BITING THE HAND THAT FED THEM

It's a strange thing but one of the noisiest at tacks on the New Deal is coming from the home of the old Ohio Gang" of Harding days which with its rugged ndivduasm" proceeded under Daugh- erty to loot the national resources It under tuition that the Teapot Dome scandal with the Albert Fall and other unsavory episodes were etched the escutcheon of the nation
 Now that same old crowd everything going to pot under the Roosevelt Administration. This is the Roosevelt Mis-Deal' shouts George H. Ben der, Chairman of the Ohio Federation of Repub- lican Clubs. The Roosevelt tax plan means 're- distribution of poverty" cries his henchman George B. Chandler representing the Ohio Chamber of Commerce, in waing against the advent of gov ernment into business. Wild words of wild men, made wild perhaps waiting for another Harding gravy train to chuggng along.
 But let's look into the record. We find that business under the Republican regime had failed in dealing with the problems of unemployment, and falling markets were crashing about it's The people were impoverished; States failed to provide work for their people, and all, including the State of Ohio, cried to the Government to do something. Whole communities throughout the land were un- able to pay their teachers, farmers made destitute by drought and lack of market for what they did produce. Banking found itself in dire straits. Thousands of banks, under State super vision, had to close their doors
 The Government, which is now accused of being unconstitutional, had to step in. Under Roosevelt it did that very thing the sound Rooseveltan premise that the welfare of the people is the

A Cornerstone.
tNew York World -Telegram0

 President Roosevelt's signature to the Wagner Lewis Social Security Act puts the United States on paper at least suddenly abreast score oi other civilized countries that for decades have provided against some of the hazards of the machine age
 In little more than year the Administration and Congress have framed law covering reforms denied to human beings through many heart-break- ing decades.
 The od-age pension. unemployment insurance and provisions for underpriveged children and the sick and the blind sweeping that they would have been laughed away in the Hoover days as chimerical.
 With all it's faults 1t may prove to be the great est achievement of the New Deal Passing law is little than a declaration of intention. Equally important are, first, public opinion behind it's enforcement and next the kind of men and chosen to administer it.
 No act so far adopted federally calls more in- sistently for expert administration It must brave the sabotage of certain employers, withstand the schemes of political pandhandlers and porch-climbers and meet thousand problems utterly new to our government. President Roosevelt should choose with unusual care those who to fit it to the realities of our complex State-Federal system He would do well to avoid the window dressing Of "big names" and the lure of politics.
 To make this truly noble experiment work will require the nations best hearts and brains.

J0BLESS VETS
HERE BEING
SENT HOME
u. S. Buying Tickets
For ManyWith WPA
Work in Sight

Destitute war veterans, massed
in the National Capital, are being
transported back to their home
States at Government expense
and put to work on WPA prof.
ects in their home areas.
Until recently it had been the
custom to ship the veterans to
Civilian Conservation Corps camps
and, until last September, to re.
Mobilization camps in Florida and
Alabama.
The new scheme was evolved
by the Veterans Administration,
coordinating with the Works Prog.
resS Administration.
About 500 veterans are still be-
ing cared for by relief agencies
in the District.
Only Temporary Move
Most of those still in the Cap
ital are being cared for at the
Transient Bureau, although that
agency went out Of official exist
ence October /.
In disclosing the new plan to-
day, officials of the Veterans
Administration stressed that it
was not a permanent scheme, but
designed only to relieve the Dis
trict of its unemployed veteran
group. They warned that they
would not be able to care for
others that might be lured to the
Capital by the plan.
Also, Veteran Administration
heads pointed out that no further
enrollments in the Civilian Con,
versation Corps would be made
through their department. The
next general CCC enrolment is
January /, but all quotas will be
filled in the camp areas.
How Plan Works
The plan of sending veterans
back home works thus, it was ex-
planned:
Veterans are registered at the
Veterans Administration and the
Transient Bureau.
When an application Is ex.
amined and the veterans eligi.
bility established, he is given a
railroad ticket to his home and
letter to the local WPA admin
istrator recommending that he be
placed in a job as early as pos
sible.

AAA Now Owing Farmers
Over Half Billion Dollars

With the AAA already under
heavy financial obligation to
farmers, officials today expressed
concern over added financial bur.
den imposed by the Supreme
Courts temporary Injunction re-
Straining collection Of processing
taxes on rice.
Present rice adjustment con-
tracts call for payments totaling
$8,204, 900, of which $2,446,6 $50
had been paid up to August 81,
leaving q net balance Of $5,737,-
311 due farmers. Estimated rice
processing taxes for the 1886
fiscal year were set at $12.000,-
600.
An Administration spokesman
pointed out, however, that should
the Supreme Court delay its ulti.
mate decision on the case filed by
eight Louisiana rice millers it
may be necessary to look else
where for funds to pay the bal.
ance. He added that a good por-
ton Of AAA funds have already;
been scheduled for payment Of
other benefit payments and Ad-
ministrative expenses.
The present obligation to farm.
ers totals 529 million dollars,
leaving a balance on hand of 116
millions. Officials said that should
the AAA act and amendments be
declared unconstitutional the or.
ganiZation would be 1851 900 900
"in the red" In addition, the
AAA contemplates further obligat-
ing itself to the tune Of $347 ,000,-
900 under wheat, cotton and
corn.hog contracts before the end
Of the year.
Chester c. Davis, AAA admin
strator. recently estimated that
the AAA would be under q 900
million dollar obligation to farm.
ers at the end of the year.
