The 1910 Issues,

There you have the issue of next
years campaign-the failure of the
New Deal and its desperate effort
to change our American system into
state socialism to recoup its failure.
AS long as the American Constitu-
tion stands, the latter, of course, is
impossible, but the Constitution
already has been impaired by re-
cent presidential appointments to
the Supreme Court.
Efforts to renominate Mr.. Roose-
welt for third term are part of
the picture. Senator Joseph F..
Guffey unWittingly stated the i'm
pllcatlons as clearly as anyone could.
In his recent radio address he de-
clared that a reactionary Supreme
Court denied Mr.. Roosevelt a first
term. A Tory, reactionary Congress,
he continued, denied Mr.. Roosevelt
his second term. So he must have
a third term, said Senator Guffey.
But by the Guffey reasoning Mr..
Roosevelt never will have one term
until he has Supreme Court and
a Congress completely subservient to
his wishes. If that is not one-man
governmental that is not dictator
ship, pray tell us what is it? Ger
talnly it is not the American form
of government.

TOtalitarian Threat,


Having thus impaired the Amer
lean system Of free enterprise, the
New Dealers now set up a chorus to
the effect that the United States has
come to the end of its economic
road-that we have become of age
and that expansion which creates
jobs no longer is possible-that now
we must turn down the road leading
to totalitarianism by adopting a
Government-planned economy and a
diluted form of state socialism.
Such in general was the meaning
of the Berle memorandum prepared
for the O'Mahoney so-called Anti
Monopoly Committee. Such is the
meaning of the latest Roosevelt
$4,000 100000 spend-lend program.
In the latter Mr.. Roosevelt said 1t
must be permanent" policy of
Government to spend for self-liqui-
dating projects. Mr.. Berle is au-
thority for the statement that the
Federal Government cannot spend
permanently on self liquidating
projects without getting further and
further into the field of private en-
terprise until the Government owns
the productive facilities of the
Nation.

Having played an ace, will
Cardenas trump it? If he does, it
will be interesting to see how the
other tricks will be played. For
Parish is, has ever been, an expert
card player in the oil game:
shrewd, hard-headed 'argainer and
battler extraordinary when his
rights, personal or industrial, are
aSsailed.
He was born SO years ago in
Mayersville, Miss. and upon gradua.
ton from the University of Missis-
sippi entered the practice of law.
Soon, however, he switched to oil
and became one of the pioneer de-
velopers of that industry in Texas.
Something of a pebble hound-men
with noses for oil are thus coll
loquially termed in the oil country
he seems to have been. At any rate,
he was one of the discoverers Of the
rich Humble oil field In truth, he
bought leases there before even a
we'll had been drilled. So came into
being the Brown-Farish Oil Co.;
later, in 1911, the Humble Oil Co.,
and, six years later, the Humble Oh
g. Refining Co.
Time moved on. In 1918 Mr..
Parish appeared in Wall Street, as
even the most successful Of men
have done when they want money
for expansion or to tide over per-
plexities. But the bankers, observing
their customary attitude toward sue
cessful independent oil men, wanted
such a big price, such large cut
in the Parish interests, that the
Texan turned his back upon them
and went to his friend Teagle.
Now the Standard Oil had long
yearned toward the Humble COM
pany, desiring its crude oil for the
Bayonne refineries. Also it wanted
Mr. Parish. So, approximately in a
jiffy, the two industrial captains
struck bargain. The Humble COM
pany retained its identity. and when
Ross Sterling. president at the time,
was elected Governor of Texas, Mr..
Parish became president. And
meanwhile he had joined the Stand
ard Oil directorate Subsequently
elected to the Craftsmanship of the
board, he became president, succeed
ing Mr.. Teagle. in 1917, thus plac-
ing himself in line as inheritor Of
all headaches implied in the current
appropriation measures of the Car
denas government in Mexico.

to the man who honored them with
their jobs. Hence, their advice can
not be, except on rare occasions,
disinterested and the final decisions
are those of a single man who can
not possibly penetrate all the ma
tional questions by personal study
and do the many other routine Off
cial things required of him daily,
to say nothing of the time he must
give to callers and to the huge cor
reSpondence he carries on.
Some day the American people
will streamline their Government,
making a cabinet and Executive
responsible to Congress or the peo-
pie directly, but making it impos-
sible for momentous decisions to
be made by one man when, now
adays, only the cabinet as a whole
in other countries is permitted to
exercise the Executive power.

First and foremost is the fact that
the New Deal has failed. 1t has
failed to restore the country to eco
nomlc recovery. Other achieve
ments which may be claimed for it
and there are some-are imma-
terial In the face of that major fail
ure. The volume of unemployment
today is approximately the same as
IN 1888. Farm prices are not much
better than six years ago. Billions
OF dollars of idle money clog our
banks. The income of millions of
persons has been reduced substan-
TALLY during the last six years
through a deliberate cheap money
policy. restricted profits and dimin-
ishing interest rates.
The per capita income of the
American people is substantially less
than it was in the 1920s. Taken
as group, the annual average in
come of farmers, for example, has
been one and one-half billion
dollars less in the last six
years than in the previous six
year period In other words, each
farm family, on the average, has had
its income each year cut by more
than 5000 under the Roosevelt re-
gime-and that takes into account
farm subsidy payments.

More Reasons Why.

The national debt has reached a
total that no man ever dreamed
about six years ago. In addition,
the burden of taxation has become
substantially greater, with heavier
load falling each year on those who
earn their living in the sweat OF
their brows-those least ably to pay.
No matter how splendid the hu-
manitarian achievements of the New
Deal-no matter how right the re-
forms in banking and security trad
ing (and they were initiated under
the previous Republican regime) ;,
this country must attain economic
normalcy to go on Business must
be given a chance to make a profit
if it is to expand and create jobs
for those now walking the streets
looking for work or eking out an ex-
istence on a Government relief roll.
If those in distress and the aged
are to enjoy the guarding arm of
the Federal Government, then the
producers of the Nation must be
permitted to create the wealth to
achieve those ends. They must have
a chance to produce to take care of
those who are made wards of the
Government. But the New Deal de-
liberately has prevented the pro-
ducers from creating more wealth.
Business-all kinds, large and small,
agricultural as we'll as Industrial
has been placed in a straitjacket of
experimentation, uncertainty, puni-
tive taxation and Government re-
