THE ESSENTIALS OF U. S. DEMOCRACY

A short time ago, number of Sem
ators, principally members of the ma
jority party, conferred with a view to
creating definite program for promoting
recovery. Their conclusions, embraced in
ten proposals, were presented to the Senate
by Josiah Bailey of North Carolina A
digest of these ten vitality important points
follows:
1. The capital gains tax and the un-
distributed profits tax should be thoroughly
revised at once, so as to encourage the
normal flow of savings into productive en-
terprise.
2. A start should be made toward
balancing the Federal budget in order that
public credit may be preserved and fears
which deter investment, ended
3. The constitutional guarantees of
the right of the worker to work, and of the
owner of property to its possession, must be
preserved and enforced.
4. Government should stay out of
fields which belong in the realm of private
industry-and if the government does pro-
pose to compete in any field, due notice
should be given so that private investment
may avoid it.
5. The competitive system must be
maintained-as against either private or
government monopoly, and business right
to reasonable profit must be guaranteed.
6. Private credit must be, preserved
and that means thatelthe inationis col
lateral on which all credit depends, must be
preserved. a s $ b9ez II in Isl
Z. There must be an assurance that
taxes will not be further Increased, and
that they will be reduced at the earliest
possible time.
8. States rights, home rule and local
self-government must be vigorously main
tanned, unless proven definitely made
quate.
8. The needy must be aided under a
system which is non-political and non-par-
tisan.
10. Lastly, the nation should rely, in
the future, as in the past, upon the AM
erican system of private initiative and en-
terprise.
This program needs no comment. 1t
is a real prosperity program. It is based
upon the principles that have made Am
erica great. If Congress will adopt it, it
will make magnificent contribution not
only to recovery, but to the maintenance of
u. S. democracy.

far but it is known that the department
has advised the WPA that Key West is
one of the locations which the air corps
would like to see developed. Being fur

where an airport should be located.
