Is ac-- cumulation the end of civilization? Here again we run counter to natural law. Natural law says that hoard- ing wealth beyond our needs is criminal folly, and im- poses the heaviest of fines on miserly instincts. All the A BEEED OF BARREN METAL 71 progress made by man has been in the direction of hoarding less as compared with current consumption. All ini^Drovements in machinery, all improvements in methods of industry, have been in the direction of giv- ing man more to use and less to h...oard. And it is nec- essarily s6. The more we hoard the larger a percentage of our annual product must be devoted to the keeping up of the wealth already hoarded, and the less we will have to use. Under such conditions undue hoarding would lead us to such a point that nearly all our ener- gies would be spent in keeping up the wealth already gained, and while our store would be large, we should be unable to satisfy our current wants. Naturti rebukes hoarding in most unmistakable terms. Her fines are levied on every dollar's worth of wealth that is stored for future use.
