"RED RIDER" ATTACK
SET FOR TONIGHT
DR.. Fitzpatrick. in Radio Talk,
to Urge Measure Be
Repealed.

DR.. John r. Fitzpatrick. dean of the
Law School of Columbus University,
will deliver a radio address tonight at
7:30 o'clock from station WMAL in
which he will call on the Washington
public to unite in a demand that the
red rider" be repealed
Fitzpatrick is a former assistant
United States attorney and some years
ago served as counsel for special
House committee investigation Of
crime here. During the hearings, for
mer Representative Blanton, sponsor Of
the red rider" was one of the chief
witnesses and the session was marked
by numerous clashes between FitZpat-
rick and the Texan.
Since Blanton has been defeated for
his seat in the House, Fitzpatrick be-
lieves the time is ripe to remove the
teaching ban from the statutes and
plans tonight to call on the public
to insist that Congress act during the
coming session.
Fitzpatrick does not believe there
will be any difficulty encountered in
finding a new sponsor for the re-
pealer since the defeat of Repre-
sentative Sisson of New York, who
offered the repeal bill at. the last ses-
sion.
His address will be delivered under
the sponsorship of Columbus Uni
versity.

THERE Is unjustified bitterness
among the New Dealers over
DR.. Rexford Guy Tugwell's
= decision to resign from the
Roosevelt administration ip order to
enter the wholesale molasses busi-
ness. Sweetness and light" with q
vengeance.
Tugwells friends and supporters
will feel that he has deserted the lib
which was not only personal vindl-
cation, but mandate for his policies.
His colleagues will regret the fact that
he has left three big jobs unflnished-
the transfer Of his Resettlement Ad-
ministration into the Department OF
Agriculture, the creation of an intel
ligent farm tenant program and the
passage of a new food and drugs act.
The general public will fear that one
of the major targets of the opposition
has allowed himself to be bounded out
of public life by the merciless attacks
of irresponsible partisans.
The truth is much simpler: We, the
people, do not pay our major public
servants enough in money or security
and we do not give them sufficient
support in their appointed tasks. To
serve the American people In public
Office requires long purse and thick
skin.
$4,000 Salary Held Justified.
High official life at Washington Is
played with a high ante: tenure is in
secure; pay is low and apparent public
gratitude almost NIL Tugwell received
$4,000 year for administering a
tremendous job, one phase of which
Observation-Disclosures the prudent ex-
penditure of $3.50, 0,00O, 900 within 18
months Such job, by any standards,
was worth a salary of $4,000 a year
or security of tenure or both. Many a
sinecure OF big business pays two or
three times what the sovereign people
pay to the men of whom it expects
honesty, intelligence, success and a
good show in the form OF a pleasant
home and official entertaining-much
of which is necessary way Of trans
acting public business.
When a man in his early 40s. like
Tugwen, lacks an Independent per-
sonal income and must consider the
needs of his family, he can only en-
brace the numerous official opportuni-
ties for honest graft"-or get out.
Tugwell got out.
So long as he fights for the things
the people need, such a man can ex-
pect little but public hatred and
malice under our form of government
The mass of the people may feel well
disposed toward him, but there are
powerful financial and commercial in
terests which can and do stir up
criticism of the least of his doings.
Few episodes in our recent public life
have been more discreditable than
the publicity campaign to convert a
mildly liberal, shrewd and practical
adviser into a Communist scarecrow.
Tugwells advice to the White House
was sound and conservative; his own
administrative policies were to the
point; but the public was told that
Rex was a Red" and he was even

accused Of plotting q revolution In
order to seize power for himself.
Shrank From Unjust Abuse.
Under constant and ill-tempered
hammering, Tugwell grew restive. He
Is a proud and sensitive man and
when he discovered that his public
activities were invariably distorted
and his words twisted he shrank con-
temptuously from contacts.
Moreover, he shared the defect of
all liberals in that, while he could
generally recognize his enemies, he
could rarely decide who were his
friends. Much of his efforts tended
to frustrate his own adherents, while
his foes enjoyed complete freedom to
gang up on him. He preferred to let
his work speak for itself and avoided
taking personal credit for the things
his organization achieved.
Thus Morris Cooks got the applause
for the drought-control measures
which Tugwell inaugurated last Sum-
mer in the Great Plains. So his re-
settlement achievements in residential
and rural housing were set up as
"yardsticks" rather than as billboards.
Errors Will Be Remembered.
In land which thinks in terms Of
advertising this modesty was self-de-
feating, so much so that his "Tugwell-
town" near Washington could still be
attacked and misrepresented with i'm
punity the very day after Roosevelt
had publicly Endorsed it, while his
newly developed "rammed earth"
house in Alabama and the commercial
success of his agricultural co-opera-
tives in the South failed to receive
more than local attention. Much of
his good work-as in the matter of
wild-life refugees and recreation areas
will be accepted without thought Of
its origin, while his failures-espe-
cially those which he inherited from
other hot-headed administrators-will
be linked to his official memory
Finally, Tugwell's departure adver-
tises the fact that, under the Amer
ican way" we do not adequately
recompense, recognize or support dis
interested public service of high or
der. 1t shows that we are still very
far from being able to command the
services of able men for the long pull
or TO create a tradition of efficient
public service in the interest of the
general welfare. 1t proves how remote
our social system is from that col
lectivism" which Rex Tugwell was so
lavishly accused of fomenting.

w. Taussig supplies the molasses.
Mr.. Taussig. one Of the most inter-
esting personality upthrusts of the de-
preston years, has a finger in most Of
the molasses OF the Western Hemi-
sphere. 1t takes lot of managing, and
DR.. Tugwell joins Mr.. Taussig's Amer
lean Molasses Co, of which the latter
is president. He is vice president Of
the Boston Molasses Co. and his other
interests in this field range down
through New Orleans, Cuoa and Latin
American countries.
He is a writer on economics, a char
ter member Of President Roosevelt's
brain trust, yachtsman, a specialist
in tariff, radio and Latin American
politics; radio electrician, president
of the Islip Literary Society and au-
thor of amusing books, and one of the
most vigorous and authoritative ex-
Founders of managed economy in its
doctrinal aspects. Dr. Tugwell should
find this new association an easy
transition. In January, 1884, Mr..
Taussig said:
'Huey Longs demagoguery about
limiting individual incomes to ST.
10000 a year may appear 10 years
from now to be the mouthings of a
reactionary."
Born in New York, Of old New York
stock, in 1896, he was graduated from
the Stuyvesant High School. AS a
brain-truster he asked and needed no
handicap in the lineup with the
Presidents Harvard team. He knows
his molasses, and he also knows the
books.
He was q radio-electrician in the
war. Engaging in the sugar and
molasses business in Cuba and New
Orleans, he found it a take-off for
his exploration of Latin American tar
ifs, politics and economics. His pub
lished books include The Book of
Radio, Book of Hobbies" and Rum,
Romance and Rebellion" His estate.
