The country is being transformed by enthusiasts
shouting a slogan that is likely to prove particularly
stirring in these days of city unemployment and
spring It is that seductive old slogan back to the
and!'
Americans love slogans. But they should be par
ticularly cautious about adopting this all-too-simpe
remedy for the complicated problem Of unemploy-
ment
An adventure in rustic life is likely to prove tragic
to family fresh from the city streets little farm
productive enough to support a family would prove
an ideal answer to a man without job. But he
should have some capital and experience and he must
have infinite courage and patience.
Harm will come from such propaganda as is being
put out by weekly magazine, painting in glowing
coors the possibilities Of settling the army of unem-
poyed on the 18OOoOOOO acres of unsettled public
DOMAIN.
These lands. minus irrigation. are good only for
stock, and stock requires plenty Of money The GAO
allowed settler under the homestead acts is
too small for grazing. Reclamation farms require
$1,000 in capital and two years experience.
The national advisory and legislative committee on
land use says:
There is need for a public policy in guiding and
directing this movement and preventing exploitation
Wisely the committee suggests that better oppor-
tunities lie in providing unemployed with garden
plots near the cities. where they can augment wages

Too | ate to Mend

IF Herbert Hoover had switched
on the enforcement problem at
the time the Wickersham report
came into his hands. would have
regarded his conduct as. proper and
intelligent. But if he offers himself
as last-minute convert to the
cause on the eve Of the next na-
tional election. I hope that vets VIII
give him no greater volume OF huz-
zahs than the drys.
I can not see that the case against
prohibition is appreciably stronger
now than it was in 1928. I mean
from the standpoint Of logic. OF
course. it is palpable that the tide
has turned and that repeal now is
the popular side.
And I hope, but do not believe
that the winners will behave them
selves with a greater respect for fact
than was the custom waen the Puri-
tans were in the saddle
There are some arguments for
prohibition even now. They are not
sufficient to my way Of thinking,
but. at least, a case can be made.
Unfortunately, the advocates OF
the amendment never used their
best reasons, but INDUCED in fan
tasy of the most mendacious sort.
Even up to the moment of going
to press, certain diehards are fond
Of advancing the not particularly
persuasive plea that prohibition has
brought us a bountiful prosperity
They are still babbling about saw
The Indianapolis times., 1932-05-25

Al Smiths reply to the Presidents attack on gen.
eral public works bond issue and building program
for unemployment relief helps to clear the air. He
shows the falacy Of some Of the Presidents argu-
ments, without - in judgment - destroying
Hoovers main contention, that self-lquidating
projects are best for such program
AS we said at the time. the Hoover argument
against bcnd issue as such is a contradiction be-
cause his own plan rests on large scale credits ad-
vanced by the Reconstruction Finance Corporation
which must be raised by government borrowing of
some kind Smith states this clearly.
Smiths point that Jobs Of any kind are better
than charity, also is well taken.
But he is not convincing when he tries to prove
that there Is real difference between productive
and nonproducve public works Certainly there have
been plenty OF nonproductive federal construction
projects in the past such as white-elephan buildings
and pork-barrel dredging which soak the taxpayer
and serve no legitimate purpose.
There is no excuse to waste the taxpayers money
in such manner when plenty of useful projects are
awaiting action.
Hoover is wise in trying to hold the bulk of pub
lie works now to the income producing type. But
that should not exclude useful and needed federal
public works of the other type which already have
been studied and authorized by congress and the
President. Unfortunately the Presidents plan was
too rigid here.
Obviously the Democratic steering committee plan,
in providing for some Of this useful but nonncome
producing type Of public works, along with much
larger amount Of the self-lquidating kind, has hit
upon practical compromise between the Smith and
Hoover programs.
Neither side should be stf-necked; there must
be give and take in the interest Of getting quick
ton. Doubtless this was in Smiths mind wnen ne
said
I would give him Cthe President the power in the
broades possible terms and the responsibility which
should go with it, If don't tackle this problem now
in a big way, shall be driven to much more
drastic measures few months from now, when the
millions of unemployed will not be so patient with
quibbling over words"
The compromise plan introduced by the Demo-
Gratis which meets the President far more than half
way, should be made law at once.
The unemployed are waiting.
The Indianapolis times., 1932-05-25
What Has Been Going On2

TINE country has been fed state
Il ments and conferences when it
had every right to expect effective
action, and now it calmly is in
formed that the government must
not use its credit for public work,
because the government is not ready
to proceed and couldn't get ready in
time.
Just what has the government
been doing with all its engineers,
architects and craftsmen since busi--
ness collapsed, or has the govern
ment gone on the theory that the
collapse was not very serious and
would not last very long.
Beyond that, has the government
convinced itself that states, cities
and towns were unable, or unpre-
pared, to provide work If it made
funds available. Average people
may be entirely wrong, but they
have the suspicion that the gov
ernment is not doing all 1t could to
straighten things out; that to a
certain extent, it has been stalling,
in hope that some favorable break
would spare it the necessity of do
ing much; that it has taken long
chances with Lady Luck and lost;
that it has given far more thought
to such problems as international
disarmament than it has to domes-
tic distress, and that the net re-
suit is a tragic failure.
