THE other day we quoted
l. from "Augur," an Eng
lish writer in the New York
Times, to the effect that if
"war debts must disappear"
for Europe, this country, for
which they will appear in
staggering amounts for any
one country, must be given
some assurance that "the
advantage conceded" by us
to our competitors must
carry security against ex-
ploitation." Here we have
it that the debtor nations
are to be given an advan-
tage.
The magnitude Of the ad-
vantage we had not sus-
pected until we found in a
dispatch from London that
the rumor that we would
wipe out the $4,000, 100000
England owes us for lump
sum payment of $2,225,00O
900 is a misconception. That
would only leave 1926, ,OOO,-
600 of the English debt for
us to pay.
But the dispatch explains
that what is really meant is
that for a lump sum of
1926, 100000 we are to wipe
out all the debts of Europe
and assume more than &c.
OOO,OOO,OOO ourselves.
And that would indeed be
giving quite an advantage to
the taxpayers of the debtor
nations and quite an advan-
tage to the industries Of
those nations in the strug-
gle for the world markets.

Smash Through

Red rape
Mr.. Smith was thinking
about certain difficulties we
have encountered in serving
the general welfare in the
matter of public building.
The Federal Government
has generally preferred,
throughout the depression,
to ignore its duty of serving
the general welfare in ref
erence to unemployment. 1t
has appropriated for some
public building, under the
compulsion of public senti-
ment, but the appropriations
have been unused. Under
the Wagner bill money was
made available for public
building last year, and
months later none had been
used.
This was not due entirely
to a lack of sympathy for
the construction proposed.
It was due in part to the
technicalities and the red
tape which, serving as
cord, binds the hands of
government.
Some of these rules and
regulations laid down by
Sureaucrats serve a useful
The Washington times., 1933-02-11

purpose under normal con-
ditions. But in a crisis they
are all but fatal. When men
are starving it is stupid to
permit red tape to delay or
prevent action. The time has
come to smash through red
tape entanglements to action.
Smith Puts
1t Bluntly
To make this possible, Mr..
Smith proposes that democ-
racy, of its own free will,
create a director general of
public works and arm him
with autocratic, dictatorial
powers. Thus would he be
able to move swiftly, to meet
contingencies instantly, to
get results quickly. Smith
puts it bluntly and with
startling frankness:
And what does a democ-
racy do in a war? It becomes
a tyrant, a despot, a real
monarch. In the World War
we took our Constitution,
wrapped it up and laid it on
the shelf and left it there
until the war was over"
The favorite indictment of
democracy is that it is cum
bersOme because of the
checks and balances and the
ease with which it gets its
feet entangled in red tape.
This has more virtue than
vice under normal conditions.
In a grave crisis, calling for
quick decisions, followed by
immediate action, it is all
vice. Thus in war the Presi-
dent becomes a dictator and
may get beyond the Consti-
tuition and the normal law.
Woodrow Wilson did, Abra-
ham Lincoln did.

Smiths Dictatorship;
Leadership With Power

The Washington times., 1933-02-11
A Matter of
Necessity

And the crisis confronting
us today is graver than that
during the World War.
Smith does not overstate the
situation when he says:
I'm a depression we are in
a state of war. This stagna-
tion of business or whatever
you call it is doing more
damage at home to our own
people than the great war
of 1917 and 1918 ever did.
The only thing to do is to lay
aside the red tape and the
regulatory statutes and do
what a democracy must do
when it fights. t."
During the war everyone
was making big money; to-
day millions are unable to
earn their bread.
During the war our indus
trial, commercial, financial,
political structures were
sound; today they have
cracks and crevices.
More people have been
ruined, more people have
been killed, more people
have taken into their systems
the germs Of disease than
during the war.
This is war in which we
are engaged today-a war
for self-preservation-and it
no longer is a question of
red tape and regulations, it
is a matter of necessity.

