Roosevelt Takes Hold

President Roosevelt's inaug- ural declaration that he would invoke wartime dictatorial powers if necessary to secure the means to effect his policies and his swift action to check the wave of financial hysteria sweeping over the country have thrilled the nation to it's core. The reaction everywhere appears to have been convict ion that at last we are to have some real action and a studied and genuine effort to restore more prosperous conditions, in- stead of the financial shilly- shallying and platitudinous mouthings which have so thor oughly disgusted the nation, while permitting it to reach the very brink of economic and financial chaos during the past three years.
 Action is what the people have wanted and prayed for during those desolate years while gaunt famine stretched forth his grisly hand ever clos CT to the masses and prayers and curses brought neither hope nor succor. The prompti- tude with which President Roosevelt has taken hold of his job is to them a most pleas ing and encouraging sign that at last a leader has appeared who will save them from utter poverty and degradation.
 Even in our own isolated and sadly stricken little commun- ity, the response to the new presidents definite and vigor- GUS words and moves was an immediate increase of confi- dence and renewed optimism that found expression on every countenance and in every ut terance on public questions.
 While it is too early to even remotely estimate the possibil- ities of the policies advocated by MT. Roosevelt, he has shown clearly that he is prompt and vigorous in action and is not inclined to stand idly by and twiddle his thumbs while the country goes to utter rack and ruin What headway he will be able to make against the intrenched forces of pluIder and selfishness which have brought the nation to it's pres ent plight time alone can re- veal, but it is clearly evident

A Prize Captive.

Capture of Harvey Bailey and five
other persons implicated in the kid

is an achievement to the high credit of
the Federal agents of investigation and
detection. The story of their discovery

cision which are now in vogue in the
pursuit of criminals After his release
Urschel, the kidnapped man, related his
experiences and recited his recollec-
tions of the nine days of his imprison-
ment at some place unknown to him.
which he believed to be in either Texas
or Oklahoma. Though he was blind
folded throughout this period, his kid
napers had not thought to stop his
ears, and he noticed that every morn
ing and afternoon a plane passed over
the place, and that one afternoon it
failed to come With that clue the inves-
tigators set to work to idendify the To-
cation by study of airline schedules
Through elimination they hit upon the
probable route and, after interview
ing pilots and radio operators, they
learned that on the day that Urschel
had noted the absence of the plane
noise one Of the pilots of the service
had swerved from his usual course
because Of bad weather. That fact
circumscribed the possible area OF the
search, which then proceeded with air
planes and by motors until finally a
farm house was located which seemed
to meet all the requirements. Inves-
tigation proceeded respecting the oc-
cupants and when all was ready the
place was surrounded and entered and

How far Government control goes de-

arisen because of the resistance of the
Tory section of capital. But of this
everybody may be sure-the millions of
both overall and white-collar men. after
three Winters of suffering, are now in q
frame of mind that will brook no in
terference with the effort at recovery.
Those who cannot bring themselves to
conform will have to stand aside. No

that their objections run only to nego-

Calls Roosevelt's Gold
Edict Unconstitutional
To the Editor Of The Star:

To the Editor of The Star:
In a recent issue of The Star Paul
Mallon says:
You cannot 60 on with existing cur
rency conditions forever. Some day
some dollar standard will have to be
fixed"
This leads to the question What is
a United States dollar?
Before President Roosevelt took the
helm of state a United States dollar
was-potentially, II not actualy-a gold
dollar
Gold was circulated to a negligible
extent; silver is too bulky to be popu
lar as a circulating medium. and the
chief circulating mediums were gold
and silver certificates, respectively.
However. the law guarantees the parity
of all United States moneys; hence sill
yer dollars and silver certificates were
convertible, directly or indirectly, into
gold
Gold certificates were convertible
specifically into gold; hence President
Roosevelt's suspension of gold pay
ments is clearly unconstitutional. for
the Constitution says that the Congress
shall pass no law impairing the obliga-
ton Of contracts.
Can the President make laws that
are forbidden to the Congress?
Moreover, all debts contracted before
Roosevelt's demonitiZation of gold were
payable in gold at its present weight
and fineness
No man can predict what the United
States Supreme Court will decide. but
the foregoing are the only rational in
terpretations.
The talk of a commodity dollar is
nonsense.
And the specious plea that Gov
ernment hasn't enough gold to pay its
debts is too puerile to merit refutation.
BY parity of reasoning every bank in
America could be declared bankrupt.
President Roosevelt has the conf
dence of our people: and. in my opin-
ion. their faith is well founded. I have
supported. and still greatly admire him,
believing that he is in dead earnest in
his efforts to ameliorate the deplorable
condition Of our people.
However, he is not above criticism.
and there is no shadow OF doubt in nv
mind that his edict in regard to gold is
unconstitutional and, moreover, "a gi-
gantic economical blunder.
