John T. Flynn

John T. Flynn

The NRA provided that in America each industry should be organized into a federally supervised trade association. It was not called a corporative. It was called a Code Authority.
John T. Flynn

John T. Flynn

The real peril of war lies not in military defeat. It lies in war itself, whether we win or lose.
John T. Flynn

These code authorities could regulate production, quantities, qualities, prices, distribution methods, etc., under the supervision of the NRA. This was fascism.
John T. Flynn

John T. Flynn

John T. Flynn
