TOPIC TOWNS

Much as we have tried to be
at least sympathetic with the
Roosevelt administration's re-
covery policies and as much as
we tried to support them we
can't refrain from voicing some
OF the criticism now become pre-
valent.
We had occasion to talk with
several disappointed home
owners, who in recent months
have been trying to tighten the
burden Of debt on their homes
and we found in brief that one
worker can't get loan because
he has no job and the other
can't get loan because he has
z job.
Who in Heavens name then
can get loan?
s.
Home loans helped a great
many people last year. Although
it did not help US, as we
lost ours it helped hundreds of
others. Those helped by the
loan have been lucky. those who
still need help are unlucky.
Making a government policy
a matter of luck for the first
applicant is bad enough but
when, we hear (and this authen-
tically from Democrat congress
men) that not only luck but
politics have something to do
with the sudden refusal of grant
ing more loans in Ohio we are
downright disgusted.
We subscribed to and ap-
plauded many moves of the New
Deal, designed originally to help
the forgotten men," We believe
that the laboring man (this in
cludes all classes Of labor) should
get fair wage, that he should
be taken care Of when sick
when unemployed (not due to
his own faulty and when he
reaches his old age.
But we always imagined that
all social legislation is effective
for everybody and not just for
a few.
The government should not
measure the portioning out of
billions Of dollars for which the
tax payers some day will have
to pay, -,on a political basis. In
Ohio more people own their
homes per capita than perhaps
in any other state. Youngstown
stands fourth among all the
large cities in the country in
point of home ownership.
Every home owner should be
entitled to ease his burden. Just
to help a few is class help. 1t is
unjust. It is undemocratic.
Before home loans were
launched we said that if the
government embarks on this
course it should be prepared to
assume the mortgage on EVERY
home and on EVERY farm in
the country, thereby reduce the
interest burden resting on the
people, free billions of dollars of
money frozen in mortgages for
other investments, for the fin
ancing of commerce and industry
and the employment of the idle.
A few billions more one way or
the other does not make much
difference. We are getting used to
thinking in billions of dollars
(while we struggle along with
a few cents).
By all means liberalize home
loans.
Give everybody chance and
forget about politics.
s.
And while we are on this sub
ject.

women eager to work will have
to be helped.
We have heard the slogan so
often that we are getting sick of
it: Nobody in the country will
go hungry, unclothed, or without
shelter"
Why not change the tune and
say: "Nobody in this country
who is willing to work shall go
without work."
But instead the government is
embarking on a plan rapidly
leading to collectivism. It is
establishing all kinds of factories
and operations to give work to
unemployed making things they
need on an exchange basis. As
this plan spreads, more and more
men now employed become un-
employed. What a plan?
Instead Of uncertainty we
need stability. We must have a
clearly defined governinent-po-
licy one way or the other. The
American people are entitled to
know.

CHICAGO. February 10.-Quick
ttrnbles took place in grain values
early today. Inadequacy Of moisture
relief for drought districts of the
wheat belt was virtually ignored and
attention Of traders focused on weak
ness of securities. Opening So to l
cent lower wheat afterward dropped
further Corn started at ? to l cent
setback and subsequently held near
the initial range.
Power to recover developed in the
wheat market after prices had suffered
q break to about y cents below yes
terday's finish. Strong rallies in cot
ton helped wheat upward more than
! cent from the early bottom level.
A firmer undertone shown in the stock
market at this stage tended also to
put more backbone into wheat values.
On the upswings of wheat prices,
however, buying dwindled, and talk
was renewed as to proposed restrictive
legislation about dealings on ordinary
exchanges. Word of rains in Okla
homa today acted also as curb on
wheat purchasing. Notice was taken,
too, of cables from Liverpool that the
wheat market there had become easier
owing to cheaper offerings of Canadian
wheat. Corn and oats scored advances S
after stop-loss selling early was alb
sorbed. Outside markets continued to
bid higher than Chicago for corn in
Chicago territory
Provisions steadied when grains
showed some renewal Of comparative
strength.

New York Cotton

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, February 10.-Cottor
futures opened barely steady, to IL
lower in response to lower Liverpool
cables and under week end liquida-
ton. March. 1907: MAY, 1924; July
12.37: October, 1887; December, 1913;
January, 1921.
There was considerable liquidation
and some scattered selling. but offer
ings were not heavy, and after easing
off to 1921 for May and 1857 for
October on the call. or about 10 to
13 points net lower, prices turned
steadier. There was good trade de-
mand, apparently, as well as some
covering, and a good part of the
opening loss was recovered, with May
selling up to 1882 by the end of the
first half hour, when active months
showed net declines of only 3 or 4
points.
Liverpool cables said that some
trade buying had been supplied by
continental and Bombay liquidation,
and there was a little straddle selling
here during the early trading for Far
Eastern account, although brokers
with Far Eastern connections were
buying after the call, presumably to
fix prices. The opening weakness of
the stock market seemed to have
comparatively little influence. Early
reports from Texas said there had
been a good demand for spot cotton
there from the Far East and Europe.
