Washington, Jan. 2.--In the fms
pending struggle over the amount
Of appropriations for federal work.
relief, 1t Is worth noting that exc
tremists on both sides are commits
ted TO certain theories and princi-
Piles which they do not care--or dare
TO express In public.
No one need espouse either exc
treme view. There's plenty Of room
between.
Each fringe Is represented in
Congress, which must decide whetll-
er WPA Is to continue on present
schedules from February to June,
inclusive, at a cost Of $750, 900. 900
or be radically curtailed to a cost
Of perhaps only $500, 000. 900, as sug-
gested by such conservatives as Sem
ator King Of Utah.
The first extreme theory, also
held by certain important admin
istrati0n officials, includes . belief
that the masses" will insist on
getting larger share Of the ma
tional income and that they'll
get II.
Such issues as tariff, gold stand-
ard, and budget-balancing no long,
er count with millions Of "under-
privileged" voters, who are In q po-
sition to raise the devil and impress
their ideas on politicians.
Living Standard Cut Fought
The New Deal has given millions
OF destitute urban unemployed and
poverty-stricken farmers or farm
tenants higher standard Of living
than they ever had before, accord
ing to this point OF view, and IL
would be Just too bad to retreat
from that standard.
Furthermore, such o retreat Is
politically impossible, anyway. Bene-
fits are likely to increase rather
than decrease-widows' pensions
will become common, and union la
Dor will support WPA workers and
other federal beneficiaries In their
fight to avoid a return to starva-
ton levels Of local home relief.
The extreme right wingers see
the picture in much the same out
lines. But whereas the most lib
eral New Dealers think It's all q
very fine thing, this right wing
group feels II Is perfectly terrible
and also great menace.
New vested interests have been
established, according to their
point of view, and millions OF
treasury raiders thinking as one
man will be abetted by most poll
ticians, so their growing strength
must be combated.
Various members Of Congress
holding to this school Of thought
will go on 10 tell you privately that
most WPA workers and farm teri-
ants are shiftless, lazy, and over
paid; that states and towns are able
to take care of them as well as they
deserve; and that they deserve no
better standards OF living than their
own neighbors. who know them best,
are willing to provide.
Furthermore. that there are plen'
ty OF jobs to be had II those on re-
lief will only accept the wages that
are offered. but that WPA has IN
effect set a floor to wages which In
terferes with the operations Of the
labor market.
