THERE'S NO REVOLUTION WHILE
PROFIT PREVAILS
(By BRUCE CATTON)'

Although it has become the fashion to
speak of the recovery program as kind
of revolution, no one who looks into the
matter closely can fail to see that basicaliy
it really is a conservative proposition.
The truth of this statement can be test
ed by looking at the very obstacles which
are slowing up the progress OF recovery.
First among these obstacles, no doubt, is
the fact that the owner of capital still IS
bit skittish about putting his money to
work. His fear of initiation would seem TO
have been quoted by the fortnight man.
ner in which the gold question is being
handled; but he still is afraid that he will
not be able to make a profit on the en-
ployment of his money, and so he is hang
ing back.
In the past, depressions ended when the
chance to make money began to reappear
in commerce and industry. We are trying
to end this one in the reverse orderly
putting unemployment and Increased
wages first and trusting that profit will fol-
low in the natural sequence.
Owners of capital are not yet persuaded
fully that the profit actually will appear
on schedule Furthermore, witnessing the
vast sums that are being spent, and con-
sidering the heavy taxes that will have to
be levied ultimately to meet these eX-
penses, they are afraid of what may hap
pen to their profit when it does appear.
Consequently, capital in the main is
heSitatant, and the recovery program does
not make the speed we should like.
Yet all this fear of capital, and the eff
forts of government to provide reassuT-
ance, add up to just one thing: The fact
that the new deal is, at bottom, conserva-
tive and not revolutionary.
Notice this, for example: The entire re-
cOvery program still depends on the profit
motive-the distinctive feature of the CAPT
talistic system as we have known it. There
is no hint that the profit motive is to be
shelved.
Capital may be hesitant, fearing that the
scheme may not work out we'll; but it isn't
running for the storm cellar, as it would if
it foresaw any intention to do away with
the rules under which profit is possible.

AGRICULTURAL
SCHOOLS OPEN
Over a Million Farm Boys in
This Country of Ia to 21
Years Are Eligible
COMMENTS BY w. III. KING

Over a million out-of-school farm
boys in this country between the
ages of IA and 81, are eligible for
instruction in agriculture and re-
lated subjects in part-time voca-
tional agriculture classes, accord
ing to bulletin just issued by the
Federal Board for Vocational Edu-
cation. This group, composed of
boys who are farming in some ca
pacity and who in most cases have
not had any special training for
farming, may receive instruction
in part-time vocational agriculture
schools which will assist them in
establishing themselves as farm
ers. Intended primarily as a guide
to teachers in setting up and con-
Quoting part-time vocational agri-
culture classes, the Boards bull
letin is enlightening to the lay
man, also, in that it shows the
need for gathering out-of-school
farm boys into instruction centers
and the diversity and thoroughness
Of the courses available to them in
part-time classes. 'Part-time
schools may and do provide in
struction in the fundamental prin-
ciples of agriculture as well as the
specific farm enterprises common
to particular farms" said w. Har-
ry King, member of the Federal
Board for Vocational Education, in
commenting on the boards new
publication, "Guesswork in in
struction in these schools is elimi-
mated through the community sur
vey, made by the teacher, in which
information covering the farm
practices and the economic and ag-
ricultural conditions are determin-
ed, and a record is made Of the
age, school experience, farm exper-
fence, farm status, interests, earn
ings, and savings of each farm
boy, and Of the opportunity open
to him for entering the occupation
of farming. Such data enable the
teacher to cooperate with pupils
and parents in formulating a farm
