CRIME on a nuge Scale-anO
one that has been taxed in
the past. Light wines and
beer would bring in an enor-
nous revenue-because of
which the taxes on individ-
uals and industry could be
enormously reduced.
Hoover Is Opposed
To a Bond Issue
Mr.. Hoover is against
using any Federal money to
prevent the starvation Of
women and children.
He is likewise opposed to
a bond issue to be paid in
the future to put a great
army of men to work.
And he still imagines that
if he can pump Federal
money into the Golfers
of private business that
will increase the purchasing
power of the thirty millions
who have no purchasing
power today.
AS far as unemployment
is concerned he makes a vir-
tue of taking his stand
against any experiments
and of clinging to the ira
ditional ideas and methods.
But no President in
American history has ever
dreamed Of going into the
field of experimentation and
in departing fr ON old
theories to the extent of Mr..
Hoover.
When before has the Gov
ernment loaned two billions
from the Treasury to private
corporations, in the hope
that they will pay, as it has
done under Mr.. Hoover in
the case of banks and rail-
roads?
How shocking it would
have seemed ten years ago!
And yet we have done it
because the extraordinary
nature of the crisis makes
it worth trying.
And when the pressure Of
public opinion begins to
bear hard upon him for
something to relieve unem-
ployment, and restore pur-
chasing power and thus re-
vive business, he emerges
with a plan to pump more
millions Of the public money
into private enterprise-in
the hope that it will be paid
back.
More has been done by
Mr.. Hoover to change our
whole governmental policy
in this regard than ever be-
fore in all the years of the
republic preceding his presi-
dency.
The Washington times., 1932-05-30

TUST now the American
81 people are not so much
concerned with reflections
or elections as in results.
Taxes are being piled on the
peoples backs until they
are breaking, because this
country refuses to tap the
productive source of reve-
nue. from which other ma
tions draw almost a third
Of the amount necessary to
operate their governments.
These taxes in America are
a burden even to the small
taxpayers in days like these.
And the Government has
been testing its ingenuity in
finding something new to
tax.
And yet it does not think
Of taxing the most opulent
industry in America today,
an industry that finances
crime on a huge scale-and
one that has been taxed in
the past. Light wines and
beer would bring in an enor-
nous revenue-because Of
which the taxes on individ-
uals and industry could be
enormously reduced.

and actions postponed necessary re.
adjustments. This prolonged and
deepened the depression"
Roosevelt asserted the Hoover pol.
icy us wide departure from the Re-
publican tradition as voiced by Presi-
dent Harding's slogan Of less govern
ment in business.
1.-THE coincidence of the two policies
is as dangerous a mixture as fire and
powder. This is the tragic folly of
the past four years."
Before the election Of Hoover, his
rival for white house residency, he
said " terrible race began between
the rising tide Of bubble fortune in
the stock market and the rising tide
of unemployment"
Nevertheless we were. said Mr..
Hoover, ION the verge of the greatest
commercial expansion in history
High wages would create new con-
Stunning power, accelerated mass pro-
duction would lower costs. Buy
more! Owe more! Spend more!
This was the program.
1T was the hey-day of promoters,
sloganeers, mushroom milliona1res,
opportunists, adventures of all kinds"
In this mad whirl, Roosevelt said,
Hoover's campaign was launched.
Perhaps" he added, referring to
President Coolidge, "foreseeing 1t,
shrewd man from New England while
in the cool detachment of the Dakota
hills, typed narrow slip OF paper I
do not choose to run"
He went on to recite that SURPRISES
were to be marketed abroad and buy
ing nations were to be financed by
loans from the United States. The
Democratic nominee said Hoover dis
missed the economic objection to
higher tariffs retarding foreign trade
with the assertion, this theory was
sound enough in the old days Of bar
ter" but not today, and so listening to
Republican leaders, the Smoot-Haw-
ley tariff bill was passed.
Found Brakes Locked
"The president hesitated," Roose-
welt told his audience, because he
must have seen the awful nature OF
the choice. But his courage failed.
Grundyism had its way and American
industry, accelerated to pace never
before known, suddenly found the
brakes locked on a slippery road"
And after the crash of October,
1929 came, what Roosevelt said he be-
lieved was the real crime of the Re-
publican administration"
"They had the statistics at hand but
the administration did not tell the
truth"
He quoted from Hoover's remarks
during 1929 and 1880 to support his
contention that the administration
was not truthful about the depression.
Finally on Dec. 2, 1880 it was an
nounced I'VE have already weathered
the worst of the storm" "And then"
added Roosevelt, "the depression
steadily deepened. All was silence"
When facts could no longer be ig-
nored and IAN excuse must be found"
he said, washington discovered that
the depression came from abroad-an
excuse which the president still MAIN

 The Alaska Juneau will continue its mining operations here in the future just as in the past, with no policy or other changes, the Chamber of Commerce was assured today by P. R. Bradley. Consulting Engineer of the company, who is here making his annual visit of inspection
 We will go right ahead as in the past" he declared. "The Alaska Juneau does not contemplate any change in its wage scales" he added.
 No Details of Development
 This was the extent of MT. Bradley's reference to the Alaska Juneau operations. He declared 1t was interesting every year to him to note the steady march of inn provements in the town. Better ments, he added, were more easily discernible here, where everything can be observed, than in other communities which might be spend- ing larger sums than is done To- cally.
 It is relief to him, he declared, to find no discussion of depression in Juneau. "It is possible you do not know there is any depression, and, if that is true, you are indeed fortunately situated" Alaska, he added, Z is bound to feel, at least indirectly, some of the effects of present economic conditions. Fewer tourists are making the Alaska voyage this year and that means a loss of revenue. Fewer canneries are operating which results in less money coming here from outside sources.
 Alaskans Not Exporting
 Despite these circumstances, he had found no long dissertations on the depression, and Alaskans are not undertaking to qualify as ex- perts on its causes and cure. In the States almost every man is now an expert and each is ready to expcund his theories.
 Lower costs of raw material and labor in the States have not reached the Alaska Juneau's min ing costs, he said The main items of expense, such as the purchase of powder, steel balls and rubber belting, remain unchanged as the unit costs have not been lowered.
 At the conclusion of MT Brad ley's short talk, President Allen Shattuck declared that while Ju- neau's residents might take the Alaska Juneau's operations as a matter of course, they realized that

Tammany May Draft Al for Governor, Fifth Time,

ALBANY, N. Y, July 7.-Gov Franklin D. Roosevelt is happy and confident he will be elected Presi- dent next November.
 The big worry with Gov. Roose- welt has been whether Al Smith would come over to the Demo- cratic camp or head third party.
 Smiths announcement yesterday that he will support the Demo- cratic Party, brought a huge smile to Roosevelt's face.
 Jouett Shouse, Smiths campaign manager of preconvention days, has also pledged support to the Demo- cratic ticket.
 Meanwhile there is much talk of Tammany drafting Smith for a fifth term as New York Governor.
