University, Washington, D.C., comments on this passage, "For Pound,
the Constitution implies an economic wisdom ancient and modern,
found in Bacon whom he quotes, 'Money is like muck, no good

'Rake in wealth and you scatter the people. Divide the wealth and the
people will father to you.'"—"The Strange Case of Ezra Pound,"
The New Times, Melbourne, August 26, 1955.
