NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
ESSENCE OF DEMOCRACY"

Truly intriguing is Representative Cooey's eX-
pressed idea as to the Essence of democracy"
Speaking in advocacy of the pending farm con-
troll program and especially its embodiment OF
compulsion, the Tar Heel honorable emphasized
referenda provisions of the house measure Inc
farmers have the right to vote on whether they
wish control he is quoted as saying, and mo one
questions the right of congress to give farmers
this power of determination" Then:
"It is the very essence of democracy because 1t
permits producers to say whether they want to be
regulated by the farm laws congress enacts.'
If that situation represents democracy in its
purest form, those ideals, principles and concep-
tons which the children of Demas have strven
for all these years are completely otf-coor Is 1t
miscon, eption. TO be abandoned as such, that de-
mocracy centers in the Wishes the welfare, the
expression and the government of all the people :
Under the new or Cooley definition democracy Is
essentially group rule II it is the essence OF de-
mocracy for the farmer to express their WISHES,
including a preferment for government subsidies
and benefit payments as a prerequisite Tor what
they ought to do in the name Of sound and proht-
able agricultural practices why should not the
same privileges and right be extended to every
other group in the country? 1t isn't the essence
of democracy. under Mr. Cooleys own definition,
TO practice such discrimination. Under the same
theory, why is the principle of monopoly of price
control in any industry wrong, why is the tariff
as favored by the manufacturing group wrong?
Why should editorial writer's not have the same
privilege of organizing and telling the congress
to pass legislation favorable to them and their in
creased stipend? How much does this principle
Of advanced or essential democracy lack of obtain
ing in the corporate state where political lines and
reactions are obterated and representatives in
the government arc grouped according to economic
cassifcations?
Democracy, in the essence, is government by
groups Then where does the national welfare,
the whole people, the mrepresented consumer

out--GreenSboro News.

goods of other states as much possible. The Ill
innate condition would be one of violent friction
and antagonism among the states, and the question
of weighing the value of the Union would become
a vital one to many of the less favored states.
How it would all work out, only the event itself
could show, but certainly it would not contribute
toward the progress and prosperity Of the nation
as whole or toward making Americans happier
people"
The problems and issues which will be
raised by the enactment of the wages and
hours bill are unquestionably fully as nu-
merous and dangerous as outlined by The
Texas Weekly. Yet radical politicians, I'M
der the whip and spur of organized, active,
vociferous and radical minorities and pres
sure groups composed of various classes OF
people who hope to profit by this act at the
expense of other groups of citizens, such
politicians are determined to enact and
force upon the country this Ubiquitous
measure. Undoubtedly the movement has
some support in sections. of the country
outside the South from groups not to be
classified as political radicals. Competitive
business. industrial and financial reasons
are at the bottom of this support.

average OF about $4,000
The report viii show That 81
per cent of all dwelling units built
in the period Of iS30-37, when
prices Of building materials and
labor averaged less than at pres
ent, cost $4,000 or more. (RcoSe-
welt makes n moderate estimate
Of 5000 per unit in the boom
which me administration hopes
Will appear to beat the DEGREES
sion.)
The committees survey will
show tina; there is practically
no shortage in houses costing
$4,000 or more, no considerable
shortage in the range renting be-
tween $50 and $50 a month, but
a great shortage in the range rent
ing from $40 to $50 a month.
This suggests confirmation OF
the Presidents idea that prices
and rents of new dwellings must
be driven we'll below present lev
els if any important results are
to be achieved.
The National Housing Commit
tee, of which Monsignor John A.
Ryan is chairman, is composed OF
induStrialiStS, labor leaders and
others Of national prominence.
Findings indicate that the mid
dle-inccme groups which buy av-
erage, modest homes have not
emerged from the depression as
well, proportionately, as the high
er income groups and the very low
income groups.
Some housing experts think that
raising the inSurable limit on FLA
loans from 30 to 90 per cent will
be no great stimulus to home
building. One reason is that this
raises the carrying charge load,
offsetting the half-of-one per cent
reduction in the FILA rate. Size
of the monthly payment, FILA has
found, has been the chief deter
rent to would-be home-ownerS.

WHAT DOES THE SOUTH THINK OF THIS?

Let some of its members have their way and con-
gress will pass a farm benefit mesh of measures
which may cost the people of this country billion
dollars.
And should such happen, instead of taxes being
reduced taxes will be raised
What is to be the attitude of the South toward
such contingency?
Its cotton crop is the most important element In
the proposed agricultural relief bill.
The greater part of whatever the legislation may
cost the government will be allotted to the cotton
farmers.
Are they willing to see congress appropriate Tor
their sef-interest such vast indemntieS and subsi-
dies as that the burden of taxation must be the
more heavily pressed down against the American
people and thus in the end, help to destroy the
very end for which the relief is designed
For, after all, we must get our eyes open to the
sure and relentless fact that there is no magic in
vested in the federal government by which 1t can
put money in one mans pocket without taking its
equivalent out of the pocket of some other man.
Nor with all of the imaginary almightiness which
q large part of the public seems to think the gov
eminent possesses it has developed no legerdemam
by means of which either the government itself or
those who are governed by it can have their cake
and eat it too.-Charlotte Observer.

w pears to vary as TO how much
Of the potential l6 billion dollar
housing boom suggested by RooSc-
Welt actually can be realized.
The problem of reducing build
ing material and labor costs, which
the President will tackle in prom
ised conferences with industry,
labor and finance, and which he
says must be met if the proposed
boom is to succeed, Is very far
from solved.
The effectiveness OF proposed
changes in the Federal Housing
Administration law. although CAL
culated to make housing invest
ment slightly more attractive, also
S questioned.
Some experts believe that early
next year the pressure of insur-
ance company and mutual savings
bank funds yearning for invest
ment will begin to flood into the
housing field, regardless Of admin
iStration moves.
Others suspect that the. Strike
of capital" will balk the Roosevelt
effort until the administration
makes various concessions to Wall
Street or finally defieS reluctant
private capital and undertakes 70
launch a huge houSe-building pro-
gram Of its own.
Finally, there appears TO be
much doubt as to just how large
4 consumer market there is for
new housing and just how much
potential buyers or renters can af-
lord to pay.
The National Housing Commit
tee report will show that the
number of families which can
afford to pay $50 month for rent
is now about third as large as
the number in 1929, when it was
figured at about 100000 non
farm families. (Roughly, an in

Naturally, his unftneSs for the

full mess of his administration.
