New Finnish President Warns
of Greater Future PrivatiOn

Helsinki, Jan. lO-UP-In the
words OF Risto Ryti. recently elect
ed president Of Finland, the path OF
his country lis narrow and thorny
The future of Finland was paint
ed in dark colors by Ryti even be-
fore he succeeded the late Kyosti
kallio as chief executive. Speak
ing on Dec. Finnish lndepen-
dence Day. he warned the country
that the times of suffering and pri-
walton were not yet over and that
Finland had not passed the dan
ger zone. He also cautioned the
nation against the illusion that all
difficulties would disappear as soon
as the war among the great powers
ended.
Ryti's words were interpreted to
indicate his confidence in the peo-
pie was great and that he believed
they had recovered from the shock
OF last March. When the terms Of
the peace were announced on
March 10, everybody thought of
what was lost and nothing be-
sides that seemed to matter much.
So many hopes had been shattered,
so many sacrifices seemed to have
been in vain. Now. nine months
later, the loss is still felt but the
eyes of the Finnish people again
are fixed on the future.
Apathy Has Disappeared

Arthur Bachmann, noted Detroit

lens created by the war could be
solved only with exceptional means.
The reconstruction measures of
the government deeply affect the
entire nation and therefore were
bound TO have the most widespread
repercussions on the economic, So
cial and political life OF the Fin
nish people
Political Change Weighed
Doubts are being expressed In
some quarters whether the old po-
litical system is adequate to carry
the nation through the emergency.
Those political groups which al
ways sympathized with Fascist
ideas are demanding more rigid
control OF the economic life and
greater powers for the government.
Two recently founded National
Socialist groups go still further and
want 10 abolish the parliamentary
system and to replace Il by the
leader principle. Neither in the
government nor in Parliament do
these groups have, however. suf-
ficient influence TO make any sud
den change in the present political
order probable. That is generally
admitted.
On the other hand it is generally
admitted that the government
needs greater freedom OF action TO
deal with all problems arising out
OF the emergency.
Ryti. before he became presi-
dent, asked the Parliament for spe-
cial powers to regulate the econ
monte life OF the nation under
emergency conditions. The bill
would permit the government to
control prices and wages as well
as freight rates and customs tariffs.
While the government in this
way shows that ii is determined
not to let individual interests in
terfere with policy Of reconstruc-
ton and dealing with war time
necessities 1t also shows that il
does not intend to give up the prin-
ciples on which the political life of
the nation is based. The bill which
gives the government full power is
clearly defined as an emergency
measure and is not meant to be-
come permanent.
