The struggle for winning the youth

SOMETHING TO REMEMBER

Citizens who are interested in Keeping
the record of NRA straight, should paste
this in their scrapbooks:
According to the federal government 5
own figures and estimates, Industrial pro-
duction in the United States was exactly
the same when NRA went out as 1t was
when NRA came in. Employment had ut
creased five per cent. and wages had IN
creased ten per cent.
The situation may be summed up by say
ing that manufacturers were employing
five per cent. more wage earners and pay
mo them ten per cent more, but produe-
tion was at a standstill and was not m
creased at the end of two years reign OF
NRA.
In view of the fact that the total cost
to the country of NRA probably amounted
to several billion dollars, who is prepared
to argue that the results were worth the
cost?
Therefore, it is but the simple statement
of plain truth to say that MIA tailed
the country recognized its failure before
the Supreme Court announced its decision
General Johnson spoke the truth when ne
said NRA was as dead as the dodo before
the court officially pronounced its demise
Yet, in spite of all this, the President
and Congress seek to hang the carcass OF
the blue eagle around the cOuntry's neck
Merely scheme to keep lot of people IN
Washington. on the public payrolls until
after the next national election, is what
this newspaper sees in this action.

VICIOUS TEACHING

Professor Rexford G. Tugwell of NRA fame-or
perhaus notoriety would be better word IN MS
case-said in a speech out in Albuquerque, Ne"
Mexico, the other day that ''the nation is exposed
+o dangers of internal strife" as a result OF the
ITn;ted States supreme courts NRA decision.
First we found ourselves in economic ruins and
now we find ourselves deprived of effective means
for reconstruction" he declared.
Which is another instance of the manner III
which the radical professional element now ana
recently in Washington has helped to dscredit the
so-called New Deal
Dr. Tugwel in this instance was speaking emery
to students in his commencement address at tAe
University of New Mexico.
This is probably fair example of the manner
in which such men as Dr. Tugwell are hllng the
minds of our students with radical and revolution
airy thought. A.,
> The idea that we are any more exposed to dan
eers of internal strife" because the supreme couri
decides that the law must line up with the const'
tution is vicious teaching, and especially so con
inc, from one who is supposed to be. leader ano
educator of youth.
II is pernicious and vicious teaching as well u
,,aliciously false which DR.. Tugwell attempted e
instil into the minds of those college students II
New Mexico that 1--WE are deprived of effective
means for reconstruction" under our broad ah'
flexible American constitution.
l We have had about enough of the political SOD
( bling of the New Dealers of DR.. Tugwells sort.
And especially do their continued and repeated
suggestions that our constitution is out of date AM
inadequate stir our resentment.
/ We have had too much of the effort to do some
thing by ignoring the constitution.

struction under and within the constitution Til

FAULTY PENAL SYSTEM

The declaration by Judge Howard, when impos-
ing sentence upon youth guilty of an armed hold
up that Gin sentencing you realize that the SEN
tence of this court is account; know you Will
be out shortly, by escaping, by some other meth
od' is a ringing indictment of the operation OF
Georgia's penal system.
If those who are tempted to break the law knew
that, if convicted, they would face the certainty
of long term in prison, there would be fewer
youths entering careers of crime.
The serious threat to the public welfare from
the situation condemned by Judge Howard is re-
vealed in the record of crimes committed by es-
capped or unworthily paroled prisoners.
Police officials know, generally speaking, that
when they arrest man he will, in all likelihood,
after conviction and sentence, soon be back in his
old haunts preying on the public. And the courts,
as pointed out by Judge Howard, know that SEN
fences are often mockeries.
| Such conditions are reflection on government
and on the public for permitting them.

vice in so vigorously citing the existence of this

North. South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama IN TACT
all Southern states have lands which could nave

they would have Jared much better.

lice claimed discovery yesterday

REGRETTING

the finishing touches and made
that policy a part of me.
Eleanor and | decided to buy
bovine and to spend fifty dol
lars for it. Soon a man came
along with an attractive creature
| for which he wanted siXty-five
/ dollars. Tempted by this mans
recital of her virtues, | offered

offer. And another fellow bought
her.
Eleanor was tremendously dis

"Then along came another man
with a peach of COW and he
sold her to me for fifty dollars
The day afterward l found out
the reasons the owner of the first
COW wanted to sell her: She was

twelve. kicked like a mule and ate
like an elephant.
No man has the mentality tc
anticipate contingencies whcf
might arise from a given act. Nc
man can figure out with any de,
gree of accuracy how a different
set of conditions would have
worked out. Ii he had done the
things he regrets not having done
they might have worked him into
some position far less desirable
than the one in which he finds
himself.
