Judgment, the policy Of condem
ming everything the opposition
party does, has never produced
better government. Nor am ]
one Of those VIII believes that
the Republican party has a
corner on patriotism and int Iii
gence. We should go into the
campaign prepared to be as fair
in conceding the good points OF
the opposition as we are courage
GUS to point out what we con
slider its errors.
But do condemn half
baked legislation, maladminis-
tratiOn and the dangerous short
outs to permanent change at
tempted in the name of emer-
gency.
The Administration has pre-
scented no permanent solution
Of our major problems. On
the contrary it has created
many new problems and its
gross decentralization of
power reflects either ignorance
or indifferen in regard to
our Federal system Of govern
ment. All this in my judgment
Is actually delaying the return
Of prosperity.
Little Consideration
The Washington times., 1936-01-30
For Toll of Millions

Unfortunately, now as always,
there are people today calling
themselves liberal who regard any
suggestion of economy as reac-
tionary.
They seem to think willingness
to throw other peoples money
around without any consideration
of value received IS a peculiar
sign of a pure heart. They show
too little consideration for the
toll which millions of American
men and women will have to un-
dergo in order to pay off the
debt so gaily incurred. Already
the average family spends one
fourth of it's income for taxes,
whether the family knows it or
not.
It will take much more than
that to pay the bill which pOlit-
icaI MASTERS have contracted in
the American peoples name.
Those in power responsible for
this reckless extravaganza are
not liberals. They are more
nearly benighted reactiOnaries.
When the record of the Admin
istration is challenged their only
answer is, What would you do"
That begs the question. Their
program is not only ineffective,
it is destructive of the American
system. In the face of that fact,
no reasonable citizen should ask
us what to do. The American
people propose to solve their prob
lens under the American system.

Of Unkept Promises

Nor is the cry Of Tory" suffi-
Gent answer to those who ques-
ton their decisions. If I know
nv fellow Kansans, and they are
a good cross-section of America,
they do not approve anything
smacking of return to a Sys-
TEN of exploitation of the many
by the few. Nor do they want
to go floating aloft in strato-
spheric balloon of unkept prom
ises. They think the alphabet
has been overworked. They be-
lieve it is time to use simple
addition and subtraction.
They want neither reaction
on the one hand nor radicalism
on the other. Let those who
insist on the alphabet remem-
Der that America was built
by energy, ambition and en-
thusiaSm, by courage, Charac-
ter and common sense.
The choice ahead of the Amer
lean people is not whether to
keep on with the mistakes Of the
So-called New Deal or return to
the mistakes of the old order.
The old order belongs to the
past, but sound American prin-
ciples persist. The hands of the
clock of political destiny move
forward, not backward. But they
must turn at a steady, orderly
pace. We have had too much
palaver about old deals and new.
Performance, to me, counts for
more than phrases.

contrast, the four months follow

marked by a drop in industrial
production and employment
equalled only by our greatest
panicS of the past.
What our nation really needs
today is better housekeeping. Our
women could show the way. They

Carl Sandburg, the silver haired
poet with the sonorous voice, took his
guitar and a sheaf of poems, old and
new, out to Roosevelt High School last
night for a program that interspersed
humor and criticism. music and

Minus his black flowing tie of earlier
days, he appeared in a plain business
suit, spoke in measured phrases, sway
ing rhythmically from side to side.

With that as offense against those
still critical of the free verse form, he
began a recital of such poems as jazz

whose rhythm represented jazz. and

Sandburg handled his words as

nounced them as though he were try

'interefered" was 'in-ter-feer-ed.
After reading some of his older
poems he presented sketches from
THE People-Yes," his longest poetic
work, which is to be published during
the coming Summer.
Then he took up his guitar and
offered selections from the only book
of his he knows is "great"

those of today.

ROBERTS URGED
FOR PROSECUTOR
Mid City Citizens Back Him
to Succeed Prettyman
in D. C. Post.

The Mid City Citizens Association
last night recommended that Peoples
Counsel william A. Roberts be given
serious consideration" as q successor
to Corporation Counsel e. Barrett
Prettyman, whose resignation becomes
effective March IS. :.
The group adopted q resolution
praising the work of both Roberts and
Prettyman, and expressing regret over
the latter's decision to resign his post.
The citizens asked that only those who
are members of the District bar and
have been actively engaged In law
practice in Washington for at least
five years be considered for the post.
The association Endorsed the program
OF street safety inaugurated by the
American Automobile Association,
asked proper and safe entrances be
constructed at all parking lots and
demanded more rigid enforcement OF
all traffic regulations.
The efforts of the Board Of Trade
to secure restoration Of funds in the
Districts 1887 supply bill for two
aerial fire trucks, one pumping engine,
one hose wagon and Is additional
firemen, was indorsed.
In another resolution, the association
expressed agreement with the pro-
posed amendments to the coming regu-
lations designed to eliminate the con-
sent provision requirements. The
group also requested that in the future
no gas stations be constructed in the
District until the proposed sites have
been approved by the Zoning Com
mission, the Fine Arts Commission
and the National Capital Park and
Planning Commission.
A complete survey by the Public
Utilities Commission as to the pur-
chase price OF the Washington Rapid
Transit Co., as ascertained by the
Capital Transit Co., was requested in
a resolution, which also urged adop-
ton OF token fare and 81 pass
system on all street cars and busses.
Two bills pending in Congress were
approved: one providing for regula-
ton of display of American flags on all
Federal and District government
buildings, the other providing for

DR.. Ruffin then reminded the Com
missioners they had a responsibility
in the health situation.
II agree" said Hazen, "and we have
been with you. We are with you and
will continue to be with you."
Hazen said the Commissioners could
not comply with the request Of the
group to send new supplemental ap-
propriations to the Budget Bureau,
adding that was not necessary. He
explained that the Commissioners
original estimates were still before the
bureau. Later he agreed the Com
missioners would send the resolutions
of the group to the bureau with q
strong written Endorsement and that
he would accompany the physicians
and civic leaders there when an ap-
pointment could be made.
To Petition Senate.
The session also revealed plans OF
the petitioning groups to petition the
District subcommittee of the Senate
Appropriations Subcommittee to add
the deleted health items to the Dis
trict budget when that body acts on
the 1887 estimates.
Considerable importance was at
tached to the report that Acting Chair
man Blanton of the District Subcom-
mittee of the House Appropriations
Committee would consider sympathet-
ically any supplemental public health
items approved by the Budget Bu-
reau. The petition presented to the
Commissioners, after reciting the facts
gathered by the medical groups, de-
clared:
