said in Today industry as well as the people of the United States and the national administration seems to have come to the conclusion that the most effective way to prevent business depression and to curb cial discontent is to increase the purchasing power of the common In other words a very unfair dis- of wealth whereby tne minority has an abundance of wealth and the majority lacks a sufficiency of money with ducts of to a very grave situation The wheels of in- dustry stop turning The situation is unbearable to the people and in- dustry alike Against Communism The most ardent communist imaginable never attacked this cial injustice more strenuously than does Catholic social philosophy as expressed in the two encyclicals On the Condition of and On Re- constructing the Social Order But in this attack on existing evils the similarity between communism and Catholic social philosophy ceases Communism would have us dis- card the entire system of private productive ownership in favor of collectivism while Catholic social philosophy holds that the right of private productive ownership is a right conferred by the natural law on every person on this earth Such a right is necessary for proper in- dividual development It is sary for safeguarding the family from invasion by the state into its most sacred functions It is a re- for maintaining peace and orderly production In the without
