TIME TO CONSOLIDATE

TN deciding to restrict sharply the Administrations
legislative program for the next Congress session,
President Roosevelt is keeping faith with his breath
ing spell" promise to private business
Likewise his announced intention to bring govern
ment spending into closer balance with government
income gives added encouragement to business to
plan ahead with confidence that future enterprises
will not be burdened by too great public debt.
Nor there lacking healthy signs that business
whole has begun to cash in its opportunities,
and has begun slowly, but steadily to put into opera
ton program Of unemployment that will if con-
tinued substantially lessen the nations relief burden
The conservative national industrial conference
board reports that the number of ndustrially
employed in October was less by 86l 900 than in the
month last year. This means that more than
that number have been given employment, be-
cause allowance is made for workers who have come
OF age. Approximately 100000 names we're added to
industrial pay rolls in October alone.
The advance has been even more pronounced in
the last 30 days, Standard Statistics estimates in
dustral production at I'll per cent of normal, the
highest November since 1929 The New York Times
index of business activity has stepped up from an
of below 90 in October to 946 in the third
week of November
Retailers from all sections of the country report
the greatest Christmas shopping season in years..
While the business outlook today is bright COM
pared with the recent past, we have only begun
long climb which must be completed if we are to
achieve anything like fair measure of prosperity
For despite recent improvements there are still
cording to the best estimates available approximately
nine million jobleSs employable. Providing perma-
nent employment for these is problem beside which
all other worries of the Administration pale to
inSignhcance.
For that reason believe, the President displays
sound leadership in concentrating at this time on
efforts to consolidate the New Deals reform and
recovery gains, rather than to jeopardze those as
yet but partially fulfilled accomplishments by dissi-
patng strength in battles on new fronts. Like
wise is good timing for the Administration to plan
a realistic budget rather than to continue what
a large proportion of population regards as a
dangerous over-eXtenson of government credit
We believe that this is wise leadership for the
same that believe private industrys find
ing new jobs for nearly million unemployed in
the last year is far significant far more en-
couaging far more conducive to hope for the future,
than was the creation of three and one-half million
temporary government work-relef iobs-tsef re-
ma1kable accomplishment 1t is true because under
our system which the present generation at least does
not intend to change there no conceivable way by
provide permanent public employment for the
remaining nine million idle. They will have to find
jobs in private industry if at all

THE ROAD FROM WAR

CRAFTSMEN in this country and abroad privately
~ admit that any day may bring an explosion suf-
fciont to rock if not destroy civilization 1t is on
such hair trigger that one mans whim could easily
set it off.
Italy and Ethiopia already at it, Mussolini
may take on John Bull at any time. All Europe
stands under the threat of Nippon's sword is
poised above quaking China
Briefly such is the situation Congress will be called
upon to face the first of next month It's duty will
be clear. The American people want to stay out of
conflict, either across the Atlantic or the Pacific.
They demand neutrality Congress must heed their
cry.
The very first duty of Congress. therefore, will
be to broaden and strengthen the neutrality law it
passed in too great hurry last August. Senator
Homer 7. Bone. one of the committee which forced
the present law through at the end of the last
session admits it is far from adequate. So do many
others
Senator Bone believes that in addition to the
provisions of the present law, loans and credits to
belligerents should be barred for the purchase Of
any articles declared to be contraband of by
any belgerent"
Like Gen. Hugh S. Johnson the Senator would
adopt a come and get it" or cash and carry plan
for dealing with war trade generally. Munitions, of
course would be definitely embargoed, and for other
goods belligerentS would come and pay cash ION the
barre-head7 taking title for what they bought at
the waters edge
Pui even such trade as this might become dan
gerovs unless kept under control. For when war
profits lead to such swollen but false, prosperity
this country enjoyed during the World War the
temptation to prolong hostilties join in the fray
may become impossible to resist.
The oxford Dictionary defines neutral as mot
assisting either Of two oelligerent states state
that stands aloof.'

ROGERS MEMORIAL

CAPT FRANK HAWKS has just completed an
~ air tour through the 48 states stirring interest
in the Will Rogers Memorial details of which will be
announced Christmas.
Capt, Hawks found his trip not necessary
America in its enthusiasm Furthermore
it wants 10 build memorial, not of marble, but of
more lasting stuff something that will be of benefit
to humanity There is talk of Rogers memorial
foundation in behalf of crippled children
Such a movement would be true tribute to Will
Rogers. Capt. Hawks recalls that when he and the
cowboy humoriSt toured the drought country by
plane, Rogers would joke and wisecrack with the
suffering farmer folks but when he left they always
found { greenback under the tabecover or plate
One evening he couldn't write his daily funny
piece but sat broodng with tears in his eyes.
BY go,i." he said, those folks sure are in
tough spot
If the dimes and dollars pouring into every
town and city to the memorial committee are spent
to relieve little humans that find themselves in
tough spot the memorial will have caught the Rogers
spirit and perpetuated his tradition to kindness.

