News Behind the News
- Roosevelt and Hoover

WASHINGTON - Many observers profess to
detect a similarity between the series Of Roose-
velt conferences with business men - ana labor
leaders - and the Hoover 'stabllization confer
ences" in the l929-3O fall and winter
One of several differences Is found IN the
fact that by the end Of 1880 nearly everyone
thought that the depression had been stalled
ana was about to be replaced by new bust
ness boom in which government. business and
labor would pull together
This time it isn't quite so obvious
In view of what happened in 1880. 1881
and 1882 It may be good sign that the oaly-
hoo OF huge new construction programs by pri-
yate industry is much softer and more cautious
this year than it was eight years ago.
At that time it was announced with great.
flourish that the public utility executives had
come to the White House and outlined a $1,000.
100000 program for 1890 The American Tele-
phone and Telegraph Company was going to
spend S7OOOOOOOO U. S Steel would spend
S250000000 and some % states reported
to be planning an aggregate construction pro-
gram Of s4,7OOOOO0OO. No end OF corporations
were announcing programs involving eXpen-
diture of 10 to so millions.
Everyone was talking about fundamental
bases of prosperity" strength Of the business
fabric" "soundneSs of the economic structure
and numerous constructive elements brought
into play by the crash"
BY early December 1929. President Hoover
believed that confidence in business had been
reestablished - and so told Congress. The volume
of Christmas buying convinced him that bus-
ness had been restored to normal.
The more you recall all that sort of thing
and how little anyone knew what ne was talk
ing about the more comforting the outlook
seems today.
For whatever they may be worth. certain
changes in the economic set-up have been
wrought by government which tend to make a
different picture in the present recession.
The income of farmers is being heavily sub
sidzed and the federal government in effect
guarantees to take care of those cast off by
industry when the system slips a few cogs.
There are no bank failures or runs because
bank deposits insured Cunder a measure
which the administration opposed. but for which
il often claims full creditJ
Wise bets being placed more on natural
causes as a depression cure rather than any
concrete result of the recent White House bus-
ness conferences.
RooseVelt's plan for a new council of ad-
visers - 10 represent all segmentS of American
life" = sounds well and ought to make every
one feel good but it doesn't appear yet that
there's much hope in it beyond that There is
no segment OF American life from which Roose-
velt already isn't receiving more advice than
he or anyone else can digest
Already the President has been telling earnest
callers that his previous press conference pro-
posal that business men get together to plan
production isn't anything that can ,naterialize
right away not this year. at any rate.

LeWis-Chambers strike before a citizens
committee Director Russell Bailey Of
the State Employment Office in Ell

not a newspaper reporter present. The
inference was that he would not have

He forgets, possibly, that the only
medium by which the general public
can learn his attitude on matter which
vitally affects the public is the news

Bruce Cation Says
- Does Our Nation Lack Ordinary Politeness?

to be more courteous and polite
than the girls.
Chinese children were the most
polite of any nationality studied,
followed by those of Italian, Jap
anese and Irish descent.
American boys and girls were
the rudest and most discourteous
of the whole lot.
1t is a sad commentary, inde9H
that natiVe-born children, with ~
the advantages which a wealthy
and progressive nation can provide.
should be lacking in politeness when
compared with children who live
in squalid tenementS, play in the
street, and grow up in the rougher
strata of society.
Taken as a Whole, 1t may be
that our politeness as a nation is
no worse than it was so years ago,
and that the average person is not
really rude but merely the victim
of our hurry-up civilization.
But II would appear that our
children could take a lesson in
common courtesy from the "hea-
then Chinee."

If This Be Civil Service
Give Us Surcease


This is an editorial about the State
Employment Office in Ell Centre, Tor
merly the National Unemployment OIL
ice. We shall not apologize for this edl-
torial We shall not take back one thing
we have said in the past. We shall only
say that the office is not what It used
TO be.
I'm these columns there have been
words of hearty praise for the National
Unemployment Office; we have urged
not once but several times that Imperial
Valley employers give their cooperation
without stint To the Unemployment ser
vice We meant what we said then, and
we would say it again - if the crcum-
stances were the same. They are not.
When the National Unemployment
Office was reorganiZed as the State En-
ployment office. all of its employees
went under civil service. A new manager
was assigned by state directors to the
FL Centdo office. There was an an
nouncement that the policies of the office
would be unchanged. Imperial Valley
did not disapprove. 1t merely awaited
developments.
Now we are witnessing a strike on the
Lewis-Chambers Construction Company
job along 40 miles of the All American
Canal Authentic figures seem to IN
dicate that far less than half the men
ON the job Joined the strike. Some of
those who did have admitted to news
paper reporters that they did not know
exactly what the strike was about, but
they thought they were striking for
higher wages = for 80 or 50 cents an
hour" one striker said. In fact, the
principal reason for the strike is the
unions demand for a closed shop,
coupled with a demand for wage III
crease from 45 cents an hour to 62 ,
cents an hour.
The State Employment Office comes
into the strike picture because it is the
only source through which Lewis-Cham-
bers can obtain labOrerS, under the COM
panys contract with the government.
If there is strike in progress, the law
provides that the office can assign men
to the job if it first notifies them that
a labor dispute is involved.
Russell Bailey, new director of the
State Employment Office here, told
group last week that he will not assign
any men to the Lewis Chambers job
under any circumstances whatsoever
He implied that he would not send
man there even if the fellow asked to
be sent to that job. He said he was act
ing under orders from his immediate
superior in San Diego.
Yet the law makes clear provision
for such assignments.
Nobody asks the employment office
to side with the contractor against the
striking minority of laborers. Neither
does Imperial Valley wish to side with
the minority Of laborers in an effort to
force the majority of laborers into the
union.
If this is our new State Employment
Office - then give US back the old
National Unemployment Service.
