Indiana. He volunteered the information that he was almlng at a company donation to FEE. Wants me to help him with a program for Harvard Business School Alumni folks around the country. He is to be head man next year.

Umpired curling in P.M.

Ag and I dined at Club with Dorothy and Ben and then to evening matches. St. A. had a bad day. Almost won from Wisconsin, one of the best rinks and then proceeded to get clobbered by Minnesota and Alaska. Minnesota is doing by far the best curling I have ever seen - simply out of our class.

March 30. Attended a meeting this morning of 35 -40 curlers from all over the country, the aim being to organize a U. S. Curling Association. The idea was given enthusiastic approval and a committee of the group was appointed to effect same: Walter Selck, Chairman; Joseph Carson, Howard Etesen, H. K. Holley, Paul Moreland, Walter Rhodes, and LER.

The afternoon matches saw St. A. defeated by Illinois and an extremely exciting contest between underdog Michigan and undefeated Minnesota, the score tied in the ninth 11- ll, Detroit winning when Skip of Minnesota missed his last shot.

The Bill Reids, the Junius Coopers, Bill Haight, Don Dunn, Ag and I went to the Matador Room at the Stock Yards for dinner and thence to the Stadium for the last match of this unusual and very interesting championship. St. A. played Detroit and North Dakota to win top honors, a rink that can give a good account of itself against any anywhere. Hughston closed the event by awarding the cup, medals and so on. MF's tab was just short of $70,000, and maybe worth it.

March 31. All of us except Junius, to airport for AA's #20, 8:30A.M. for Idlewild. Routine. Bill Reid had two company cars on hand to drive all of us home.

Stock worth in excess of $5,000 sent by Gulf Oil.

April l. Phoned Howard Pew. We are to get together soon for 24 hours, including a game of golf.

To Canadian Club for luncheon with Leo and Fred Fairchild - Nominating Committee of FEE. Decided to re- elect same Officers and Executive Committee, to ask Howard Pew first and McBain second to fill the new office of Vice­ Chairman, to renominate all of those whose terms expire except Fleming, Jackson, McCarthy and to invite John Rettaliata, McHugh, Bob Gaylord and Paul Holden.

Phoned McHugh. He accepts.

Phoned Hutch, asking him to extend the invitation to Bob Gaylord.

Phoned Pew, asking him to accept Vice-Chairmanship of Board. Agreed.

Nelson Shepherd phoned from Sioux Falls, S. D., about Dean Berkeley attending 1957 - 25

our July Seminar. "Send him along;"

April 2. Phoned Jasper who had many interesting things to say, all favorable.

Phoned Hughston as absentee member of Nominating Committee. He agrees to all we did.

Phoned Paul Holden at Stanford. He accepts inviation to be Trustee.

Phoned Alberto in Washington. He is leaving for the Argentine in 10 days.

Alexander Jordan of Toronto here for several hours.

April 3. Irenee du Pont sends $3,000.

To Plaza Hotel for luncheon with Jeff Coolidge - to talk about FEE and ways he could help.

Herrell DeGraff, Secretary of FEE's Board, received, inadvertently, a mild collection letter and ''blew his top" in a letter to me, resigning and so on. He has a real low boiling point.

April 4. Phoned DeGraff. Said his letter "startled me." To make a long story short, he apologized for getting angry, asked that I destroy his letter and to forget his resignation.

A copy of my memo to St. A. Curlers is appended.

What a beautiful day. A heavy, wet snow - nature's pure, white preface to her coming-out party, when, I suspect, she will bedeck herself in brilliant greens.

April 5. We ought to do an essay on "The Right to Quit." It would be difficult to find an employee who doubts in the least his right to quit his job when and if he so chooses. However, few of these same persons accord a like freedom to the employer. Why shouldn't he too, be just as free to quit the arrangement?

We are always looking for the causes of socialism, for without knowing them how can we direct our writings? Maybe we stumbled onto a basic cause this morning at coffee. Harper and I were talking about the growing number of J people who run hither and yon, directionally no more sensible than a chicken \ with its head cut off, in search of happiness. They run for wealth, mink coats, gold Cadillacs, off to Europe, into crowds and they run thus because they can find no interest in themselves. These barren soils, lacking any ''inner Sovereignty," topple easily in the collectivistic direction. Self-reliance means no more to them them than a title Emerson used.

