BLAINE MINCLES
WITH COUCH ON
REC. BOARD
PoLITIc ! ASSOCIATIONS IN
WASHINGTON BRING TWO
TOGETHER AT SAME TABLE
IN AGENcY's ACTIVITIES
By HERBERT PLUMMER
cay Associated Fressl

WASHINGTON. July g.,
Strange political associations have
cropped up in Washington under
the Roosevelt administration
One of the strangest is to be
found down at the Reconstruction
Finance corporation where for
mer Senator John J. Blaine of
Wisconsin has taken over the job
Of director in that governmental
agency.
Blaine, for years an outstand-
ing independent republican in the
senate, was defeated in Wiscon-
sins last senatorial election. But
he had been among those repub-
licans who supported Roosevelt in
the presidential campaign, and so
the former senator received an
appointment as director OF the r.
F. C.
In accepting the job Blaine
finds himself sitting ON the same
board at the same table with Har-
vey c. Couch of Arkansas, also an
r. f. C. director.
When President Hoover named
Couch to the X. F. C. back in
1892 Blaine fought the appoint
ment in the senate. He succeeded
in getting only 10 senator's to 10
along with him in opposing COUGHS
confirmation. but he put up stiff
opposition.
Blaine We. Couch
There appeared nothing per-
sonal in Blaine's opposition TO
Couch. He admitted on the floor
of the senate that he had never
seen Couch and knew nothing
aboat him personally.
He went back into the records
of the u. s. Board of Mediation
and paraded before the senate
findings of that board in an ef-
fort to prove that COUGHS rail-
road down in Louisiana had
treated labor unfairly in the mat
ter of wages.

With the conciliatory

and confusions beset Wash
ingtOn while the vacation

ing it's leisurely way up the
New England coast.
Doubtless this was due partly
TO the natural difficulties Of put

and. partly to the fact that the
government has grown aceus-
toned to quick action in the
White House and felt keenly its
temporary lack.
No disposition was apparent to
complain because the president
was. taking a few days of quiet,
after all he had been through, but
more than one high official, COM
PEELED to go it on his own for the
time being, welcomed the end of
the Roosevelt vacation with a
sigh of relief.
Tackling A Problem
The industry control administra-
ton did not get away to so
smashing a start as it's friends
had hoped.
There was the question whether
General Johnson, administrator,
or the cabinet committee which
sat with him, was to be the final
authority next to the president.
The situation was adjusted for the
time being, and a final decision
apparently postponed, but mean
time the discussion had become so
public that the general found it
desirable to issue a statement say
ing all was harmonious.
Naturally, the officials in
charge of this project are them,

.ALSMITH SAYS
RECOVERY ACT
CANNOT WORK
FORMER NEW YORK COVER
NOR SEES TENDENCY To-
CRIPPLE INITIATIVE IN
PROGRAM OUTLINED
Especial to The Citizen

NEW YORK, July 6.-Former
Gov. Alfred E. Smith, writing in
the New Outlook. asserted he
might be "old-fashioned' but he
could not understand how the ma
tional recovery act "can possibly
work."
81 have never hesitated to re-
commend the extension of govern
ment activities to meet the needs
of a growing population in an age
of industrial invention" wrote
Smith, democratic presidential
nominee in 1928, "but this plan
goes beyond anything my magma
tion can follow"
At the bottom of the causes of
the depression, said Smith, is hui
man nature. He added that it
was only by raising the general
level of human character through
out the world that a new society,
free from the causes of depres-
sion, can be brought about.
Viewed from this angle" Smith
continued, 1.-The job is one for the
philosopher. the priest and the doc
tor rather than the statesman,
lawyer or business executive.
Too Much Faith
ST do not mean to say that we
must spinelessly accept present
conditions. | do mean to. imply
that there is such a thing as put
ting too much faith in political
and scientific schemes of salvation.
This is the field day for the
academic planner. for the man
who has been reading in the Ii
brary, writing books and lecturing
to students, and who now has a
great big laboratory for expert
ment."
The first article of the recovery
act, said Smith, provides for the
control of business and sis obvious
ly the work of the new school of
social and economic planners"
The act, he continued, contemplate
ing agreements governing all
branches of industry, abrogates
the Sherman antitrust law.
"The act is labeled as a tenn
porary emergency measure so as
to get it by the United States SUI
preme court" said Smith.
Initiative Crippled
eff its terms are carried out lit
orally, the tendency will undoubt-
edly be to cripple initiative, legal
ize and even officially encourage,
monopoly, raise prices and require
higher tariffs to maintain the new
structure. In such a triumph of
bureaucracy, the little man would
be lost in the shuttle.
"0n the other hand" he con-
tinued. "the powers may not ac-
tually be used. 1t may be just an
other case of giving the radicals
the machine and letting the con-
servatives run it. If this is so, in
the end it will not satisfy either
group, and both groups are likely
to feel that they have been handed
the bologna.
81 am in favor of applying the
curb to industry where necessary,
but not of placing the heavy,
paralyzing hand of the government
upon all the business enterprises
of the nation. | believe in good
public administration, but | know
its limitations. I am in favor of
restoring conditions which make
business leadership possible rather
than of looking to the government
to provide it."
