Mr. Marrlnes S. Eecles,
Washington, D. G#
Dear Mr. Eecles:

After reading your l e t t e r to Senator Byrd of Virginia
in yesterday's Few York Tribune, I donft think i t will take the Democ r a t i c Senator Byrd long to show up the hollow shell game of Few Dealism where by creating less and less you will have more and more. Whyf
h e l l f the Hew Dealers have proven
to the Americans in the past five
and one-half years they haven r t brains enough to end their man made depression.
Your l e t t e r reads something like the answers we used to
get from Secretary Wallace of words to t h i s effect: sorry you can't see
that by producing less and less you will have more sn$ more and by robbing Mr. John Public of h i s wealth he can buy more end more. Wellf just
turn back to 1932 when the New Dealers were shouting a #16,000,000,000
debt is t e r r i b l e , this will have to be paid by the sweat of a l l workers!
I wonder what will pay the beastly Hew ^eal debt of $40,000f000,000*
The interest on this debt takes the entire earnings of 1,000,000 men at
flOOO. per year and this is the smallest item on their debt l i s t . It
also takes the lion share of the wealth of the dead plus the confiscation of the earning of nearly a l l business to try and balance the Hew
Deal mistakes. S t i l l , the debt r i s e s by about |5,000,000,000 a year*
with 10,000,000 men s t i l l unemployed, half of our people one third fed
and with millions who have lost their homes. And then you fellows try
to t e l l Mr. John Public this is good for himl ff'ell, he will be a bigger
fool than i would think he i s if he ever wants to see a third Hew Deal
term.
It i s about time for more common democratic and Bepublican
wealth
creative
ideas and away with Hew Dealism for ever, life
don f t need any of the European ^isms11 in this Country. Let's stay at
home and mind our ovn business and end this man made depression in a
Country where we have more i*od natural wealth than we can use plus gold
and silvereaough to l a s t us a billion years. We don't need to go foreign
to give away our money to buy their wealth to pauperize their Countries
sncf our own.
Let the farmers create wealth and put men to work instead of bribing them with the hard earned d o l o r s of Mr. John Public
which places him in a position where he can only buy l e s s and less every
year which in turn creates idle factories. Your system has this Country
so close to bankruptcy that i will bet you a hundred dollars the Federal
debt would reach #60,000,000,000 in five more years which would take
close to a yearly salary of 2,000,000 men to pay the i n t e r e s t . Why, the

Amerioan industrial dollar has reached the low earning power of about
two per cent. It i s no wonder business i s afraid to expand under Hew
Deal ism. Set back to doing things African and you will see the Amerioan standard of living improve sixty per cent.
Yours for doing things American,
