this place it was suggested that if Mr..
Roosevelt were reelected one of his
first moves would be to seize the Su-
preme Court. That was described at
the time as an insult to the President.
***
However, the warning comes now
not from the outside but from the in
side, not from an opponent but from
one of the closest friends of the Presi-
dent, a high official Of the Government.
1t is nearly three weeks since Mr.. Mar
riner Eccles, head of the Federal Re-
serve Board publicity warned of none
tary imitation, urged the vital necessi-
ty of balancing the budget, called for
more and heavied taxes. 1t is hardly
possible to call Mr. Eccles a Tory,
though as matter of fact some of the
wilder worshipers have. Actually Mr..
Eccles was the pioneer New Dealer
of them all. He has not gotten COM
plete credit for it, but in February,
1888, before Mr.. Roosevelt came in
and before Mr.. Eccles had been heard
of outside of Utah, he appeared before
the Senate Finance Committee and
practically outlined the whole New
Deal program.
Since his warning there have been
three important developments-one,
disclosure that the Treasury had
greatly overestimated receipts for this
year, which strengthens the case for
new taxes; second, strong opposition
to new saxes on the part of Senate
and House, as voiced by Chairman
Harrison and Chairman Daughton;
third, complete absence of any purpose
or plan upon the part of either Ex-
ecutive or Congress to reduce expen-
ditures. All of which makes it clear
that nothing will be done to avert an
agreed upon peril unless the Presi-
dent becomes galvanized into the sort
of action he exhibited in 1888, when
he performed the magnificent feat of
cutting the governmental expenditures
nearly billion dollars, nearly all of
which was restored within a year.
In dealing with this business next
week, Mr.. Roosevelt can do one of
two things. He can sugar-coat the sit
uation, present some more rosy but
phony figures, soothe the fears of the
people with more reassuring words,
and let US drift more swiftly and surely
toward the rocks. Or he can courage
ously face the facts and throw his full
force into the effort to regain lost con-
troll of the Federal finances. To achieve
that he will need not only new taxes
but again great cuts in expenses. 1t is
the only way out and it would be ex-
tremely painful to follow. Yet, if he
takes it he will find the country back
of him in a way it has not been yet.
There are few who think he will. 1t
requires too great an effort and is too
dreadfully unpalatable and unpleas-
ant. There is an awful lot of difference
between curtaiing the extravaganza
of your predecessor and curtailing
your own. To lop off lot of Mr.. Hoov-
er's agencies was joy. To lop off his
own, many times more numerous, cost
ly and unnecessary, is like killing his
own children. Apparently he can't
bring himself to do it. 1t would hurt
his pride. Yet he must know the ne
cessity.

No Other Way Out

On the fourteenth of this month-so
he intimated Friday-the President
will send to Congress some further
figures dealing with the Federal finan-
ces for the fiscal year 1937-1938, which
begins July 1. He has to.
1t isn't question of revealing his
relief figure for the year, which, for
perfectly sound reasons, has been
withheld, but of adjusting others so as
to have them bear some relation to
realities. Because the fact is the very
elaborate, optimistic and reassuring
set of figures he sent up in January
literally have been shot to pieces, with
the net result that there is apprehen-
sion and confusion among the financial
officials of the Administration and a
disquieting conflict of view between
them, himself and the fiscal factors
in House and Senate.
***
1t is understatement to say they are
not in accord and it is certainly not
eXaggeration to state that the more
clearheaded among them are dis
turbed. If the President is not he
should be, as there is now real dissent
among his advisers that control of
Federal finances is his most pressing
problem. With debt increased by
$19,0O0,000,000, the result of seven
consecutive years of borrowing to meet
deficits, he told US in January the end
was in sight and recovery of SOL
vency sure in another year. All of
which turns out now to be pure moon
shine.
Extremely bad guesses were made
both as to income and outgo.As with
his Supreme Court message, he seems
to have been nisled as to the basic
facts-in the one case by his Attorney
General, in the other by his Secretary
of the Treasury. The estimated reve-
nue. is going to be some $400,000,000
low; the estimated expenditures from
$500, 100000 to a billion and a half
high, though the latter can't be blamed
on the Treasury. No one, of coure, can
tell exactly about the expenditures,
but it is possible to tell closely
enough to know that that bright Janu-
airy budget message, applauded even
by his critics, has now become absurd.
You can tell closely enough to know
that unless something is done-and
of a. drastic nature-the financial
plight of the nation shortly is going
to be much more perilous.
***
This is said not to alarm unduly, but
because plain statement of the facts
seems called for. Warnings of just
this situation have been given from
time to time in the past four years by
those who distrusted the wisdom Of the
unrestrained spending involved in the
Roosevelt policies, but the only effect
was to infuriate the more violent New
Dealers, cause them to shout Glory,
Tory, Tory" CHATS the New Deal col
lege yelD; to talk of "human rights"
as opposed to property rights" and
otherwise evade the issue. The same
reaction was had year ago when in

