Rock efeller, all must admit that he was a public character whose repute spread around the globe. Few can state offhand who was Vice-President with MT. Hayes or even with President Wilson. Not one in a thousand knows who was Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States in 1900 Every one knew who was referred to when the papers stated that John D. was dead, and the fact that he had long been in retirement did not dim his celebrity.

The Washington News Letter

Without expressing an oplnlon as to who was right and who was wrong, it is a fact of not very re- mote history that the Supreme Court dropped monkey wrench into the Administration machin- cry a while ago, when the MIRA and allied projects were set aside as unconstitutional. Within the recent past, the Court has valid ated the Security Act, putting its ok. on job insurance and old age pensions, job insurance having a close shave at 5 to 4, and old age pensions making a better show ing at 2 to 2 Although the speci fic measures passed upon are im- portant in themselves, the main point 10 be noted is that the Court it is said, has come to take broader view of what is called the general welfare provisions of the Constitution. Ii would be wrong to assume that the Court has hedged because of the attacks made upon it. Every tub must stand on it's own bottom, and the same is true of trials at law. T. praise the Court for following the course known as falling into l:ne is doubtful and unwarranted compliment Its latest decision undoubtedly was governed by the law that applied to the particular point under consideration There should be assurance for all in the circumstance that the Supreme Court upholds one administrative measure today and throws anoth- CT down tomorrow. Consistency and safety reside in the fact that the highest judicial tribunal in the land can deny another branch of the government support in one instance, and come forward with a ready support in another, If the Law and the facts are n. the same in both.

An American
You Should
Know
Michael McDermott's
Office One of
Busiest.
BY DELLA PYNCHON.

AEL JAMES McDER-
M MOTT, sffectionately dubbed
vi Mack" by his host of friends,
heads the Department Of
States Division of Current Informa-
ton. McDermott has served under the
regimes of Secretaries Bainbridge
Colby, Frank B. Kellogg. Charles
Evans Hughes, Cordell Hull.
He knows what the press wants,
knows where to get it, what can be
used and what cannot from long ex-
perience. An Irishman from Peabody,
Mass, he handles his delicate job
| with true Irish zest and tact. His
white hair fairly bristles with energy.
His smile is engaging. His eyes, blue
and merry, miss little.
In the present state of international
crisis, he is perhaps the most inpor-
tant press officer in Washington out
side of the White House. His office
hulges with eager news reporters.
He certainly does not try to doni-
nate the press, give out biased propa-
ganda, despite the implications con-
tanned in recent Chicago newspaper
to the effect that their Washington
correspondents are alone "undomi-
mated" McDermott has an enviable
reputation of saying no more than he
should opportunely. He interprets Sec
retary Hulls official viewpoint fairly,
plays ball with the press, who in turn
never violate his confidence. Sur
rounded by history in the making. he
has the simple informal manner that
real people always have He has had
over the years an affinity for being
present during historic crises.
Washington saw him first in 1917
pointing for naval war service. Fate
detoured him. He was delegated to
the White House to work with Joseph
Tumulty on the secretariat for several
months. He took an examination in
the War Department, went overseas,
with all his war tools, destination un-
known, landed in the American
section of the Supreme War Council.
AS secretary to Gen. Bliss he was on
hand when the treaty of Versailles was
signed in Paris. became secretary to
Elihu Root at The Hague, came to the
State Department in 1920
McDermott's side expeditions have
been dramatic. The biggest press story
he ever had to handle was in 1928.
The White House borrowed him to
work with Judson C. Welliver on Presi-
dent Harding's ill-fated Alaskan trip.
He spent three days without sleep at
San Francisco Hotel, where President
Harding died, flashing the tragic news
to the world There was plenty of ex-
element at the famous Pan-American
Conference that McDermott attended
in 1923; much to remember Witness
ing the signing of the Kellogg BRAND
peace pact.
As to hobbies-Mr McDermott says
he has none. He is waiting for his son
Mickey" aged 4. to grow up so that
they can enjoy some together.

A Nuisance Answer
Earnest Question Capital Gains Tax Draws
Presidential Slap.

trade cycle. Th country knows that
it Is seeing an unparalleled example
OF a Government-made depression,
brought about by short-sightednes
bad Judgment, ineptitude. and policy
which, starting out to balance pros
perity, ended by unbalancing recovery.
How the Government made this
depression has been sketched in this
column before. Beginning in spring,
1887. the Treasury initiated serious
attempt to balance the budget.
The Treasury contracted spending
to degree which the public did not
notice, so that, beginning with the
third quarter of this year, it not only
added nothing more to the purchasing
power of the people. but was with
drawing several hundred millions in
excess Of expenditure.
Having added about four billion dol
lars to the purchasing power OF the
Nation in 1885, beginning with June
of this year it began reducing the
national debt at the pace OF about
a billion year.
So far. SO good. But apparently
without the slightest attention to what
the Treasury was doing, the Federal
Reserve Board, embarking on a della
tionary policy of its own, raised the
reserve requirements Of the banks up
to the limit of the law and sterilized
about billion and half of gold.
All this is typical of the behavior
OF the New Deal There is no quarrel
about intentions. 1t might have been
desirable to do something about an
incipient boom in the spring of 1887,
under the formula of ironing out the
peaks and valleys of the trade cycle.
But. as so often, what was done was
done without adequate thought, with
out consideration Of consequences, by
inept means and in a pernicious
hurry.
The effect Of this policy would, Of
course, have been less radical II the
body to which the cure was admin
istered had not been weakened by
four years of rough treatment. It is
now apparent to all but the willful
that the policies of the New Deal
have been depriving the economic
body Of its powers of resistance.
Inside the capitalistic, or a semi
capitalistic. system, the demand for
reversal of the tax policy is not made
in the interest of certain selfish,
| wealthy groups, but in the interests
Of functioning economy The un-
distributed profits tax is much liked
by stockholders. They get-for the
time being-higher dividends. But 1t
works to prevent the small and middle
sized industries from capitalizing
themselves.
This column has no doubt that the
Government is at this moment weigh
ing carefully sensible and necessary
measures to be taken. Why, then,
while he wait for reasonable and
reassuring word. must we get one
which insults the intelligence?

piled by open insinuation that the
public concern over New Deal financial
and taxation policy emanates solely
from selfish interests.
Mr.. Roosevelt knows that this Is
not true. Mr. Roosevelt knows that
reconsideration Of policy Is being
demanded not in order to favor the
wealthy but in order to recreate
or to save the jobs of millions of
people.
This column, which was the first, I
believe, to call attention candidly to
the realities Of a brutal situation did
it in no carping spirit, but as an appeal
to realism and cooperation.
This is no time-if there ever was
one-to emphasize contrast or con-
| f1ict Of interests between classes.
For the tenth consecutive time the
business index of the last week shows
a sharp decline.
In. Gary, Ind, steel workers are
employed for only three days week;
| in many Pittsburgh plants for only
| days. Some steel plants have shut
down.. Freight car loadings for the
week Of October % were less than for
the corresponding week of 1886 by
5.4 per cent.
1t is obviously only a question Of
| time before the effect of this trend in
business must be felt in the purchasing
power Of the people.
Unless this development is arrested
quickly and effectively. We may say
good by to the social objectives of the
New Deal.
