showing of solvency and peace. Just
now, reports from Europe that he
is putting out peace feelers are in
teresting if not important. He is on
middle ground. With his co-dicta-
tors, he has assailed democracy, but
his country has been for centuries
more or less in British leading
strings, and he is charged with none
of the brutal excuses of the other
Continental tyrannies. 1t was in
May of last year that he made a
sharp break with Italy and Germa-
ny and swung into the British orbit.
In 1928, when Gen. Antonio Car
mona seized power, he summoned
the acidulous, little, bespectacled
professor to take hand in the gov
eminent. DR.. Salazar said it would
be all or nothing With the under
standing that England would con-
tinue its benign mandate over Portu-
gal, he took over as premier.
He dislikes uniforms and new
er wore one, and dislikes ora
tory even more. He has made
four short speeches in the IL
years of his premiership. By
cutting out all social reforms,
and curtailing expenditures for
public health and education, and
by developing 4 guild system Of
his own devisins, he has con-
served resources and cut down
the external debt. There Is .
disagreement as to what has
happened 10 the internal debt.
His critics say IL has risen
sharply and that real wages and
the standard Of living of his
ueoule have been lowered.

peneQ 10 De down In EllZd-
bethton, Tenn, in 1928 when Ed
ward F. McGrady was kidnapped
a., from his hotel
For Fair Break to of the night,
Ownership, Labor pu. down ,s,;,d. m
ness and told to keep going. He
was an A. F. of L. representative,
organizing the rayon mill workers.
He walked straight back to town,
met his assailants, and explained
to them there had been a mistake.
Always dapper, smiling wry smile,
he never SO much as lost the crease
in his trousers in this adventure.
The vigilantes bought him a drink.
Nobody knows the trouble he's
seen, but he's Strengthened out
a lot Of it, too, and now at 68,
he becomes the special labor
aide to the army as special Ia
Dor consultant to Secretary
Stimson. He has held down
many a sizzling-hot lid Of labor
strife and, respected by owner
ship for wise counsel and fair
dealing, he is equally respected
by labor as a hard-hitting con-
tender for its rights.
1t was in September, 1887, that he
was upped SO stories to a mahogany
and mono-metal office and a sal
airy of SIS, 900 year as director Of
labor relations for the Radio Corpo-I
ration of America. His singular sue
cess as a labor conciliator during
the preceding five years, while as
sistant secretary of labor, lay in
keeping the friendship of both sides.
But no one ever called him a yes
man. He is hard-headed and tough
minded.
He was a newsboy in one of the
sleaziest of Boston slums. He be-
came a newspaper pressman, and
union organizer. Samuel Com
pers sent him to Washington, where
he remained IA years as the legis-
alive agent of the A. F. Of L.
His habits of speech, never
bOokish or turning to double
talk, have had much to do with
his success in clearing up what
he calls MISUNDERSTANDING
In short, hard-hitting words, he
has preached the responsibility
of labor to cooperate and pro-
duce, as well as bargain, along
with the responsibility Of owner
ship to give the worker a fair
break. He was assistant admin
istrator of the NRA under Gen.
Hugh johnson. In his new post,
he serves without salary, hav-
ing been partially released from
his duties by President David
Sarnoff of the r. c. A.

'CROQUET CLIQUE AND
FRANCO LOAN

WASH1NGTON.-T inside story
of how the career boys nearly put
over the Sl00,000,000 credit to Fas-
ciSt Spain indicates the strength of
''the croquet clique" inside the state
department. This is the group which
plays croquet almost every evening
with Cordell Hull, and is equivalent
to the "Cliveden set in England.
AS matter of fact, it was a part
of the old Cliveden clique-Lord
Halifax and Sir Samuel Hoare-who
started the idea of helping General
Franco. Sir Samuel Hoare is now
British ambassador to Spain, and it
was he who sold the idea to Ameri-
can Ambassador Weddell, long ia
nous for his ability to follow rather
than lead.
Lord Halifax and Hoare apparent
ly thought it would be smart poll
tics to get the United States to lend
a hundred million dollars to Spain,
in which case Britain might win
few months of Spanish neutrality
and certainly could not lose-since
only American money would be in
vested.
So Ambassador Weddell had sew
eral talks with General Franco and
later sold the idea to some of his
friends in the state department., no.
tably Assistant Secretary Breckin-
ridge Long and James Dunn. Jim
my Dunn, adviser on political rela-
tons, today has become one of the
most important figures in the state
department. For he is Cordell Hull S
chief croquet partner. In fact, it is
on Jimmy Dunn's lawn that many
of the croquet matches take place.
So Jimmy Dunn sold the idea Of
the Spanish credit to his croquet
partner, and for time it looked as
if Mr.. Hull would put it across. It
was at this point that Under Secre-
tary of State Sumner WelleS stepped
into the picture. He communicated
direct to the President who at that
time was away on his Caribbean
cruise.
Roosevelt agreed with Welles that
to throw hundred million dollars
into the lap of Fascist Spain would
be extremely unwise. However, a
compromise finally was worked out,
largely for the purpose of saving
Mr.. Hull's feelings, since he had
already gone rather far out on a
limb in favor of the Spanish credits.
Therefore the Red Cross will send
a certain amount of food and medi-
cal supplies to Spain. How much
this will be remains to be seen. but
the croquet clique will see that it
is enough to keep Franco in power
despite the rising tide of discomfort
among the Spanish people.
