But I do not care so much about the past. I am blessed with excellent health. I have worked all my life and have ;no undue craving for idleriess. The lost money could be re -earned and -re-saved. But the prerequisite to my starting anew is gone. What the fin- ancial world ealls "confidence" is lacking. Oh, boy, how my confidence has -failed me in these dark years. The splendid in -vestment house which sold -ene Krueger & Toll stock, the Presi- dent who told me from the -White House that brokers' loans at six bil- lion were not too big, the celebrated professor of economics who told ma n October, 1929, that stock prices lad reached a "permanently high Plateau" -all these have cntributed -to my present nerveless state. Now .3 have a President who admits that things aren't quite 0.' K.,but he "'seeks the kind of dollar Which a zeneration henee will have the same -purchasing pewee as the dollar we hope -bp attain, in the , near future," Perfectly bully, but how do I IMO4W .that he is going, to find it? No one -.ever :has found quite such a dollar. I don't know anything about econ- :cmies but I know what I like. I like jeb and a living and the ability to look ahead and. say, "I shall save • scene money for a cruise to the West Indies next -March and some more for 'Billy's college in 1938." Lots of people, like me, aren't so hot about the recreation of society on new pet - terns. 'What we crave is no kind of movelty, even in dealing, but some nikind of certainty. .1 look about me. To the west I see -.striking farmers who wish to print more greenbacks. To the east I see Mussolini bestriding the dead corpse :of liberty and Hitler thinking about the new Tag. To the south they are :plowing the cotton under. Do these :prospects give me a feeling of secur- ity for 1959? Is my confidence re- stored when I read -in books by our 'best contemporary thinkers that 1. saving stoney is all a -mistake, and that the profit motive is fated to pass .away because the "basic motivation. "involved is too low for what we have ecome to expect of civilized life?" profit motive run like everything else [by the federal government . • Don't misunderstand eme I have no grudge against having. my econ- omy planned.

Lacking back over my life I dis- cover that its prevailing character- istic has . been its meek. acceptance and mahy currently popular ideas of erages. In dae.„I even liked jass government, economics, and even bey- ond drank gin. :Buterom ell the illu sions there standout two which shale ed .ray life and fabricated what my. abituaif notices, if any, will refer to as my as my career. Oee was the the illusion. that I was performing some definite service for the good of mankind when I enlisted- in the army and went to France in 1917. The other was in 1926 to 1929 I bought stock and made myself participant in the future prosperity ef America. Those were acts of subjection to mass emotion and I am ashamed of them. Financial indePen.dance • of 70, or a cubicle in the State house scheme, I would like at least in that evening of my life to have preserve my self- respect. To do so, I am- going to be wary of new ideas and new emotions, however generally indulged in by scientists, ecomonisti, statemen, writ- ers of editorials, and however much, in the language of Wall Street, they can "attract the outside public." 1 think perhaps' I .shall even :be wary of the authoritarian state, the planned ecomony, and the subjugation of the profit motive. A bright young professor, who has the -confidence of the. Brain. Trust, - tells me that the new society will solve -the economic problem, that the -time mall Shortly arrive when all linen will retire at 46 on ample ,government pensions. Neff -ally 'jolly, ,of course, but although I am 44, I don't really want to retire next year :and I never did want a government peneicm. I wanted my own money eand my own house and my own ii- conie flowing in to me from my own 'Sife's efforts. I thought that. my am- bitions were reasonable andthat they would be fulfilled.
