WORKING FOR THE GOVERNMENT
The rewards for faithful Govern

ironically illustrated than in the 1 -cent
death of Joseph S. McCoy, gov
ernment actuary and Federal emplo; e
for 40 years.
To McCoy's obscure little offi e
went the great men of Washington
to "be sure my figures are correct."
Mr. McCoy estimated Government
revenues, tariff returns, data on U.
S. securities, future population. He
dealt in millions and billions, ard
governmental departments geared
their work to his answers. Indeed,
one of his jobs was to issue monthly
a circular showing daily market

THE JEFFEBSONIAN HOOVER
Mr. Hoover's Lincoln day address
might, perhaps, be called an outline
of the philosophy of American demo
cracy. The principles laid down by
the founders of our Government are
familiar, but it is well, nevertheless,
that men in public life should, on
occasion, restate them. We are ac
customed to the warning words spok
en by the President but the truths
he reiterated bear repetition. All of
us listening to them give our intel
lectual approval.
Nobody questions that the corner
stone of our governmental structure
is local self-government. Still, there
is a sort of moral tonic in hearing a
President assert:
The moment responsibilities
of any community, particularly
in economic and social ques
tions, are shifted from any part
of the nation to Washington,
then that community has sub
jected itself to a remote bureau
cracy with its minimum of un
derstanding and of sympathy.
It has lost a large part of its
voice and its control of its own
destiny. . . . Where people di
vest themselves of local govern
ment responsibilities they at
once lay the foundation for the
destruction of their liberties.
This is a political gospel which
the Post-Dispatch has preached
throughout its entire existence. It is
a faith to which we all profess de
votion. In actual practice, however.
many of us are prone to sacrifice the
belief at the first call of expediency.
Moreover, if we can't accomplish im
mediately the dominant purpose of a
transitory mood we impatiently try
"to remold it nearer to our hear't
desire" by appealing to Washington.
Traditions wilt in the fierce blasts of
propaganda. We are bound to have
our way. If we cannot get it by the
processes of democracy then we fly
to bureaucracy.
We have gone far along this road
farther than most of us suspect.
As diligent and competent a public
man as former Senator Wadsworth
of New York declared, several years
ago, of our Government at Washing
ton that it was so huge, interlocked
and bewildering that nobody could
understand it. In the same vein Sen
ator Borah once remarked that "of
I all forms of governments yet devis-
led. bureaucracy is the worst." The
Chief Justice of our Supreme Court.
Mr. Hughes, if we remember rightly,
observed that if the states did not
exist it would be necessary to create
them. Thus these dignitaries of the
Hamiltonian heritage sit at the feet
of Jefferson, even as Lincoln did
when he wrote: "The principles of
Jefferson are the definitions and
axioms of free society."
Mr. Hoover is, therefore, in the
company of high contemporary as
'well as historical authority when he
to do is obvious to discharge our
self finally into intelligent voting.
The cure of our political evils rests
Mr. Hoover takes cognizance of
changing conditions. "Our concept
of Federal, state and local responsi
bilities is possible of no unchange
able definitions," he says, "and must
shift with the moving forces of the
nation, but the time has come when
we must have more national consid
eration of decision of the part which
;each shall assume in these responsi
bilities." It has. Indeed, the time
has come for a retreat to first prin
ciples, for the correction of mistakes,
for reassuming obligations we have
consigned to the bureaucracy at
Washington. And the time will pres
ently be here, we believe, when aca
demic consideration of our political
principles will not suff ice when pub
lic officials will have to identify our
mistaken policies and advocate their
repeal.
When our leaders rise to those
heights of courage and candor we
shall then have started on our way
back to home rule. St. Louis Post
Dispatch. :o:
THE ELKH0UND ARRIVES
A Norwegian elkhound has arrived

PROLONGING A COSTLY FAILURE
i It is not likely that the present
i Congress, nor any legislative body
for some time to come, will be in a
mood to give the Grain Exchanges a
deliberate death blow and to estab
lish a perpetual Government corner
in produce. This may be done, how
ever, by degrees. "Stabilization" in
the cotton market has virtually put
the Cotton Exchange out of business,
supplying nothing but chaos and un
certainty in its place. Stabilization
in wheat did less damage to estab
lished means of trade and distribu
tion because of the vastly greater
bulk of product flowing through the
central exchanges.
As if in disappointment that Fed
eral tampering with the natural cur
rent of trade has not entirely de
moralized grain markets and grain
distribution, the Capper-Dickinson
bill is introduced. It would restrict
the volume of speculation, and is
clearly a measure meant to barm
established traders rather than to
help either grain farmers or the ulti
mate consumers of the product. Mr.
Legge has admitted that the bill, as
it stands, will seriously cut trading
in hedges, but that the full regula
tion proposed in the measure prob
ably will fail. In this case he sees
prohibition of short selling as the
next step.
And with this step the Grain Ex
changes go out of business. There
would then fall upon the Govern
ment to provide facilities for the
buying, selling, distribution of grain.
What would this substitute machin
ery be? No one knows; but the Capper-Dickinson
bill is ready to throt
tle all the useful function of the
Grain Exchanges before any possible
substitute for them is evolved. Deal
ing in grain would take on the fright
ened, hand-to-mouth character now
found in cotton dealings. And by
natural progression from such a meas
ure as the Capper-Dickinson bill the
Government would be forced not only
into the sole distribution of wheat,
but sooner or later would also prob
ably be forced into the milling and
baking business.
Meanwhile, even the farmers are
asking why Federal tinkerers insist
on prolonging and intensifying an
experimental failure.
:o:
If Senators were paid for the
senses they show they'd land in the
breadline, but if they were paid for
the words they use they'd all retire
millionaires.
