Preface

Those who still regard the Constitution of the United States as a sacred trust must question the substitution of public ownership for the institution of private property. Constitutional restraints in all capitalistic countries on income and inheritance taxes have been lifted. Taxation is today the open door to public ownership.

Unless we raise a constitutional bulwark to stay the floodtide of Socialism at this time, an acceptance of Socialism is inevitable.

ScoviLLE Hamlin.
