BARUCH PUTS BLAME
WHERE IT BELONGS
lHaverhil. Mass. Gazette

When a man as close to the President as
Bernard Barueh is, or has been tells Senate
committee that the governments policies caused
the business recession and when a WASHINGTON
columnist friendly TO the New Deal as Rod
ney butcher writes that the President is listen
ing to the pleas Of business there is reason to
believe that Roosevelt may be needing the evid-
ence of economic fact
The fact is. as Barueh said that New Deal
policies have caused the recession. The United
States. he said. must choose between the profit
system and hope of gain and the collectvist
idea Of governmental regulation and fear of
punishment. II the country chooses the profit
system. he went on forces viii be released that
will hasten business recovery and re-employ-
ment.
These forces are the forces of private enter
prise, forces that private enterprise has no con-
fidence in the future. This lack of confidence is
not peculiar to big business. II is characters
tic OF all business. even the humblest Nobody
dares do anything because nobody knows what
the government will do next. II blows hot and it
blows cold 1t leans to the Left and it leans to
the Right. But It does not blow either hot or
cold long enough or lean LeftWard or RightWard
long enough to enable anybody to determine what
it proposes to do or where it proposes to go. All
it does is inspire uncertainty, and tragic lack
of confidence IS the result OF this uncertainty.
When business confidence is lacking business
activity ceaSes-and have. at the least, a
recession This lack OF confidence is peculiar
10 this country. IL does not e&lSt-Or IL dld not
a few months agO-in Great Britain. There
economic recovery was proceeding as it had
proceeded in this country up TO last summer
There confidence existed. There the govern
ment had faced the alternative defined by Bar
uch and had chosen the profit system. There no
Roosevelt recession prevailed.
There was however. and is. alarm in Bri-
tain and in other parts of the world. There was
alarm at the American situation Bad business
in a county so vast this could infect the whole
world and what had first appeared as local
infection called depression, might be developed
into general nfection-anOther depression.
Roosevelt may be getting this idea, may be
sensing this alarm. The frankness of Baruch
suggests that he is, and the reports OF butcher
suggest that he is doing or planning TO do,
something to change the situation. But he must
do more than butcher indicates he is ready to
do-make the concessions on taxation that busi-
ness asks. This would be helpful and would
constitute progress away from the regulatory
principles of the colectiViSt states.
What is needed, as Baruch pointed out, is
definite and conclusive decision for the profit
system and against collectivism; what is needed
is this decision made promptly and conclusively,
in terms so specific and emphatic that faith
in its permanency will be inspired.

THE COUNTY FAIR
COMES TO AN END

Handicaps of wind and weather could
not prevent the ninth annual Imperial
County Midwinter Fair from being
success
Thousands of Imperial county resi-
dents and hundreds of visitors from 9TH
er parts of the state and nation had,
when the fair closed Sunday a broader
conception Of the foundations upon which
the county's agricultural and business
wealth is laid. Other thousands in other
parts of the country had their eyes di-
rected toward Imperial county by news
paper notices describing the fair.
Success of this years fair should en-
courage the fair board-and all residents
of the community-to make the annual
exposition in future years an even great
er event. First on the list for any pro
gram to this end must be additional
buildings and other facilities to provide
space for exhibitors.
museum might very well be added,
and central county publicity agency
set up to handle not only the fair notices,
but all manner of publicity for Imperial
county.

CONGRESS LOOKS
CLOSELY AT TAXES

Congress action last week on the ad
ministration tax revision measure while
disheartening to the administration, will
be cheering to business as a whole Most
of the cheerfulness will come from the
fact that congress now shows decided
inclination to scrutinize any tax measure
very closely before it passes the bill.
Had congress done the same thing
last session, business would not have
been afflicted with the deadening corpor-
ate surplus tax. 1t begins to look as if
common sense might prevail yet in the
nations tax structure.

