James F. Fly. chairman Of the
Federal Communications Commits
sion. took what appeared to be q
dig at Elliott Roosevelt. son of the
President. in an address last night
commencing the radio broadcasting
industry for its self-regulation.
Mr.. Roosevelt, protesting a pro-
hibition in the code of the National
Association of Broadcasters against
expression of personal opinions on
controversial issues in commercially
sponsored programs, asserted last
week he would withdraw 10 Texas
stations, which he operates, from
the N. A. B.
Mr.. Fly said in his address pre-
pared for delivery over the Columbia
Broadcasting System:
1T may be obvious that even self
regulation, voluntarily imposed. may
at times actually regulate. We are
reminded of the boy, who. UNDER
standing the problem, meets with a
group and decides upon the rules
OF the game which shall be applicable
to all concerned Thereafter. when
one of the particular rules has its
impact upon his own conduct and
the boy breaks up the game, picks
up his playthings and goes home,
he is hardly displaying the highest
type OF craftsmanship.

sonal power: still others saw a
chance to get rich on the dimes and
quarters Of the poor. All of them
perhaps unconsciously. were capital
izing the fact that the democratic
form OF government works slowly
that there always exists in a demo-
cratic society large group which
champs at the bit over the slowness
OF democracy. That is why it is
right for us who believe in democ-
racy to keep the democratic processes
progressive-moving forward with
the advances in civilization. That
is why it is dangerous for democracy
to stop moving forward because any
| period of stagnation increases the
, numbers Of those who demand ac-
ton and action now.
There are, therefore, two distinct
dangers to democracy-the peril
from those who seek the fulfillment
of ideals at pace too fast for the
machinery of the modern body
polite to function-people who by
insistence on too great speed foster
an oligarchic form of government
such as Communism or NaN-ism or
fascism.
The other group, which presents
an equal danger, is composed of
that small minority which COM
plants that the democratic processes
are inefficient as we'll as being slow,
people who would have the whole
of government put into the hands
of a little group of those who have
proved their efficiency in lines OF
specialized science or specialized
private business. They equally, and
in most cases unconsciously, too,
are in effect advocating the oil
garchic form Of sovernment-Com-
munism or Nazi-ism or Fascism.
Extremists Point Value
OF Middle Course.
Extreme rightists and extreme
leftists should not be taken out by
us and shot against the wall, for
they sharpen the argument and
make us realize the value OF the
democratic middle course-especially
If that middle course. In order to
keep up with the times, is lust 4
little bit left of center"
am reminded of four definitions:
A radical is man with both feet
firmly planted-in the air.
A conservative is a man with two
perfectly good legs who, however.
has never learned to walk.
A reactionary is somnambulist
walking backwards.
A liberal is a man who uses his

legs and his hands at the behest o.
his head.
1t has been a good thing thai
during the past 20 years we have
seen the effect Of organized propa.
ganda even when 1t has been based
on nostrums or prejudices.
Propaganda Deluge Gives
Congress Wisdom.
1t has been good thing for the
country that the Congress of the
United States has been deluged
from time to time by organized
propaganda. Members of the House
OF Representatives and the Senate
begin to discriminate nowadays be-
tween honest, spontaneous, unsolic.
lted expressions of opinion on the
part OF voters and the propaganda
type OF mass appeals.
Because the country is so pro-
foundly interested in the world sit
uation today I do want to leave
with you one thought bearing on
international relations. make
bold to do this because the topic
OF this evenings discussion, as
understand it, is THE Wars Chal-
lenge to the United States"
In and out of Congress we have
heard orators and commentato tors
and others beating their breasts
and proclaiming against sending the
boys of American mothers to fight
on the battlef1elds of Europe. That
l do not hesitate to label as one
OF the worst fakes in current his
tory. 1t Is a deliberate setting up
OF an imaginary bogey-man. The
simple truth is that no person in
any responsible place in the ma
tional administration in Washing
ton, or in any State government,
or In any city government, or in
any county government has ever
suggested in any shape. manner
or form the remotest possibility
of sending the boys of American
mothers to fight on the battlehelds
OF Europe. That is why I label
that argument a shameless and
dishonest fake.
Amateur Talking Brings

I have not the slightest objection

Famed BIuckheuth Caves
May Be Bomb Shelter

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, Oct. 27.-The long Lost
caverns OF Blackheath have been
found again, and now they may be
turned into an AFRAID shelter for
suburban Greenwich.
The caves-four rooms in the
chalky earth under the site of one
of the worlds first golf courses
were open to the public for years,
but in 1858 they were closed as un-
safe. Fallen material blocked the
entrance, and they were forgotten.
Workmen have sunk a 4O-foot
shaft and rediscovered them. And
today the Borough Council is con-
sidering installing some timbers to
make bombproof shelter.

address broadcast last night, under
the auspices of the New Yorl
Herald Tribune Forum, follows:
l am glad to say word in this
forum because I heartily approve
the forum idea. After all, two 18th
century forums in Philadelphia gave
us the Declaration of independence
and the Constitution Of the United
States.
1t is the magic of radio that fa.
so greatly increased the usefulness
OF the forum. Radio listeners have
learned to discriminate over the all
between the honest advocate who
relies on truth and logic and the
more dramatic speaker who is clever
In appealing to the passions and
prejudices of his listeners.
Press and Radio Strive
For Factual Presentation.
We have had an example of OBJ
Jective reporting during recent weeks
IN the presentation of international
subjects, both in the press and the
radio. Right here I should like to
throw bouquets to the press and the
radio. Through a period OF grave
anxiety, both have tried to dis
criminate between fact and prop
aganda and unfounded rumor and
to give their readers and listeners
an unbiased and factual chronicle
OF developments. This has worked
so we'll in international reporting
that one may be pardoned for wish
ing for more of it in the field OF
domestic news. If it is a good rule
in one. why is it not a good rule in
the other?
From the end of the World War
onward this country, like many
others, went through a phase of
having large groups of people car
rled away by some emotion-some
alluring, attractive, even speciously
inspiring, public presentation of a
nostrum. Many Americans lost their
heads because several plausible fel-
lows lost theirs in expounding
schemes to end barbarity, to give
weekly handouts, to give everybody
better job-or. more modestly, to
put a chicken or two in every pot
all by adoption of some new finan-
cial plan or some new social system
And they all burst like bubbles.
Progressive Processes
Vital to Democracy.

honest and sincere-others. too

The fact Of the international
