AT0ARD THE EXPRESS
OUT OF THE SLOUGH
Eleven important measures on Mr:
Roosevelt's program of legislation
for. the special session have still to be
errfcted. This list doesn't include theJ
50-iqur week bill passed by thjj
atef on it3 own motionanQ
iasm. The foundling seems to be shut
out from the White house, and Speak
cr Rainey will have none of it. Mr.
Byrnes, the house democratic leader,
say3 that the house will put through
rpcedily the legislation asked by the
president. Mr. Snell, the minority
leader, was probably speaking as a
matter of form when he gave notice
that the minority would "insist on
careful and complete consideration'
of the measures proposed. Mr. Byrnes
was equally formal in assuming that
the majority agreed with Mr. "Snell's
statement. ,
In the stress of imperious national
nee('.3 that "careful and complete con
ride'ration is something very different
from what it used to bo when there
was more time for dawdling, supsr-
fluou3 speech-making, for opposition

occasions have taught new duties

they may be doubtful; but they are

the depression and will ir.g to stand

LIEBOWITZ SHOULD
EE DISQUALIFIED
Samuel S. Liebowitz, chief of de
fense counsel for the Scottsboro Ne
groes, has disqualified himself for
further participation in the Alabama
trials. Safe in Brooklyn, , he gave
this description of the people of Ala
bama as a reason why they could
condemn these Negroes on the evi
dence offered:
"If you ever saw those creatures,
those bigots, whose mouths are slits
in their faces, whose eyes pop out at
you like a frog's, whose chins drip
tobacco juice, bewhiskered and filthy,
you would not ask how they could do
It. When I got back home I felt that
I needed a moral, mental and phy
sical bath.'
That i3 Mr. Liebowitz's opinion of
the people of Alabama, among whom
he purpose? to go jnce more for the
trial of tho remaining defendants.
We say without hesitation that when
he appears again, the court3 should
tell him politely but firmly that he
cannot appear in any court in Ala
bama. Mr. Liebowitz, if he had an open
mind himself, if he were not as nar
row in his own way as he pictures
the people of Alabama to be In theirs,
if -he were not so steeped 'in1 his own
prejudices, would consider what they
might be thinking about the fact that
53 city blocks of disorder and riot
ing attended hi3 return to New York.

en, men "and women yelling them
selves hoarse while marching "to
municipal defiance how is that any
better than Alabama?