MEMORANDUM April 4, 1957

TO: The Curlers of St. Andrews

FROM: Ye Ed. of SB

SUBJECT: I Owe You A Report On U. S. Championship

The ten rinks entered in this National Round Robin competition finished in the following order:

w L Pts QE.E!

(Hibbing) MINNESOTA 8 1 115 60 (Chicago) ILLINOIS 7 2 104 68 (Minot) NORTH DAKOTA 6 3 89 80 (Portage) WISCONSIN 6 3 92 60 (Detroit) MICHIGAN 6 3 89 69 (Seattle) WASHINGTON 4 5 58 84 (Nashua) NEW HAMPSHIRE 3 6 64 110 (Winchester) MASSACHUSETTS 2 7 64 101 (Fairbanks) ALASKA 2 7 85 95 (St. A) NEW YORK L 8 66 99

No foursome ever tried harder nor attended better to their physical condition than did Bill Reid, Bill Haight, Don Dunn and Junius Cooper. Remember, this was an endurance affair -- 10 ends Wednesday evening, 3 10-end matches on Thursday, 3 10-end matches on Friday, and 2 10-end matches on Saturday. Nor did any rink ever gain a greater esteem for good sportsmanship than ours. Not only did they never grouse over their defeats but there just wasn't any of that sort of thing in their hearts. Some rink had to be at the bottom of the totem pole and for the sake of the First U. S. National Championship and the game of curling no rink could fill that spot with better grace than our own. I was proud of them -- every inch of the way.

Had our rink been favored with the same fortunate circumstances as at the New York Playdowns -- it was not -- Reid et al could have finished in fifth or sixth place, such was the competition, Our one win was 18 - 4 over New Hampshire (Carl Hines is no slouch in Grand National Competition). We did have our moments. The very strong Wisconsin rink barely won against our lads. It was done with their Skip's last rock. Detroit with a better rink than was ever entered at the Stockton -- the only rink to defeat Minnesota -- trailed St. A a good part of the way in our contest with them. - 2 =

However, let's face it: This affair, without d,oubt, was the greatest aggre­ gation of curling skills in USA experience. Much of it was of the high power variety, beyond anything in perfection I have ever noted in G~and National or Eastern Canadian rinks.

Take, for instance, the winner, Minnesota. Ken Watson claimed that the Hibbing rink could play even-Steven with aqy rink Canada ~as to offer. The Skip, Harold Lauber, is a golf pro. His brother, Louis, is vice-skip. They have curled together for more than 20 years. The other two are about as exp~rienced and as skilled. These folks expect to make 85% of thei+ shot~. But, that's only the half of it. It's the shots they call for -- shots demanding a l-inch tolerance, shots, short of too many martinis, we wouldn 1 t think of playing. The Skip, half the time, lies on his belly to eye the rock and to connnand the sweeping. St. A has about the same chance of winning against this outfit as Ye Ed. has of beating Ben Hogan at golf. It's mathematically possible but the Law of Probability argues against such an 9utcome.

The thrill was to watch the Minnesota rink sweep. If the shot required it there were all four furiously beating the ice and in pe+fect rhythm. They had not less than 6 feet advantage per rock over St. A. A similar advantage was held,more or less, by all other rinks.

I like the comfortable, have-fun, take-it-easy curling we do at St. A. and, after Chicago, our kind is as far as my personal aspirations go, unless it's umpi~ing again-- that's fun, mingling with the experts without the necessity of being one. Nonetheless, I believe we should encourage skillful cuding among our members to the point where St. A will be a threat at future NY Playdowns and always a possible entry in the National Championship M~tches. This? however, will require serious and constant practice of a brand unknown to us.

The whole affair at Chicago was expertly man~ged and the sportsmanship was of the highest order. This is a splendid event done with superb showmanship and good taste and St. A should lend all encouragement for its continuance, even though we may not be in it again for some years to come.

My Glengarrie is off to Reid, Haight, Dunn and Cooper who made the first U.S. Matches and who proved themselves to be of sterling character, a kin~ of championship we can all honor. 1957 - 26

the thought of being alone is a sucker for those who offer collectivistic or political togetherness designs.

Took Ag to Parisee's.

April 6. As hoped, Republic Steel's check for $7,500 arrived.

Did several hours work on a short essay, "He Who Would Bear Witness."

Ag and I went to the Bill Reids' apartment in Bronxville, where a dozen couples of the curling ilk were gathered for cocktails and buffet supper. Very nice.

