NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE

I Governor Landon, who once expressed his dis
approval of federal deposit insurance, has sup
porter in U. " Wilcox writing in the September
| American Mercury magazine, who declares thai
| the FDIC is "just another New Deal myth that has
IuIIed millions of depositors into false security
| Mr. Wilcox attacks the theory of deposit insur-
ance as unsound; declares it but an effort of
the administration to get grip on the credit ma
chinery of the nation; affirms that it has not
stopped runs on banks and that it is unjust to the
banks which pay disproportionate share of the
cost To quote him: o'.. So"
an other words, the bankers-those creatures
Of entrenched greed'-were to be soundly shelled
in their dugouts. What issued from the trownlng
muzzle, however, not barrage of shrapnel
and high explosve-but dud For, sad to relate,
the theory of federal bank deposit guarantees has
proved itself to be economically unsound and I'M
possible of large scale application.
THE promised guarantee is only partial and Is
paid for in the main by banks which do not proht
from it's provisions. The whole scheme has suosti-
tuted reliance on federal mechanisms for individual
brains and corporate responsibility; its only tang-
BILE substance is the hold it exercises the man.
agement of banking.
THE conclusion to be drawn is extremely obvl-
Gus. The new rules and regulations are not guar
anees of financial security. Rather they are being
used as means by which the Roosevelt bureaucra-
cy hopes to seize absolute control of the banks as
one further and important step toward the creation
of the New Deal totalitaran state"
These may be the views of Mr. Landon. They
were his views when he addressed convention of
bankers in 1888. If they are now his he should say
so in some of his speeches. But he will hardly do
that No act of the administration has been more
popular than the federal deposit insurance law. Mr.
Wilcox may claim that it has not stopped runs on
banks but the public point to the number of bank
failures during three Republican administrations
that preceded that of Mr.. Roosevelt and the few
failures since the insurance law was enacted and
ask what stopped the failures and runs
We may go farther and say that if Governor
Landon should be elected president he will not dare
lay his hand on the FDIC. He could do nothing
that would more quickly start the country back to
the doleful days of Harding, Coolidge and Hoover

Here is some worthwhile advice to motorists: AS
soon as darkness descends, slow down.
In spite of the fact that the bulk of are OPP
Grated almost entirely during the day, well over
half of all the fatal accidents last year occurred
night.
Sixty-nine per cent of the victims were pedes-
TRANS.
And the death rate for the evening rush hours
was over 100 per cent greater in winter than in
summer, due to darkness
Unconsciousy or otherwise, many motorists
chronically "oyerdrive their headlights"-that is,
they could not bring their cars to a stop within
the illuminated distance before them
More powerful lights are no cure for this; they
produce glare, potent case of head-on crashes
and are justly illegal in most states
The pedestrian of course, is not wholly free
from blame ."f
1t has been extensively publieized that one
should always walk the left side of the highway,
facing oncoming traffic, but great many night
walkers apparently haven't heard the news. And
many of them also don't seem to realize that to
walk on dark highway wearing dark clothes is
an invitation to the coroner = 81 E gs'.
Thusly, we need education for the pefestrias as
well for the automobile driver.
But in the meantime, the driver should take
every precaution, and even go to what may seen
ridiculous lengths to operate his car safely.
After all, he is in command of potentially le
thai vehicle that literally kills more than doe
war.

REPORTERS AND LAWYERS AND JUSTICE

Members of the American Bar Association are
recommending a lew-a federal law-that would
reduce the liberties of the press
This is in the name of justice
1t is to prevent what in previous action the
eminent members of this association cheaply called
'hippodromng" by newspapers
We can easily what the gentlemen of the
bar driving at.
Newspaper minorities do sometimes go beyond
proper range in sensationazing of the more
notable criminal cases.
But the journalistic and the publishing profess
sion and business are just as much interested in
seeing justice done and the laws enforced and or
der respected in this country as the American Bar
Association.
The lawyers might, therefore, proftably turn the
focus on themselves.
While they are proposing law that would curb
the liberties of the press and restrict criminal court
reporters to regimented style set by the lawyers
themselves, why should they not also propose law
that would intervene against members of their own
profession getting in the way of proper admin
istration of Justice
The newspapers, we are minded to believe, will
of their volition and by virtue of their organ
lied decision, behave themselves sooner than the
bar association can avail in getting all the lawyers
of the land to confne themselves to proper, just
and legitimate mannerisms in their professional SER
