well let us relieve ourselves of this revolutionary Bolshevik statement. I
find it in the December Harper's Monthly (by the way, have you noticed
the new arper's? It's one of the best magazines in the country for men
H
en who think). Says the writer:
and wom
One of the greatest dangers which now confronts us is the in-
creasing demand for ill-considered legislation and the increasing
readiness of would-be reformers to rely on authority rather than
on public sentiment for securing their ends. When the republic was
s than law-
first founded we had more to fear from law-breakert this life of
makers ... people believed in individual liberty.... Bu
liberty has gradually given place to a zeal for standardization. • To-
day it is from the law-makers rather than from the law-breaker that
our American traditions of self-government have most to fear. What
can we do to protect ourselves against this spirit of over-regulation
which seeks to place under official control not only the organization
of industry and commerce, but the conduct, and even the thought,
of the people themselves? ... They have in their own hands, if they
wish to apply it, a simple though perilous remedy. If any consider-
able number of citizens who are habitually law-abiding think that
some particular statute is bad enough in itself or dangerous enough
in indirect effects to make it worth while to block its enforcement,
they can do so.... The members of any civilized community actually
ass their judgment a great deal in deciding how far they will obey
law which they regard as bad or even inconvenient for the com-
munity.... There is no revolution and nothing like it.... The offi-
cials charged with the enforcement of the law simply see that it is
beyond their power to secure obedience to it. If those who passed
the law or secured its passage are wise, they will acquiesce in this
result. If the police look the other way when such a law is broken
its bad effects are avoided without much harm to anybody.... The
efforts to enforce legislation regarding Sunday amusements, for in-
stance, have usually produced an amount of vexation and trouble far
out of proportion to any tangible results that could be expected or
