Back From Exile.

Undoubtedly in what he means to be
interpreted as the spirit of honorable
amends and fair play, Prime Minister
Baldwin has recalled Sir Samuel Hoare
from political exile and restored him to
cabinet rank as first lord of the admi-
ralty, in succession to Viscount Monsell,
resigned. Thus is rehabilitated the
statesman who fell from grace as for
eign secretary last Winter in expistion
of his inglorious role in the Hoare-Laval
deal to abandon Ethiopia to Mussolini
before he had conquered it. Sir Samuels
reinstatement will doubtless strike the
British public and the outside world as
an act of elementary justice on Mr..
BaldwinS part, for opinion at the time
was widespread that the foreign secre-
tarys action, though he was made the
scapegoat for it, could, in fact, hardly
have been taken without the knowledge
and consent of his superiors in Downing
Street British League devotees may
find it impossible ever to forgive Sir
Samuel for his part in the notorious
scheme, but Mr.. Baldwin now evidently
feels himself strongly enough intrenched
in Parliament and in the country to in
vite aggrieved Geneva adherents to make
the best of the situation.
Of vastly greater importance than the
personal aspects of Hoare's re-entry into
the cabinet picture is its significance
from the standpoint of foreign policy.
1t seems to imply among other things
not only the withdrawal of British naval
reinforcements in the Mediterranean,
but an early accord with Italy in that
region and contiguous Northern Africa
1t also suggests the probability either of
lifting League sanctions or permitting
them to fade quietly out of existence.
Some commentators also discover in the
Hoare appointment to the admiralty
some indication of an attempt to re-
establish the "Stresa front" for stabili-
zation of the Western and Central Euro
pean situation, coincident with efforts
to bring Germany into a peaceful reor-
ganization scheme.
Looking beyond the purely interna-
tional earmarks of Sir Samuels return
to the government, London politicians
foreshadow even greater honors and
responsibilities for him in days to come.
Specializing on the probability that Mr..
Baldwin will retire from Office after
King Edwards coronation next year,
long-range prognosticators foresee Neville
Chamberlain as his successor, With
Sir Samuel Hoare replacing the latter
as chancellor of the exchequer. The
rehabilitated minister, because of his
eminent background in the law, in Parlia-
ment and in government posts, is himself
regarded as future timber for the prime
ministership. If any such career as thus
outlined really awaits him, Hoare will
have proved an extraordinary example of
recovery from political vicissitudes which
six months ago seemed wholly destruc-
tive of any hopes he might cherish for
remaining factor in British public life.

From time to time austerity in the
executive branch of the United States
Government has been relieved by the
Vice President, who, even though not
called upon for many direct assertions
of authority, usually learns to excel in

With each model some improvement
upon the original was made. one of the
most important having been suggested
by Samuel H. Walker, a captain of Texas
rangers. Indeed, that particular model
was known as, the Walker-Colt revolver.
When the California gold rush began,
the revolver was carried farther West,
playing an increasingly important part
in protecting Americans from their In
dian and other enemies. OF course, it
was inevitable that Americans should
use their six-shooters on each other, too.
The pony express was started and the
mail stage lines, and with every step of
the winning of the West the Colt
revolver kept pace.
That was 100 years ago and today
the West presents a different picture.
But there still are plenty of six-shooters
there and they are not all in Holly
wood or on motion picture wild West
show location. Particularly in the South
west, the cattleman, the sheepman, the
oil man and nearly every other man

I "cash on the barrel head" Investors
clamored to let the New Deal take their
money for spending on work-relief and
on the soldiers bonus. They were will

as long as 18 years at a cost OF 234 per
cent interest each.
Then what is the other recovery
| theory?
It is that private business, if assured
| that government would get out of the
way, would be in the market for all OF
the investment funds that the Federal
| Government is being offered. With those
! funds, so the theory is, industry would
build up its plant and start an expansion
program broad enough to absorb the
country's unemployed quickly.
The very spending program that Harry
| Hopkins is operating for the purpose
of generating recovery really is holding
back the sort of sound recovery that
will give jobs in private industry. Such
| Is the anti-New Deal argument.
Unemployed of the country find them
selves in the middle of the argument.
The New Deal thinks that their en-
larged purchasing power is necessary If
the country is going to pull itself out
of the depression. The New Deals op-
ponents think that, by temporarily
economizing on the amount of relief
given to the unemployed, private in
dustry will be assured of sound govern
ment credit and will venture again in
way to open up jobs in industry for
those now out of work.
Voters have the task of determining
which view they prefer to accept.
