words Of Paul Rallon there is a
strong feeling that 'all this
maneuvsring of the past few
weeks is a clever and effective
screen for 4 rather coaplete an
announced Reformation Of the
New Deal from hla.'
Mr.. Mallon cites a good friend
of the White House" as authority
for the sta m e n t that
the President has: 1. Definite
" renowned the plan of heavy
government spending to bolster
business and prices; feels that
government spending must be re-
duced and the rudget balanced,
and that price rises must be halt

Court reorganization measure.

government can do more for the
country by returning to two OF

troll Of wages and hours. 4. De-

cies which have failed"
If all this is true, and there Is
certainly abundant evidence to
Justify the guess that it is at
least partly true, the New Deal
is not only undergoing a reforma-
ton but a revolution. This does
not mean that the President has

some of the theories which caused

the opposition of the other party
may have been dropped over
board. At any rate. the theories
detailed by Mr.. Mallon, and held
by other experts in the exciting
political field. are worth thinking
about. Whether or not they are
accurate to any important degree
will be proven by the special
session, and by the regular session
which convenes next January.