April 7. Met with Bob Hill and McCullough at St. A to organize a little luncheon next Saturday honoring our rink that played at Chicago. Afterward, Bob, Walter, Jeffi and I played nine holes of golf.

FEE's financial report for March appended, thus ending a not-very-good fiscal year .

April 8. Appended is a good newspaper photo of the sheets of ice at Chicago.

Phoned Jim Rogers about Gaylord's whereabouts and other matters.

Phoned Hutch about same.

Appended is a copy of my "He Who Would Bear Witness," to appear in 'L'he Freeman as an article.

April 9. Alberto phoned from Washington about sending our By-Laws, etc., to Dr. Eduardo Benegas, Buenos Aires.

Phoned Harold Quinton about New Orleans. Said he would phone George Dinwiddie.

John Rettaliata, in New York, phoned saying he would be at Board Meeting.

Appended is my reply to a labor union leader. It is a bit amazing that he should raise the question presumably with a number of well-known labor union critics. Also, gratifying.

April 10. Hutch sent a record of his talk with Bob Gaylord. Bob, in short, said "Yes."

To 30 Church Street, New York, to lunch with Harold Turner, Executive V. P. of American Gas & Electric Company.

Phoned Bill Dykes, Canton, Ohio, about his essay for June.

Ed Ronk from Springfield, Mass., here for visit. ",

monopo~ of' force. This force is to be employed to inhibit all violence, all fraud, Gl.l misrepresentation, all predatory practices. All of us are to be left tree to act creatively as we please. There isn't, theoreticaJ.l¥, any specieJ. privUege at all.

However, labor uniOJSS have been a.el,egated powef ·over others by govermilent; not the power to iDhibit destructive action, but the power to forcibly c:ih"eat and eon.trol creative action: Where one sb&ll wo:rk, what he can and carmot a.O, how long he shall labor, what wage he sball receive, what organiZation he shall join, how much his du.es shall be and so on. This power is iDinense and the C&poUes in our soc1et7 ~t resist ma.k:J ng a bid for it.

The tact that there are unions w1 th 1:1.0 power-over-others t"ault does not meaa that they will not sutter along wtth the wr~doers. • f. • ~ F' "'.

The solutton1 as I see it, is tor a movement within the unions themselves to shed every iota of special privilege they possess 1 and to join w1 th other good citizeklS in abolishixla special privilettes for everybody else.

AuthQri~ unions, like authorita.rian governments or authoritarian ' atqthing el.se 1 attract bad n~en.

1957 - 27

April 11. Phoned Roger Milliken at Spartansburg, South Carolina, to see if he could help me in Atlanta. Says he has few acquaintances there.

Len phoned from L.A. about N.O. and to assure Ag that the swimming pool was now safer than the bathtub.

April 12. Phoned George Clark, President Pioneer Bank, Chattanooga, about fixing something in Atlanta. George returned call. Maybe he has some­ thing brewing.

Hughston phoned about Mr. Gilmour from Australia.

Began a short treatise on "The Right To Quit."

April 13. Golfed 18 holes with Ed Spencer, Charles Gerle and Dick Bartlett. Had an 86 and won $1.50.

I M.C.'d a luncheon in tribute to our Chicago Rink. About 30 present, in­ cluding representatives from Ardsley, Mahopac and N. Y. Caledonian. Pleasant.

Ag and I to Parise's for dinner.

April 14. Golfed with Carl Oman, Jack Bain and Chet. Very windy. Shot 90.

April 15. Spencer Heath sends me a critique of his on an article in the Harvard Business Review. Several points to remember:

"Monopoly in any field is not a matter of size, but of others being shut out."

"The System of free enterprise, the golden rule kingdom on earth • • • "

"'Values' of the spirit are not diminished in their giving but multiplied to the giver in such measure as he gives."

FEE's good friend, Charles Roberts, here for visit and luncheon.

Theodore 0. Jenney phoned from Columbus, Ohio, about reprinting our material for Foreman's Club.

Phoned Ted Herz, Washington, D.C., and set myself up for luncheon with him and Harry Bodman for April 29.

Met J. w. Clise on 8:40P.M. train and we talked until after ten - J.W. sleeping in my office bedroom. 1957 - 28

April 16. J. w. with Ag and me for breakfast. Said a word or two, expressing my pleasure, to 17 members of the junior staff assembled in Library for first of a weekly 1-hour economics class by Tom Shelly.

Appended is a copy of my NOTES.

