A Storm About Cabbages.
If the administration keeps working
hard enough. possibly it may over
come common sense. BY a score of
devices the administration tries to
bring about higher prices than would
be the result of natural forces. The
other day, in North Carolina Ias I read
in a newspaper from that State). the
price Of cabbage was So ton in the
field. The cabbage raisers thought
that was not high enough. Most per-
sons who have something to sell
think at all times that the price is
not high enough. In North Carolina
local leaders telegraphed their Con-
gressmen to call on the Agricultural
Adjustment Administration and see if
A. A. A. wouldn't make the price Of
cabbage higher. A. A. A. said 1t
would. A. A. A. bought several car
loads OF cabbage at SO ton.
The Agricultural Adjustment Ad-
ministration is doing that sort of thing
all the time. They have a branch
through which they carry it on. With

1t is an operation, according to Mr..
Tapp. which pleases both the farmers
and the ultimate consumers.
Not only did Mr.. Taps organization

much prefer to sell fob to the Gov
eminent than to be billed for freight
by the carriers. If their commodities
are not sold in glutted markets.
A graduate of the University OF
Kentucky in 1920, Mr.. Tapp went into
the Bureau OF Farm Management and
Agricultural Economics of the Depart
ment of Agriculture. He cut his eye

father of the present Secretary. and
himself Secretary of Agriculture in the

The experts scattered in 1928. Mr..
Tapp became economic adviser to New
York banks. 1t was "old home week"
in 1888 when they all returned as the
Triple A got under way.
Mr.. Tapp is young, broad-shoul-
dered, takes his job seriously and has
little time for hobbies. He has a
good smile. which helps him over the
rough places. He expects the corpora
ton to spend s2S,0oo,0o0 this year
about double the sum spent last year
He realizes that this is temporary
expedient. trying to bridge the gap
between people with no buying power
and farmers who have too much to

Business and the Election
Columnist Thinks Republican Shift Would Loose Vast
Wave of Pent-up Industrial Activity.

in recent months they have bought
eggs and canned fruit and dairy prod
ucts. One time or another they have
made purchases OF about every farm
crop.
Buying surplus farm crops is only
one Of the administrations devices
for making prices higher than they
would otherwise be. All over the
lot. they are setting up Jacks, or
building stills, or pumping in air.
below all sorts of prices. Just lately
they are bullying the banks to loan
more money, so that more people can
buy things. The banks are eager
enough to loan, for that is the prin-
cipal way the banks have to make
money for themselves But business
men do not want to borrow. for the
reason that they are afraid to expand
or to go into new businesses. The
reason for this fear on the part Of
business is the heart OF the whole
national difficulty. The subject Is
too complex to go into here.
Most Indices Are on Decline.
Since April IA, when the Presidents
so-caAled "pump-priming" program
was announced, most of the indexes Of
volume Of business have actually de-
clined. This would seem to answer
the question whether pump printing
alone will bring recovery. The fact Is,
business activity is now back to where
it was in 1888. soon after the Roose-
welt administration came in.
This business apathy. almost paraly-
sis. cannot last forever. Indeed it can
hardly last long. Something Is bound
to happen. 1t may be any one Of
several things. and 1t may take any Of
several directions. One of the posi-
bilities is worth considering.
During the coming summer, public
opinion and surmise will begin to look
forward to the congressional elections,
which take place in November. BY
about September, there will be q
certain degree of judgment about
the probable outcome. One judgment
might be that the Republicans would
win so or go seats. Among politicians
that is a fairly common judgment at
the present time. A gain of so or so
seats would be large from the Repub-
lican point of view, for they have at
present only 80. But the gain of so
or so seats would leave them with far
less than a majority, for the total
is 435.
But gain of so or 60 for the
Republicans might change the national
psychology. 1t might lead the country
to believe that the tide has turned,
that the New Deal Is on the way out.
Expectation Of that might be the
spark for business recovery which the
New Deal now tries in vain to start
II business starts to recover at all it
should recover with great rapidity and
volume, for it would have the stimulus
OF the great quantity Of credit that
the New Deal has created.
But there Is no certainty that the
Republicans will win so or so seats,
or that the possibility here suggested
will eventuate. There are other posi-
bilities, and some Of them are less
cheerful than this.
