FAILURE OF COM
MUNISM IN AMERICA
The Daily Worker, American Com
munist organ, make3 a confession in
its columns that ought to gratify
those who have apprehended that
Communism might gain a foothold
in the United States. "In spite of
the radicalization of the masses of
the workers," the red weekly de
clares, "the party has not developed
into a revolutionary mass party of
the proletariat."
If this gratifies those who have
fought Communism, however, their
satisfaction ought not to go to the
point of exultation over the effective
ness of their work. The counter-campaign
against Communism is not
what has saved the American worker
from the radical theories of this
movement. The chief foe of Commun
ism is not the organized, hysterical
superpatriots who have fearfully
fought the foe within our gates. The
greatest enemy of Communism, and
of other forms of radicalism envis
ioning revolutionary changes in Am
erican government, is the American
worker himself. Those who have ap
prehended the Communistic over
throw of the United States have never
understood the rsistince to such a
movement inherent in the laboring
classes of this country.
Even in time of depression, even
in a period of unemployment with
all its attendant incitement to dis
content, Communism simply has net
caught on in America. Those who
feared that a philosophy imposed
from Moscow might make American
workers its converts displayed a
singular lack of confidence and un
derstanding of the character and
psychology of the American worker.
They should have known that even
hard times would not turn the lib
erals in the ranks of labor to this
j brand of radicalism. Editorial Opin
ion of the St. Paul Dispatch.

ABUSES APPARENT -
IN PAROLE SYSTEM
It is becoming increasingly evi
dent that the principle of the pa
role system and of the pardoning
power vested in executives is com
pletely overlooked by boards charged
with the duty of dealing with appli
cations for leniency to imprisoned
wrongdoers.
In many cases persons caught by
the police in the act of committing
serious crimes are found to be pa
roled convicts. The latest reported
local instance is shocking, but by no
means exceptional. Three former
convicts, with long police records
were arrested at North Riverside for
holding up, robbing and terrorizing
two girls and their escorts. Two of
tle three offenders carried revolvers,
and the third had a shotgun and two
revolvers. Each had been paroled
several times, although, apparently,
in each case conviction had been
thoroughly justified.
The conclusion is unavoidable that
the average parole board is influ
enced unduly by considerations that
are alien to the principle of the pa
role Ej-stem and incompatible with
social safety. No convict serving a
sentence for a grave crime should be
given freedom unless, in the judg
ment of independent criminologists,
hi3 conduct in prison entitles him
to clemency, and unless there are
good reasons for believing that he
will endeavor to support himself by
honest work. To free a convict with
out the assurance that a job awaits
him is to incur a social risk and sub
ject the convict himself to well-ngin
irrestible temptation. The idle ex-
conrlct is too prone to resume his
former connections in the underworld
and relapse Into criminal ways.
There is too much carelessness, sen
timentality and pull in the admini3-
tration of the Intrinsically humane
parole system. Those abuses tend to
discredit . tho principle of the sys
tem. Furthermore, parole boards are
allowed too . much discretion. The
legislature might well limit their
power, and bar from parole . persons
imprisoned for second or third of
fences. Such persons are habitual
criminals, and, as such, in some
states would be serving life centencea.
To them, mistaken leniency is equiv-
aslnt to license to renew war on civil
ized communities. Chicago Daily
News.
UNEMPLOYED REMAIN
A HEAVY HANDICAP
Folks who are sitting back and
watching for. the difficulties that will
beset the administration's recovery
program will see plenty. Things now
are. not going just right. Prices rise
faster than wages, which is another
way of saying the purchasing power
lag3 behind an overstimulated pro
duction. The blanket code idea is develop
ed to meet this situation in some
measure. There are so many indus
tries to come under codes, with the
blessing of "Nira," and so much time
is required for public hearings on
the codes when drafted, that an ap
peal is made to all industry to come
voluntarily at once under the blan
ket code establishing shorter hours
and increased wages. This would be
supplanted as soon as an industry
had adopted its own special code.
General Johnson urges this step in
co-operation with the government on
the ground that "the distortion of
increased prices is so rapid and the
lag of purchasing power so great
that it is plain we cannot stage in
dustrial recovery with 12 million
men out of work."
The administrator's estimate of 12
million men still out of work is near
enough to the truth for all practical
purposes. The unemployed remain a
heavy handicap to any recovery pro
gram. The secretary of labor, Miss
Perkins, estimates that in June 500
thousand persons found work and
that since March employment had
gained 14 per cent. How welcome
that has been needs no demonstra
tion. But, after all, recovery is
bound to be fairly blow work with
occasional setbacks. Hence the ap
peal to all industrialists to shorten
hours so as to make the jobs go far
ther among the jobless.
During the special session the Black
bill, which passed the senate, pro
vided for a 30-hour week in all indus
tries producing goods entering in
terstate commerce. It was much
criticized because it-provided for r,Pj
minimum wage. It was finally sup
planted by the industrial recovery
act. It is now recalled to remind one
that the origin of the recovery act
was a bill to shorten the wrok day
and spread employment. With the
shorter number of hours now goes,
howrever, a higher wage, also, in the
government's plan.
If controversies and hearings de
lay the adoption of jnanyj industrial
codes, the complete program may
easily go awry, with loss of
public
-ill be-
connuence. 1'uulic works w
started too slowly to have an immed
iate effect on the people's purchas
ing power. The blanket code scheme
is an emerger.cy-within-an-emerg-ency
measure designed to enlist at
once the voluntary co-operation of
employers everywhere in a job
spreading movement at the higher
wage level.
Unless voluntary employer action
is spreading jobs and raising wages!
can be assured, the economic difficul
ties now encountered elsewhere in
the speculative markets may combine
with "Nira's" lopsided progress to
precipitate another crisis not a
major crisis necessarily, yet involving
perhaps a resort by the administra
tion to its currency inflation powers
to prevent a serious reaction. There
has been thus far no actual inflation
of the currency to stimulate busi
ness; we may well dread any actual
resort to it. Springfield Republican.

