Britain and the New Deal.

As far as our British cousins and
the New Deal are concerned, it is
manifeStly not case of distance lend
ing enchantment to the view. This
week the Roosevelt evolution" as the
President prefers that the great Amer
ican adventure shall be known, came
under scrutiny by the British Associa-
ton for the Advancement of Science
at Aberdeen. Washington brain trusters
will be constrained to think there is
high treason within the craft when
they learn that much of the scathing
criticism to which the current order
in the United States was subjected
emanated from college professors.
But the most condemnatory COM
ment came from q distinguished busi-
ness statesman well known in this
country-Sir Josiah Stamp, a governor
of the Bank of England and a member
of the original Dawes Preparations
Commission. Sir Josiah aSsails the
New Deal on the ground that it
tramples upon the profit motive, on
which trade and commerce have
thrived since time began. He said:
What appalls me about the Amer
lean new order, is not merely the speed
at which things are being done, but
the fact that men are being en-
couraged to suppose you can revive

Traffic Law Uniformity.

From the Kalamazoo Gazette
In his recent statement, indorsing
the designation of September as
safety month";" President Roosevelt
wisely included plea for the adop-
tion and enforcement of uniform
traffic laws throughout the country.
1t Is a plea that ought to be
sounded repeatedly by public leaders
until definitely needed by the Legis-
latures and local governing bodies of
the whole Nation. Any motorist who
has travelled any considerable distance
beyond the environs Of his own COM
munity knows how confusing and an
noying variations in traffic rules can
be. These variations may mean dan
ger in some instances, and they are
certain to mean inconvenience in
many more. The actual meaning of
the red crossing light Is one example
Of the problems which the touring
motoriSt encounters again and again.
In some communities a right tuin
on the red light Is entirely permis-
sible, while in others it may mean q
ticket or at least an outburst of
unf1attering comment from the po-
liceman on duty Some cities per-
NIT cars to proceed straight ahead
through street-car safety zones; 9TH
ers require that one keep to the right
Of the zone, whether there Is any,
one waiting to board a street car or
not. Any well-traveled automobile
owner can add to the list easily
enough by calling upon his own ex-
perience.

SHOOTING STARS.
BY PHnANDER JOHNSON.
RainboWyiIle.

RainbowvilIe.
Started out one Summer day
For Rainbowville, not far away.
Fine location, we were told,
Where you just picked up your gold;
Never saying, eff you please;
Always living at your ease.
Just beyond the maple hill
Fortune smiled, in Rainbowville.
Past the fields, where ripening grain
Glistened with the recent rain;
Following still the prismed light
Till it faded from our sight;
Where the willow bough inclines,
Where the poison ivy twines;
Through the orchard, past the mill
We kept on toward Rainbowville.
Weary, footsore, cold and wet,
Hunger, mingling with regret,
Bade us turn to childish rest
Next day we'd renew the quest,
And we did. Ambition fond
Ever lures to the beyond.
Years have passed, and we are still
On our way to Rainbowville.

Stamps for the Capital.

The success Of the current National
Parks series naturally enough sug-
gests that further use be made of
pictorial or scenic designs in postage
stamps, and doubtless there will be
many who will agree with William
Shrader, an ardent junior philatelist,
that set to advertise to the world
the natural and architectural beauties
of the Nations Capital would be both
interesting and useful.
other countries long ago established
whatever precedent may be required.
Austria, Germany and Switzerland
have had attractive stamps showing
bird's-eye views of towns, old cathe-
drals, castles and other monumental
structures. The Bosnian postal
service in 1905 sponsored fifteen such
issues depicting hills and valleys Of
romantic or historical significance;
and Belgiun, beginning in 1928 and
continuing through the present year,
has represented in a lengthy sequence
the principal Gothic edifices of Brus-
sels, Ghent, Malines, Tournai. Ant
werp and Liege. Only few weeks

bureau announced the publication Of

WASHINGTON OBSERVATIONS
BY FREDERIC WILLIAM VILE.

