WHAT DEPRESSION IS

IOHN T. FLYNN's recent analysis of the
things that happened following the 1929
stock market crash have contained great
deal Of sound sense. One of the best hits was
his definition Of depression, carried in the
series in The Times.
"A man out of work." says Mr.. Flynn, lis
a depression. A factory closed down is a de-
preston. An industry working at loss and
without business is a still bigger depression"
Elementary, of course. But Mr.. Flynn
points out that even in the prosperous years
before 1929 we had many individual depres-
sons Of that kind.
They formed, as he pointed out, focal points
of infection. When a real check to national
prosperity came, they helped spread the in
lection everywhere.
All of which is just another reminder that
ultimately we all stand or fall together. I'm
less all are getting share Of prosperity, none
Of us is really safe.

SECURITY-WHICH ROAD?

TOR their gingerly cropping with the prob
lens of social insurance, advisers to
President Roosevelt are criticised vigorously.
On the question of unemployment insurance,
alone, for example, business demonstrates that
industry should not be overburdened, and
labor dissents to proposals that substantial
contributions to the insurance fund be taken
from pay envelopes. Meanwhile large tax
payers grunble that the government should
not carry the load.
No one expects two specialists like Abra-
ham Epstein and DR.. I. M Rubinow to have
the same solution as an industrialist like
Owen D. Young or professional labor leader
like William Green. Epstein and Rubinow
are among Americas foremost social security
crusaders. Neither has ak to grind. And
it seems not illogical for laymen to hope that
at least they can agree upon common plan
of action. Do they?
Last winter, Epstein's treatise, Insecurity:
A Challenge to America" was the leading text
book of social insurance reformers. Now, from
the Henry Holt press comes Rubinow's new
book, 1.-THE Quest for Security
Starting with the same set of facts and
with somewhat the same premise, those two
scholarly authors have worked toward diff
ferent conclusions.
Reviewing RubinoWs book, Epstein COM
mends its philosophy and literary STYLE but
disagrees sharply with many of his colleagues
opinions 1t is nonsense, argues Epstein, for
Rubinow to attempt to segregate government
relief problems from the problems of social
insurance and to speak of the stigma attach
ing to government pensions. Nor does Ep-
stein see much merit in Rubinows willingness
to compromise with an unemployment insur-
ance worked out through industrial codes
Such plan, contends Epstein, as a strong adj
vocate Of aggressive government participation,
is on all fours with the Wisconsin plan of
individual company reserves.
Accident, illness, old age and loss of job,
says Rubinow, are the four horsemen of de-
Struction that ride hard through the lives Of
Americas wage-earning population. He con-
dennis as woefully inadequate the state work.
mems compensation laws that have been
erected to reimburse workers for the annual
100000 industrial accidents. He upbraids
the medical profession for blindly keeping
medical costs prohibitive to the vast majority
of the lower and middle classes He finds lit
tie to commend in the old-age pittance doled
out in state pensions to the superannuated
who have no other possible means of support

FEAR OF POLICEMEN

A BROOKLYN man was having & hot ar
n gument with two other men on street
corner the other day. policeman came up
and prepared TO act the part OF peacemaker.
The Brooklyn man took fright. turned and
ran.
The policeman called to him to stop, got
suspicious when the man doubled his speed,
and finally drew his revolver and fired at
him, wounding him severely.
Then it turned out that the man had done
nothing wrong. He was a law-abiding citizen
with nothing on his conscience. He simply
got panicky at the sight of cop and couldn't
control his impulse to cut and run.
It would almost be worth while to know
whether this man. as child, was ordered to
be good on the theory that the policeman
would get him if he misbehaved
Certainly, that kind of treatment must
leave many an adult with a subconsciouS but
strong fear of the man in uniform.

