When discussing with students the business out
look they insist that conditions are very different
today than in 1929 They show how in 1929 interest
rates were very high and money scarce; while
today interest rates are abnormally low and bank
loans may easily be secured. They explain how the
farmers in 1929 burdened with debt and
today are almost free from debt and that, in
general way, this applies also to other industries.
They claim that everyone speculating in 1929
on very thin margins; while today there is only a
little speculation with margins averaging over 7O%.

These students are proud of the fact that the
government has become such large purchaser of
certain goods, crops and building materials and
hence can largely stabilize these industries They
recognize that unemployment will increase; but
that unemployment Insurance. pensions ETC.. should
still give these unemployed people money with
which to pay their rent ~and buy their food. This
they claim will make retail trade less dependent of
fluctuations in industrial production
These students show that not only is the farmer
now largely out of debt, but that he indefinitely

the manufacturer depends upon a reason

pends upon reasonable immigration restrictions.
They point to the fact that there was no bank de-

surance protection for $50 of all individual de-

TAFT'S CAMPAIGN STARTED
ALREADY

There won't be another Presidential cleo
ton until 1852. But next years Congress
sional elections will hold far more import
ance than they usually do, as an indication OF
what is to come, and as test of power be-
tween strongly divergent PHILOSOPHERS of
government. The main interest will center
in Ohio, where Senator Taft will run again,
This contest will have a truly national signif-
icance. For Taft has clearly proven himself
to be the most adrOit and effective opponent
Mr.. Truman has. AS everyone knows, the
Truman legislative program has fallen on
evil days. He lost out completely on his re-
quest for repeal of the Taft-Hartley law. He
will get only small part of his all-incluSive
social security program. The chance OF the
Columbia Valley Administration being ap-
proved by this Congress is so slim as to be
almost non-existent His ideas on tax in
creases have found deaf ears in Congress.
His leaders have been out-maneuvered time
and time again. Senator Taft has not done
all this alone by any means, but he has been
the leading spirit 1t is not remarkable that
a large group of Washington correspondents,
of all political views recently voted over
wheImingly for Taft when they were asked
to name the ablest Senator. He has few
equals as parliamentarian. Perhaps no one
now in Washington has so wide knowledge
of the complex workings of the government.

signs of wayering on policy. He frankly

nnenSe forces will be rallied for this Ohio
struggle The labor groups will put every
thing they have into the effort to defeat Taft.
Businessmen all over the country are
already laying the cash on the line to aid the
Taft campaign" 1t is expected that the Sen
ator will actually start campaigning very
soon-more than year before the election

THE MORNING NEWS SPEAKS

The Wilmington Morning News IN an
editorial under the caption "Just For A
Weathervane, on Wednesday morning said:
"AlI the machinery normally used for a
general election was oiled, fueled, and put
into motion yesterday throughout the State
of Delaware. This machinery was heavy and
expensive (The best estimate we can get is
around $4,000 as the cost0 The result was
a light vote in which majority of those vOt-
ing favored the immediate payment" OF
bonus for veterans of World War IL.
"Was this a referendum? In limited
sense, yes. 1t was an effort to get record
of public opinion on an issue. But it was not
a referendum in the sense that states con-
stitution may provide for clear-cut express
sion of public opinion on a clear-cut issue.
Our constitution does not so provide. Other
state constitutions do. The people can go to
their polls and make known their stand for
or against a proposal such as for example,
a highway construction bond issue of a spe-
CITED amount. Or they can decide-and by
voting enact new legislation-that certain
weIl-defined system or policy be put into ef-
feet
"The value of the constitutional referen-
dunn is still debated. But where it exists, for
better or for worse, its function is to enable
the public to make decision on some def
mite matter that can be figured in dollars
and cents or will make predictabe change
in the application of government.
"a genuine referendum is a means by
which a voter can express decision he is
willing and able to stick to-as our school
code provides refernda for construction
bonds What happened yesterday? They
called it referendum But can any intelli-
gent person who voted for or against the
bonus, on that basis, be sure that he will
stick to his guns later on? How can he pos
sibly say he is committing himself, when he
didn't know what he was voting on?
aside from the merits or demerits of a
bonus at this time, we say it was totally
uniustifed use of the election machinery to
make it mere weathervane. Only definite
proposals can show us how the wind really
blows"
The News certainly hit the nail on the
head.