NOW ALL TOGETHER!
In this big push for recovery the
American people are being called up
on for mass action of an unprece
dented sort in peace time. They are
being asked to proceed unitedly, in a
spirit of co-operation and mutual
helpfulness, to the end that millions
of unemployed may find work, that
purchasing power may be built up,
that there may be restored a normal
demand for goods, that decent stand
ards of living may be established and
maintained for all, and that the coun
try definitely shall be released from
the grip of a 4-year depression with
its attendandant hardship, suffering
and paralysis of business.
It is a stupendous undertaking per
ilous in some respects, marked with
practical difficulties in others, seem
ingly impossible of achievement in
still others. Yet it is challenging in
its very nature. It is an imperious
summons to the sort of hazardous en
terprise, to the daring, the initiative
and the community, neighborly spirit
that has been displayed by the Amer
ican people time after time in periods
6f trial as in periods of signal accom
plishment while the land was being
settled, cities were being built, the
forces of nature being brought un
der control and obstacles of a thou
sand kinds were being overcome.
If the American spirit of old can
be awakened and turned to the task,
this new thing can be done. Cer
tainly the human , resources of the
nation should be more powerful than
Ui3 economic influences that have
brought the country to its present
pass. There cannot be the attitude
of defeatism, of helplessness and de
spair. That is unworthy of any peo
ple. America can marshal its forces and
proceed irresistibly to a betterment
of conditions that no longer are tol
erable. The call is to everybody.
There are few who cannot respond,
the effort be made With deter-
initiation and a will, and the results
WH follow. Kansas City Star.

HARD-HITTING JOHNSONS
A formidable and two-fisted clan
are the Johnsons. There was Dr.
Samuel Johnson,' the fierce old lion
of Gough street, whose epigrams have
not lost their bite after almost two
centuries. Andrew Johnson, as presi-
dent of the United States, battled so
liar r bis policies that it took an
impeachment to put a quietus on him.
Tom Johnson, mayor of Cleveland
rought for the people's cause when
municipal ownership was a radical
; heresy. Among the statesmen of our
own days are Hiram, and Magnus,
both redoubtable and eloquent foe-
men in debate. The dry crusade has
a Johnson, too llliani E., or
"Pussyfoot" who eave an eye to
the cause and had the rare distinc
tion to withdraw rrom the field on
realizing that "this effort to make
people good by ' law has its draw
backs." Baseball's Walter Johnson
combined fiery speed and calm con
trol with an intelligence that pro
longed his pitching career to veteran
status.
And now another of the family
hold3 the public spotlight General
Hugh S. Johnson, sturdy former cav
alry officer, now head of the recov
ery administration, intrepidly facing
the herculean task of putting a stag
gering country oh its feet again. He
has the aggressive characteristics of
preceding Johnsons Sam's acid
phrase - making ' talent, Andrew's
blunt eloquence, Tom's public-spirit-edness,
Pussyfoot's Sense of humor,
Walter's speed. ' With this quint
essence of the Johnsonian qualities
on the job at Washington, issuing
successively persuasion, inspiration,
warnings and drastic orders, things
are beginning to him all over the in

