self to see things, forced myself
to admit things. Gradually, I
had to confess that it was
true. Other people did have
troubles-troubles quite as bad
as mine.
And those troubles kept hap
pening. Their relations went
on being pesty, just as mine did.
Their business ventures failed,
lust as mine did. Yet-there
was harmony in their lives.
They we're quiet and confident.
They were not whirling in dizzy
circles. as I was.
Then, what was the answer?
Did they have some secret
which I didn't possess; or were
they simply more callous, less
sensitive? No; I had to admit
they weren't. They were just
as capable of suffering as I
was. Then it must be some
power in them!
The Absent Power
That was it. They did have
a power in them which I didn't
have. They didn't have a power
to command circumstances. any
more than I did; BUT THEY
COULD COMMAND THEM
SELVES! THEY COULD COM
MAND THEIR OWN REAC,
TIONS TO CIRCUMSTANCES!
That was the trick! Those
people didn't put their outside
lives in order, BUT THEY PUT
THEIR INSIDE LIVES IN OR

The same irritating things
happened to them which hap
pened to everyone else-BUT
THEY DID NOT TAKE THEM
IN THE SAME WAY. THEY
DID NOT LET FEAR AND
ANGER AND HATE AND
VILENESS GET BENEATH
THEIR SKINS.
Of course, they weren't per
fecv. They had their bad mo-
ments, too. But they were on
the right track. They had
found that they were wasting
time and energy when they
tried to put the world in
order: BUT THEY GOT
SOMEWHERE. WHEN THEY
PUT THEM SELVES IN
ORDER.
They had found that the
WORLD IS WHAT YOU

So that was the secret of

Puts Sympathy
Into Action

He knows that starvation
in a land Of plenty calls for
some serious governmental
readjuStments. He knows
these readjustments are not
destructive but preservative
Of our institutions.
There are many men in
public life who can, and do,
sympathize with the plight
Of the masses. They wax
eloquent on it, but eloquence
is not a pay check or a loaf
of bread. Wagner differs
from most Of these in that
he translates his sympathy
into action.
He denounces no 6ne-the
only thing the demagogue
can do.
He seeks to tear no class
or element down-he wishes
merely to build.
No man in public life
leans more on the ripe ex-
perlcnce of men of large
affairs and on the eco
nomistS.
There is not an economist
OF consequence between the
seas who has not interested
himself in Wagner's reform
measures and formed an ad-
mlration for his spirit and
purpose.
We have reached crisis
in our affairs in which we
need and must have in ma
tlonal public life more men
with the social sense, the
human sympathy, the con-
Structlve instinct of Bob
Wagner. Our problems are
more important than parties
and are too deep for old
fashioned politics.
We require the statesman
ship of the economist, for
the preservation of our in
stitutions and our whole
scheme of things lies in the
application of sound eco
nomics and a social sense
that has a heart beat.
And Wagner is the real
progressive; he is the sound
conservative.
The Washington times., 1932-08-13
For Unemployment
Insurance

He stands for some safe
plan of unemployment insur-
ance, and foresaw its need
long before other men in
public life. Even now this
is pronounced "radical'
and impossible by people
still thinking in terms of an
other generation.
And it is just here that
we can see the value Of
Wagner in public life. He
is one of the few who are
not clinging to the old for
mula Of dead day, the old
traditions society has swept
by. He is one of the few in
public life who seem to real
ize that something has hap
pened which threatens our
institutions if not our social
system, and to know that un'
less something is done better
to safeguard the human
rights Of the great mass Of
people we are going TO be
broken on the rocks.
He knows that no system
can justify or preserve itself
which permits millions Of
breadwinners to be thrown
into the street and denied
their right to work. Anyone
who does not know that
much does not know enough
to govern.

Neither Flamboyant
Nor Humble

Never, we believe. has any
one won the confidence. re-
spect and admiration Of his
colleagues in the Senate
quicker than Wagner. He
was not flamboyant; he was
not humble; he was merely
conscientious and he took his
duties seriously. He settled
down from November, 1927,
until December, 1927, TO the
most intensive and absorbing
study of the outstanding
problems of the nation. He
did it Systematically and
thoroughly. He summoned
economists, financiers for
facts.
It is easy to talk but more
difficult to say something;
and almost instantly Wag-
ner got the reputation of a
man who does not talk with
out saying something worth
thinking over. He has not
been merely a critic; he has
submitted more practical,
constructive legislation in
one term than a good por-
tion of his associates will in
four.

Aware of False
Prosperity

At a. time when it was
thought we were reeking
with prosperity because
stock not paying dividends
was soaring to grOtesque
heights, and men, buying
and selling in the market,
were making money. he knew
that this prosperity" did
not rest upon the solid rock
of reality and sooner or
later would tumble like a
house Of cards. He saw the
crash long before it came.
And thinking in terms. Of
men, women and children,
he thought in terms Of en-
ployment as we'll as profit.
1t was then he sponsored
measures making for the bet
ter stabilization of employ
ment and planned for pub
lie works to take up the
slack when private indus
try would inevitably sag.
These measures were not
written out of his emotions,
his sympathy for the masses,
but out of his head-and
out Of the heads of ex-
pertS whom he consulted.
They were. progressive and
Sare measures.
But two administrations
dominated by Undetermined
craftsmanship offered a
Gibraltar-like resistance.
Thus the storm broke and
beat upon the house that
had not been buttressed to
withstand it.
