Mark well these words: YOUR LOSS IS GREATER THAN MINE. JOHN HUMMEL "Gun Play In The Market Place" The following condensed ver-sion of GUN PLAY IN THE MAR-KET PLACE, published by the Foundation for Economic Ed-ucation is printed here by per-mission. The stage is occupied by sev-eral persons id-entified as Soc-iety. A farmer en-ters with a bushel of wheat and a consumer begins to bargain with him. After some haggling, they agree upon a price of $1.00. The farmer has tried hard to get $1.50 and isn't too happy. Suddenly he whips out a eun and demands another 50 cents. The consumer suggests they call off the deal, but the farmer insists on --and gets --another 50 cents. Society is duly shocked, and af-ter considerable discussion and voting persuades the farmer to re-- , turn the 50 cents, promising to work out a more satisfactory sol-ution. The obvious leader in this discussion is a person who wants to do good to everyone. The next scene shows the far-mer and consumer bargaining over another bushel of wheat. Again they agree of $1.00. The farmer looks questioningly at the er, who nods his head, and a man wear-ing a sign "Tax Collector", and carrying the farmer's gun steps forward. He takes 60 cents from the consumer, pockets 10 cents, and gives 50 cents to the farmer. The farmer is pleased. Photograp-hers ask him to pose shaking hands with the beaming do-goo- der, with the rest of society aligned as background for the picture. Meanwhile, the consumer is be-ing quietly interviewed by the nar-rar- or. Narrator: You seem disatisfied with this transaction; yet your wheat cost only $1.00, a price you were willing to pay. Consumer: Yes, but there was a 60 tax on the transaction, which means the wheat cost me $1.60. Narrator: But surely, you do not object to a legal taxi Consumer: Legal, perhaps, but re-markably like the other tran-saction which was deemed illegal. The tax collecter used the same gun to take the 60 cents from me that the farmer used when he robbed me of 50 cents. Now that robbery is legalized, it cost me more money and society is no longer concerned in protecting me from the robber. Narrator: How can you describe this democratic action of society as legalized robbery? The people voted for it. Consumer (Shaking his head and slowly walking away):. I only know that in both instances my money- - the product o my labor-wa- s taken from me against my will and given to a person who did not earn it. (He turns to address society): You have taken my property to do "good" a member of your group, Legals To Mortgagor by Mortgagee in pro- -, ceeding to foreclosure and sale.

The framers of the Declara-tion of Independence embodied in it the celebrated proposition that "all men are cre-ated equal' '.This sentence may be interpreted in two different ways. It may be taken to mean that all men are equal in res -- oect of their claim for justice, for humane treatment and the kindly feeling of their fel-lows, for opportunities to make the best of their powers of service and of happiness. On the other hand, it may be, and sometimes 'has been taken to mean, that all men are born with equal capacities for intellectual and moral devel-opment. There can be no doubt, I think, that the former interpre-tation is the true one. The un-truth of the second is so obvious, and in all ages has been so ob-vious, that we do wrong to the great men who framed the prop-osition, if we assume that the sec-ond meaning was intended by them. In the former sense, the propos-ition conveys a great moral truth and a moral ideal which all men can accept as fundamental prin-ciple of conduct." (Dr. Wm. McDougall, Professor of Psy-chology- . Harvard Collewee.lf "Under Natural Law and Na-ture's God, all men are created free and equal. Equal in what 7 In morals? No. Physically? No. Mentally? No. Racially? No. All men are equal only in the sense of their creation: the right to be free and live: equal, with all other men to gain that living. All else are grants, of gifts, by the Go-vernment...." (Vattell, "The Laws of Nature and of Nations.") 'That all men are born to equal rights is true. Every being has a right to his own, as clear, as mor-al, as sacred, as any other being has. This is as indubitable as a moral government in the universe. But to teach that all men are born with equal powers and fac-ulties, to equal influence in society to equal property and advantages through life, is as gross a frauc. as glaring an imposition on the credulity of the people as everwas practiced For honor's sake... for truth and virtue's sake, let American philosophers and poli-ticians despise it.'

Plaintiff --vs- CUFTON DILLON and LURA DILLON, husband and wife; and RUSSELL K. WILHELMSEN and PHYLLIS M. WILHELMSEN, hus-band and wife.

Dated this 11th day of Mav.1950 ZAR E. HAYES OF PUGSLEY, HAYES , RAMPTON k WATKISS Attorneys for the Plaintiff 721 Continental Bank Bldg. Salt Lake City, Utah It would appear that the Ca-nadians are developing another new market in the United States. And ridiculous as It appears at first blush, that new export item Is baked bread. . So far. the influx of cheaper priced Cana-dian bread is confined to De-troit and the aaredasj.aBcuet nthetj figures on the' growth of this business are impressive. At the present time, the im-- Here is a nation with a high standard of living that due to American labor and farm poli-cies can whip a segment of U. S. business to death. Probably in a recent meeting of the Senate Small Business Committee Sen. Russell Long stated the problem in a nutshell saying "What we have to watch out for is the foreign producer who is paying 15 or twenty cents per hour for labor and who has f equipment as good as ours; even buys our raw material and brings it back in here far below our production cost." He continued by saying, "The average American tariff on goods coming in here is about 10 and that is only on things that carry a tariff. Now If you are paying a wage that is about four times as high as the other fellow, that 10 tariff is no hill for a. stepper at all, he can just leap over it. I think it is factors like that where you really have a I right to demand protection, rath-er than let some competitor get a big advantage over you and continue to whip you." This is an interesting com-ment for a responsible member of Congress made in Washing-ton D. C. where lo these many years, the do-good- the so-cialistic planners, and the rest of that screaming-raeem- ie tribe have been pushing to even fur-ther abolish the protective U. S. tariff system on the basis that this will cause everybody throughout the world to love each other as brothers. -- The experience so far with U. S. tariff cutting has proved one thing about love. Given half a chance, the for-eign employer of cheap labor loves to undersell American busi-ness in America. In the mean-time, American unemployment figures hold at a high' rate. r m i ported bread is c. W. Harder running around 7 million pounds. On the basis of an average American family consumption of bread annually of somewhere around 440 pounds, this repre-sents a supply for only some 16,-0- 00 families, which is not too im-pressive in the bread business. But on the other hand, this business has increased 1&90 in ten years, is still growing. The reasons for this silly phe-nomena are quite plain. For one thing, the U. S. price support policies' on wheat keeps the prices of this staple up about 30 higher in this country than across the border. In addition, whereas Detroit bakers must pay $2.05 per hour for unskilled work-ers, rate in Canada is $1.50. Canadian bread was thus sell-ing in Detroit for 17 cents for a pound and a quarter loaf versus 24 cents for the American prod- -, net. This has precipitated a price war which has bronght the American product down to around 19 cents, but Canadian bread has by the same token dropped down to a dune or less. Here is an example not predi-cated on Oriental coolie labor. Nttlontl r4rtlon of Indtpwident Bulnw OKAY, SEVWOUR.