EYES OF THE WORLD
. ON AMERICAN PEOPLE
Much more is at stake than the
immediate well-being of the Amer
ican people in a world of nations
which must live if they are to live
prosperously by tho law of inter-
independence. The progress of the
American experiment should be
watched with deep and friendly in
terest. Its success should be devout
ly desired everywhere.
The old system had failed of its
ow n excesses. It had illustrated once
again, but more disastrously than
ever, the truth that long enjoyment
of advantages tends to destroy in
men the very qualities which enable
them to create what they enjoyed.
It was for the president to sum
mon into being forces external to
the old order, which might control
it, and to order a battle, in which,
as he has now raid, "co-operation
which comes from opinion and con
science" must make headway against
desire for "selfish advantage."
Time is of the essence cf Mr. Roose
velt's contract, and the administra
tion of the recovery act is a slow
and complex process, rapid and dra
matic intervention was imperative,
and lii3 appeal will draw double
strength from the office he holds and
from his own personality.
Today, by the turn oi the poli
tical wheel, the White house is oc
cupied by a man exceptionally gift
ed in the qualities demanded of lead
ership in a democracy, and by the
force of dire emergency thiz man is
vested with powers no less than his
need.
Mr. Roosevelt, perhain more than
any other president rir.ee his great
namesake, knows and can adjust
himself to those cubtle, clusivo and
variable elements whic?i go to make
public opinion. He is a past master
in the art of political action, an art
wehercin timing of the stroke is of
hardly less importance than the
stroke itself.
It is not in Mr. Roosevelt any
more than in ether mortals to com
mand success, tut ho richly deserves
it. .
"I cannot," ho sHd, "guarantee the
success of this nationwide plan, but
the people of the country can guar
antee its success," and, r.o saying, ho
makes an appeal to tho primary vir
tue of civilized man, his car? city for
living and working with other men
in faith and loyalty.
"Failure," he rays, would mean
"another desperate winter," and he
might with truth have added it
would mean a return to Washington
of a congress eager to reassert itself,
and ready to ordain the most ex
treme forms of monetary inflation.
It is no longer the president who
is on trial, for he has given of his
best. It is upon the American peo
ple as a whole that the eyes of the
outer world will be turned. London

MANY DIFFICULTIES
IN APPLYING CODES
Among the many difficulties in
herent in creating tuch a revolution
ary system of industry a3 that in
volved in the national recovery act,
one major problem is emerging. Thi3
is the problem of adapting a single
set of regulations to the varying con
ditions of American industry.
Normally wages and living and
working conditions vary not only by
regions, but by masses of population
and the size of the industry. Broad
ly the south has a different situation
from the north; the small town a
different situation from the large
city; the small industrial unit a dif
ferent situation from the large unit.
jThese differences r.r? emerging
sharply in the hearing! now going
on under the direction of General
Hugh S. Johnson, chief of the recov
ery administration. The small oil op
erators are insisting on a different
code from that of tlie big companies,
and so on down the line.
Attempts were made in framing
the blanket code to give it sufficient
elasticity to meet vc.ryir.g conditions.
But it is becoming apparent that
not nearly all the differences could
have been foreseen r.:id provided for.
Thus there are ir.ny small stores,
especially in the smaller towns, that
are hanging on by their eyebrows.
If they are forced to raise wages and
to employ more clerks, they will be
put out of businer3. They dmpiy
haven't the reserves to finance the
increased expenses while awaiting
the expected improvement in busi
ness.
General Johnson says he will ad
minister the recovery act by the
"squawk system" that is by mak
ing changes when complaints show
that changes are necessary. But there
is great danger that a war psychol
ogy to force everybody under the
wings of Johnson's "blue hawk" may
causo widespread hardship or even
disaster to small industries. This dis
aster easily might overtake them be
fore the adjustments contemplated

Nazi Germany just now affords a
perfect example of the terrorism that
may result from appeals to the mob
spirit. America ought to be able to
make its great experiment in indus
trial recovery without resorting to
such destructive appeals. The boy
bctt that might come from inciting
pcoplo against concerns that were
not able to come under the "blue?
hawk" is the next thing to the Nazi
rubber club that is used to line up
the German people in accordance
with tho government's dictates.
The administration is anxious to
carry out this great and hopeful in
novation with the least possible un
fairness and with a minimum of un
favorable results. There should be
very great care that the campaign
to put it over should not involve such
an exciting of mass psychology as to
arouse bitter hatreds within commun
ities, or to bring ruin on business
men who for the time may not be
able to meet the terni3 of the blanket
code.
Americans are patriotic. They are
anxious to co-operate in the great
recovery effort. It should be possible
to enlist their help in the program
to the limit of their ability without
resorting to anything approaching
the system that produces cruel boy
cotts and blind terrorism. Kansas
