The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-06-02

Washington, June 2 = TWO prominent EngiIshmen, looking over tho Now Deal independent. " of each other recently made identical criticisms. They were Sir stafford Cripps, left wing labor leader, and John Maynard Keynes, famous ec0- nomIst. Both said that what the New Deal needed was q plan. They felt lt was wandering rud. derlesg from one policy tO an. other without rhyme or reason. Whether or not this is q valid criticism, it is being taken seriously by some of the pfepi. dents close advisers, especially q little group which argued with Keynes last week for several hours. As result it is highly probable that this sum. mer will see q little steering committee functioninE nt the presidents right hand tO keep the New Deal on q more even course.