Drove to New York, taking Clise along. I lunched with Larry Fertig at Uptown Club •

Spent half an hour with Charles Hickox of Barker Welfare Foundation, hoping to get a renewal of their $1,500 donation. Maybe.

April 17. Began "Making The Case For Private Property," the speech E.E.I. insists be in manuscript form for their distribution.

Johnny Flynn here about St. A.- Ardsley inter-club golf matches. Asked me to serve as Chairman.

Following dinner, took Ag to Dr. Champion -- back trouble.

April 18. Virginia Electric & Power sends $1,000.

Phoned J. Howard, saying Ag could not be with me.

Hughston phoned about Wade Fetzer as a possible FEE Trustee, about an article on the Post Office, about a Paul Stark in Missouri, and other items, including . Andre ' s progress •

April 19. Worked at FEE until noon. Drove to Howard Pew's home in Ardmore, Pa., arriving at 3:45 P.M. We philosophized and talked of FEE matters until 10:30, time out for dinner with Helen. Had excellent shad and roe. I learned that to be really gourmetish you should buy two fish, a roe shad and a buck shad, eating only the roe from the one, the buck for the fish.

April 20. Up at 7:30, breakfast with Helen and Howard and to Merion Golf Club. Horace Hay something joined us in 18 holes on the West Course. I had some excellent shots but on balance miserable. We lunched at Club and I was with Ag at 5:00P.M.

Hutch phoned late about Father Keller going on our Board. Will take up with Nominating Committee.

April 21. Golfed with Chet Comstock, Doc Oman and Do~ Adi. Played badly but won a buck.

When people turn over to others the responsibility for their own welfare, they take flight from one of life's highest purposes -- their own development, emergence, evolution, the realization of their own potentials. When they turn this responsibility over to the agents of organized force - government - they 1957 - 29

relinquish it to persons who care not one whit about their welfare) who are interested in "welfare" only as a means to political preferment. There is no transfer of responsibility without a corresponding transfer of authority. A naive people must eventually become a slave people.

April 22. Capital Finance sends order for .345)000 Clippings) "The Risk Within."

Kohler sends $500 which I thought we had lost. I Sam drove Ag and me to Newark for CAL's #75) 5:45P.M. non-stop to Atlanta. Routine. To Dinkler-Plaza Hotel.

April 23. Spent one and three-quarter hours with Harllee Branch, President of the Southern Company, a sound libertarian. Succeeded, it seemed, in laying an acquaintanceship for progress in the utility field and in Atlanta. Says he would like to arrange a dinner for me here. We will see each other at Chicago meeting of E.E.I.

Howard Pew wanted me to see Richard Courts of Courts & Company. Richard in New York, so had an hour with his brother Malon, a splendid person and deeply interested in anti-socialistic effort. Smart~

Lunched at Capital City Club with John 0. Chiles, the top real estate operator in these parts) meeting suggested by McHugh. John 0., as he is called, is a dynamo) a friend of Ike - although able to see his faults - friend of Bob Jones, Woodruff of Cocoa Cola and many others. I thought we got along in good shape.

At suggestion of George Clark, called on Mills Lane, Jr., President Citizens and Southern National Bank, largest in Georgia. "Anyone who's a friend of George Clark is a friend of mine~" Important in Y.P.O. circles. Certainly has libertarian inclinations.

Had three-quarters of an hour with W. A. Parker, President of Beck & Gregg Hardware Company. Parker has a big wholesale business, is wealthy, reputedly "tight," very quiet, troubled about his own capacity to argue our case better. A worthwhile friend of FEE to have.

Ag and I dined at C.C.C. and then to airport for CAL's #75, 9:25 P.M. for New Orleans. Routine. To St. Charles Hotel, and tired.

April 24. Lunched at St. Charles with George Schneider and spent some hours finishing my E.E.I. speech.

In response to a telegram I phoned Howard Kirschner in New York to say that I could not prepare written copy of my speech to his group next week.

Called on Charlie Dunbar. He is all for FEE but is getting old and is not well) so he can be of little more than moral help. 1957 - 30

Ag and I called on Harry Latter of Latter and Blum, 919 Gravier, a friend of McHugh'. Latter is a dynamic, very wealthy, civic-minded and prominent Jew. He builds half the town, so to speak. Was voted "Citizen of the Year." Raised the money in Louisiana for Ike. I am certain he is no libertarian. He was most gracious to us.

