Nothing is lower or more disgusting than sanderer.

Nothing is so despicable lying gosslp-dehoerately

They embarked a campaign of anonymous telephone

can't-do anything for people
like that"
Is Not Cruel
She does not mean to be
either cruel or stupid when she
says that. She honestly be-
l1eves that people like that"
are an alien breed of human,
utterly remote from herself or
her life.
THAT THESE PEOPLE ARE
LIKE HER IN EVERY HU-
MAN ESSENTIAL.
They do not live in filth be-
cause they like filth; or noise,
or disorder. They live that
way because they cannot help
themselves. And all the while
they are trying desperately to
help themselves. They are
struggling, as she would strug-
gle if she we're there, to escape
from that ugliness; and they
are feeling every emotion of
resentment. despair, and
frantic desire which she would
feel.
Like 30 Cents
AS matter Of fact, If she
were there she might not make
half as good a showing as they
are making. For though my
friend is very charming, she
has few resources in herself,
She is actually a stupid and
helpless human being, who
couldn't maintain her present
status for a day if her hus-
band didn't pay her bills.
And this humiliating fact ap-
plies to most of us who think
we're the berries. If we were
all stripped of our prestige, and
possessions and dumped, along
with the rest of the human
race, on a desert island to fend
for ourselves. MOST OF THE
MASSES WOULD MAKE
MOST OF THE CLASSES
LOOK LIKE 30 CENTS.
AND THE MASSES KNOW
1T.
That ragged, listless mother
sitting on the curbstone knows
it-knows the skill that lies in
her hands and the love and
loyalty that lies in her heart.
That bent, discouraged, filthy
husband of hers knows it
knows that, when it comes to
real work, he's a better man
than the chap in the limousine.
That half starved son of theirs,
struggling frantically for the
education which the rich boy
gets gratis, knows that he and
his kind have created most of
the beauty and comfort which
the rich boy enjoys.
Why is there a muttering at
the heart of America today?
That is why.

millions out of work have
their purchasing power re-
stored through work.
The mere rise in stocks is
not going to put them to

added to the pay roll of the

the decrease in business is
reflected in a rise in stocks.

evenings she drives down to

with people squatting on door

1t is not happy or a pleas

The Washington times., 1932-08-02

THE introduction OF the
l. usual bunk which has al
ways been fed the ground
1ings in campaigns has come
much earlier than usual this
year-because it will require
much propaganda and mis-
representation of conditions
to persuade the people out
of jobs, out of business, out
of money, that all is we'll.
The market-minded states
men of the Administration,
lowering as they have for
, eleven years over the ticker
tape and utterly oblivious to
the loss of purchasing power
in at least forty million
people, and to the loss Of
foreign markets, are much
"encOuraged.
Some stocks are "rising"
and because stock is rising
in the case of steel, the
groundlings will be asked
to believe that the steel busi-
ness is on the upward grade.
The fact that its earnings in
the last six months are lower
than ever before in history
is not supposed to enter into
, the case at all.
Unless there is an increase
in the steel trade, and there
is not, the rise in steel stock
will not put a single man
back to work in the steel
mills.
But the groundlings are
not supposed to think. If
| they did they might remem-
Der the way the market was
manipulated in the days of
/ 1923 and 1929 until stocks
rose beyond the imagination
of the romanticist.
And they might recall
how in those days of market
manipulation and grotesque
prices the highest function
aries of the Hoover Admins
tration, knowing there was
no relation between the price
of stock and the earning
value of the stock, issued
formal statements to the
American people assuring
them that the market ac-
tually reflected values.

AL OAAS = SAASANS
And the personal press
representative of Mr..
Hoover, who sits in on all his
political conferences, writes
glowingly this week that the
"road is clear to pros
perity."
How like the DR.. Klein
statements and the Hoover
and Mellon statements issued
with tiresome regularity all
through 1929, 1880, and until
every one began to laugh
audibly!
Prosperity again is "just
around the corner. " Maybe
after all these years it may
be persuaded to make the
turn.
But "prosperity is around
the corner again because
former Senator Pomerene, a
Democrat, has been made the
head of the Reconstruction
Finance Corporation. 1t is
strange position for the Ad-
ministration to assume that
the substitution of a Demo-
crat for a Republican as head
of the corporation will create
confidence. By indirection
this implies that there can be
no restoration of confidence
with a Republican at the
head.
The Washington times., 1932-08-02
Good Has Been Done,
But Not Enough

And the implication is a
rather unkind reflection, too,
on Mr.. Dawes, who was the
head until he recently re-
tired to get an $SO,OOO,oOO
loan from the Corporation.
Senator Pomerene is an
able man of strict integrity,
but every one understands
that politics dictated the ap-
pointment. Even so, this
does not mean that there
no longer will be a close