THE ROOSEVELT PROFESSORS
From the human standpoint, per
haps the moat interesting thing about
the new administration is the new
type of presidential advisers wno
have come in with Mr; Roosevelt:'
They are different from any we have
ever had.
Usually the men closest to the
president and of most influence upon
his policies have been "members of
hi3 cabinet, or leading members of
the house or senate, or large, men pf
finance and affairs. For example,
Mr. Ccolidge leaned heavily upon the
late Dwight Morrow, and Mr. Hoover
was more prone to listen to the ad
vice of hi3 cecretary of treasury, Mr.
Mills, than any other. Mr. Harding
had his Dougherty. Mr. Wilson his
Colonel House, Mr. McKinley his
Mark Hanna and Mr. Taft was great
ly influenced by Senator Aldrich.
Mr. Roosevelt is the first president
whose administration has a distinct
university flavor, given it by the
small group of professors who are
hi3 most intimate counselors and up
on whom, in matters of general pol
icy, he seems to rely more than up
on anyone else. It is a unique situ
ation, but appears to be working
well. Not the least interesting part
is that the Rooseveltian professors
have had no previous experience in
practical politics and are, in fact, as
eomoletelv non-nolitlcal as can be
imagined. To the average politician
this would seem a disqualification for
a presidential adviser, and in most
cases it would be
In the case of Mr. RooseveI:-3 pro
fessors it is not at all. One reason is
they do not advise on matters con
nected with patronage or politics, but
on matters of public policy. Anoth
er reason i3 that, while the professors
may be without political experience
Mr. Roosevelt himself is not. For ;
good many years ho has been in prac
tical nolitics. Both In and out of
public office he has been politically
active. He supplies in this respect
what the professors lack, and they
seem to form a combination as good
as it is unusual.
There is this, too, to be said
while the professors aro not politi
clans, they are by no means idealistic
dreamers. On the contrary, 'Prof
Molev. the chief figure in this uni
versity group, is rather on the hard
boiled side, takes an extremely prac
tical view of politics In general and
is not without a cynical trace. Be
ybnd doubt, Mr. Moley is closer to
the president than any member of
his cabinet, more nearly hi3 Chief ad
viser than any of them, closer than
the Secretary of Slate Mr.THUH, un
der" whom "he'swreSL. HBOsraiiaani OX
intelligence and character and de
voted to Mr. Roosevelt. Among the
other professors not quite.; so con
spicuously close as Mr. Moley but
consulted and trusted with Important
work are Prof. R. G. Tugwell and
Prof. A. A. Berle. Then there is Prof.
Mordecal Ezekiel, not one of the In
ner professional group, but credited
with authorship, along with Prof
Tugwell, of the farm-relief measure
about to be enacted
It is generally accepted that the
preparatory work on the Roosevelt
legislative program has been done by
some one or some two of the profess
ors, though, of course, others have
been consulted and used. For ex
ample, Huston Thompson, formerly
assistant attorney general under
Wilson, drew the securities regula
tion bill. In the main, however, the
professors have prepared the pro
gram and neither members of the
caDinet nor me statesmen in con
gress have had much, if anything, to
do with it. So far as congress is con
cerned, in most cases, it has known
nothing of the bills until they were
introduced, with the president's re
quest that they be passed. And they
have not known much more about
them after passage.
A great deal of work was involved
in the preparation of these measures.
For the most part, however, the pro
fessors keep unobtrusively In the
background, go about their jobs
quietly. Mr. Moley has been until
now the only one with an official
position. The othcr3 are pretty con
sistently in Washington, and Prof
Tugwell, who had beenasked to be
come assistant attorney-general, only
yesterday wa3 confirmed as an assist
ant secretary of agriculture.
Th bringing by Mr. Roosevelt of
these students of economics and pub
lie questions into the government,
and utilizing their brains to supple
ment lm own practical political
knowledge, i3 an Ideal combination
if it can be made to work. So far
it has. Frank It. Kent in Baltimore

insurer prices
There is no more 25-cent wheat or
10-cent corn in Nebraska.
The day of such dismal prices has
passed.
Omaha wheat yesterday made a
sensational advance to 664 cents.
Corn sold at 29 H cents. Nor was
that all. Everywhere commodity
stocks, and price3 followed suit
Stocks rose an average of $5 a share;
cotton a dollar a bale. Steel mount
ed to a new high for the year, and
steel production was reported at 23
per cent of capacity, as compared to
a recent low of 15, and 19.5 only a
week ago.
Only yesterday Moody's index re
ported that the average of commod
ity prices wat 92.5 the day before. A
week before that it was 90.2; a month
before S7.4. The low for the year
was 78.7. The Increase, in so short
a time, is remarkable and highly sig
nificant. What is going on?
The dollar is getting cheaper, and
so prices are going higher.
And why?
Because we quote the Associated
Press -"President Roosevelt moved
today on the internationand domestic
fronts in a broad campaign to re
store American price levels, wages,
and credits. ... He has in mind a
controlled nrice level, a controlled
credit, and a managed currency."
Because quoting tho stock mar
ket report "announcement of in
flationary steps at Washington
prompted feverish shifting of funds
into commodities and shares to take
advantage of prospective decreased
purchasing power of the dollar."
That is easy to understand. When
dollars are going down in value it is
high time to buy. For tomorrow, next
week, next month, they will buy less.
Tho goods and commodities they are
exchanged for will sell for more odl
lars. It will take more dollars to
buy them.
. What is it that President Roose
velt is doing and planning to bring
about this result?
In the first place, there will be
no more licenses to export gold. That
means we are' off the gold standard.
Our currency is at a discount "de
preciated" abroad. It takes more
of It to buy foreign goods.' Stating
it the other way around, foreign cur
rencies advance.' They will buy more
dollars, and so more American goods.
That encourages exports, and at bet
ter prices in term3 of dollars. So
there are higher dollar prices at
home." ' ' ' ' "
The president is not stopping with
that;: There is'jA'cbntrolled expansion
involved "In 'hfs plans' for developing
the Tennessee valley and for an ex
tended program 'of -public works.
These will involve the ultimate use
and expenditure of billions of dol
larsor of bonds exchangeable for
dollars and put multitudes of idle
men to work, earning wages and
spending money.
The federal farm board, that two
years ago held 325 million bushels of
wheat and enormous stocks of cotton,
has disposed .of .its holdings and is
out of the market.
An active, planned campaign is be
ing launched to put to work the two
billions of sound currency and the
extended credits mad available by
the recent banking act. At the same
time some plan .for deposits insurance
and for the release of large sums of
deposits now tied up in banks only
partly" open is being worked out.
The underbrush has been cleared
away. The foundations have Deen
laid. And upon them 13 being reared
a rareful and scientific policy for re
storing price leyels through the med
ium of a managed currency, increased
credits, public 'enterprise, and pub
lic aid and encouragement to private
enterprise.

