The Rotary Balita no. 640 (February 16, 1950).

Do you love your country and gladly swear allegiance to its laws and ideals? Are you proud of its institutions, and practices; or are you vexed by its interference in your private affairs? An article in the December, 1949, Readers' Digest tells about the vexatious interference of numerous government agencies in the private affairs of a law-abiding U.S. manufacturer. The article contains no anarchistic or communistic sentiments, but sounds a warning which should be heeded by all loyal citizens in democratic countries in order to prevent unnecessary encroachments on constitutional guarantees of personal freedom. It is highly important that we have a government BY the people and FOR the people, but with the least possible government OF the people. Too much of the latter creates discontent. Controls and restrictions are necessary for our public welfare, but if they should be arbitrarily imposed with needless delays and red tape, they may perhaps merely provide arguments for communistic agitators. At this very moment we are highly vulnerable.
