NEWSPAPERS OPINION
THE BUREAUCRATIC MIND

Tbora are evidences that considerable eleien'
among Government officials and persons intimately
associated with them in efforts at rehet are coi~
.,lo+;pg the permanence of measures Whlch
have been understood to have been Instituted as
+sronorarv means of relieving unemployment, and
therefore misery. This is typical Of the bureau
orat;c mind The vast organizing Of government
IN business affords thousands and tens of thou
sands of Jobs Each of them has salary attached
which compares extremely favorable with the pre-
seriousness of private wages profits 1t Is conf
Portable to be fed from the public crib.
But who pays for all this? 1t must be paid for
by those of the community who are able TO san
their own boat and attend to keeping ahoat the
government craft also. The more people Oh INC
independent kind, able to take care OF themselves
there are, the better; the more there are unable
to make their own living in independent enter
prise but under the necessity, or supposed neces-
sity of having artificial employment produced az
public expense, the worse.
The perpetuation of relief works beyond the
time when they are semi-charitable necessity
merely tends to increase the virtually dependent
class and to prolong the burden on those parts OF
society that are virile enough to take care o.
themselves.
The bureaucratic mind instinctively looks on
government as possessed of unlimited means for
doing pleasing things. 1t considers government
works as the normal way things ought to be. 1t IS
sort of childish mind, like that of the infant
who takes for granted everything that father and
mother do for it. 1t does not understand where
things come from or how they got.
The bureaucrat must administer whatever gov
eminent activities the public mind decides to be
needful; but betide country when the bu-
reaucratic mind becomes its masted instead of It's

WE RIDE MORE THAN WE TALK

Before the full weight of the depression hit the
nations there We're in the world about thirty-fve
million telephones, and of these we had in the
United States approximately nineteen millions. At
the height of prosperity there were in the world
about the same number of automobiles as there
were telephones but of these we had in the United
States more than twenty-six million cars In tele-
phones we had, roughly, one for every one outside
OF the United States, but in automobiles we had
three for every elsewhere.
The automobile is an ever so much more expen-
srVe tool toy and task than the telephone, and it
is natural that the higher American standard OF
living should put us much further ahead of the
other nations in automobiles than in telephones
But within our own confines it is odd that we
should have seven million more automobiles than
telephones. This is all the more striking because
of millions of people in the large cities where "a
car is certainly not necessity, but where a tele
phone seems to be.
But then in the matter of the automobile il &c
not case of necessities or comforts or even luz.
uries With the American people TIE automobile
is passion 1t calls to the very depth of the ma
tional being. That is why in eight American FAM
lilies out of ten the wife does her own housework,
while the automobile average is almost ten cars

"The deeper the government through its chief

the cotton growing plan, the more befuddled it
gets" So says the Matagorda County Tribune:
''The whole scheme from beginning to end is so
utterly ridiculous it would be amusing if it were
not serious In one or two years more it will
be the prime comedy of the century. The most
ridiculous thing about the whole is that there
is not man connected with the origin and ma
nipulation of the plan that ever saw cotton stalk
or knows anything about the conditions which gov
the growing of cotton. The process tax is the
shame of the age The tax amounts to S22 a BALE
which, of course, consumers pay, without adding
dime to the price of cotton. This amount repre-
sents as much per bale as many cotton farmer
bought farm WITH but still it accomplishes
nothing. .-. .u,

thought that by the first or middle of June
all business houses will be occupied. Some
of these new business enterprises are to be
classed as summer" business, but others
are of more permanent character. Resi-

that is, seized all gold coin and withdrew

news comes from Washington that the
government proposes to "nationalize" sii-
Yer. Does this mean that the government
will proceed to seize all the silver coin in
the country and hold it as government
property. Perhaps this will not be done
under the naturalization" of silver; but
If that course is taken, it will leave the
country with nothing but paper money in
