deposits, $4,225, 5,27470, while Riggs
National came next with an increase
OF $3,268, ,403.21. Several banks re-

way the wind blows-or, to be more
exact, the way they guess it is blow
ing. When Mr.. Roosevelt,s popular
ity was at its height, it was polit-
ical suicide to oppose any part OF
the New Deal program, and most
Congressman acted accordingly. To-
day there is apparently a shift in
public sentiment, judging by the
standard polls. of public opinion, in
the conservative direction, and this
Is giving heart to Congressman who
have been sitting on the fence, hold
ing tight to their jobs.
What will come out of all this
and out of the growing under
ground war between the President
on the one hand, and the conserva-
tive Democrats led by Garner and
Harrison, on the other-isn't safe
to forecast. But it throws an in
teresting light on conditions. Many
realistic businessmen are coming
to feel that, while they won't get all
they want from congress, there is
considerably less danger than in
the past of new and unexpected
legislative kicks in the pants.

Walt Disney has had some of his

that Americans are pleased with the

FREE SPEECH

| Americans pride themselves upon
their Bill Of Rights, which gives
/ them the previlige of free speech
And there are but few Americans
who do not exercise the privilege
and many who abuse it. There was a
recent meeting in New York and
several other large cities, where pro-
Nazi Germans gathered to instieate
and excite class hatred. The meet
ing was held without objection of
the public officials and there was
slight interference by outside forces
There are many public-minded
Americans who object to such a
gathering. Of course, we must re-
member that another Americanism
is the right of assembly and to pre-
vent it would be to play into alien
hands. One cannot be surprised If
citizens do make a demonstration
against such a group, with such a
purpose. America has been yerv
lenlent In allowing utterances
against their government, but thew
Will not take too much. They real
lie that each man has the right to
state his opinions regarding ma
tlonal conditions, but will these
Americans remain passive when a

ment where free speech is made
possible? What to do in the matter
Of permitting such gatherings is a |
real problem for public officials to |
solve.

he won the respect Of the citizens
