
Something has been happening to
the old ideas on what is most worth
while in life, what constitutes the COM
mon good, and the democracy inspired
by the Gospel. What has happened
during these lost centuries throws
light on the modern conflicts and crisis.
We need reverence for history. We
need to review the changes taking
place in order to understand our adj
versaries and their motives. Without
this in mind, we can't even Judge
charitably.
The pre-industrial era was, of
course, simple agricultural economy
Life for the average worker was gen.
orally chacterized by poverty, igno-
ance and lack of the opportunity to
advance, due to the established heir
archy of class. The work was hard,
the hours long. There was little OPP
portunity for self-improvement.
But something was happening in
the West, something few had dreamed
of and still fewer had planned for.
The mechanization Of industry was on.
The Industrial Revolution was in mo-
ton. Mass production in factories re-
placed hand labor. More goods were
produced for more people with less
human energy expended. But the Rev
olution did even more; accompanying

VANCOUVER, Wash.-(NRECA)
"A third draft of the "more juice
less squeeze" Columbia River Devel-
opment Corporation legislation, which
would create four-state public cleo
trio corporation to boost the Pacific
Northwest's tagging power program,
has been released by the Northwest
Public Power Association.
Modelled after the St. Lawrence
Seaway Development Corporation
Act, which was signed by President
Eisenhower last May, the corporation
would be empowered to issue fifty
year electric revenue bonds to build
generation and TRANSMISSION facilities
and would be supervised by a five
man board of directors, initially ap-

just, SO economical, and so efficient!
Yet it is the opposition to this trenc
to work out common problems through
the government that makes the writ
ing of just tax laws so difficult.
How can the American businessman
or his apologists, in good conscience,
object to the idea expressed by Lin
coin that "The legitimate object of
government is to do for the people
what needs to be done but which they
cannot by individual effort do at all
or do so well for themselves?
1t was the man of business, finance
and industry that first asked for gov
eminent aid in the form of protective
tariffs. 1t was this group that asked
for and received vast grants of land
for the building of railroads and it
is this group that now asks for govern
ment aid in the form of tax write-offs,
subsidies for air lines, steamship lines
and expansion
What kind of reasoning or lack of
reasoning leads people to sabotage eff
forts to write tax program designed
for the common good?
The answer is that the common
good" means different things to diff
ferent people. We live and work under
the powerful influences of philoso-
phies or beliefs that differ widely on
the nature and purpose of government
as well as on the meaning of democ-
racy This results in confusion of
ideas on what is good and what our
duties are towards our fellow men.
These opposing PHILOSOPHERS have
split us up, divided us into factions,
sometimes uniting but more often war
ring plotting and scheming against
each other.
Once we did have common uni
flying concept of life There was one
all-embracing teaching that tended to
regulate life in it's every aspect-re-
ligious, economic and political.

Middle Ages, the Christian Church
was the one Influential force directing

Taxation and Democracy

the promotion of democracy, the So
cialization of information, education
for more people, the search for better
health and more participation in the
social and political life for the ordi-
nary man. Under the conditions ush-
cred in, the worker who was frugal,
intelligent and ambitious could acquire
his own home. Besides, because of the
abundance of natural resources he
could take up land and become an
owner, citizen, voter. The age was full
of excitement, challenges, and hopes.
Never had men worked so willingly
at hard tasks, never had so much en-
ergy and ambition been released
New land was cleared, cities and
towns sprang up, new railroads, high
ways and canals were built, and, there
seemed no end to chronological adj
vancement.
1t seemed that when men are turned
loose to seek wealth and freedom
nothing but good will follow.
In the wild scramble for the free
dom to acquire the material necessities
of life, to become wealthy and to get
places, JnoTe were Oh course, dangers.
Some would naturally get hurt, run
over and bruised And that is what
happened.
Strong protests were voiced against
practices of extortion, deceit, over
work and ruthless pursuit of wealth to
the neglect of the old emphasis on
social responsibility.
But the new economic order was too
satisfying and exciting to be spoiled
by rigid scruples about riches and con-
Germ for others.
Materialism was replacing idealism.
Nothing must stand in the way. The
new order swept everything before it.
To retain or achieve peace of mind,
mans daily activities must pretty we'll

Delegates to the recent annual

Recommendation to which the
delegates objected include those to !:
1. Abolish the Rural liberalization
Administration. In its place would be
established "Rural Electrification
Corporation through which the CO.
operatives would borrow money from
private financial institutions instead
of from the federal government.
Delegates said this would at least
double the interest rate on coon
loans, weaken their competitive posi-
ton and result in higher rates for all
rural users of electricity and tele-
phone service.

technical assistance carries this idea
forward effectively" Campbell also
urged
that Congress spend more for

that the program be held togeth-

that technical help be extended
independent of military support;
that private, voluntary agencies
be used to support government aid;

ming; and that technical co-opera-
ton" better describes this help than

Campbell said the Cooperative
League has always favored these
U. 5. and UN programs, "even if no
part or section" is devoted to co-ops
as such" But he suggested that cred

tically told in the story of Daniel
Boone, all the Daniel Boones, from

The western march was often ac-
companied with hardships, dangers,

hope for better days.
Better days did come. when the peo-
pie had sufficiently conquered the en-
