SUBSTITUTE FOR AAA

When the NRA was declared null and void, there
were numerous politicians and those holding lucra-
tive offices under the setup, VINO said there'll be
substitute" Up to the present time there has
been no plan worked out to take the place of the
defunct NRA.
And the same thing is happening to the triple A.
Several substitutes" have been offered in Con-
gress to ''help the farmer not to grow crops and
livestock but up to the present time no measure
has been devised that would be acceptable, and not
run afoul of the Supreme Court
The time is coming, dear reader, when most tubs
are going to stand on their own bottoms. And this

ADAPTING COMMUNISM

The Soviets in Russia seem to De hedging on
:heir original idea Of pure Communism. They are
discovering from time to time a lot Of things about
It which won't work. or which it least help to make
any real success of the Soviet state impossible.
That business Of an equal wage for every WORKER
which is one of the cardinal principles of Com
nunism, failed completely to create the conditions
which it should and to be the great benefit ex-
pected.
Now the workers are being paid according to
tic countries although the Soviets probably would
deny it is a capitalistic principle.
Now also, according to reports from Russia, they
are swinging back to the idea of family life.
In the beginning of this Communistic experiment
=, was decided to do away with family life, at least
to the extent of Matchmaking the children.
That, however, didn't work we'll at all. 1t Great
ed moral condition. which in spite of the best e.
ports the Soviets could think up, was actually rot
ten.
And so it has been decided to set up the family
again as a national institution. To popularize it
for generation which has more or less run moral
ly wild, Dictator Stain is being officially pictured
by the Soviet press as happy family man and
doting father
This and other developments in Russia suggest
the Soviets are beginning to realize that, if they
actually succeed in making their experiments in
Communism work, it must be adjusted and adapted
to the ideals and principles and practices which
they characterize in derogatOry manner as CAPT
talistc, but which the experience of centuries has
shown to be best adapted to the development Of
the race and the progress of the nations Rock

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
LET'S LOOK AT THE RECORD

Saturday night Senator r. r. (Ramblin Robert)
REYNOLDS stopped long enough in his discussion of
the heroes Of the last war and the victims of the
next to oay tribute to that great American, that
sterling citizen, that friend of the common man,
especially if the common man was guIbe and a
registered Hoter-Huey Long. Quoth Robert in
those hushed tones which ne finds so effective;
There was a voice which was ever raised on
the Senate floor in the interest of the ex-soIdier
but which will not be heard Monday (when the
bonus is passed over the Presidents veto.) It
was a voice which was heard when but Is of US
voted for the adjusted compensation measure. 1t
was a voice which never voted against any mea-
sure designed for the assistance of men who
fought for this country in l9l7-19l8. 1t was a
voice which will be heard no more. 1t the
voice of Huey Long Many things which he ad-
vocated did not meet with my approval, but [
liked him.
Whadda you mean, Robert, many things which
he advocated did not meet with my APPROVAL" It
would have been a great deal more accurate 10
nave aid that most of the things which Huey Long
advocated did meet with the approval of the junior
Senator from North Carolina. The News went to
the trouble Of proving that two years ago. 1t was
established that in the 1888 emergency session of
Congress, Robert and Huey voted alike on 81 out
Of the 6s roll calls in which they both voted. More
over, Robert was one Of the few Senators who vot-
ed for Huey's preposterous share-the-wealth bill,
device to confiscate the private property of in
dividuals for the use Of the politicians.
Roberts liking Of Huey is his own personal bust
ness. Many people liked Huey, but responsible
