the country beheld SO many efforts
by lawmakers to put industry, finance

Some observers have drawn a COM
parison between the action Of domin-
ion and provincial governments and
measures in the United States. While
the MIRA Is the spearhead in the U.
s. A., however, Canadian lawmakers
have tended more to handle the prob
lens Of recovery throug the provin-
cial Legislatures.
The current toward regulation is
strongest In the west. It Is not 50
powerful in the more conservative
east. There Is an eddy ct Ottawa,
where the dominion,s proposed natur-

will turn out to be potent influence
on the sweep and direction Of the tide.

Is before the federal parliament. It
would establish . federal marketing
board to control import, export and

farm credit administration, is
another Cornell professor who is
a poultry expert. On eighty-four
acres near Ithaca he raises
10000 chicks and 5000 hens.
Whether he uses the Warren cleo

Young Henry Morgenthau, who
studied at Cornell, brought Myers
into the new deal, appointed him
as his successor on the FCA.
Myers wrote the original farm
credit setup and in general has
done swell job.
There are many other close
Roosevelt advisers, including of
course Rex Tugwell of the original
brain trust. But in gauging, prais-
ing or maligning the present re-
vamped brain trust, one fact
stands out more than any other.
None Of them is putting any ideas
over on Roosevelt.
The President is forming his own
ideas. He picks ana chooses from
the varied array around him. His
1adicaliSm is their radicalism. His
faults are their faults. AS far as
policy goes Roosevelt and the
brain trust practically are one
and the same thing.

PROFESSOR JAMES HARVEY
ROGERS of Yale is an original
member of the money trust and
was influential in selling RooSe-

dollar. Like most professors he is
extremely sensitive to anything
that is said about him, and the
thing that hurts him most is the
accusation that he was responsible
for the commodity dollar. Rogers
is retiring and timid, but carried
weight in the days of monetary
upheaval.
PROFESSOR GEOR GE F.

who sold Roosevelt the commodity

CLeU TO the Purpose

Turing the parade of witnesses I recognized one
II gentleman 1 knew-Colonel E. R. Bradley the
Kentucky turfman.
Senator Huey Long was popping lot of questions
at him. 1t seemed that Senator Long wished to
establish the fact that Colonel Bradley made living
in a manner somewhat unique.
The senator seemed to be attempting to prove
that the nomination of the aforementioned Moore
was in some way other tied up with sinister prac-
tees and that the equally aforementioned Colonel
Bradley represented the evil side of the picture.
AT a moment which struck being much less
dramatic than apparently planned, the Colonel
asked by the senator if he a gambler and when
the colonel answered very calmly and with some
thing approximating pride, Sure a gambler;
1 will gamble on anything and there didn't seem
much else to be said.
Sitting back with the other witnesses, I decided
that had been called down here, in my capacity
a rowing sports writer. to get my kinds legs and
confess under oath, that I had heard it whispered
at some time other that the colonel was a
gambler.
So when the colonel himself admitted from the
stand that he not only gambler. but that he
was practically an American Lloyds in himself, 1
felt pretty that there was little chance for me
10 become a conspicuous character in the proceed
ings-uness by some chance could manage it so

HONESTY WINS OVER POLITICS


By NEA SerUice
TULSA, Okla, April 7. 1t
Il couldn't be done, SO they
did it.
Lieutenant-Co Colonel Oscar Win
throp Hoop soon will take office
here as police and fire commits
sioner because his students Of
politics at the University of Tulsa
didn't subscribe to his theory.
Colonel Hoops theory, ex-
pounded by many a teacher Of
politics before him, was that an
ordinary citizen without organi-
zat;on backing has no chance in
running for public Office unless he
promises jobs, kisses babies, and
in general stoops to low and I'M
principled conduct.
Hoops students wouldn't believe
him. Further, they went right out
to prove him wrong. Result:
Colonel Hoop, 1894; opponent,
6,731, for police commissioner.
Here's how it all started:
Colonel Hoop was telling his poll
tics class of his favorite theory
that only organization-serving
baby-kissing, ee-promising cam
didates can be elected to Office.
A saucer-eyed youth of 10 in the
front row perked up with this
question: What have YOU done
about that?"
My Adams apple bobbed up
and down about five times" Hoop
relates, before I could find an
answer"
DUT he had to answer, and a
ID few days later, he filed his
candidacy in the Democratic
primaries for fire and police COM
missioner.
1t was just a demonstration.
In announcing" Colonel Hoop
said, Il wish to stale that 1 have
no prospects or desire for cleo
ton, nor is my announcement
made in response to public de-
mand.
L shall pay my own expenses,
shall make no promises to any
person or group of persons, make
no campaign, kiss no babies, and
conduct myself as a gentleman"
Professional politicians chuckled.
There were seven candidates for
the job, including lanky Thomas
l. Monroe, veteran office holder
and smart politician.
But the students did not chuckle.
They didn't think the colonel was
right. Being young, they felt it
