100 Years Ago
We'll Get Ii,
Lincoln Says
WASHINGTON, D.C.—Dec.
6—A treasury department
spokesman has estimated that
the war with the Confederate
states will cost the Union at
| least $500 million within the
next year.
The prediction followed refer-
|
|
|
|
ence by President Lincoln in his
State of the Union message ear-
lier this week to the financial
support by individuals and
banks of the Federal govern-
ment’s war efforts.
{ “It is gratifying to know that
the expenditures made neces-
| sary by the rebellion are not be-
yond the resources of the loyal
people,’ said the chief execu-
tive in his message.
The treasury aide said the
cost of the conflict is now about
1.5 million—and mounting fast.
o meet this spiraling outlay,
loans of at least $250 million
will be needed during the up-
coming 12 months, he asserted.
* Ed *
REACTION continued to pour
in, meanwhile, to the Presi-
dent’s austere, yet optimistic,
report to Congress and the
people.
Surprisingly little of the
comment has been adverse
so far, although Mr. Lincoln
laced his report with re-
marks on controversial is-
sues ranging from the role
of labor in a free society to
the Confiscation act.
Mr. Lincoln jolted many fac-
tions of Congress with the asser-
tion that the Union must extend
a diplomatic hand to the re-
cently-organized Negro nations
of Liberia and Haiti.
* * *
AFTER a detailed denuncia-
tion of the African slave trade,
the President declared:
“If any good reason exists
why we should persevere longer
{ in withholding our recognition
of the independence and sov-
ereignty of Haiti and Liberia, I
am unable to discern it.”
Swinging the theme to the
Confiscation act, under which
Negroes owned by disloyal
slaveholders were ordered set
free, Mr. Lincoln said flatly:
“The legal claims of certain
persons to the labor and service
of certain other persons have
become forfeited.”
* * *®
COMMENTING on ‘‘the effort
to place capital on an equal
footing with, if not above, labor,
| in the structure of govern-
ment,” the President declared
that labor had in recent years
assumed the reins of the na-
tion’s destiny. !
This Week...in
THE CIVIL WAR
1 ay exactly 100 years ago this week in the Civil War—told i in
wwe tanguage and style of today.) ;
Set 1862 War Cost
At $500 Million, Plus
THE PRESIDENT
Excerpts from his lengthy
discourse on this topic: -
“It is assumed that labor is
available only in connection
with capital; that nobody la-
bors unless somebody else,
owning capital, somehow by the
use of it induces him to la-
bor... .
‘Now, there is no such re-
lation between capital and la-
bor as assumed, nor is there
any such thing as a free man
being fixed for life in the con-
dition of a hired laborer. . . .
Both these assumptions are
false, and all inferences from
them are groundless . . .
“Labor is prior to, and inde-
pendent of, capital. Capital is
only the fruit of labor, and
could never have existed if la-
bor had not first existed. Labor
is the superior of capital and
deserves much the higher con-
sideration . . .
“No men living are more
worthy to be trusted than those
who toil up from poverty—none
less inclined to take or touch
aught which they have not hon-
estly earned. Let them beware
of surrendering a political pow-
er which they already possess,
and which, if surrendered, will
surely be used to close the door
of advancement against such as
they, and to fix new disabilities
and burdens upon them, till all
of liberty shall be lost.”
