THE CART AND THE HORSE
In his address before the National
Conference on Government at Cleve
land Attorney-General Gilbert Bett-
man declared that ballot scratching
as an expression of the voter's in
dependence is weakening party lines
and bringing smaller men into gov
ernment, as well as pruning the ef
fectiveness of the party as a vehicle
through which majority will can be
registered on political issues.
The close relation existing between
voters who will not stay put in a
circle and the waning influence of
parties as such is clear enough. It is
possible, however, that Mr. Bett
mann put the electorate's cart be
fore the party horse. A tendency to
wander away fijom straight ticket
voting is less the cause of party in
stability than the effect of party re
fusal to run up a banner that voters
can see and follow.
The American political party ceas
ed long ago to be a real instrument
of policy, preferring to tread softly,
offend few, and keep or win position
at all costs. Especially in recent
years both Republican and Demo
cratic leaders have been reluctant,
or have refused entirely, to test ma
jority will by taking positions on
which that will might have been ex
pressed. All that was left to the in
dependent voter who felt strongly on
the issues was to slash his party ad
herence and vote for the men whose
personal views most closely coincided
with his own.
It is easy to agree with Mr. Bett
man that the remedy is not to abol
ish the party, but to substitute bet
ter leadership in it. It might be add
ed that the whole party philosophy
of the line of least political resist
ance must be discarded if the inde
pendent voter is to return, with good
conscience, to the rooster or the
eagle. Even if by miraculous unani
mity all the ballot scratchers return
ed to straight voting, they could not
effect one particle of the reform for
which the Attorney-General appeals.
That responsibility belongs solely to
the parties, and today there are some
scattering signs that one or both of
them may accept it.

REAL CHRISTIANITY
In the state of Ohio there is a
religious sect whose members call
themselves Amish. They live on
farms and shun the cities. They wear
queer, old-iasnionea ciotning; tne
women, long black dresses, the men.
long coats and square hats. They
will not use buttons on their gar
ments. They have no use for such
things as radios, autos, movies,
phonographs.
Queer? Yes, indeed. But the other
day an Amish community heard that
there were thousands of men in Cleve
land who could not get work and
who, in consequence, could not eat.
And at once the Amish loaded their
wagons with farm produce and trek
ed all the way to the city, to serve
free meals to the jobless.
In the book that Amish, along with
many other sects, revere as holy,
there is the observation: "By ye
fruits ye shall know them."
THE GOLD MYSTERY
One of the interesting theories of
the depression is advanced upon this
page today by E. M. H. Lloyd of the
British Empire Marketing Board It
is. in brief, a contention that the
purchasing power of the world has
been impaired by the scarcity of gold
in quarters which are accustomed to
using it in the ordinary channels of
trade.
That economists will agree that
this is the primary cause of the de
pression is doubtful. There is, how
ever, such a body of authoritative
opinion behind the theory that it
commands respect. The debate upon
the subject serves to show that we
are far from understanding why the
world is in its present plight. We
know that it resulted from the World
War, but just how is a matter for
such expert opinion that the voice of
the professional economist is about
the only voice that commands re
spect. The mystery as to gold if; re
lated in the following from Editorial
Research Reports:
A report of the League of Na
tions gold delegation, published
last month, predicts that tne
world's production of gold will
begin sharply to diminish by
1934. In the Rand district of
South Africa the gold output is
expected to decline 7 5 per cent
in the next 20 years. Nor is the
delegation hopeful that new
sources of gold will be discov
ered. It points out that only
certain desert areas of Australia,
Central Asia and the Sudan,
along with the tropical wilder
nesses in which the Amazon and
the Orinoco rise, have not yet
been thoroughly combined over
in man's age-old quest for the
yellow metal.
