Competition Of The Future

(Continued from Page 15)

In is my opinion that the viewpoint represented by Donald Richberg and the Administration is representative of the mildest form of control from above, that is, control by agencies of the government, that we are at all likely to g-t; and that it behooves every business man to not only give personal thought to and to take an active interest in ihb consideration of this problem, but to see to it that the organizations through which he voices his opinions take a cooperative.attitude with the position represented bv the Administration's view and endeavor to go along with them in the writing of future legislation, rather than to simply buck everything that is proposed. I feel certain that, if we either do nothing or just oppose t'hat is proposed, we shall get legislation much more difficult to work with, much more ristrictive and likely to result in much less real freedorn of competition and-real opportunity for profit from your exertions than will be the case by assuming a cooperative attitude and working along with the Administration.

I believe, and I trust that I have been able to get you gentlemen to see, that we make a great mistake in spending all of our energy looking at and condemning the faults and weaknesses that have developed under the present National Industrial Recovery Act; and that we should instead look back at the conditions that prevailed in the years before we had this legislation, at the chaos u'hich existed at that time, at the fervency with which we almost prayed for an opportunity for industry to be permitted to govern itself, to make its own rules and regulations and laws of competition; and having done that, to conclude that NRA has bien a real step forward, has been a truly constructive force in reorganizing business and bringing us out of the doldrums of the depression, and can be made a permanent force for good in the future by constructive cooperation with the Administration.
