The (one who would teach us that the social
disorders and the inequalities of the talents of

leveled down through the power of the State and
compulsory organization, ia like one who thinks to
settle by some legislative alchemy all the problems
the individual himself must work out.
3uch concept overlook the fact that progress
hr* c nie through being free from political dqmi-
nr-tion.. America has become great because our
personal energies have been released from collect-
ive domination, and because we have been privi-
leged to work within -tlhe framework of the Bill of
■Rights. Our personal energy, ingenuity and crea-
tive ability has been released and the law and the
government have become our servant and . not our
master. -

Those who would make the Bill of Rights read
like an emancipator that provides by law the pann-
ce: for poverty and hands out largess for the non-
tkrifty, by uhe same token would lull a people who
have the privilege of a Democracy over them, to
where they would sell the secret of that birth-
right for a mess of pottage.

'MODERN PROGRESSIVES AND
THE BILL OF RIGHTS
The idea that some are advocating that a
people may have all sorts of security through the
p« wer of the State is a direct contravention of
th* Bill of Rights. Rights are not legislated—they
are in fact or they are not. Liberty and rights
and freedom of choice do not rest with th© results
