WHAT IS THE REAL BASIS 4 OF AMERICAN PROSPERITY In a recent statement of the bas-,l- s of American prosperity, P. H. Gadsden, President of the Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce, pointed out two reasons which, in his ' . pinion, are responsible for this nations preeminent position. He said that the true answer to the question is to be found in the wisdom and foresight of the makers of the Declaration of Independence a'ad the constitution of the United States. They founder our overnment upon two great economic principles. The first guarantees the right of individual iniatiative and private enterprises, as opposed to government ownership and control. The second basic pinciple which was adopted only after many misgivings and heated debates, was that no state should have the right to' levy imposts or state commerce. taxes on inter- These two great national policies, in my jurtgnQpnt, have contributed more than any others to the position which we have attained as the most prosperous nation in the world. The one accounts for the inventive genius the consciousness that advancement was limite oinly by industry and ability the freedom from the paralyzing effect of social cast and the deadening of rigid class distinction. The second principle has made us a nation with self-sustaini- ng markets extending and , expanding to keep pace with the extraordinary development of our resources. Prior to the adoption of the Constitution, each state imposed customs taxes Rnd restrictions upon the imports from other states. The ability of market the products of field and comprising shop over a territory over 3.000,000 square miles with a population of over 100 million, coupled with a transportation system covering this entire nation, has So stimulated production that we have evolved the American doctrine of mass production. In no other way can we account for the fact that, whereas at the- fouindinrr of this government the total wealth of the world was about 100 billions, the wealth of the United States today Is estimated to be in excess of 240 billions. How else can we account for of the the fact that with one-sixtranswe of the world, population beneuseful form into the for form fit of mankind over 50 per cent of f''p raw materails of the world: thrt in the United States is found 50 per cent of the taHroad rv1nage; 75 per cent of telephone service and 90 per cent of the - th c- -r Big Cause for Clover Failure Acreage Declining Because of Spread of Anhrac-nos- e in South.
