The enchanting promises of paternalism under the name of a New Deal have, like the false gold of the foolish prospectors, deceived many minds. Those who believe they have found the key to the vault in which is stored the real gold of “a new social order” that will buy “a more abundant life,” and “greater security for all,” have posted their location notices upon the door of the federal government and are celebrating by the riotous spending of public funds. When at last they have exhausted the taxpayers’ ready cash and mortgaged all wealth, thus ruining the credit of the nation, they will retire to sleep off the debauch. Upon awakening, they will be informed by those who saw the folly of it all, that what they found was nothing but another kind of worthless fools gold.
