of despair. We must make people see that conditions might
be MUCH worse. The man who has no 30b and no money!
for food, fuel, and clothing may wonder how conditions could
be worse for him; he fails to realize how much worse it;
would be if ALL his fellow citizens were out of work instead
of merely 20 per cent of them, so that no one could pay taxes j
or contribute to relief funds. The farmer who accepts loss-1
than-cost prices for his products may wonder how his plight
could be any worse; we must remind him that in case of i
revolution he would be subject to aimed mobs that would
plunder his fields and storehouses and take what they wished
without paying a cent. The man who has lost all his money J
in a bank failure must be shown that were it not for the
timely action of the goveniment, hardly a bank in the
country would be open today, in which case business would
be utterly ruined and his chances of recovering his losses;
would le infinitely more distant than they are today. r j
We admit that conditions are ban, but the man is a fool :
who says they couldn't be worse. There arc men in office 1
who have made mistakes, but there are men out of office
who would have made mistakes ton times worse, under the!
same circumstances. 'Hie majority of voters will consider
a man's ideas and attitudes, his words and his deeds before
giving him the responsibilities of public office.
