Cuius quidem muneris vices oeconomicus potentatus, qui liberum certamen nuper excepit, multo minus gerere potest, cum hic praeceps quaedam vis et potentia vehemens sit, quae ut salutaris hominibus evadat, frenari debet fortiter et regi sapienter; frenari autem et regi non potest a se ipso.
This function is one that the economic dictatorship which has recently displaced free competition can still less perform, since it is a headstrong power and a violent energy that, to benefit people, needs to be strongly curbed and wisely ruled. But it cannot curb and rule itself.

Altiora igitur et nobiliora exquirenda sunt, quibus hic potentatus severe integreque gubernetur: socialis nimirum iustitia et caritas socialis.
Loftier and nobler principles - social justice and social charity - must, therefore, be sought whereby this dictatorship may be governed firmly and fully.
