WE HOPE 1T WORKS

], The largest tax measure ever passed by legs-
latiye. body in the history of the world was that
one to which President Roosevelt set his signature
last Wednesday. 1t provides for a system of old
age pensions and unemployment insurance and
special care for dependent children and mothers
President Roosevelt stated that in his opinion it
would benefit directly thirty million people of the
United States. 1t will require the raising of an an
nual fund so large that the thought of it staggers
the imagination. Some of the friends of the move
ment claim that with modern machinery, those be-
tween the ages of 81 and 60 years can produce
Fenough for those over 60 and under 81. A pretty
theory and we trust it will work out satisfactorily

PLAIN TRUTH ABOUT PRESENT CONDITIONS

Here are mutitudes of Americans franticaly
struggling to grab out of the public chest plenti-
fully packed with funds for the needy in Wash
ington instead of getting out and hustling to find
Job for themselves and hustling great deal more
after finding it to keep it, white collared and other
wise .... g..
Here are the highways cluttered with boys and
girls trying to get something for nothing-thum5-
ing their ways through the world.
Here are little children from evidently respecta-
bic and perhaps independent families asking you on
the streets for enough money,to see picture show
the whole business of begging developing into an
organized racket. -
Here are demagogues filling the land with share
the-wealth nostrums, as immoral as they are ira
tional and daring to ask for the honors of the
presidency on the basis of their special pleadngs
for such form of theft and rapine and plumber.
And here's nation, young, lusty, robust, ag-
gressive, powerful resourcefu in opportunities AMI
in assets, committing ITSELF as government and as
"a people, to the dual philosophy of borrowing and
then begging. ... ....
One calls it "grotesque campaign OF salvation
by, boon-dogglery" and that hits the mark.
1t is, after all and in word, the virus of vaga-
bondage that is eating into the structure OF the
American character and the squanderlust OF gov
eminent and the acquisitive- lust of the people
the frantic fight, persistent and pervasive to get
something for nothing from somebody, to reap
where there has been strewing, to arrive at the
end of the road without having to suffer the dust
of the travel to attain what is desirable by means
fair or foul, to adopt that philosophy of give-me
or the world-owes- a-living -duty-of
the-government to-feed-me or to get, what we want
by begging or blugeoning, it from somebody else.
There's nowhere to refer such evidences of de-
generacy other than to the inner realm of personal
eharacter.-Julian S. Miller in Charlotte Observer.

BEHIND THE SCENES
IN WASHINGTON
BY RODNEY BUTCHER.

pIoyes, the American Newspaper
Guild and the postal employees all
maintain effective Hobbies here.
The most effective lobbyist, for
peace here is Miss Dorothy Deter
of the Women's international
League. The big Navy and
American Legion lobbyists, with
whom she frequently crosses
swords, call her a dangerous
woman" Her lobbying was chiefly
responsible for the sensational
Senate Munitions investigation
under Senator Nye, and she is
frequent visitor in important Of
fees of the State Department.
A GAINST the labor lobby-and
"a often against the veterans
and the farmers-are pitted the
U. S. Chamber Of Commerce, the
National Association of Manufac-
turers and the American Liberty
League.
The Chamber, as do the other
groups, goes on the theory that
the government should take it's
instructions from bus n s.
which is one reason why it's now
at hot odds with the White House.
Three or four years ago. one
would have had to give the Anti
Saloon League and the Methodist
Board of Temperance. Prohibition
and Public Morals a great deal of
space, not to mention the w. c..
T. U. Repeal wrecked their power
here. however. ..
The women's Hobbies include
the National League of Women
Voters - usually supporting pro-
gressive legislation, the National
Woman's Party-whieh feels its
old women's suffrage fight won't
be won until it's constitutional
amendment to give women full
equal legal rights with men is
adopted, and the Women's Joint
Congressional Committee, repre-
senting Fl women's organizations
and fighting for such things as
the maternity act, child labor
laws and pure food and drug
legislation.
About the best thing that can
be said for the great game of lob.
bying is that anybody can play.