THING as "too much loyalty"
You can't be just a little bit
loyal, any more than you can
be just a little bit honest or a
little bit DEAD.
.N A man doesn't mind so much
when a woman changes her
mind-it's her passion for "air-
ing" it that drives him to dis
traction.
The first girl who occupies a
mans heart seldom becomes a
permanent guest. There are
lots of transients after her.
But few women appear to be

Would Have Confidence
In Smith

The country would sub
scribe to the Smith plan,
assuming, of course, that
the dictator be a man in
whose justice and judg-
ment the public has conf
dence. They would have
confidence in Smith in such
a position with such power.
Thus most of us will sub
scribe to Smiths program:
IF we are going to get
anywhere in this business
of getting out of the de-
preston of using public
funds to stimulate business,
we have got to appoint a
Director General of Public
Works to wipe out these
laws and put the buildings
up"
In line with this the coun-
try gains by the power just
given Mr.. Roosevelt to re-
organize the Government in
the interest of economy and
efficiency. 1t is autocratic
power, it is dictatorial
power, it is the power abso-
lutely necessary if the crime
of waste is to be ended.

delicious and favorful sweet with
many uses.
Broccoli is a new-old cousin Of
caulifiower, rather new to this coun-
try but actually the vegetable from
which caulifiower was developed. It
is cooked and served like caulifiower,
discarding the leaves and cooking
merely the flower head and peeled
stalk.
Green beans continue to be plenti-
full, good and very reasonable. Local

market together with cabbage. cauli-
flower and Brussel sprouts. Winter
salads need not lack for fine quality
lettuce Plenty of salad dressing helps
to make them good energy foods and
the lettuce with fruits and vegetables
supply other necessary food elements.
Grapefruit is the best quality citrus

PHONE HEARINGS
TO RESUME June ID
Companies Will Have Chance to
Reply to Attacks Before
I. C. C.

The Interstate Commerce Commits
sions public hearing on q uniform
system of accounting in telephone
properties will be resumed at 10 am.
on June IA, at which time the country's
telephone companies will have an op-
portunity to reply to attacks launched
yesterday against the commissions ac-
counting order by numerous State
Utilities Commissions.
The State Commissions claimed yes
terday that the system unduly favored
the telephone companies. Some of the
commissions took the position that the
I. c. c. had no jurisdiction over the
companies, as not more than 10 to Is
per cent Of the telephone business is
interstate.
At the hearing there were evidences
OF an internal dispute in the ranks OF
the National Association of Railroad
and Public Utilities Commissioners. DR..
Milo r. Maltbie charged that the men,
Der of the Telephone Accounts Com
mittse designated by the association
from New York was not member Of
the New York Commission or its staff
and was not familiar with telephone
accounting. He insisted that in future
in any matter affecting New York the
I. c. C. deal with the New York Com
mission direct instead of through the
association.
When Commissioner Joseph B. East
man of the I. C. c. asked If there were
any other commissions desiring to deal

sion, represented by Commissioner

RESTAURANT BEER
SALE IS UNDECIDED
Beverage Board Will Request
Commissioners to Settle
Policy for Permits.

The question of whether licenses te
sell beer should be granted to res
taurants having lengthy counters OF
modified forms of the old bars, without
the foot rails, was still unsettled today
as the Beverage Permits Board started
first steps for issuance OF annual per-
mits.
Since reports at the District Building
were that it was doubtful If test case
would be made at court, members o1
the Beverage Board planned to ask the
Commissioners to decide this afternoon
on the policy as affecting annual
permits.
The board has issued temporary per-
mits to places having such counters OF
bars. It feels, however, the matter mus
be determined for their guidance in the
case of annual permits, to replace the
temporary licenses.
Don't Expect Test Case.
Leo. A. Rover, United States attorney
has not been asked yet to rule on the
matter and has not published an opin.
ion. District officials do not expect a
test case from an enforcement point OF
the law. They have been told by law
yers that Mr.. Rover would decline to
issue warrant for such a test, it was
stated at the District Building.
A test of whether, under the beer act
a counter is in fact table" where
consumption of beer Is permitted in
restaurants, may be made, however, by
a refusal by the Commissioners to issue
an annual license to one such applicant
The demand for additional temporary
permits continued light today, the board
approving % this morning, bringing the
total approved to date to 1925. A total
of 210 have been denied. The fees paid
for licenses totaled S122,350 at the close
Of business yesterday, but some Of this
will be returned as applications are re-
fused

The board will meet but twice week,
beginning next week, subject to ap-
proval by the Commissioners, Vernon
E. West, chairman of the board, said
today. He announced also the board
would make personal inspection of the
places where annual permits for ION

The board has turned over to the
Police Department a batch of 25 per-
mits, to have check made as to pos
sible police records of applicants and
to check on their moral regulations. All
