many of the more radical ideas OF the
brain trusters will have been discard
ed. The best minds in industry ana
finance are no longer standing back
and merely criticizing. They are TAX
ing an active part in planning for the
future welfare of the nation. Here
with are summarized some of the i'm
portant new developments in this di-
rection:
President Henry I. Hartman of the
United States Chamber of Commerce,
in pursuance of a resolution adopted
by the board of directors, has appoint
ed a committee of six men, headed by
Silas Strawn Of Chicago, to cooperate
with other business and agricultural
associations in drafting plans for the
recovery of business. The board Of the
chamber endorsed the continuation of
relief and housing, but signified that
business is still opposed to the unbal-
anced budget, further reduction of
working hours as embodied in the
movement for 30-hour week, new and
unprecedented OUTLAWS for public
doctrine of majority rule in collective
bargaining, and unemployment insur-
ance.
Through the National Association of
Manufacturers, invitations were sent
to every manufacturer in the United
States to attend a national industrial
conference in New York on December
5 to draft constructive recommends
lions" for presentation to President
Roosevelt. Among those signing the
call for this meeting was John ]. Ras-
kob, former chairman of the Democrat
ic party. Included in the questions the
industrialists will try to answer are:
What in the future should be the re-
lation Of government to business?
How is the gigantic problem to be
met to relieve distress and at the same
time not plunge the nation into bank
ruptcy or threaten it's credit?
How Is the new flow of private capt.
tai into legitimate investment to be
stimulated?
What new moves to curtail unem-
ployment are practical and feasible?
In a petition addressed to the Presi-
dent and congress the National Econ
omy league has presented a definite
program for balancing the federal bud
get in the coming fiscal year. holding
that only by balancing the budget can
sustained national recovery be accom-
plished. The petition proposes heavy
reductions in government expenditures
and additional taxes totaling $685., OO0,-
600, but does not presume to suggest
how the new taxes should be raised.

Element Of labor disputes arising out
of the recovery act, especially those
involving collective bargaining.
EORTY-FIVE new bills were pushed

in five days with Senator Huey Long

just what to do, but seldom stopping
20 tell them why. The "Kingfish' says
he now is in position to make the state
a Utopia, or rather, in his own words,
1.-The kind of state nobody has dreamed
Of" 1t is the general belief that he
hopes his ''share the wealth" program
will ultimately land him in the White
House.
The senator's most ambitious legis-
lation is the statute proclaiming two
year moratorium for harassed debtors.
Another bill sets up civil service
commission, composed of state admin
istration leaders, with power to re-
move police and fire chiefs. That will
give Long control of virtually all mu-
nicipal policemen and firemen. Long
said the bill was intended to take them
"out of politics"
Longs first contemplated move to
bring his new laws into use was dis
closed when he announced Clint O'Mal-
ley, Alexandria chief of police, would
have to be removed from office by the
civil service commission because he
permitted two riots in the public
square"
VNTHILE seemingly futile CONVERSE
w lions about naval limitation are
continuing in London, the United
States and Japan are engaged in what
looks like little game of bluff. Sec
rotary Swanson, after asserting the
American navy would be built up to
full treaty strength, and that this coun-
try could beat any others in a navy
construction race, intimated the other
day that it might be good plan to
send one of our great navy dirigibles
on trip to the Philippines.
Vice Admiral Sankichi Takahashi,
new commander in chief of the COM
bined Japanese fleet, declared Japan
was determined to retain the west Pa
cific mandate islands at any cost; and
that Japan's claim to naval equality
with Great Britain and the United
States with view to an all-round re-

and most reasonable scheme magma.

of Nations, the mandate given her aft

next year. Admiral Takahashi says
the Japanese navy is ready to resist
forcibly any attempt to take these is
lands away from Japan.

Who says so? Mussolini does, and
he has inside information another Eu-

that Italy will get more from this next
war than she got from the last. She is
getting ready, training even small boys

In his chapter on statesmen in the
philosophical Dictionary" Voltaire
said he did not write for the states
men of his time, because they were
too busy to listen. He wrote for young
men that would be statesmen and do
something after his death.
That was sound prediction. Those
that were young when he wrote got
rid of kings and laid the foundation
of the powerful French republic after
he was dead.
Writing for the young, offering sug-
geStions, is a pleasing occupation.
When the suggestions are carried out,
after you die, you cannot be held re-
sponsible if they prove to be unsound.
Maj. Gen. Smedley D. Butler, who
commanded the marines, says: "Iu
never again carry rifle beyond the
borders of the United States" OF
the 100000 men sent to Europe he
says: Il did not come across a single
one who knew why he was there"
General Butler is right. Any fight
ing outside of our borders should be
done from the clouds-bombs and poi
son gas dropped by airplanes-and
from below the water with submarines.
Concerning the amusing fashion in
which country like the United States
manages a great war when it rushes
in unprepared, General Butler says:
THE war never brought this country
anything. A few insiders made money.

1880 per cent. The government bought
for use in France $2O,OOO,OOO worth Of
mosquito nettings, and there wasn't a

The new prime minister of France,
Flandin, tells the chamber of deputies
that he will keep the franc stable and

The French, most logical nation in

mined, will know how to carry out that
program. g.

But Senator Borah does accuse the
relief administration of shameful waste
and bad management, so bad that
about half of the billions were appro-
priated in vain.

 The new bowling alleys in the Washington Park Community house have been kept busy ever since they were opened the begin ming of the week.

Social Resolutions

Congregational Church Head Seeks Interpretation on
 Social Gospel and Economic Problems

representative it is, the more im- pressive it's opinion; therefore the resolutions of the General Council on subjects germane to the Coun- oil for Social Action should be considered as more significant than the expressed opinions of u single local church or of any smaller body. In this connection the Council for Social Action would naturally take into account the size of the vote and any other circumstances connected with it's passage. The resolution on the social gospel and economic pfob- lems was passed by a vote of 130 to IT. There are over 800 mem bers in the General Council, the small number voting being due to things: CD the relative small at- tendance at the time the vote was taken, and (2) the fact that a considerable body the council pre- ferred not to be counted on this particular resolution. It should also be noted that the resolution moves in a somewhat different area from that of the Council for Social Action whose chief func- tions are research and education with occasional action in specific situations, whereas the resolution deals with general principles and large scale social systems.
 Social Moment Research
 "1n connection with the whole matter also there should be taken into account the fact that the dominant idea of the General Council regarding the Council for Social Action was that it was to be body entirely free and un- trammeled to pursue intensively its research into questions of so- cial moment; to carry on its edu- cation in Christian social ideals, and in specific situations to act in its own name as a body of the church.
 Regarding the budget of the Council for Social Action, the General Council does not make appropriations its function is to make recommendations concern ing benevolences. The commits sion on missions at the instance of the General Council is asking the churches to contribute $45,0OO for the Council for Social Action. This they may do or refrain from doing. This sum added to the regular budget of $15,O00 hereto fore appropriated by the educa- ton society for its department of social relations would make a total of approximately $60,000. The transfer of income from the endowments of any board to the budget of the Council for Social Action is not contemplated. The total amount available from all sources for our purely denomina- tional benevolences in 1893 was $3,5S9,519. This means that the proposal is to expend approxi- mately IT per cent of our budget In the field of social relations"