DALE
CARNEGIE
Author of How to Win
Friends and Influence
People

Millions OF people have recently
witnessed one of the most out
standing pictures in Hollywood
history. That picutre was made by
the acting of Paul MUM, once
known as NUM- Weisenfreund.
Paul Muni's rise to fame was 10
accident; it was not luck, though
no doubt an element OF luck was
interspersed now and then during
his climb. as it is with all of us.
Faul Mum fought his way up
from the lowest stratum of he
drama, through the scoffing of the
Jealous. by sheer determination of
beth mind and body, by hard
work. and with unquenchable faith
in himself. And at all times, he
kept his gaze fixed on his chosen
star of destiny.
Mum was turned down on his
first chance for Broadway part
because the director couldn't pic
ture him doing the part of an old
man. The next time MUM was call
ed before Il Broadway producer,
again he was discouraged. He look
ed TOO young. he walked TOO young,
his personality was too youthful.
But this time MUM was prepared
for such criticism. And he did his
stuff. He pulled out his makeup
box and in a few moments he gave
a characterization of an old man
that won for him his contract be-
fore he left the office
Paul Mum constitutes a splendid
example for achieving success. He
dreamed, worked, and watched for
opportunities and took advantage of
them when they came his way.
When he went to Hollywood, his
struggles began again. After all,
the stage is the stage, and the
screen is the screen. He was badly
miscast and he tore up his con-
tract. But again he watched, wait
ed and worked. The result: THE
Life of Emile Zola' is acclaimed as
the outstanding talking picture of
1887, and Munis delineation of
Zola, one of the most mastery
characterizations in the history Of
the screen drama.
was particularly struck by a
directors remark on MunIs acting:
MUM gives all that is in him TO
every characterization to which he
assigned
Right there was struck the key
note of Munis success. When he
has a task assigned him he gives
to it all that is in him.
Warden Brophy of Auburn Pri-
son, New York, told me recently
that he could get most out of the
prisoners by appealing to their
hearts. He said, Corporal punish
ment produces a desire for revenge.
Treat a man as a brute and he will
act as a brute
Clerks in leading hotels of the
country are trained to read a
guests name upside down as he
writes it on the register, and TO
call him by name. The manage
ment realizes the tremendous i'm
portance a man places on his
name, and that one of the best
ways to make him feel at home is
to let him hear the sound of his
own name Immediately.

It may not be too apparent at

England gave up Anthony Eden

What will happen if Hitler carries

COroville Mercury Register

Fine thing to let the children in on the
planting of a tree. And when a. NJ. Hengy said
that it wasn't being planted for them SO much,
but for the benefit of their children it must have
given some of them a serious thought. Lord
knows at least plant few trees for our
children. We're doing enough these days on
the other side of the ledger. You see, they are
going to pay off the debt we're piling up so
swiftly and easily.
But to get back to the tree Most of the
children who watched the exercises at Burbank
school will have a sort of proprietary interest
in that tree It's theirs. They saw it planted
1t will have more significance than any other
tree the lot We know for we remember such
a ceremony once back some 40 years and still
remember the tree. Maybe that ceremony will
cause many child to plant his own trees as
he grows older
Only God can make tree as one of the
children recited yesterday. It might well be
added that any child can plant one.

Germany with Italy gone, would

PITTSBURGH, June l0.-Two men
were beaten. q truck fred and nine
men Jailed in the turbulent, To-day
strike Of interstate motor freight
drivers shortly after tentative agree
ment had been reached which both
sides hoped would end the walkout.
Nine men. whom Chief OF Police
John vechter of Wilkins Township
said were pickets from the A. F. of l..
Teamsters' Union, were held on
charges Of halting an automobile and
attacking two occupants.
A truck bound from San Antonio,
Tex, to Pittsburgh, was set afire near
the freight loading docks while eight
men held the driver. Stanley Martin
of San Antonio. and his helper.
Union committeeman expressed sat
isfaction with the tentative agree
men and the full membership of the
Western Pennsylvania Motor Carriers
Association. representing the OPP
orators. was summoned to vote on 1t
late today.
Nothing was said for publicat ton
about a $450,000 damage suit filed
yesterday by the carriers against the
teamsters' organization. charging it
was conspiring to wreck their $5,000,-
600 annual overland freight trucking
business.
One usually authoritative source
said. however, he understood the suit
would be dropped.
Meanwhile. negotiations seeking to
end the strike Of / 400 bakery truck
drivers were reported progressing
smoothly by United States Labor Con.
ciliator John A. Mofitt
The long distance truckers agree
ment was said unoficially to be in
the nature of compromise. One
source said it granted those truckers
working in Pittsburgh q boost of S
cents an hour in pay and provided
for arbitration Of = dispute about
working conditions. Out-of Pittsburgh
workers would continue to operate
under the same pay and working
conditions as in the 1887 contract,
which expired at midnight May 81.
