Los ANGELES. Sept. IA
FOLLOWING is the tert OF Coo.
TEteuenSon'S speech at the Los
Angeles ToiUn HoH yesterday:
was born in Los Angeles. I
have often thought that if my
parents had to remove me at a
very early age. the least they
could have done was to endow
me a few lots in the center of
Los Angeles. 1t might have been
q easier way to earn a living.
Last time I was in this room was
in May of 10 years ago in 1912
with my beloved and celebrated
boss at that time, Col. Frank
Knox, then Secretary of the
Navy. He made much better
speech to you that time than I
will today. And know because
I wrote both of them.
Now I am persuaded that con-
genitally. as we'll as candidate,
talk entirely too much. I think
of those imperishable words of
Disraeli when a callow new men,
ber of the House of Commons
approached him and said earn
estly, "Mr. Prime Minister, do
you think should participate
very actively in the debateS?"
And Disraeli gave him an ap-
praiSing glance and said to him,
mo, don't think you had bet
ter. I think it would be better
If the House were to wonder why
you didn't talk, rather than why
you did" Personally, I couldn't
agree more.
But a candidate has to talk, I
suppose, and I think he should
talk as plainly as possible about
public questions, to admit what
he doesn't know and what he
can't answer. If he purported to
know the right answer to every
thing, he, would be either a
knave or a fool. If he even had
an answer to everything he
would probably be just a fool.
II he had no emphatic views
at all, he would probably be
just as untrustworthy: and If he
was evasive, he would probably
be either cunning or a political
coward, of which we have al
together too many; and finally,
If he should arrive at election
time with almost everybody
satisfied, then you should by
all means vote against him as
the most dangerous charlatan Of
them all.
In other words, you of Town
Hall who try to vote intelli-
gently have quite a chore. From
my brief experience in Illinois,
I am persuaded that fortnight
discussion of the real public
questions is neither beneath the
dignity of political candidates
or above the intelligence of the
American people, and it most
certainly is the condition prece-
dent to any intelligent choice
except by the faculty of intui-
ton, which is by no means in
fallible in these days of ghosts

lie service. We do not lose faith
In the banking system because
a few bankers turn out to be
embezzlers. When you realize
that American private business
Is swindled out Of more than
81 billion each year by its en-
ployeS. from clerks to executives,
it Is not too remarkable, how
ever deplorable, that govern
ment should occasionally be
swindled.
For the information of the
public and the morale of the
multitude of decent, faithful
men and women on whom
government depends, it is just
as important to recognize and
support the good as it is to
rout out and to punish the bad.
It bodies no good for the public
service where recruitment is
none too easy anyway, what
with the salary competition of
private business, when honest
conscientious public servants
quit because they don't care to
be abused and ridiculed any
longer,

Sawyer Asks Caution

BY me Assoeiaisd Press

Commerce Secretary Sawyer
said last night business Is stand

but he indicated Congress should
move cautiously before raising
rates any more.
I'm My opinion we are approach-
ing the point where you arrive at
the operation Of the law Of dimin-

concerned" he said.
There are limits beyond which
you lose the value Of incentive
both in the individual and the
business income. That must be
watched carefully by those who
are plotting our tax program. At
the moment, business is able to
carry the burden.
+ Indications ares that Congress
will not act on President Truman's s
request for an additional tax hike

a handful under detention and
other times there are from 40 to
so, particularly on q week end. :"
The policewomen's male coun-
terparts handle most Of the actual
arresting.
AS for uniforms, the bureau
did issue them at one time, in
the 1920s-just navy blue suits
with no insignia, sweaters and
raincoats-but when they went
out of style, they weren't re-
newed. 1t. Gainey said.
1--WE thought that. in approach
ing social problems and going into
homes, we would be more ac-
ceptable and do our work in al
less obvious way without being

The new Women's Bureau chief
said she has no plans for chang
ing the procedures.
MY only hope is that I, with
the help Of our co-workerS. canI
carry on the same ideal Of serv-l

through all her time there. That
would be the very best that could

It is that satisfaction in public
service that 1t. Gainey holds outl
