THURSDAY, OCTOBER S, 1935 GREED—THE LAWBREAKER The great lawbreaker is greed. Of course men break laws because of oth er passions, spch as revenge, vanity and the like. But gfreed breaks the law twenty times to where any other feel ing breaks! it once. The mainspring of every burglar’s and pickpoibket’s career is greed. They want “dough” and they want it quick. *As a result, we have the blackjack, breaking in, and stealing. \ , Greed was equally behind the activi ties of Robin Hood of yore and the mode^ legislator. The principle upon ' which ihey ‘ acted is the same. They took money from those who had it as an excuse that they were protecting those who had it not. The gist of all opposition to the campaign of 1936, which has alreadiy begun and which will increase iiTin- tensity and vigor..from now on. But we don’t hesitate to assert that before it is over ahd the smoke cleared away, everybody in the United States wiU l^ave had a chance to hear every side of every question debated over and ovei* again. ^ 1 r i ■ ^ ' ■. ■ • .

But they are all steadily broken. Wherever you . find a predominance of greed,' you find lawbreaking. Greed is the chiefest of our anti-social vices, and ranks first as our lawbreaker. ; WE CANT EVADE PAYDAY The Home^ Owners Loan Corpor ation during the brief period its existence, loaned three billions of dol- lai's to more than 900,000 persons. Reports reveal that already there have been 1,614 foreclosures and that the government is “taking in” homes at the’rate of 300 a'week. At the pres ent rate it is estimated that by the end of the year the total will have reached the 5,000 mark. Borrowers have fallen behind in interest pay ments $41,409,429, and on principal $.'14,283,505.78. These startling /igui^ show that the government has launched in the the^medical college.

United States Commissioner of Education said the other day-that what America needs most is free and general public discussion of public que!^tiun.s. We agree with him.. Our whole .American system of democracy lias its roots in the old Nqw England town meetings, in which every citizen .has a right to express himself freely on any public question. Out of tha^ .system of town meeting discussion grew the idea bf popular representa tion in the national House of Repre- t^entatives. It was felt that the colo- nisl.s had demon.slrated their, power of intelligent_reasoning and self-gov ernment by the exjierience of a cen tury and a half, in managing their own affairs th?opgh the medium of jiublic discussion. There has not been in many years t*uch a great variety of questions con cerning the common welfare of the American people, calling for public discussion, as are presented today. Not only are the numerous new elements which lately have been introduced into oujr political sy.stem still too little un- dtrstool by most folk, but there are nunverou.s* ^groups and voices ..advocat ing still farther and more basic chang es in our entire system of ^vemment. If, after full and free discussion, the people of America make up their minds to change the whole system of government, nobody can quarrel with that decision, for there is only one source from which our government de rives its powers, and that is from the . )>eople theinselves. Keeping that thought in mind, we should not only be tolerant of every exchange ,,of views and opinions, upon public affairs, but should encourage their diapusaion in various ways and places for the purpose of better in forming oura^vea upon the many fun damental issues which may reach down to the very roots of our democ- racy.
