BY rendering assistance to the agri-
cultural sections the Congress kept
alive the buying power of over half
the nations population. This aid, al
though extended directly to agricul-
ture, was of vital Importance to bust
ness.
Although no act of Congress figured
in the process, nevertheless, the in
f1uences Of the Republican admins
tration, of which the Congress is a
part, gave such confidence to the
business world that within a year
from the time the Republican party
took control Of all branches Of the
Government prices of practically all
sound securities advanced materially.
The most outstanding example of this
is the increase of Is per cent. in the
value of SIS, 900, 0O0, 900 worth Of out
standing Liberty bonds.
AS another reflex of the influence Of
the Republican administration, inter.
est rates have been lowered from z
per cent. to Az within IL months, thus
releasing money at a reasonable rate
for the use of business interests.
No n has the temerity to deny that
business conditions today, compared
with a year ago, are not infinitely bet.
ter and that prospects are undoubted-
ly for further improvement. There is
no other explanation for this trans.
formation in the business world ex-
cept the IL months application of Re.
publican policies and the certain
knowledge throughout the business
world that the influences and policies
Of the Republican Party, which will
direct the affairs of the nation for the
next two years, r constructive in
1uences that make for accumulation
rather than waste, assist legitimate &C.
tivities, stand four-sQuared for the pro.
lection Of capital and labor and stand
equally firm against the fallacious
theories Of Communism and Social
ism.
In brief, the commercial optimism
with which the people of all classes in
the United States face the coming
year must be wholly attributed to the
fact that all branches of the Govern.
ment of the United States are now in
control of the Republican Party.

cent Of the employees OF the Navy de-
partment if they. the committees, would
give me complete authority to take one
half of the salaries Of the employees so
discharged and add 1t to the salaries Of
the other s. per cent of the employees
still left in the department. OF
course. however, under the present sys-
tenn congress would not think of giving
executive discretion Of this kind.
Congress, for various reasons, has so
tied the hands of the executive officers
of the government that they ave no dis
erection in the fundamental questions of
employment. . My own wonder 10
that, considering the existing circum-
stances. the employees of the govern
ment are as efficient as they actually are.
Congress legislates for every minute item
of employment. There is a lot
of work being done in other departments
which ought properly to be under the
Navy department, and in the same way
there is a lot of work done by the Navy
department which could perfectly prop
erly be transferred to other departments.
After seven years down here in al ex-
~ecutive position I cannot help the
conclusion that our governmental meth
DDS are cumbersome n wasteful. The
first improvement must come in what is,
after all. the source of governmental ac-
t~ivities-that is, the legislative branch. .
This must come from congress. We need
also a reclassification and redistribution
of the work of the executive depart
ments. This can only come if congress,
working in accord with itself and with
the executives, will discuss the whole
question simultaneously and not merely
piecemeal.
Well, there you are! A Republican
who has been in the legislative branch
of the government for seventeen years,
and a Democrat who has been in the
executive branch for seven years, both
telling the same story of how badly
the national business is managed.
The odd thing about it is that our
agents and representatives at Wash
ington who let this waste and inef-
iciency run on, year after year, pay
no penalty. We pay the piper to the
tune of millions and Enthusiastically
that much. And the condition will en-
dure until we make a real o a about
it. Congress increasingly shakes its
head over the situation and brings in
various proposals of reform, and says
how wrong it all is; but lacking a
lively, inflamed public pressure, moth
ing gets done.
