warning that deficit-financ-
ing was not needed. And this
has happened in a period
when increased production
efficiency should have lower
ed prices.
On the other hand. If we
were again faced with a sit
uation like the collapse Of
1929, Congress could not
act promptly enough to pre-
vent the starting Of the down.
ward vicious cycle. Moreover,
it Is not reasonable to expect
men selected for positions of
broad responsibilities to have
the expert knowledge Of eco
Monies necessary to diStin-
guish the times and estimate
the amounts when deficit fl
nancing is desirable.
If the Administration, or
the Republican Party, want to
make history in a construc-
tive way. let them devise, and
if possible enact, a law in
creaSing the powers Of the
Federal Reserve Board so
that it can deal as success
fully with a major dislocation
OF the economy as it now
does with minor ones. This
would require giving the
board control Of the Federal
debt. Deficits and debt repay
ment would be used to supple
ment or counterfeit changes
in the total of commercial
loans. Congress would still
determine the purposes and
prioritieS of the expendi-
lures, and the administration
would carry out the approved
projects according to the
funds available each quarter.
And what Of the unem-
ployed? Encourage the States
to carry out adequate pro-
grams of training for the un-
employed, and since not
many of them can be train
ed for existing vacancies, de-
hberately increase the de-
mand for unSkilled workers.
For example, We could step
up work on beautifying parks
and highways. We could also
encourage more attention to
the appearance Of private
property.

CHEST Importance to under
stand Dr.. Adenauer's reading
Of the German experience.
DR.. Adenauer does not be-
heye that German people
lurehed into Hitlerism be-
cause Of their defeat in
World War I or the penalties
imposed by the treaty of
Versailles. When Ludendorff
Joined with Hitler In the first
five years Of peace. the Mum
ich revolt failed disastrously
and Hitler went to jail. That
was Germany's Judgment on
the Nazi Party while the
country could still think
freely and without fear of
brutal coercion. It was q diff
ferent story years later when
Germany was gripped by the
depression, when millions of
unemployed gave an explo-
stve edge to populous agita-
ton, when other party lead
ers entered into q shameful
alliance with Hitler, and
when the plumbers Of the de-
mocracies allowed an unop-
posed Hitler to snatch a sue
ceSsion Of spectacular victo-
ries. Nor did DR.. Adenauer
ever forget, what world OPT
MON so easily forgot, that
Hitler had used the pitiless
power Of the Gestapo to
break the liberal leaders Of
the German people long be-
fore the Nazi war m a hine
became an instrument Of ter
ror to brighten Europe into
slavery. -
Saw Faith In Freedom
At all events, DR.. Adenauer
rested his whole career on
the conviction that there Is a
faith in freedom among the
German people that can
make them dependable allies
Of the free world. The period
since the Marshall Plan Is
too brief. measured in histor-
ical terms, for this question
to be settled beyond all dis
pute. But at least West Ger
many. under the guidance of
DR.. Adenauer, has given an
answer which holds the
promise Of st liability and
peace. Germany has ended
its quarrel with France, has
become q founding member
Of the Common Market, and
has earned respect as a vail
ant partner In the NATO
community. All these gains
must be remembered to AIDE
nauer's credit when one
thinks Of his barren record
on disarmaments, on security
arrangements for Central
Europe, on easier relations
with Russia.
As DR.. Ludwig Erhard pre-
pares to succeed DR.. Adenau-
er, there Is a bundant evi-
dence that West Germany
remains steadfast In its COM
m ttment TO democracy. II
that promise Is fulfilled over
the long years, then Or. Ade-
nauer will be much more
than a great German. He viii

peans who have brought new

THE PASSING SCENE
Adenouer's Faith in Freedom
By MAX FREEDMAN

Or. Konrad r. Adenauer,
who has resigned as chancel-
Tor Of West Germany, has
become q legend even though
he has ceased TO be q states
man. For the last three or
four years his career has
been q feeble parody Of his
great period. He has lived on
echoes from the past while
Europe struggles toward to a
new age. Yet with all his
blots and infirmities, he must
be considered the greatest
German lea der since Bis
marck.
Like Bismarck, he has left
9 heritage that Is at once
splendid and equivocal. Bis
marck created Germany as a
powerful state while shun-
ming an adventurous policy
that would make her too
dangerous for the rest Of Eu-
rope. His success in war was
remembered. but his res
traint in diplomacy was for
gotten; and in the end his
perverted example led Ger
many to disaster.
Leaves Problems
DR.. Adenauer leaves his
country divided without any
hope Of early unity. the fu-
ture Of Berlin is still an enig-
ma, and the German problem
darkens the debate over the
security Of Europe. Not long
after the war. DR.. Adenauer
in a speech pointed to the
ruined cathedral in Cologne,
and the devastation of the
city, as evidence Of the fai-
lures and follies Of Hitler.
Instead Of bringing his peo-
pie to the mastery of the
world, Hitler had cursed
Germany with sorrow and
hate beyond the measure of
men. An experiment which
had been so fully tried, and
which had crashed in such
painful and humiliating fai-
lure, need never be repeated.
This practical demonstra-
ton Of the tears and blood
caused by Hitler was one way
to shake the Germans out Of
the calamItous cruelties of
the Nazi era. But DR.. Adenau-
er had the right to q more
searching argument. He
could also appeal to the con-
science and judgment Of the
German people, for he had
looked beyond the tri-
umphant arrogance of Hitler
to the inevitable doom which
awaited the German people
while they followed this evil
leadership. Moreover. he had
presented this challenge not
when the tide had begun to
turn against Hitler but while
the Nazis still bullied Germa-
ny into servitude.
Unless DR.. Adenauer is
right in regarding Hitlerism
as a sinister alteration, and
not as q logical expression Of
German history and German
character, there can be no
enduring prospect that West
Germany will continue to
follow the paths Of peace and
d democracy. 1t therefore be-
comes q matter Of the hi
