| 30. To Arvid
L. Frank (June 4, 1949)
Responding to yours of the 1st in reply to my letter to Mr. Calder.
I never had any doubt that you have on call many distinguished
monetary authorities, but would it ever occur to you to ask any
of them to submit a plan of action completely divorced from political
action, or would any of them voluntarily offer such a plan, as
I have done? The answer to both questions is no. So the NAM goes
blithely on imagining it is a defender of the private enterprise
system, while at the same time playing right into the hands of
the socialists.
I enclose my recent pamphlet The New Approach to Freedom
which I dare you to read, even though I should be intimidated
by your rebuke for presuming to offer a suggestion.
