127. 1. The general good exists from the goods of use the individuals each perform; and the goods of use they each perform subsist from the general good.
They are termed goods of use because all the goods which are of love towards the neighbour, or of charity, are uses, and all uses are goods, and therefore are named in one term, goods of use. They are also called fruits of use.
