Excerpt from Reconstructing America
Intimately associated with questions of government reach are vital issues of finance, of administration, of credits, of possible deficits to increase the burden of taxation, and the invasion of private rights of vested interest in privately established businesses - whether the small retailer or the holder of public franchises.
These are reconstruction questions that concern at least the temporary period of readjustment through which we must pass in the coming two or three years.