tion-co-operate with power companies and
the manufacturers to promote the sale Of
appliances is a distinct asset to the electrical
manufacturing industry" he says. TO find
rates so lowered that prospective customers
are not frightened at the possible cost Of cook
ing electrically, heating electrically. or re-
frgerating electrically is an attractive, pros
pect."
Now what. asks Mr. Curtice will be the
result Of all this? Power companies will be
bringing their rates down to a point where it
will be absolutely necessary for them to get
additional appliances on the line to justify the
lowered rates.
This will mean much new business for the
manufacturer; that, in turn, will open great
new sales field to the power industry.
In other words. this dreadful specter Of the
government in the power business is quite
likely to bring a new prosperity to all branches
Of the electrical industry.

another chance, but gives no cause
why they went out of business.
The New Deal may have made
mistakes. Does anyone want to see
times like they were during the
other administration? Any thinking
person can see we are on our way
out. Getting back to normal is sure
to be expensive. No worthy person
is allowed to suffer from cold or
hunger.
The calamity bowler is finding
fault with everything being done
and sees no chance for the people
unless the c. O. P. returns. Some
of the old standpatters may get
back but it will be under an as
sumed name.
The evidence that times are bet
ter can be seen in many ways.
There are more good cars on the
streets and highways than ever be-
fore. People are better dressed.
Most important of all is the in
creased attendance in churches and
Bible classes.

COAL LIKES NRA

THE convalescing bituminous coal industry
= petitions the federal government for at
least two more years Of restorative NRA medi-
cine. But the coal men want the prescrip-
ton changed slightly. to get more relief from
antitrust laws and gain freer hand in fix
ing prices.
No other American industry was quite as
sick on the day the Blue Eagle first lifted its
wings. For more than a decade conditions in
the soft coal fields had gone from bad to
worse. The industry, by itself. had failed utter
~ in even approaching a solution to its
problems
The National Coal Association displays
foresight in asking Tor continuance Of orderly
mining and marketing Of coal, which has
made possible a measure Of balance between
production and consumption and certain
regularity OF profits and employment But
the government should not:
l. Relax its check on waste Of natural re-
sources or permit such practice as stripping
and abandoning uneconOmic mines.
2. Surrender to the industry price-fzing
powers which might lead to gouging of help
less consumers or block an indicated general
downward price trend.
3. Forego its experiments in the develop
ment of water power. as suggested in the coal
associations selfish condemnation OF the
Tennessee Valley Authority.
T. Lift antitrust laws and grant monopo-
Hstic advantages, without a counterbalance
of more rigid government control to insure
fair wages and practices.
1t has not been proved yet that effective
national planning in the coal industry Is
possible under a system Of private ownership.

TREBIZOND

MEN in airplanes flashed over the Near
Ava East in their race from England to Aus
tralia. They passed near the sleepy port of
Trebizond on the Black Sea.
Trebizond lives only as a romantic touch
for poets-"from here the caravans start for
Persia" But in the past Trebizond held the
combination of culture and transportation, the
commerce lanes to civilization.
The Greeks called the great Byzantine
walled city Trapezus. 1t was lot more than
a trading point, Professor Alexander A. Va
siliev of the University Of Wisconsin found in
his recent researches
1t may have been the long-sought link be-
tween eastern and western civilizations Va
siliev has found it had a distinctive culture,
which it may have disseminated over the whole
known world of $500 years ago.
Interesting to those OF us who never found
Trebizond in our school histories is the fact
that after a long colonial Deriod-Some 1000
years-an empire was established around Ire
bizond in 1904 a. D. It's emperors patronized
art and learning Their women were sought
as brides by Mohammedan princes and the
Byzantine emperors. Its rulers paid tribute to
some nations and warred with others.
The poignant fact, however, is that after
more than $50 years-a good deal longer than
the United States has existed-the proud en-
pire fell and dissolved into dust.

SOUR ON REPUBLICANS FOR
RELIGIOUS ATTACK
BY a Times Reader.

