Local Gridders PLAY
Whiteville Friday

Tabor City's rebounding foot
ball team, making itself felt in the
conference race for the first time
this season in recent games, takes
on talented Whiteville eleven on
the Whiteville home field Friday
night at 800.
Whiteville, an arch-rival of the
local high school in all sports, has
been near the top in the confer
ence standing this season while
the locals have suffered enough
defeats to be well out of the run
ming.
However, last week the Tabor
boys put 1914 lacing on strong
Hamlet eleven that was far from
expected and the showing was
enough to guarantee a top notch
performance Friday night.
In the Hamlet game, the locals
combined a good passing game
with some steller ground maneuv-
ering along with defensive
strength that was sufficient to
earn a deserving victory for Tabor
City.
It was one of the best all around
performances of the season for
the inexperienced Red Devils and
most observers of that contest be-
lieve a similar showing Friday
would be good enough to knock
off the favored county seat aggre-
cation.
This contest will close out the
1852 football season for Tabor
City.

The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1952-02-07

A vigorous, voluble man, great
writer Of letters and maker of
speeches, Mr.. Kcyserling appears
never to cherish the slightest doubt
of the correctness Of his own opin-
ions and always expresses them force
fully. Since the present crisis arose,
several things have contributed to the
belief that his economic views are
inseparable from the spending poll
cies with which for so many years he
has been saturated. For one thing
he is on record as suggesting that
nondefense expenditures can increase
with defense expenditures. Every now
and then he says something about
economy, but if non-defense eXpendi-
lures are not to be curtailed, it is
hard to understand the Keyserling
idea On this question he does not see
eye to eye with Senator Byrd or Mr..
Hoover and certainly not with the
National Association of Manufacture
ers or any other agency which has
called for nOndefensc reductions of
from $4,O0O,OOO,OOO to $4,000, 900 900.
For another thing he is not entirely
in accord with Mr.. Baruch as to infla-
ton controls. which include a really
effective ceiling on wages as we'll as
on profits. Actually, Mr.. Keyserling
has lent support to wage increases
followed by price increases which
have promoted initiation A week or so
ago on a television program he ex-
pressed his view that the steel
workers should have an increase and
the steel companies, perhaps, small
increase in prices. Asked if this would
not promote imitation, he was vague
and cvasive. This expression of views
from a Government official was
sharply criticized as being highly i'm
proper while negotiations were going
on and the Government trying to
force an agreement. Also it has been
reported in print that War Mobilizer
Wilson regards Mr. Keyserling's eco
nomic advice as definitely unhclpful.
The Keyscrling theme song is that
production takes care of practically
everything. If that rises then the
national income rises, and all is we'll,
But evein more offensive to the
hard-hcaded men in the defense ef-
fort than its slightly weird economic
theories is the suspicion that the

THE GREAT
GAME OF
POLITICS
Biased Advice Is Bad

Most persons will agree that if
there is any Administration agency
which should be free from politics
and partnership, it is the so-called
Presidents Council of Economic Adj
vsers. This group headed by Mr. Leon
Keyserling, is supposed to keep the
President informed as to the eco
nomic situation and make recon-
mendations upon which he can rely as
sound
In other words, its function is to
give him facts, ANALYSIS and inter
probation upon which to base his eco
monte policies. Clearly, if these are
biased the advice of the council be-
comes worthless. A good many in
formed persons think it is exactly
that. They have increasingly felt that
way since the distinguished DR.. Ed
win G.. Nourse retired as its head be-
cause he could not follow Administra-
tion lines. At that time there was OPP
position to the appointment as his
successor of Mr. Keyserling, who
had been completely identified with
the New Deal and Fair Deal policies
from the time of their inception in
1888.
He then was legislative clerk to
the late Senator Robert Wagner, au-
thor of the Wagner Labor Act and
hero of the labor union bosses.
Later he held a succession of New
Deal jobs, mostly with the Housing
Authority, finally becoming vice
chairman of the economic council, and
with DR.. Nourse's departure chairman
The impression prevails in various
quarters that what Mr.. keyscrling
really does is fit the economic facts
into the New Deal and Fair Deal
theories rather than interpret them
realistically and without prejudice
Perhaps this is natural and not in
territorial, For nearly twenty years
he has been completely stepped in the
New Deal-Fair Deal economic poll
cies, in the soundness of which I'M
doubtedly he sincerely believes.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1952-02-07

council can never be free from Adj
ministration politics and therefore,
can never give the President disin-
terested and sound advice. This sus-
picion was strengthened by the re-
cent appointment Of Mr.. Bertram NJ.
Gross, executive secretary of the
Council of Economic Advisers, to the
staff Of the Democratic National Com
mittee. The announcement was made
by Chairman Mckinney, approved by
President Truman and repeatedly
recommended by Mr.. Keysering. The
function of Mr.. Gross will be to as
semble and interpret the financial
facts of the nation so that the noble
Democratic candidates and propagan-
das in the coming campaign can an
swer the wicked Republican charge
of reckless spending, unrestrained
waste, unmanageable debt and deficit.
1t is asserted that Mr.. Gross is Just
the man to do this, that this is really
what he does anyhow, that the only
difference now is that he will put in
all of his time at it and be paid by
the Democratic committee. Consider
ing all these things, it seems a strain
on anyone's credulity to regard the
advice of the economic council as
wholly unbiased. And if it isn't that,
