i should be regarded an even more binding oo-
Tgation from a moral standpoint
Uncle Sam is aiding many persons through direct
relief and such allotments of course IN the
form of gifts to the needy, but money when Is
borrowed from the government represents bona
fde obligation on the part of the borrower ana
must be repaid.
When states and municipalities began borrowing
millions of federal monies few months ago Tor
projects of one kind and another, some expressed
the opinion that such loans would not have to be
repaid, and that sooner later they would be
marked from the books of Uncle Sam Tins IS a
mistaken idea and has been from the beginning
An obligation which is incurred through the Dor
rowing of money from the United States govern
ment, is just as binding as the governments ooh-
cation to the individual when that individual buys
a government bond.
Uncle Sam may have taken on the appearance
of Santa Claus for many of the needy and unem-
ployed, but he expects repayment from those VINO
borrow his money and ars able to repay it'-An-

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
DELINoUENTs TO SUFFER


The announcement by the Home Owners Loan
CORPORATION of the institution of a score of suits
for foreclosure against borrowers from the corpo-
ration, comes surprise to many of u.s. Nor
is it surprising that the denqueneies appear large
ly the result of persons who have abused their
minds with the idea that the corporation was going
to be 'sunduly lenient" with delinquents, which is
to say, that some of the borrowers are attempting
to 'ride" the government
The provisions of the home owners loan plan
seem to be about generous as the provisions of
othersof the governments systems of loaning to
indiTlduals but it is said that those against whom
foreclosure proceedings have been started have
apparently made no effort to meet their interest
charres when it is found that they we'll able
to do
ItIstin appears that many people who have Dor
rowed federal funds for one purpose another
havsa idea that these obligations will not have to
be repaid 1t is quite evident that they are mis-

YES, BooTLEGGING WAS TO END

The brewers and distillers in this cour-
try estimate that their business the past
twelve months amounted to a total of ST.
500,000,000. The federal government au-
therities estimate that the illicit liquor
business of the country amounted to as
much as the legalized business. That IS
three billion dollars for alcoholic bever-
ages
The fact that the country spent three
billion dollars in twelve months for beer
and liquors is not more interesting, how
ever, than the fact that the United States
government believes that half Of the sum
went for bootleg liquor. The interesting
thing about this estimate of the bootleg in
dustry is the fact that the country was as
Sured some time ago that legalizing the
manufacture and sale of alcoholic bever-
ages would end the sale of bootleg liquor.
No, Percival, you are wrong in suppos-
ing that the bootleg liquor business is con-
fined to the few States that still have pro-
hibition laws. 1t is even more rampant in
the wet" States than in the 'dry" States.
The legalized liquor business furnishes the
best eSmOke screen ever devised for the
bootleg business.

OPPOSITION TO CAPITALISM LESS FRENzlED

Mr. Lippman feels that the edge has come off
of the frenzied agitation that going on little
while ago to get rid of the system of capitalism
in this country and to experiment with something
else.
There is no doubt about it. The people have
thrown off the seducng sophistry of the rabid enc
mics of capitalism and concluded that they had
better hang on to practice of economics that
may not have worked efficiently as it might but
which even at that was infinitely safer and sound
er than the only other system that could be cho-
sen, namely communism.
What Mr.. Lippman discovers about the dying
out of much of the spirit and temper of radical
ism is everywhere to be discerned.
You frequently hear some of the boys SAYING
that the Administration has swung to the right. If
it has, it is because the people got to swinging in
that direction frst-Ju,ian S. Miller in Charlotte

BAKER ON pEcApENcE OF sELF.RELIANcE

BAKER ON DECADENCE OF SELF-RELlANCE
Hon. Newton D. Baker who manages consistent
ly to keep level head no matter how pancky
conditions may be, has contributed a very sane
and wholesome article to one of the heavier maya
zines on the decadence of self-reance.
You need not force yourself down to the bread
lines to see evidence of such decay. 1t is rather
graphically manifest in spheres where least to be
expected.
And it is pathetic, if not tragic, to this fine
old ingredient in the staunch and stalwart Ameri-
can makeup lose out.
There are phases of indvidualism which, of
course, are impossible in world unified ours,
but indvidualism has some assets that no emerg-
ency should be allowed to moest.
And one of them is this spirit of sef-reliance
about which Mr.. Baker is speaking.
In the qualities that have played in the destiny
of this republic, it has been up toward the head
of the processonal.-Julian S. Miller in Charlotte
Observer.
