ROOSEVELT IS SCATTERING
PRECEDENTS ALMOST DAILY:
MOVES MORE AGGRESSIVELY
Further Advances in Re-
covery Drive Follow on
Heels Of Every Com
plant Reaching Him
By RAYMOND CLAPPER
United Press Staff Correspondent
CopYright, 1888. by u. P.

l0oS, ny W
WASHINGTON, Oct. 26. (UP)
In action that skaters precedents
almost daily. President Roosevelt
is turning into tangible form the
powers handed over to him whole
sale after March 4.
He has moved more aggressive
ly than ever in the last few days
as the popularity of his program
was threatened by incipient re-
bellion in the farm belt.
He has applied the new deal
in new form the prescription OF
jefferson or somebody, who said
that the cure for democracy's ills
was more democracy. If there is
complaint against the recovery
program. :.
Whether President Roosevelt
should be called a dictator or
something less Earring to Ameri-
can ears is purely academic
question. What has happened is
that in his inaugural address, Mr.,
Roosevelt marched up to the
Rubicon and announced he ex-
pected to cross it; then he dangl.
ed his toes in the water for
time, and now with the bold,
calm, confident smile which has
marked this precedent smashing
president, he is wading in.
Headlines yesterday reporting
current developments in Mr.,
Roosevelt's revolution suggest
the high spots Of the advance
There is no turning back. Even
the original brain trust now is ell
bowed aside for what is being
called in Washington the "ne~
professors. Most prominent OF
these is Prof. George F. Warner
of Cornell, whose money plan Is
understood to have formed the
basis for Mr.. Roosevelt's new
gold policy. 49,, I,
On price control, even Prof
Rex Tugwell, regarded as the
most brilliant and advanced or
the regular brain trust group
favors caution. Yet a majority
of industrial codes SO far approx:
ed involve price control, and
more and more the government
is taking over agricultural price
regulation. :.
This story in Washington is
too vast to be understood or ade-
ouately told hot off the wires.
History will have a hard enough
time telling it. All that can be
done now is to try to give the
"feel' of it, to suggest by a few
rough strokes. the general out
lines and the direction.
Fascism has had it easy com.
pared to the new deal. Mussolinl
worked in a small nation accus-
toned to a strong hand at the
top. Hitler has the emotions OF
a defeat-wracked nation behind
him. Mr.. Roosevelt is dealing
with a spoiled people, a nation
spoiled by the unreal prosperity
of the last decade, a nation still
welded to the individual freedom
of the frontier.
There are many indications
that, except in the circle around
Mr.. Roosevelt, the real meaning
of the new deal has not yet been
grasped. Actions of Mr.. Roose-
Welt since the first serious chal-
lenge appeared last week are suf-
ficient to convince Washington
that he has no thought of turn
ing back. He told the nation
Sunday night. 1--WE are on the
way"
But not on the way back to
1929.

WASHINGTON, Oct. &c. (UP)
The United States had favorable

DES MONIES, Ia, Oct. 20
(UP).-Opposition to the farm
strike called by the Farm Holiday
Association developed among mid
western farmers today as state
and federal officials prepared for
a conference to discuss agricul-
tural relief.
Eight hundred farmers from
Southwestern Iowa, led by a sher-
if. defied pickets stationed at the
Missouri river bridge near Platt5-
mouth, Neb., and escorted so live
stock trucks to market today.
Sheriff Demoss of Glenwood,
Neb., warned the pickets, who had
turned back all livestock ship
ments previously, that any at
tempt to interfere with the con-
voy would result in "serious con-
sequences"
The group of farmers expressed
confidence in the national admin
istration's ability to solve farm
problems if given time, and
charged that most of the farm
strike pickets were non-farmers
and transients.
Farm leaders, including Milo
Reno. president of the Farm Holt
day Association, endorsed the call
of Gov. Clyde L. Herring of Iowa
for a conference of representa-
tives of 10 midwestern states to
be held here October 80.

CITES PART OF LABOR
IN SUCCESS OF N. R. A.
IcGrady Tells Boston Audience
Industrial Leaders Also Have
Important Role.
BY the Associated Press.

ny Inc hSSOClhIeQ fTeSS,
BOSTON. December 29-The success
OF the N. R. A. Edward F. McGrady,
Assistant Secretary of Labor, said We'd
nesday night would depend largely
upon the ability Of the managers of in
dustry and the leaders Of labor to ac-
cept new responsibilities In putting into
effect honest self-government in indus
try and eliminating all the evils Of the
old system
Speaking at N. r. A progress meet
ing in historic Faneuil Hall.
McGrady, who also is assistant ad
ministrator Of the N. r. A., asserted
that the old system practiced the fright
to acquire and use property subject
to no qualification" and that as a re-
suit human welfare was neglected.
The results Of the N. R. A. in six
months, he said, included the placing
Of 100000 workers back in industry
He expressed the belief that the
dustrial democracy "in which there are
to be three partners-the Government,
labor and capital"
1T will succeed because the people
are determined that human welfare will
receive equal rights with profits and
dividends. 1t will succeed because
every one recognizes that there must
be a redistribution OF wealth in the
form Of adequate wages, so that we
can purchase back all Of the things
that we create This Is the only way
that industry can run continually and
profitably.'
The national recovery program was
praised by Edward A. Filene, chair
man Of the State Recovery Board and
prominent Boston Merchant. as q
realization" of the historic American
course of liberty which was developing
into an all-American movement for in
dustrial law and order.