The panic of 1893, like the
depression of 1930, was explain
ed in many quarters by a de
creasing supply of gold, and
hence of money. Good business
conditions returned to the Unit
ed States at about the time that
the world's stock of gold be
gan materially to increase
whether or no this was cause
and effect. The business revival
which ushered in prosperity got
under way in 1879. The annual
average of the world's gold pro
duction from 1881 to 1890 was
5,200,000 fine ounces; in 1893
it went to 7,600,000; in 1895,
to 9.600,000; in 1897, to 11,
400,000, and in 1900, to 12,
300.000. This great increase in gold
production was due, first, to new
discoveries in South Africa and
the Klondike; and, secondly, to
more economical methods of re
covering gold from the ore.
Those who refuse today to be
come pessimistic about the sup
ply of gold in the years ahead
hope that new methods will be
found whereby gold may be ob
tained as a by-product from oth
er metals. When the value of
gold increases in terms of goods,
and the costs of labor and mater
ials become lower, gold may be
obtained as a by-product from
other metals. When the value
of gold increases in terms of
goods, and the costs of labor and
materials become lower, gold
may be profitably obtained from
mines that shut down to avoid
operating at a loss while gold
was comparatively cheap and
costs were high. Those holding
the gold theory believe a more
efficient distribution of the
world's supply of gold, possibly
at the instigation of the Bank
for International Settlements,
would tend to remedy the pres
ent gold shortage in some coun
tries. Also, since gold is used
as a reserve against credit, im
proved banking technique may
reduce the proportion of gold
held against the nation's cur
rencies without impairing pub
lic confidence in those curren
cies. Other considerations are
that peace in India, China and
the return of prosperity in the
Occidental nations should restore
to circulation much gold now
being hoarded, while less and
less gold coin is being required
every year as currency through
out the world.
Those that do not accept the
theory that prices necessarily
vary with the supply of gold
insist that this is too simple a
theory to be applicable to so
complicated a phenomenon as to
day's business world, with its
many and varied forms of ex
panding or restricting credit.
This school lays the present de
cline in prices rather to a de
cline in demand due to overpro
duction in the past and lack of
purchasing power at present.
Our observation is that the theory
advanced by Mr. Lloyd is gaining
ground. There is no answer to it in
the current New Republic by George
Soule. Mr. Soule goes so far as to
disagree entirely with the theory that
a managed currency would prevent
a repetition of the present catas
trophe, and fears that it might even
make matters worse. That is, his is
the school which does not believe that
production can do more than halt
when it overreaches itself. He says
of the counter theory:
We might learn that in order
to maintain sufficient popular
purchasing power we must, at a
time when improved technique is
increasing production and reduc
ing costs almost everywhere, al
low prices to fall. Perhaps the
distribution of purchasing power

PEACE AND GOOD WILL
Tne President's words on Armis
tice Day were words of peace and
good will. He spoke on the high note
of a cosmic humanity. But he recog
nized that times and conditions are
not such as to warrant a blind devo
tion to abstract principles. He sees
the world as it is. To the extent
that may be prudently possible he
urges the continuance of all efforts
toward peace.
No one wants war. No soldier
who has experienced the exigencies
and horrors of conflict desires to re
peat such experience. Hence the
great Captain of America's armies
overseas. General John Pershing on
Armistice Day added his voice to
those who cry for peace; but with
the knowledge won from experience
and the lessons of all past history.
he declared it to be the duty of liv
ing veterans, and of potential de
fenders of the Republic, to keep well
in mind the right destinies of the
Nation and for that Nation to be at
all times prepared, should war come,
to meet it in a state of material as
well as spiritual preparation.
Over in London, England, the
Prince of Wales speaking to former
service men warned his countrymen
against letting the youth of the land
forget the horrors of war. He warn
ed that the coming generation is in
danger of knowing little or nothing
of the recent great war, and declar
ed it to be a high duty of the British
Legion and the British people to see
to it that memory of the war never
shall fade and that the youth of the
Empire never shall be left in ignor
ance and unpreparedness.
So, throughout the world, the best
minds, the most distinguished repre
sentatives of the public good, made
their voices heard, agreeing that ra
tional peace is the world's noblest
goal, but making it plain that this
shining goal is not to be reached by
a blind trust alone in the virtues
and powers of an inept altruism.