THE FINE-YEAR PLAN

TINE proposed 1ve-year plan for motor accident
reduction has merit because of it's objective At
the rate people being killed it is doubtful if COM
paratve safety could be attained under five years
But if the Indiana plan is accepted by the people
as sensible me,nod of attacking the problem it
should have the dt sired effect
large manufactrn company employing trucks
recently made thorough test which disproved the
belief held by many that in order to average 30 miles
an hour car must travel from so upward on open
stretches 1t placed these trucks on 45-mle basis
and after runs of several hundred miles they were
shown to have averaged, at steady slow driving the
desired 40 hour.
There is an Indiana man who has Travelled hun
dreds OF thousands of miles for pleasure, keeping
up steady pace, exceeding 40 miles an
hour. He gets to his destination just as we'll as the
speed demons who go around him. Steady does it,
he says
The fve-year plan, we understand, is to be edu-
cational Well great deal can be done by thorough
education. 1t might also include compulsory exami-
nation of motor cars, which would eliminate the dan
gerous conraptons now seen on the roads, and
physical and driving examination for applicants for
operators cards

while the farmer bid in his own cows-egally speak
ing. though they belonged to the mortgagee-at 5
cents head and cultivator plows at three cents
apiece the neighoor dangled from the highest limb
Of the nearest tree a hangmans moose. This little
reminder cooled the ardor of other woud-be bidders.
And now that remember it suddenly occurs
to us that what cone then was also probably
unconstitutional But somehow nobody on the
grounds raised the question at the time the sherfs
hammer was poised
The farm country today is seeing better times.
We hope that out of all the stress of litigation over
the laws which have contributed to the improvement,
a condition Will never arise to bring recurrence of
the tense and dangerous situation Of few years ago

AND HERE'S A BOOST
FOR MIR. GREENLEE
By Rex McFadden, Warren

By Rex McFadden, Warren
l frequently see letters in the col
umns of some of the newspapers
which refer to Pleas Greenlee, eX-
ecutive secretary to Gov. McNutt
as being the villain of the state adj
ministration. Blame of every kind
has been laid at his door
AS some one has said, he is the
most cussed and discussed man in
public position today And yet
there are said to be many thou
sands of men and women in the
state today who not only respect
and honor him, but are ardent fol-
lowers of his leadership.
From what I can make out of the
Greenlee case from a distance is
this: He has been worker, he has
taken the heat without whimper
he has given the glory to others and
has been happy to go on working
That should explain why he may
appear to be saint to some people
and demon to others. From what
contact I have had with Pleas
Greenlee, I would call him neither
He is loyal friend and straight
forward foe.
I like that kind of man and so
does every other American I know
He is man that has the courage
to stand out for the rights of the
people of the state as whole

THE PLAYS THE THING

T@HE report of the death OF the road in theatrical
Il business seems to have been exaggerated 1ndl-
annapolis certainly is enjoying varied list of Broad
way plays and is going to see the much dis
cussed Tobacco Road
Two or three years ago persons were saving that
touring companies of important plays were thing
of the past. Lack of theaers and lack OF patronage
by reason of the rise Of the talking pictures were
given as two Of the reasons.
But here they are again. Miss Cornells remark
able tour last year may have had something to do
WITH encouraging producers to send out companies.
AT the time writer's said it would have that effect.
Whatever the reason, we are having some plays

The Special Session
LShelbyville Republican,

The Governor is right attempting
to avoid a special session if it can
be done at all. When a chief execu-
tive calls a legislative assembly into
session, it is like hitching up a team
of colts that never before have worn
harness; there is no telling where
they'll go or what they'll do.
Legislators may be ordinary, Sc
date. calm and prosaic-all at the
same time-at home, but something
happens to them when they assem-
bic in the dignified halls of the two
legislative houses. They do things
they never would have thought they
would do. They do things no one
ever would have thought they would
Go. They go haywire.
There is some excuse for that.
Many of them have had no previous
experience. Voters are peculiar
There is scarcely farmer or bust
ness man who would be willing to
intrust his farm or his business to
persons without experience. But they
intrust the states business to per-
sons of little or no experience and
then complain if the legislation does
mot please them.

WPA USES TOO MUCH RED
TAPE, ASSERTS WRITER
BY Times Reader

BY Times Reader
We find that Mr.. Smith was right
when he made the crack that if he
certified 5000 for work on the WPA,
there would only be 1000 that would
work. I know he is right. I have
been trying for two months to get
certified from relief rolls to WPA
work. l first see the investigator
and she assures me that have been
recommended by her to 10 S. Me-
rldlan-St for work. When I arrive
there I spend the day just to find
out that I have not been certified,
and Miss Taylor, the desk girl, tells
me I will have to see my investiea-
tor That way they keep you run
ming back and forth.
I am not the only one. There are
hundreds of others. just go over
to 10 S. Meridian-st and see them
get the little white slip of paper
from the desk sergeant to see Miss
Taylor, to see if they have been
certified for work Or it may be to
get a note from her to take back to
the investigator; the note will read
NO, Mr.. So-and-So has not been
certified here for work" as if they
didn't know that before they sent
them for the note. But the men
are classed by the Office as dumb,
and had better act that way.
I would like to be one of the
lucky ones to get one of those 1000
jobs that Mr.. Smith said would not
be filled. have large family and
would like to get one of the WPA
jobs for there is nothing else I can
get
Such things as are being imposed
on the people by holding them on
relief are unjust to the administra-
ton and the New Deal, but I nope
that the red tape passed out by this
small politician won't be noticed by
the man that is for the New Deal.
There are better times ahead.