The Real Cause


Looking for the real cause of I'M
employment in America? Here's one
answer by New York Newspaper:
at will be found in the $7,OO0,0O0,-
900 a year budget at Washington and
a public debt of $35,OO0,O0O,0OO.
"The man who earns $1,000 a year
must pay out from 1854 to $186 of his
income in taxes.
eff he could spend one-half, even,
of that assessment, there would not be
any unemployment in this country.
He would be able to buy more goods
and the buying of goods creates the
demand which puts men back to
work."
A good place for a sit-down strike
in molasses factory, or where they
manufacture fy-paper. Somebody
certainly would get stuck, and nothing
would please me more than to have it
be John L. Lewis.
~
1t looks like paying the Duke of
Windsor $125,000 a year for not being
king, is similar to what the farmers
are getting for not raising this and
that. Sort of royal AAA.

A scientist says that the world will
last for a trillion years more. So
then there's no use to worry, unless
you wonder what the national debt
will be by that time.
***
About the biggest piece of nonsense
that we've heard in long time was
when one of the ladies of town, and a
staunch Democrat by the way, en-
phatically declared the cause of all
these sit-down strikes was REPUBLI-
CAN PROPAGANDA.
Several years ago the taxpayers
were hollering about the expense Of
the bounties for fox-cat-weasels. So
the lawmakers repealed the law. This
year they hollered because there was
no bounty, and the legislators have re-
placed the law on the statute books.
1t is also said, but not confirmed, that
the prices this time are twice as high
as before-that is, 81 for a wildcat,
So for a fox, and 81 for weasel.
All justices will have to wear
specs" from now on, so that they can
see the clipped ears of the hides upon
which bounty had previously been COL
lected. And the justices will have to
know their animals. When the law
was in effect before, all the red squir-
rels in the county disappeared-and
turned up as weasel hides.
A pair of citizens several years ago
got credit for a quantity of hides
something over twenty-five times, be-
fore being caught.
And there used to be a lot of hunt
ing in West Virginia, and agreements
between West Virginia hunters for
hides.
All of which means the local officials
connected with bounties are going to
need doubly sharpened wits to keep
many of the hunters from skinning the
county's hide and getting bounty on
it. 1t also means that the County
Commissioners will have to levy about
$1,000 this year to cover expenses.
know Of lot of people who would
be glad to pay bounty for legislators
hides.

81 Congressman Are
Watching Wage Bill

New York, Nov. 4-In response
to a letter from the NAACP, a
total of 81 congressman have writ
ten the association hat they will
keep a careful eye on the wages
and hours bill when it comes up
in the House at the special session
of Congress to see that it does not
contain any d~ifferential so far as
Negro workers are concerned.
Replies from congressman are
continuing to reach the A A
and indications are that any at
tempt to enforce a d~ifferential
against Negro workers, either in
wages or hours, will have opposi-
ton.
The NAACP points out that the
wages and hours bill will have a
lasting affect on hundreds of thou
sands of Negro workers in the
South and, Therefore, any attempt
to frame a law fixing sub standard
wages for them should be fought
vigorously.
The wages and hours bill is one
of the main purposes of the spe-
cial session which opens November
18th and the voters at home are
urged to keep in touch with their
congressman, for the bill already
has been passed in the Senate and
the big fight is expected in the

getting, the problems of small con-
sumers, insurance and savings, or
g~anization financing, and elemen-
tary social statistics; a; Contem-
porary Problems. Practical classes
in the college will be supplemented
by motion pictures, forums and lee
lures. The Social Science Faculty
will serve as consultants and ad-
visers to the Institutional staff.
The Children's Institute will in
augerate services providing clinics,
recreational activity, and the nur-
sery school in a scheme designed
to offer greater efficiency in pre-
school education for the children
of underprivileged families. DR..
Horace M. Bond is consultant and
