Legal, But Dangerous
By a unanimous dJCision, the
Supreme Court has dismissed a
suit brought by a number of unti
iity companies to determine the
legality of the Federal govern
ment’s grants and leans to commu- !
nities for the purpose of erect’ng
munica plants. The fourt decided
that the grants, being for public
works, were constitutional.
This settles the lcgad side of a
much dehat-.d question. It d"es
not settle the much more impor
tant question of the wisdom of a
democracy proniotiong socialism.
The policy of cur g vernment sub
sidizing munieipal ties to build
tax-exemp electric plants, is but
the fiist step toward undermining
private enterprise as we have
known it in our nation. Once en
trencehd, the politicians will ex
tend their hold to other businesses.
l.j practically every instance,
towns which have accepted Fed
c al grants and loans to build
municipal electric plants were ade
quately and economically served
by heavily taxed, publi.ly regu
lated private electric companies.
When these towns took the grants
factually public doles.) it meant
that all the taxpayers took the
1 tins, it meant that every local
] ropery-owner was mortgaged to
pay part of the cost of providing
. .service which she had already
c Toyed without financial respon
bility on his part.
The people should not be bl nd
cd to the ultimate danger of such
: government policy—each time it
. extend.d, their f m private
l ights ar.d liberties are redu ed,
Feb' own opportunities to make
i n independment living are re
stricted and the iorn hand of of
ficialism tightens its grasp on the
individual citizen.
I- TNALIZING THE POOR
Tt i« a rotrble fa<t that a great
c ! f the most telling opposition
f- tax ire; rnd 1 gis’ating chain
nd other 1 rge-scale nv r hand s
rr yy stems out < f business, he i
>me from liberal and radical
5pokesmen a”d publcutionr.
These si u ces c r.' ha.ulj be cal-1
leu tile voice of “big business” or
“entrenched wealth." But they ap
nrecite the manifold virtues of
mass distribution of necessities in
making life easier for the laborer,
•he small-salaried worker and
other persons of moderate means
to whom the difference of a f *w
cen’rs in all manner of oommodi-j
ties is of great moment.
If these low-cost outlets are des
troyed, the poor will bear the
brunt of increased prices. Nothing
else can happen because excessive
tv- punitiv taxee on low-cot retail
prices up, it buys but ten, where
;t bought five pounds of meat, it
buys four. This is vitally impor
’•>nt to those milPons of families
facing t.he week’s wage pay the!
reek’s bills.
Low-cost merchandising. wh<th
•r of food, clothes, furniture,
lardware or anything else—is the
>eor man’s friend. It came into
»xistence, not to s°rve the weal
thy, but to serve the masses of
people to whom the living budget
;s a very real issue. When our
’awmakers hamper of destroy low
cost merchandising. they are
chiefly penalizing the man o
woman who works for a smaP
’■alary, or wages, or who lives on
an annuity or a p nsion.