BY Times Reader.
The cartoon in Wednesdays
Times certainly describes the Hoo
SER Republican party to perfection.
AS long as it sponsors clowns and
mental midgets like Arthur Rob-
inson, it can count on driving voters
to the opposition.
My first vote was cast for Calvin
Coolidge, Republican. At that
time, the Republican party hadn't
degenerated to such a low mark as
it has now. However, I switched
parties when the Republicans put
on that putrid, narroW-minded re-
igious campaign against Al Smith.
That was enough for me.
Today we see much the same
method Of reasoning among the
Republicans as then. In the pres
ent campaign, one almost would
think Paul V. McNutt was running
for Office. All Republicans do is
knock NcNutt.
To all Republicans I would say
this:
Let the Democrats remain in office
for sixteen years before you even
begin to compare the record.
In conclusion, I would like to state
that I firmly believe we get our
punishment for wrong deeds here on
earth. To my way Of thinking, the
sad remnants Of one time party
is today paying for the sins of a
dirty campaign conducted in 1923.

A FEDERAL CRIME

UNLESS the federal government acts, the
~ Alabama Florida lynching probably VIII
90 unpublished like virtually all other lynch
ings. Because of the mob's removal OF the
victim from one state to another, this was an
interstate crime.
It is significant that those leading IN the
appeal for government action are southerners'
The messages to President Roosevelt from
the commission on interracial cooperation and
to Attorney General Cummings from the AS
ISOLATION Of Southern Women for the PreYep-
ton of Lynching are further proof that the
real spirit of the south abhors these frequent
outbreaks of barbarism.
Lynchings are almost impossible without
the connivance, open or tacit, OF the local
officers of the law with mobS The long, Sad
shameful record of racial mob savagery proves
beyond argument that this terrible type OF
crime never will be controlled until the federal
government intervenes to preserve American
legal processes and to protect the lives OF its
citizens.
Enactment of the Costigan-Wagner anti
lyncning bill, necessary to give the federal
government power in all such cases, Is one OF
the major charges upon the next congress.
But that law can not De passed without the
active support of President Roosevelt, in whose
administration there already have been forty
five lynchingS.

ATTACKS INVESTIGATION
OF BANK SITUATION

By Daniel B. Luten.
In your issue of Oct. "a, John T.
F'lynn's wall Street and the De-
preston" deals with the exposure
Of Charles Mitchell, president Of the
National City bank of New York"
and says that PecOra drove him
from the headship of the bank.
I quote further from Flynn:
But after Pecora's sensational
exposure of Mitchell and the Ma
tional City Bank and later of the
NIorgans and their escape from in
come taxes for three years. sup
preston was impossible"
Mitchell was indicted for trans
ferring stock to his wife to reduce
his income tax, the effect of which
would have been to transfer the
payment to a subsequent year. The
law did not forbid it; he was ac-
quilted. If any one was chargeable
with laxity therefore it must have
been the legislators who passed the
law, the very body that was placing
the blame on the bankers by its
methods of investigation.
The NIorgans did not pay income
taxes because they had no income
for the three years in question. How,
then, was there any escape from
income taxes? If this represents
the nature of the investigation by
the senate committee, is it any Won
der that we had banking crisis,
created not by the bankers but by
the committee?
Add to the above the broadcast OF
charges by a Detroit cleric for Il
nancial advantage, that bankers
were crooks because they believed in
a gold standard that was imposed
on the country by bribery OF our
legislators a half century ago. Gov
ernmental Investigators may well be
viewed with suspicion.

Now, however, it appears that transoceanic

that Mr. McNew ever rode on a
railroad, much less worked for one,
as he doesn't know that the public
counsellor under the new law in
Indiana has no judicial authority
of any kind. He couldn't grant
permits to authorize abandonment
of anything.
Just as Mr.. Minton was, he is the
lawyer for the people when they
come in to get their utility rates
reduced and it is a proud record
that Mr.. Minton made when the got
better than 100000 a year cut of
the water, gas, light and telephone
bills. Did Mr.. McNew's friend, Ar
thur Robinson, ever do that much
for all the people Of Indiana? MOI
He humbugged labor and passed the
hat among the veterans and if he
is any friend Of theirs at all he IS
only their fair weather friend.

furloughed railroad friends want
Mr.. Robinson they can have him.

I am voting for Mr. Minton be-

like the railroad retirement act and