Ag and I went to airport and met Marty and Len arrlVlng from LAX. After they checked in at N.O. 's Grand Central Station, the Roosevelt Hotel, the four of us went to Corrine Dunbar's for a creole dinner. We knocked it off around midnight - a happy evening.

April 25. \ Never have I seen so many people so busy building their skyscrapers higher and higher, too busy to examine their foundations. History, I suspect, will record them as not good builders.

Lunched at Boston Club with A. Q. Petersen of Wesson Oil & Snowdrift. Mr. Pete, looking 60, is :riow 70 and probably will be of little help to FEE. Too many competing interests. He sides to our philosophy and is very nice to me personally.

A brief chat at Boston Club with Lamar Fleming. He appears to be much more taken with LER, Jr., than with FEE.

Had 45 minutes with George Dinwiddie, President New Orleans Public Service Company. He's young, a good thinker, but "too busy" to spend much time at it. I think the interview bad value for the future.

Ag, Marty, Len and I went to Harry Latter's plush apartment in the Roosevelt for cocktails. Jimmy Durante carne in for a few minutes. Latter is, it seems, a complete egocentric and wholly exhibitionistic. He couldn't possibly become interested in our work. The four of us went to a huge cotton picker's cocktail party (Mr. Creekmore) and thence to Brennan's for dinner, a moderately good place. To The Four Seasons for coffee and desert - another happy evening.

April 26. Len carne to our room for breakfast. We then went to the Roosevelt for meeting of Cotton Shipper's Association. The President, Felder, made a good free enterprise speech. Ezra Taft Benson disappointed me with his double talk. Some of his speech was to please his audience, other parts to please those who favor controls. In any event, the gent surely believes that government bears the final responsibility for the citizens' well-being.

Ag, Len and I lunched at Gallatoirres, by all odds the best place in New Orleans, and among the best in the U.S.A.; Marty having gone on a tour of the cotton-picking gals, we bid Len adieu and to the airport for CAL's #74, 3:15 P.M. for La Guardia, scheduled stop at Atlanta. Routine. JB & Vicky to meet us. Home at 10:00 P.M.

April 27. Opening Day at St. A. Played with Doc Oman. Ernie Somebody and Ed O'Neil along. Beautiful day. Had an 83.

Vicky, JB & Pud for dinner with Ag and me. 1957 - 31

April 28. Refrained from golf, catching up on my work at FEE. Began writing a piece "How To Deliver Mail, 11 and completed initial draft by midnight.

April 29. To LaGuardia for AA's #401, 9:30A.M. for Washington. ·An hour late in getting off, otherwise routine. Directly to Statler Hotel and then to Metropolitan Club where I lunched with Ted Herz, Harry Bodman and Harvey Campbell. We kept on talking libertarian ideas and problems until five o ~ clock.

Taxied to home of Bill Press in Georgetown. He, Mary and I back to Statler for big dinner of U.S.C. of C. Annual Meeting. I met many old friends but decided to forego the hocus-pocus and stay over-night - so to airport for · AA's #406, 9:05P.M. for LaGuardia. Routine. Home to me Ag at 11:15 P.M.

April 30. Bud Peterson, Dean Stanford Graduate School of Business, in New York, phoned. Wants my help on getting some lecturers for their session July 22-23-24 on "Economic Statesmanship in Business Management. 11

Phoned Ben Moreell, but he simply cannot take on assignment.

Talked to Bud late in evening and give him several suggestions.

May l. To Engineer's Club for luncheon with Ed Vennard, Executive Vice President of E.E.I. Ed has proclivities toward 11 selling the masses 11 but, on balance, he is a great our-sider. Talked about my forthcoming E.E.I. speech.

May 2. To Great Northern Hotel in New York to make final address to Annual Meeting of Board, Christian Economics Foundation. About 45 present. Helen and Howard Pew on hand and both had praise for speech. Seemed to be well received by others, also.

Appended is a copy of my 11 How To Deliver Mail. 11

To St. A. at 4:00 P.M. with Ag in a walk-around. On the lOth hit my longest drive ever. Had 2 birdies and posted an 83.

Ag and I to Parisee's for dinner.

May 3. A quote from the Bible, consistent with theories I have adopted without knowing of it: "And I, if I be lifted up, will draw all men unto me. 11

Alberto Gainza Paz, Publisher of La Prensa, here for luncheon. A most engaging person and we all agree he is brilliant.

Appended is copy of my E. E. I. address.

May 4. Took JB to St. A. and we played with Harry Hahn and Gillespie. I had an 85.
