HAZEL
EYES
BY Hazel Brannon

Board, headed by the Presidents uncle,
Frederic Delano, is one board hat
should be abolished and not be allowed
to rear its ugly head again.
Honeycombed with the New Deal
Notwithstanding philosophy it
visualizes a Utopia Of cradle-to-grave
security which is nothing more than an
optical illusion or wishful thinking.
The real author of the Delano report
is not the Presidents uncle, says Rep.
Noah Mason, Illinois, but an English
socialist. Speaking to the House Rep.
Mason said;
"The real author of the Delano Report
is one Mrs. Eveline Burns, Ph.D. the
Director of Research for the National
Resources Planning Board. She is an
English Socialist who came to America
a few years ago with her husband, DR..
Arthur r. Burns, now Chief Adviser
to the Wal Production Board. She is
an important cog in the New Deal
machine that grinds out socialistic
schemes to destroy private property in
America and to bring about state social
ism. She 10 q brilliant woman, saturated
with the philosophy Of Karl Marx. This
same DR.. Evcline Burns in 1882 col
Elaborated with others In the preparation
Of a book entitled Socialist Planning
and q Socialist Program In her con-
tribution to this book she urged out
right government control Of both labor
and property. I quote her exact words:
".Society will have to devise methods
Of preventing the indiscnminate use OF
d by every optimistic producer
-. and Of replacing the guesses Of In
dividual producers by a more orderly
method OF estimation Of need. Such .
method would imply the imposition Of
controls that would refuse individuals
the right to mike what use they wish
Of their own labor and property
"That last sentence IL the essence OF
the Karl Marx program and also Of this
cradle-to-grave security program.
ut is interesting to note at this point
that the Drs. Burns are both natives OF
England and were British subjects until
q recent phase Of the New Deal era, at
which time they became United States
citizens and very soon thereafter secured
their high posts In these offices of the
United States government. 1t has been
pointed out by Washington observers
that the people of America are indebted
for the Drs. Burns to the underground
railroad, so to speak, operated Jointly
and expertly by the Hon. Felix Frank
furter, of the U. s. Supreme Court. and
the Hon. Harold Laski OF the London
School of Economies. The Drs. Burns
are both former high functionaries of
the London School Of Economies, which
has turned out in its day many a fine
mess of confused master statisticians,
enthusiastic Communists, and Socialist
joiners. In fact it may well be said
that the London School Of Economics
has specialized in turning out brain
twisters who are expert in producing
calculated Illustration on a mass scale
by means of planned confusion designed
to end up in regimented chaos.
"Mr. Speaker, if you will take the
time to study and analyze the Delano
report, this cradle-to-grave security
illusion, you will find the essence of
the plan contained in the following para
graph taken from the report:
"'Where a State refuses to comply
with the Federal requirements in accord
ance with the Federal law or r~efrains
from participation in the program, the
Federal Government should have the
power to operate the program within
that State with Federal personnel until
the State demonstrates its ability and
willingness to deassume It's RESPONSE
bilities.'
"This paragraph means if it means
anything at all, that If the States re-
fuse to cooperate they are to be pOliced
by the Federal Government until they
sec the light. 1t means permanent ration
ing, price fixing. and Government con-
troll of all business. No wonder the
Congress- has so far turned a odd
shoulder to the plan"
The House outright refused the
Boards request for 81 $4,000 0 to carry
on its planning" A subcommittee Of
the Senate ApptopTiatIoHs CoHiui'escN
rejected the recommendations of the
subcommitte and provided 5000, 90 for it.
Tennessee's Senator Mcclellan offered
an amendment from the floor restoring
the appropriation to 1884 10000.
Mississippi's Senator Eastland was
reported voting for enator McKellar's
amendment to give the Board 1884, 900.
X 1t would be interesting to know Sen
ator Eastland's reasons for voting for
the perpetuation of this board which
has the temerity to suggest a plan for
all the people to be dependent upon the
government and which blatantly says:
"The public debt is something very
different from the private debt of an
individual. An Individual will always
improve his asset position If he is able
to pay off a part Of his debt. But a
Nation may make itself poor by repay
ment Of a public debt"
The Senate should refuse the Board
any appropriation and see that it is
abolished like the House dictated l.. .
and also see that it is not brought back
to life by another name and financed
