F. D. R. AT LITTLE ROCK

In the opening speech of his mon
political" tour at Little Rock, Mr..
Roosevelt found it impossible to re-
strict himself to the confines of a
historical speech, as advertised. He
used history merely as a springboard
to dive into the role the Federal Gov
ernment should or should not play
in the concerns of American citizens.
BY numerous acts of his Administra-
tiOn, Mr.. Roosevelt has proceeded on
the assumption that the United
States has become a Federal empire.
There will be sharp disagreement
with his statement that the Govern
ment is commencing to solve" the
problems that have arisen. Mr..
Roosevelt's major attempts to solve
them have failed to pass the crusiaI
test Of the Constitution and the Su-
preme Court. The keystone Of his
arch-the N. r. A.-was outlawed by
vote.
Short of changing the Constitution
itself, there is no chance for the
President to follow the course he
upon early in 1933.-St.

MR.. MOLEY'S SURPRISE

This Mr.. Raymond Moley, bosom
friend of President Roosevelt and
first soOthsayer, or brain truster. in
the early months of the Roosevelt
reign. spoke in New York the other
day. cautiously criticized the New
Deal and referred to clumsy admin
istratiOn."
A slight admixture of horse sense
with super-knowledge would have
told Mr.. Moley that. first Of all, the
New Deal to succeed had TO buy Con-
gress, that Congressman first OF all
looked out for reelection, and that
what Congressman needed in their
business is experts in herding vot-
ers. not experts in administering re-
lief choosing projects" employing
engineers and the like.
OF course administration" is
clumsy" OF course 1t is wasteful.
The first duty Of 865.000 persons on
the Federal pay rolls 100000 add
ed the last three years. is to see that
they stay on the pay rolls and to do
that they must see that their Con-
gressmen control the conventions
and get the votes in the primaries.
The New Dealers have carefully
guarded against the placing of the
New Deal jobs in the Civil Service.
Efficient. economical, able admin
istration of the New Deal program

eEoReIA PRAIsE FoR LANDON

In nominating Governor Alt NJ,
Landon Of Kansas for President the
Republicans have made splendid
choice. He goes before the people
with clear-cut policies and principles
and a record OF achievement in his
own state that challenges scrutiny.
That he has given Kansas a high
grade business-like administration,
his friends and neighbors, who
should be the best judges, are testi-
flying IN chorus that has resounded
throughout the nation. To all those,
regardless Of party affiliations, who
believe that Il Is time to call a halt
on the extravagant government poll
cies, which have plunged the country
far deeper into debt than ever before
in its history and have caused the
nation to drift dangerously near the
yawning chasm Of despotism, the
Republicans are Offering the oppOr-
tunity to support man who is the
very antithesis of the theorists in
control of the shaping OF affairs in
Washington.
In the event that Landon should
be elected, it is safe to say that he
would not sponsor any such wild
projects as the Florida ship canal,
the PassamaquOddy embarrassing
proposal in Maine or the various un-
constitutional measures which have
been "plowed under" by the Su-
preme Court. Governor Landon has
the reputation Of being
a sound thinker. who has freed his
state from Indebtedness, along with
a progressive administration, and !
has shown himself to be a real friend |
of the taxpayers, thousands of whom |
are anxious to see him try his hand !
At guiding the affairs Of the national |
government. There is a strongly ap-
parent need at this crucial stage in /
the nations history for a business
man of the Landon type to supplant
The dreamers and theorists who have
iailed to Danish unemployment after
,addling burden of debt and taxa
