braced the familiar theme that
before the date of creation was
moved to March 4, 1888, the world
was without form and void" 1t
was a good sample, he said, Of the
political method of accusing
everyone of being terribly wicked
and corrupt who objects to the
many departures of the New Deal
The Roosevelt phrase that the o.;

tort from the former president, who
said the warning was daily practical

Ominous Note

in the Presidents statement
that I'VE have built up new instru-
ments of public power. In the hands
of the peoples government this pow
er is wholesome and proper"
1T just happens" commenced the
former president, that the ideal on
which our government was founded
and heretofore conducted, is that 1t
is dangerous to the people to have
any man possess such powers or to
allow any man TO thus aspire to
personal government, instead of a
government of laws.
THE question is not that these
powers, having been created. and
now in the hands of the good might
be transferred to the hands of the
wicked if the New Deal is not con-
tinued. 1t is that they should never
be possessed by anybody in these
