lieve this proposes fair take-of on q
new economic and political adventure
OF the first magnitude"
He was willing to attempt price fixing
only as q second step after setting up
precautions against overproduction, he
declared. because nothing like 1t had
ever before been attempted in the his
tory OF the country, and our decision
might serve as precedent for other
industries"
Reporting "intimationsr that some
producers plan to withhold their oil,
Tor better price when the price-f
order takes effect. Secretary Ickes said
such action would impair and perhaps
destroy the benefits of an orderly ad-
ministration Of the code"
Supply Has Suffered.
The Nations oil supply, Secretar,
Ickes said. has suffered from "reckless
exploitation and wanton waste"
Because oil is natural resource abso-
lutely indispensable to national de-
Tense" he said, the oil industry was
peculiarly charged with a public IN
terest''
For this reason I have no hesita-
tion in Affirming that unless the oil in
dustry can regulate itself" he said.
the Government will be justified in
taking whatever steps may be neces-
sary to regulate and preserve this es-
Sential resource"
He condemned q school of political
thought which euphemistically applied
the term rugged individualism" to 'un-
patriotic greed, ruthless waste and un-
paralleled selflshness"
He said he would campaign dill
gently and assiduously" against pro-
ducers Of hot" oil. produced in No-
lation Of State limits.
Writ Franklin of Ardmore, Okla,
chairman Of the central governing
agency Of the code, said internal strife
caused the industry's troubles
Every economic reason existed for
the comparative prosperity Of our in
dustry even through the depression"
he said. There was neither reason
nor excuse for our troubles.
Larger Returns Seen.
The reduced production in any State
where the new system has meant Q cut
will bring in larger returns than the
often wide-open production which pre-
ceded this attempt to stabilize the in
dustry."
Franklin predicted that sharp prac-
tices would be ended by the code.
The small man has felt he was
not compelled to obey laws and regu-
lations when the wealthy corporation
could hire a lawyer who could find
detour for the corporation. Today there
is Just one law for the great and
small" he said.
Like Secretary -Ickes, who preceded
him, Franklin raped the practice.

Aimed at Uncertainty.

Mr. Roosevelt'S associates say he de-
liberately strove to create such uncer-
tainty. That is supposed to be part Of
the scheme
His inner problem was to quiet the
farm inf1ationists and the industrial
money stabiliZation men at the same
time. So he strove to create an in
f1ationary psychology by suggesting dol
lar devalution in progressive indirect
way. In the next breath he sought to
pacify the stabiliZationists By offering
Stabilization when the proper devalua-
ton point was reached
Killing tuo birds NTH one stone

in opposite directions, miles apart.
However. that intention explains why
he confined the announcement of so
vast q project in a single rather am

game.
Brainwork of Warren.
The compromise was the handiwork
OF that phantom brain truster Prof.
Warren of Cornell. He was assisted ap-
parently by his Cornell colleague. Prof
Rogers. and Henry Morganthau, jr., the
farm credit expert
The old money policy crowd was as
much confuzed as you were Bernard
Baruch was not consult l. He had the
main hand in planning our last money
policy His friends say he submitted
a plan this time. but was not called
in for consultation on it.
Likewise, the Treasury and Federal
Reserve officials either were coolly
ignored by the White House or only
specifically consulted.

it's 1926 basis. That would be con-
tinued for this generation.
Obviously. Mr. Roosevelt held back
announcement of these simple steps be-
cause he did not want to be tied to
them. As long as he reserves the right
to change his mind, uncertainty Will
continue. 1t may encourage specula-
ton, but it will also keep every man
with a dollar on the anxious seat.
The boys have been expecting some
kind of imitation so long that they will
believe nothing now unless it is signed
and sworn to.
Mr.. Roosevelt is supposed to

made his radio gold announce
ment, that France 1rdS going OF

of the reasons he hurried to make
it. He wanted to protect our GOLD
position.
The President avoided mention of the
temporary blanket code agreements in
his radio speech, possibly because that
phase of the matter is nearly over.
The foreign exchange experts secretly
liked the speech, bankers and brokers
were confused, conservatives non-com-
initial and radicals disappointed. BY
pleasing no one you may come nearest
to satisfying every one.
