Gen. johnson Saws

WASHINGTON, Feb. 11-This column discussed
w few days ago the paradox of the automobile
industry as an opponent of the New Deal-seeing
that the New Deal has saved and restored it 10
plethoric earnings.
But that is no greater wonder than why Mr.
Hearst should get out his snckerSnee.
One great prop to the Hearst fortunes is the
Homestake Mne-the greatest gold mine in the
world
II you were manufacturer producing widgets On
o competitive basis at 20 cents per widget and one
DAY some good fairy told you that from the next
day onward she would pay IS cents each for all the
wdgets you could make by running night and day
you wouldn't feel impelled to SINCE her wings batter
out her brains with bludgeon, or use any other
form of uncontrolled mayhem--wcud you?
But that is exactly what this Administration did
for Mr. Hearst when it devalued the gold dollar It
increased his income from that mine by an amount
hard to measure but very great, and it lifted the
capital value of his investment there as if by magic
and to a fantastcal degree. 1t probably saved
large part of his fortune
Nobody can trace this magic to something that
happened not because of the New Deal but in spite
of it. 1t traces directly to the New Deal exactly az
the prosperity of the automobile industry does.
II the comeback is: Regardless of these great
benefits, oppose the New Deal on principle rather
than for profit the appropriate is inelegantly
but quite accurately;
"Horsefeathers."

Kitchener's Greatness Doubted

feeling that his death coming when it did and amid
such heroic mystery fortunate break for the

on with the war! What were you saying about the

Mr.. Lloyd George, who was so hard to find that
only one Journalist able to interview him during
the war, is less elusive now. The way to open him
up is to say that you thinking of writing some
thing about his books But that he is easily

Times Books

I TNDER the somewhat imposing title "The His
~ tory of the Philosophy of Medicine" Dr. Louis
Alvin Turley of the University CT Oklahoma Medi-
cal School has produced a brochure published by
the university's press at Norman, Okla
In 1t he traces the difficulties mankind has faced
IN development of medicine to its present status and
blames retardation the failure to divorce patho-
ogy from religious influences
He doesn't go into the divorce of specialization
from ethics which has brought high fees and made
the medical profession as dislked by some persons
as the old family doctor was formerly loved
nR TURLEY admires the early Greeks and
IL their open-minded approach to medical prob
lens, as he despses the early Christians and Jews
Tor appealing to God to help in these matters.
Pointing out that the pagan Greek hospitals
were better than those in the so-called Dark Ages
the author traces the revival of learning and med-
cine, through the Church, to the Renaissance and
down to today.
The highlght of the doctors philosophy is the
warning he gives of the recurring danger Of being
dogmatic in fields that never be closed to new
knowledge.

for man in that job is often called upon to throw
pound of steak and spot of into the visiting
f1remen from over the seas. But Mr.. Lloyd George
has been collecting since.
He has written several books containing inforna-
ton which no other writer could dig of the files
and If you move up to him today and ask him for
fifteen hundred words of literature he will look you
dead in the eye and ask you dollar word without
blush, and accept it without bushing either

commercial purposes would make any Sef-respecting
cub reporter break down and weep He can pick up
from $3.50 to $500 whenever he puts his name to
piece so the temptation to write them fast and also
loose can be understood.
The last good one he wrote was full swing at
Adolf Hitler, and turn of political events while
later turned this INTO error for he could have
moved back into the Cabinet except for that,
little later he wrote sticky, Syrupy mess about
the late Lord Kitchener in which he fumbled
around In his system for reason to admire the
wooden Earl, and finding none went ahead to adj
mlre him anyway. 1t was pretty bad copy, but it
isn't considered polite in England to challenge the
grandeur of any one who has been elected to niche

Critical Diplomats

EOREIGN diplomats are still
L critical of Cordel Hull for
giving a left-handed apology to
the Persian Minister, who was
handcuffed by Maryland police
for speeding.
They say that the Secretary of
State, most God-fearing and
upright gentleman, should cast
the mote from his own eye before
criticising foreign diplomats re-
garding their driving.
Shortly before the Persian Min
lister was arrested for speeding,
the automobile used by George A.
Gordon, counselor of the Ameri-
man Embassy in Rio de Janeiro,
ran over and killed a Brazilian
physician.
Mr.. Gordon was not in the car
when the accident happened, the
car being driven by his chauffeur.
But, suggests the Diplomatic
Corps, the Persian Minister'S car
also was driven by a chauffeur.
Instead of Handwriting Mr.. Cor
don, the Brazilian government
suppressed newspaper accounts of
the story, and shortly afterward
he was promoted to the American
Minister to Haiti.

Initiation Worries

IF you are worried about cur
L rency initiation during this
session of Congress, here are two
fairly positive trends to keep in
mind
l. Some kind of a greenback
bill is almost sure to pass the
House and probably will get by
the Senate.
z. Almost any kind of an in
flationary measure will be vetoed
by the President. His veto will be
sustained.
Therefore, since one from one
still leaves zero-even in these
topsy-turvy days of the New Deal
there will be no initiation. This
does not mean, however, that it
will not be debated back and
forth perhaps more than any
other question.

w William Edgar Borah has
one of the toughest hides, po-
htically, in the Senate. But it

finally goaded him into entering

A few weeks ago Senator Borah

accused of being too old" of
having cold feet" of mot being
a serious contender" of never
going through with what he
started"
This is old stuff to Senator
Borah. But this time it got un-
der his usually Indifferent skin.
He sent word to Ohio hackers
that he had changed his mind.
Later, Mr.. Borah encountered
