NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
WHO KILLED COCK ROBIN?

1t is not so very long since President koose'el
claimed for his administration entire creot LOT '"'
recovery of business which was then III progress
I'VE planned it that way" he said, 'and don't let
anybody tell you differently" Yesterday at Games
vile, he asked the country to believe that natloha
progress and national prosperity are Delng helu
back chiefly because of selshness on the part OIL
few" According to this reasoning, when business
Is good the government deserves the credit ana
when business is bad the fault lies with the SeIish
few"
1t is difficult theory to accept, because the de
preston from which the country IS now suHerirg
is plainly the work of many hands. Businessmen
in various industries share responsibility Tor II 10
the extent that they advanced prices mreasonapiy
in the hope of larger profits. Labor shares respon-
sibity for it because in many instances the eNor-
bitant demands of labor for higher wage rates SIM
ply raised costs of production to an unecohom"
level, as the president himself specifically recoE
nized in the case of the building trades And gov
eminent also shares responsibility for it, because
government during the past eighteen months mas
delivered a series of stunning blows to business
confidence.
This chapter began with the enactment of all
unwse tax which discouraged the reinveStment OF
earnings in industrial expansion. On top OF that
came the presidents supreme court plan, which
was a blow to business confidence because 1t was
threat to the independence of the Judiciary Then
followed the ineXpcabe silence Of the admlnlstra-
ton in the face of a series of st-down strikes
which challenged the whole conception of the rights
of private property. At the time labor was
officially encouraged to accept the theory-whoSe
widespread acceptance in France has a.! but wreck
ed the economy of that Country-that there is
vast fund of wealth which has only to be divided
more equitably in order to make everybody pros
porous regardless Of whether or not there is an
increase in the production of goods which alone
constitute the wealth of Il society. At the same
time, Also the development of the governments
power policy reaching beyond an attempt to dem
onstrate in specific area and scrupulously fair
terms the advantages of public ownership and OPP
Grafton, created fears of subsidized competition
which spread from the utilities to other industries
And finally, the administration has shown dis
couraging unwilhngness to correct mistakes of
Judgment; it has nourished grudges which ought
long since to have been forgotten, and it has
toned appeals to class prejudice on the part of
some of its subordinates which have been reckless
in the extreme.-New York Times.

THE REAL REMEDY FOR UNEMPLOYMENT

We submit the following as automatic:
THE real remedy for unemployment Is the ere
alton and maintenance of work opportunities for
working men and women in private industry"
Such does not emanate from the United States
Chamber of Commerce nor from the National As
ISOLATION of Manufacturers, from either of which
it might have been expected.
On the other hand, it is a statement from the
executive council of the American Federation of
Labor.
And when it comes to the point of how best can
this objective be reached, submit, again, the
following:
"By immediate steps toward the restoration of
public confidence in private industry and at the
same time create cooperation and understanding
between those who own and manage industry, la
Dor and the government
Nor does that come from Tory or an Economic
royast"

BEHIND THE SCENES
IN WASHINGTON
BY RODNEY BUTCHER.

~ ASHINGION. - SldCnt
" Roosevelt and his New Deal
colonies are resuming the var
path.
1t looks as if the So-called
breathing spell, which a previous
dispatch reported was threatened
after anti-administration state
mentS by 3. NJ. Baruch and others
made the President sore, were
about over.
This will be bad news to some,
but excellent news to DISCOURAGED
New Dealers on and off Capitol
Hill who, have been moaning that
the New Deal was falling apart,
that Roosevelt was doing every
thing his enemies wanted him to
do and was letting his leadership
60 by default.
Roosevelt now intends TO 90 TO
town for wage-hour law and to
send Congress a comprehensive
message on monopoly early in
April. The monopoly message is
likely to be strong one, provide
ing an issue for an immediate
fight in Congress and for injection
into the congressional campaigns.
That the. President still had
some fight left in bim was in
Dictated by his removal of Chair
nan Arthur Morgan of IVA, who
was set up as a hero by anti-NeW
Deal groups, and blythe grim de-
termination with which sdminis-
ration forces united to beat down
he rebellion of conservative Dem
ocratic senator's against the reor-
5anization bill. ~.

A FEW QUESTIONS

Does anyone believe that we can continue to
spend 81 900 900 900 annually to support our fed
eral government?
Does anyone believe that We can continue to en-
courage people to look to the federal government
for sustenance?
Does anyone believe anything of really cor
receive nature has been accomplished by the pres.
ent administration?
Does anyone believe that this country can be
returned to normal conditions unless the American
farmer and the American business man is permit
ted to exercise his own ingenuity?
Does anyone believe that there is any substitute
for profit?
Does anyone believe that there will be anyone
left to pay our enormous tax bill unless someone
is permitted to make money?
Does anyone believe that there is a single person
in the confidence of the president who is capable of
directing affairs in such manner that capital
can be assured of adequate and fair returns on
Investment?
Does anyone believe that any government can
be efficient and wise enough to regulate agri-
culture, our industry and commerce that
the well being of the people of the country will be
advanced?
Does anyone really believe that the government
is more capable than the individual?
These are questions which are being asked by
the American people. Events in the rest of the
world are leading Us to give more serious thought
to the fundamentals of our own situation and to
have deeper appreciation of what has been &C
complished in the relatively short $50 years of
history. There is growing determination to hold
fast to our governmental traditions. There is an
increasing suspicion of those who would scrap them
and of those who insist that have been wrong
in everything we have done. re be sure, thought
should continue to be given to corrective measures
Changing conditions require change in govern
mental details. But to depart from the very prin
ciples which have resulted in accomplishments
which have been unprecedented in the history of
the world is an altogether different matter.-Brook
ings Is. D. Register.