the redoubtable native son has not
been the dominating personality in
the fray. The current conflict on the
Coast is Upton Sinclair's show. He
not only has the center of the stage
and the limelight in the State itself,
but in the country at large, because
upon no other battle-ground are out
side States fixing so much of their
attention. That is because a Social
ist candidate for Governor on the
Democratic ticket draws the issue
clearly between radicalism and con-
servatiSm.
Government cash Is now being
loaned to farmers at the rate of
$125 100000 q month, establishing
an aI-time record. The total ad-
vance against farm mortgages from
January l to September l, 1894,
reached a round billion dollars. It
represents more than 4 times the
amount loaned in 1893 and 80 times
the sum lent by the Federal Land
Banks in 1882. Altogether, $780,
100000 has been loaned on the Sc
curity Of farm mortgages since the
Farm Credit Administration was or
ganized in May, 1888. F. C. A. Gov.
Myers thinks the program for re-
financing the depression debts of
American farmers is now "over the
crest" and that a more normal period
OF land bank financing is in sight.

Fellow politicians in Washington,
Republicans and Democrats alike, are
waiting to see whether New York
Republicans are going to induce Jim
Wadsworth to run for Governor, So
far the former Senator has resisted
their Establishments. His friends are
persuaded that, rather than risk local
defeat in 1884, he prefers to remain
in the national picture as a member
OF the House of Representatives, with
a view to his greater eligibility for
the G. o. P. presidential nomination
In 1885. There's still an extensive
school of thought that believes Wads-
worth is the elephants best bet two
years hence.

industry while you are still sitting on
the handspring. After all, the main
spring of all individualistic enterprise
Of any kind, outside Russia, is the
making of profit. Unless you are get
ting people to make money, you will
never get unemployment. Yet this is
the last thing that seems to have been
thought Of in America If the result
of all your regimentation is a red ink
figure you will always have a trade
depression.
A more sweeping, yet terse, indict-
ment of one of the inherent weak
nesSes of the N. r. A. system is in
conceivable. 1t will be hard nut for
the economic planners and regi-
menters to crack
Hardly less devastating is the con-
tention of Prof. David MacGregor Of
oxford University that President
Roosevelt is moving too fast" and
with too much fuss"-apparently a
shot at the ballyhoo and propaganda
which have accompanied the reor-
ganization Of American life during the
past eighteen months.
1--WE in Britain dealt the cards of
the New Deal long ago." he ex-
claimed. "It IS not a new deal at
all, but it is Just dealing in hurry"
Industrial codes and social insurance,
he added, have been part of the Brit
ish economic picture ever since the
Lloyd George budget of 1909. "Roose-
welt is now thinking of social insur-
ance," the Oxonian said, "and is try
ing to crowd into six months what we
in this country have accomplished over
a period of twenty-five years. Yet our
economists go to America and come
back and shout into the microphone as
though the Roosevelt program were
something new"
Despite these slings and arrows,
nearly all the speakers at the Aber-
deem meeting proposed devotion to
the ideal of planning. Sir Josiah
Stamp voiced general dilemma when
he confessed he is still trying to find
his own economic niche" somewhere
between the Communist ideals of the
Soviet and the "old unreStrained in
dividualism of the Coolidge era" Sir
Josiah conceded that uncoordinated
individualism had led to many mis-
takes in the past, but holds that abso-
lutte planning is equally likely to lead
to CHASTITY muddle"
Our British kinsmen have a special
right to comment critically on Amer
ica's efforts to extricate itself from
the throes of a five-year depression
because, without deserting time-hon-
ored Anglo-Saxon traditions, rooted in
the liberty of the citizen, Great Brit
ain has given the world magnifi-
cent example Of progressive recov-
cry. She has shown that economic
reconstruction and economic freedom
are not incongruous; that, indeed,
they are natural concomitants.
