Political Misnomers
In reading Mr. Felix Morley’s
excellent new book, “Freedom and
Federalism,” my attention has
been drawn to some political
misnomers which Mr. Morley de
cries and which I have long in
tended to bring to the attention
of the public.
First, there is the misapplica
tion of the term “federal gov
ernment” to refer to the central
government in Washington. This
has also led to the practice of
referring to the centralization of
power as “federalism.” A feder
al government is one of divided
powers, whereby a group of pol
itical subdivisions get together
and delegate certain enumerated
powers to a central government
in order to form a federal union.
We who espouse the cause of
States’ Rights favor federalism
in its true sense, whereby powers
are divided between the central
government and the states so as
to preserve our freedom against
dictatorship and totalitarian gov
ernment. The very point Mr. Mor
ley makes in his book is that our
freedom depends on maintain
ing our federal system of gov-
e r nment. Wherever federalism
has vanished—the best example
being in Germany with the advent
of Hitler—all powers have been
draw.i to the central government
and individual liberty has per
ished.
Many also make the mistake
of referring to our form of gov
ernment as being a democracy
rather than a republic. A pure
or absolute democracy is one in
which the neople meet and pass
their own laws. Our government
is a republic. The sovereignty re
sides b ut they e-
lect repn^seWBtfives to take care
of th^ir affairs of government.
Since vpur gpyernment is one of
divided And'/^Jjarate powers we
might more ™ correctly describe
our form of government as being
a compound republic. James Mad
ison, generally referred to as the
father of the Constitution, has
expressed his preference for a
republic over a democracy with
these words: “A democracy. . .
will be confiped to a small spot.
A republic may be extended over
a large region.”
Another misnomer is the ap
plication of the term “liberal”
to a socialist. It is a favorite
trick of “share the wealth” rad
icals to hide (.behind the pleasant
sounding appellation of “liberal”
which is designed to make them
appear to be merely broadmind
ed. We should not permit this.
At least, we should not contri
bute to the deception by getting
in the habit of referring to them
as “liberals.” This particularly
applies to the Americans for
Democratic (Socialistic) Action,
commonly called the ADA.
While on this general subject,
I might add that I make a prac
tice of capitalizing the “S” in
the word “State” when it refers
to a State in our political union.
Our States Reserve this respect.
Besides, during modern times,
when the States are being down
graded in favor of a central go
vernment, I feel it is important
to counteract the trend with ev
ery means at our command. This
is one. v ; .
Government Decompetition
I am glad to report that the
Bureau of the Budget is requir
ing all agencies of the central
government to complete by the
end of this month an evaluation
of all their commercial-industrial
activities and to discontinue
them where appropriate. This
new policy has the twofold pur
pose of furthering the free enter
prise system and permitting go
vernment agencies to concentrate
their efforts on primary objec
tives. The agencies will be re
quired to justify their continued
competition with private enter
prise on any one of the following
three criteria: (1) That nation
al security requires government
operation of the facility; (2)
That procurement from private
industry would be unreasonably
costly; (3) That procurement of
comparable goods or services
from private enterprise is clearly
unfeasible.
The most recent inventory—the
spring of 1956—revealed almost
20,000 government-operated bus
iness activities that employed
340,000 persons and had assets
valued at $12 billion.
This decompetition directive is
a wholesome policy and merits
the support of all our people.
