"jigger" isn't going to be so large under
repeal as 1t used to be before prohibi-

glassware makers, is the speakeasy's

Lawbreakers of the arid era were

whisky glasses, now engaged in in
creased production to meet growing
demand, were agreed today that the
one and one-and-a-hah ounce sizes
which the speakeasies used will be re-
tanned.
One explanation heard today was
that whisky will be more costly under
repeal than it used to be. Another
was that the potency of legal liquor
will be greater than that of the speak
easy's watered (sometimes) whiskies
and that repeal drinkers will find "a

sistible, once a man has published
his opinion, to say: That's my
story and I stick to it."
IN private intercourse any one who
l. sticks to his story regardless is
set down by his friends as slightly
batty. In public he. passes for a
very strong fellow.
The Roosevelt administration
has, it seems to me, been singularly
Skillful in not making itself the
prisoner of it's own pronounce
ments. Here and there it has
stumbled, as for example in the
promise that the NRA would put
I forget how many million men to
work by Labor day. in the threat
Of a boycott which the good sense
of the country so sensibly rejected
in the grimaceS at Henry Ford, in
the pledge to the farmers not
merely to help them but to give
them the exact quota of prosperity
which they had just before the
war. These have been slips.
They have been exceptions to the
rule. For in the main the President
has made it his practice not to paint
pictures and make promises, but to
contrive expedients and decide
practical issues.
In this habit of his mind he has
shown himself to be an amazingly
successful leader in period of
crisis. He has known better than
to imagine that a great nation of
free men could be indoctrinated
with any consistent set of princi-
Piles. So, like the wisest of the Eng
disappearing statesmen, he has
preferred to find his political and
economic principles in the necessi-
ties of each particular situation,
limiting his output of high-sound-
ing generalizations to the indis-
putable truths of honor, courtesy,
and the ordinary morals.
This step-by-step empiricism is
utterly ncomprehensible to men of
certain temperaments. They think
a statesman should have a complete
theory about the history of the hui
man race, a comprehensive program
about its future; in brief, that he
should forget he is mortal and
plant himself on the judgment seat.
The preference of the English
speaking peoples for crossing
bridges when you come to them,
and discovering the reason why you
have come when you are halfway
across, seems to them >in varying
degree confused, illogical, illiterate,
and even hypocritical.
BY its enemies it is described as
muddling, by its practitioners as
muddling through. But whatever it
is, the record of history goes to
show that it levies lighter tax of
blood and tears, of anguish and bit
terness, than the more perfected.
the more theoretically consistent
and more exalted systems of gov
erning men.
TT is not only among doctrinaries,
l. however, that Mr.. Roosevelt's
cautious avoidance of commitments
has aroused objections. At home
there is complaint that he has not
announced a monetary policy, that
he does not define the position of
labor under the codes, that he does
not make it known whether the
NRA is an emergency measure or
