traitors and leaders!
Of course Mr.. Gill is right if, as
he undoubtedly believes, Presi-
dent Roosevelt is reelected for
another term. This would mean
that he and his policies would
dominate the country for approx
mately another five years, the
period mentioned by Mr. Gill. In
deed, the way things have been
going there probably would be
as many unemployed at the end
of a Roosevelt third term, as
there are today and there were in
1892.
But Mr.. Gill is wrong because
Mr.. Roosevelt will not be the
President of the United States
after next January. His New
Deal brain trust, tinged as it is
with socialistic ideas, will not be
running the country ad strangl-
ing business to death for their
ow Interior ends.
Solution of the unemployment
problem is not an easy one. None
claims that. But if business is
given a decent chance to 90 a.
head, if employers can find a way
to profitably expand then the
army of the unemployed ra-
pidly will dwindle. Men and wo-
men who want work again will
find it and at living wages in

How can this be done Well IN
the first place a start toward this
goal can be taken by installing
in Washington an administra-
ton that believes America is
still a land of opportunity and
by rejecting an administration
which cotends thta we have come
to the end of our economic road.
Once the determination to get
people back to work take COM
mand in Washington things will
commence to move, even if no
thing else were done.
But, of course, a great many
other things will be done.
A housing program will be
stimulated, Pubic utilities will
he encouraged to expand their
plant capacity. Railroads will be
placed on a basis of stability and
will be enabled to purchase the
equipment they so badly need.
Little businessmen will be en-
couraged to start new ventures.
Big business will take take the
risk of experimenting with some
OF the patents and devices which
have lain dormant on it's shelly
es for almost a decade now.
In brief, America will 90 a.
head as it always has gone, by
the determination and will O
its people, working under a sy-
stem of free enterprise instead of
under the shadows of socialistic
experiments.

Continued from Page D get alarmed over the McKesson company standing in 1880. Things looked rather blue" at that time, he asserted, although he still retained his confidence in both McKessons and in F. Donald Coster.
 In 1892 Phillips said he wrote to CoSter and told him in strong terms that he'd have to do something about the company's standing finan- cially. He said in the letter that the Griggs company was "on the spot", because it had backed the McKesson stock stronger than any other issue it ever underwrote or attempted to sell and its best customers were heavy investors in the stock. He said he wrote Coster that some thing had to be done"
 Was "In Deep"
 The letter also said that Phillips himself was lin deep" in McKeSSons both personally and as supervisor or trust fund in the F. J. Kingsbury estate. He wrote to Coster at the time that he had invested funds al the trust in McKeSson stock and hr certainly didn't want it to become I lemon"
 In identifying the letter and testi- flying concerning it MT. Phillips called 1t strong rebuke and Ge.. mand for action.
 After reading it his counsel, Att torney Harold Corbin, said: "Were you conSpiring with CoSter when you wrote that letter.
 T most certainly was not replied Phillips.
 Juror Asks Question
 After short recess during this mornings, session permission was sought of Judge Moscowitz ny Juror No. II, John Searl, to address question to the witness, Mi. Phil lips. Given permission the juror asked if Julian Thompson, late treasurer of McKesson and Robbins whose suspicious started the probe that led to Costers downfall and the drug firm scandal, maintained an office in Bridgeport or New York
 MT. Phillips replied that ke had offices in both cities, but that afte. 1884 he was mostly in New York.
 Attorney Corbin was subjected to some criticism from the judge dur ing his questioning this morning. A particularly strong "call-down' was voiced when Corbin ' asked Phillips: Did you mean what you said in your letter." Inasmuch as there were great many letters read to the court and the same question was continually voiced by defense counsel Judge Moscowitz mtimated that counsel was wasting time". He asked the witness if 1t wasn't true about all the letters as much as one and with an affirmative reply the judge informed Atty. Corbin that the question was settled for good. !

COUNSEL INSPECTS
 POLICIES RECORDS
Atty Wertheimer Takes Advantage of Recent
 Court Ruling

Attorney William Wertheimer, who won his legal battle to obtain per mission to see at police headquarters an accident record in which he was interested, saw the record Wednes- day, 1t was learned today.
 Supt. of Police William J. Roach against whom Attorney Wertheimel obtained a mandamus writ, said Corp. Counsel J. Gregory Lynch showed Wertheilner the accident record two days ago.
 Attorney Lynch, counsel for the police department, yesterday filed an answer to Judge Carl Fosters memorandum in which the judge denied Lynch's motion to quash the mandamus proceedings. The answer stated that the police department withdrew all further defense in the case.
 The record in question was the police investigation of an accident in which Edward Doherty, five, was injured last December. Wertheimer is counsel for Doherty in civil suit
