WE ALL PAY

In recent report to stockholders, Wendell L.
Wilkie, president of the Commonwealth and South
ern Corporation observed that the country is grad
ually beginning to realize that the law electric
rates charged in the limited area served by the
IVA are made possible only by additional taxes
paid by people in all parts of the country. He then
added whenever citizen of Tupelo, Miss, turns
on the electric switch everybody in the United
States helps pay his electric bill. This extraordi-
nary situation becomes the difficult to under
stand when it is realized that our operating COM
panies in that area could lower their rates at least
rs per cent below the IVA rates if they were
given the same gifts from the federal treasury as
are given to the Tennessee Valley Authority"
The IVA is described by its hackers as an &C
curate yardstick with which to measure the rates
charged by private electric utilities! IVA is al
most immune from taxes, it has been given tremen-
dous grants of public money; it is permitted to
charge off a large part of capital investment to
flood control and other projects, thus making it APP
pear that its investment in hydroele facilities
is lower than it actually Isl it is given various valu
able services, such as the authority to frank Its
mail without charge by the federal government
And it is entirely free of state supervision or regu

pEBAUcHING THE COURTS

Z The appointment by the president Of two TAM
many politicians to federal district judgeships IN
the southern district of New York is an event
which concerns not merely that district but the
nation The chairman of the judiciary committee
of the New York Bar association says that the COM
mittee asked for an opportunity to submit Names
but was ignored and predicts that ,'the president
will continue to use the bench as bargain counter
for political purposes" To debauch the courts is
consistent not only with the attitude persistehty
shown by the New Deal and the presidei-s toward
the courts; it is consistent with the whole con-
spiraey to break down the American system OF
freedom under law. No more sinister of etfectual
method of making the laws conform to the will OF
dictatorship, to- cheat them of the effects intend
ed by the lawmaking branch of government, to re-
duce that branch to futility, and to absorb all pow
er into the hands of the executive could be found

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
THE SIN OF SUCCESS

We Democrats would be discreet to find some
thing more substantial against Colonel Frank Knox
than that he was some years general manager OF
Hearst newspapers. The Hearst newspapers have
millions on millions of readers and as rule they
are not the ''rich'' people Nor have they monop-
DIV of journalistic villainy. Besides, Mr. Hearst
was mighty good Roosevelt man in the job o.
nominating him in 1882. t..as
Colonel Knox set out as reporter on a small
city newspaper in the northwest. He was born
with no silver spoon in his mouth. He went up and
up. There may be among our newspaper acquan-
tances in South Carolina young men who would
reject handsome offer from Hearst, but we doubt
it.
Five years ago Knox became one of the control
ling owners of The Chicago Daily News, one of the
foremost of American newspapers. He was SOL
der in the Spanish-American war and again was
soldier in the World war. He must be man OF
force, brains.
The sin of Knox is that he has worked to the
top of his profession and been successful. To New
Dealers nothing seems quite so hateful in a man as
the possession of an uncommon amount Of brains
and the achievement of success in this life without
a salary or other help from the United states
treasury. ,I,,.. -.,.-
Next thing we know some demagogpe will be de-

a handsome fortune, whereby he escaped the long,
hard grind that Frank Knox had when he was a

Dan Dickey's Diaphragm

Ever had any experience in

RADIO HAS PUT CRIMP IN PARTY
.,,- ORAT0RY ,.;.-s-Y.
(By BRUCE CATTON)

1t is impossible to look back at the po-
htical conventions without reflecting on
the Tremendous change which the radio
has wrought in American politics. And the
tough part about, it is that politics has not
yet adjusted itself to the change. ... $780,
Time was when a convention was a
place for leather-lunged orators and rapid
fire debate. A days sessions ran from
dawn to dusk and the delegates figuratiye-
ly stripped to the waist, had at ,one, an
other with whatever weapons were handy,
and emerged with an honest feeling that
they actually had come to grips with the:
pressing issues of the day. .. ,.,.i, .&s
But the moment someone slipped a MI
crophone into the convention hall, the pic
ture changed. II, ... size r;.-
First. of all, the old-style orator was
hopelessly crippled. What price, now, the
booming voice, the impassioned gestures,
the hoarse crescendo, the restless pacing
of the platform? On the air they go Tor
Sweeney. .. 80 .ay
The microphone wants voice that IS
soft and well ,modulated, it has no use Tor
gestures, and it absolutely bars lunglng
and pacing. The old-style convention ora
tor compares with the radio variety as
a grand opera singer compares with
crooIer. 80. ..
Nor is that all. The orator nowadays
can newer forget that the delegates IN
'front.' of him are not a thousaHdth part OF
his audience. He cannot talk directly to
them; he must pick every word and every
infection with his great invisible audience
in mind.
Toi try to stampede his convention with
a Cross of Gold speech would be worse
than useless. 1t is the audience outside the
hall that he wants, and it is eternally be-
yond the reach of stampede. ...
And that leads US to another point. I'm
censored debate becomes an almost impos-
sible luxury when the radio is turned on.
Suppose that some outspoken party man
sincerely differs with the program of the
party leaders and desires to take the floor,
to fight it; Bill Borah at Cleveland, for
instance, or a Carter Glass at Philadelphia.
What happens? The entire nation hears
his speech. He Immediately presents the
appearance Of one who is seeking to de
stroT party harmony; indeed, to a certain
extent he actually does destroy i'll
What he could have done with perfect
propriety in the old, pre-microphone days,
has become an almost unthinkable breach
of party loyalty. So, unless he is prepared
to bolt he. keeps quiet. ..,
These are more than surface changes.
They go to the heart Of our political OF
gapization, They mean that we nc, longer
can get the results that we used to get out
of our traditional party machinery.
For a convention that cannot be swayed
by the passionate arguments Of a great
leader, and that cannot indulge in anything
resembling honest debate, is not deiiber-
ativel body in any real sense of the word.
Tl1e radio has given our two great
parties an exceedingly knotty problem to
SOLVED Solve it they must, if democratic
government is to function properly. ,
