because, as one of their apologists de-
clares: They took sadistic pleasure in
butting " orthodoxy" Liberalism and
tolerance have rendered them violent:
they are militant wreckers of tradition.
And, Of course, it is civilization-organ-
lied society-that is their foe. They talk
among themselves very freely about
smashing the system" to which they
object.
But the world public is not aware Of
their destructive bias. The average citi-
zen does not care enough to investigate
It, Only few of the saner critics have
understood the danger or attempted to
resist its influence. The truth, how
ever. is available to anybody who troubles
to inquire. For example, the official
journal of the American Federation of
Arts, published in Washington, prints
an unvarnished confession that "the
contagion of Dada spread like an epi-
demic. - In Berlin the rebellion was
most closely allied to actualities, and on
the political front to Communism"

Approves Mayor Hague in
The Custer of Thomas
To the Editor of The Star

Az VAC 6uitoE ol Inc Star.
Why so much fuss over Mayor Hague
preventing Norman Thomas delivering
public speech when Thomas ATTEMPTED
to speak without first procuring from
the city the usual permit.
1t seems the city has an ordinance on
such permissiolls. as all cities have, and
mayor Hague was only enforcing a CITY
law, same as other cities do and that
same ordinance includes Norman Thom-
as, John r. Bernard, Jerry O'ConnelI and
all others, regardless of title, official
standing, religion. politics, age, sex, race,
color; the ordinance is general in its
application.
Had Norman Thomas complied with
the law and applied for permit in the
usual way he may have been refused
then again the permit may have been
granted. In the denial of the permit it
would be up to Thomas to accept the
denial in gentlemanly way and retire
gracefully from the field. But no-he
thought he could bulldog his way
through. He did not know Mayor
Hague-but he knows him now.
Now Mayor Hague is called "dictator"
because he is out for law and order
under enforcement of city ordinances
and the citizens of Jersey City are back
Ing him and among the hackers are the
war veterans who are noted for their
loyalty to our flag and all it means to
us-something that cannot be said of
some other organizations and individuals

The F. B. /. Deficit.

In the wake of a storm of protest
stirred up by the deficit induced curtail-
ment of Oman activities, President
Roosevelt has given prompt approval to
belated recommendation of the Budget
Bureau for deficiency appropriation of
100000 for the Federal Bureau of In
vestigation.
This sum, with an advance of $65, 900
from next years appropriation, will en-
able Director j. Edgar Hoover to recall
to duty 320 special agents now on COM
pulsory furlough and to cancel pro-
posed furloughs for 320 more agents
next month. The appropriation un-
doubtedly will be granted by Congress,
several members of which already had
taken the floor to demand more money
for the handicapped bureau. Represen-
tative Crawford of Michigan pointed out
that the deficit was due to such unfore-
seen emergencies as the Ross, Levine and
Fried kidnapings.
Even police of the sometimes
depicted as bitter rivals of the G-men-
joined in the expressions Of Indignation
which descended on Capitol Hill when
the financial troubles of the F.. B. I. be-
came known through the closing of field
offices and laying off of agents. When
some of these protesters blamed Con-
gresS for the situation member of the
House Appropriations Committee dis
claimed responsibility, declaring that
either the F. B. l. or the Budget Bureau
was at fault for failing to request suf-
ficient funds.
Records of the appropriation hearings
show clearly, however, that the F. B. l.
was not granted what it urgently asked,
by either the Budget Bureau or Con-
gress 1t received S530,0Oo less than its
officials testified was required for the
current fiscal year, and $431,00 less
than was requested for the next year. It
is not surprising, therefore, that the
pressure of emergency Investigations put
the bureau $4,000 in the red this year
The surprising thing is that the deficit
was not greater.
The deficiency item will not compen-
safe the furloughed agents for personal
losses incurred in travelling to their
homes on May /, nor will it enable the
F. B. I. to make up the time lost in
suspended investigations, in some of
which, perhaps, clues have grown cold
and suspects have disappeared.
At best, this is patchwork financing.
After the patch is applied, the bureau
still faces a new fiscal year with less
money available than it started out
with this year. Unless gangland sud-
denly decides to go straight, another
deficit would seem to be in prospect.
The Budget Bureau and Congress need
expect no cooperation from crime, for
statistics show that lawlessness takes no
furloughs and spares no money. The
Government can i'll afford to shut its
eyes to these facts under the guise of
economy.

Hopkins Reply to Hoover
A Typically New Deal Move

Az tiIe EOlLoT OF Inc Star.
In his speech blasting Hoover-for
whom I hold no brief-Harry Hopkins
becomes typically New Deal.
He says Hoover missed entirely the
basic fact that Fascism came to certain
foreign shores because the masses were
not getting their fair share.
If it is his imputation that the masses
here in the land of perfection under
the New Deal are not getting their fair
share, wish to present facts in refuta-
ton.
They are getting their fair share of
worklessness; their fair share of relief
for which succeeding generations will
have to pay; their fair share of pledges
broken as soon as made because the in
cumoent Government squanderers have
no idea where they're heading; their fair
share-Why prolong the familiar list
OF overwhelming debt.
However. non-recognition of the ef-
1ect OF It's short-of of-the-mark policies
upon business confidence and restoration,
and Unemployment, is a trait on which
New Deal higher-ups seem to have the
monopoly.
silent reception Of Mr.. Hoover's
speech expressive of contempt, would
have been more effective, though possess
ing a subtlety not usually associated with
politics.

word to make Mr.. Hoover, however
erroneous his course may have been.
