BONUS ARMY AWAITS
RECRUITS FOR MARCH
New Force Will Go to Capital to
Ask for Cash Relief.
By United Press

SACRAMENTO, Cal, April 3D.
Organizers of new bonus march
on Washington today awaited REIN
forcements before advancing on the
national capital to present demands
for immediate cash relief for every
world war veteran and for war
widows and dependents.
The Workmen's Ex-Service Mems
League organized the present march,
which was to follow the path taken
from the Pacific coast by the
marchers of the Hoover administra-
ton. Fifteen men formed the nu-
cleus of the new movement,
The leaders said that they would
remain here until Saturday, yhen
the entire army would be assem-
bled to move eastward in trucks,
automobiles and freight cars.

Company Has Shown Wisdom

THAT labor should revolt under
L such system and seek
through collective bargaining and
force to collect a larger portion OF
the revenue they help to produce is
not surprising. The surprise, in fact,
is that they have not made greater
demands.
The General Electric Company is
to be complmented not so much be-
cause of it's liberality toward its
workers but rather because of its
wisdom in recognizing the begin
ming of a labor revolt against the
old order far in advance OF its
neighbors and in attempting to
compromise on a situation it might
find difficult to overcome at some
later date.
One of the serious weaknesses in
corporate management as it has
existed in recent years is that man.
agement has given neither capital
nor labor a square deal. 1t has
operated the corporations as if they
were their own personal property
and has taken as much of the pro-
ceeds from their operations as they
could get away with. 1t is that
fact rather than any serious fault
in the capitalistic system which has
led to the disproportion in the
spread of wealth.

In the past recognition has been
given in many instances to eXecu-
tives of corporations who take good
care of their charges. Large bonuses
have been paid such executives. In
fact, many people regard some of
the bonuses paid as being entirely
out of proportion to the services
rendered The tendency of such a
policy is for executives to pay work
ers as little as possible so that
capital may earn more and so that
they may receive larger rewards.

XXTHILE the precedent it has set
w is of the highest Importance,
it can not be said that General
Electric strained itself in its bid for
peace with its workers. After all
charges, expenses, taxes, etc, have
been paid and after common stock
holders have been apportioned 8 per
cent on the book value of their
holdings, workers may then receive
up to 1919 per cent of the balance
in the form of a bonus.
It would seem that the workers
might well share equally with stock
holders in any dividends, which are
paid in excess of s per cent of book
value. In that way depreciation and
reserves would be properly a taken
care of, and an incentive would be
provided for workers to remain with
the company for a longer period.

RECOMMENDATION and restriction of
output and pushing up costs ahead
of profits and collectiviSt planning.
Then, there is a group among
whom Professor Tugwell is the most
conspicuous, who may, I suppose,
fairly be called collectivist. There
is another group, represented by
Professor F'rankfurter, who are not
collectivists and not planners, but
at bottom old-faShioned trust bust
erS who diSbelieve in monopoly and
giant corporations and would like
to restore competition and return to
smaller scale in business enter
prise.
To lump them all together and
assert that they have an organized
purpose and are directing the ad-
miniStration is absurd. In fact, the
real criticism to be made of the
brain trust is that it has no COM
mon brain and that the program
which it's members have helped to
formulate is a mixture of conflict
ing policies.
1T is not a conspiracy that we have
= to worry about. 1t is confusion.
The attempt of the agricultural ad-
justment administration for exam
pie, to bring farm prices up to their
prewar parity of purchasing power
with manufactured goods is in di-
rect conflict with the policy of NRA
in permitting or approving the arti-
ficial raising of the prices of manu-
factured goods.
The imitation brought on by the
monetary policies is in conflict with
the semi-monopOlistic practices un-
der NRA. The various measures
which tend to check capital invest
ment, such as the securities act,
NRA prices for capital goods, and
the NRA wage policy which raises
cost in advance of employment and
profit, are at variance with the
budget program which depends
upon a\revival of investment in the
next twelve months.
These are the serious problems of
the administration. They have been
created not by group who know
what they want and are proceeding
resolutely to get it, but by many
men of different minds who have
not thought out clearly the relation
between one policy and another.
The real trouble has been that the
President has lacked a council of
advisers who had a common con-
ception of recovery and reform, and
the leisure to consider carefully the
program as a whole.
The brain trust has been too busy
to be brains trust. The President S
advisers have been set to work do
ing this and that particular thing
They have been specialists and little
more than that. AS a result, he has
been without the assistance of a
really effective group of counSelors
who could harmonic and co-ordi-
nate his policies.

IMPROVISATION and haste

IMPROVISATION and haste, a
L patchwork of different theories,
lot of talk about planning one
thing and another, but a lack of
planning for the effort as a whole;
these are the serious criticisms
which can be brought and must be
met.
My own observations have con-
vinced me that amidst all this i'm
provising the thing which has tilted
the balance in favor of policies of
RECOMMENDATION has been the fear of
plenty and the conviction that the
country was overbuilt and over
producing. Such planned collectiv-
ism as we have, beginning with
limitations of output under NRA
and eliminating in the Bankhead
bill to control cotton, has been
planning to reduce production.
This is not Communism. 1t is de-
f1ation. 1t is typical manifesta-
ton of defation, and has no more

out Of their surplus coffee. 1t is
not the Communists, but textile
manufacturers and cotton planters
and oil producers and the like who
have formulated the codes, backed
the laws for regimenting produc-
ton.
For my own part I do not believe
this is the true road to recovery,
though perhaps in special cases it
can be justified as a measure of
relief in a dire emergency. But it
is in this belief in overproduction
and not in any Communist theory
or propaganda that each impor-
tant step toward regimentation,
planning and compulsion his orig
mated.

insane-she leads a quiet, un-
eventful life in the State hospital

flashes of the fiery temper that
she showed so SenSationally dur
ing her many appearances in
court, according to DR.. James r.