Farm Record Summaries Returned.
. Summaries of , the farm records
completed in Cass county this year
showed an average cash income of
$2534 and a cash expenditure of
$1605 leaving a let gain of $929.00.
The average Inventory loss was, live
stock $442, feeds and grains $358,
machinery and equipment, $227 and
farm improvement $153, or a total
of $1180.00. Tho net cash gain
minu3 the inventory loss leaves a
minus figure of $251.00.
The average rate earned on invest
ment of the entire group was -3.84
The highest individual made plu3
C.2 and the lowest -10.S4.
The most outstanding thing about
the entire group of summaries is
that practically all cf the income
was from livestock. These that were
forced to sell grain at tha low pre
vailing prices are all in the low
group.
Another noticeable feature is that
where a farmer milked about a donen
cows and had about 200 good lay
ing hens they showed a much higher
cash income than thoce that did not.
General expenses cn all farm:; were

Too Early to Sow Sudan.
Sudan grass, now widely used as
temnorarv mid-summer Dasture. Is
strictly a hot weather crop. The safe
sowing date is about May 10th in
southeastern Nebraska and later in
the northern and western parts of
the state. Earlier seeding is likely
to result in a poor stand, especially if
the weather is cool, The rate of seed
ing for eastern Nebraska is 20 to 25
pounds per acre. Most farmers pre
fer to. drill it, although small patches
may be sown broadcast and harrow
ed or disced in.
Sudan grass will cross with cane
if the fields are close together, or
sudan grass reed may contain some
cane reed. In either case the plants
from the crossed or mixed seed may
produce the same prussic acid which
makes cane a dangerous crop for live
stork pasture.. Farmers who want. a
:-afe pasture for valuable livestock
should bo particular about their
sudan grass seed. In order to make
available pure sudan grass, the Ne
braska Crop Growers association be
jran certification cf this crop in 1932,
and a few members of thi3 associa
tion havo an available seed supply

ARKY ORGANIZATION
AND WHAT IT COSTS
The recommendation to the mil
itary committee of the house of rep
resentatives by Major General John
son Hagocd cf a plan for the reorgan
ization of the army which he claims
would save 50 million dollars an
nually 12 coupled with such criticisms
of the present system as to make the
country prick up its ears. General
Hagccd's assertion that the war de
partment "has always collapsed at
the outbreak, of every war" i3 not
borne out, however, by the history of
the world war.
But there is no question that the
war department substantially col
lapsed, cr at least functioned exe
crably, under Secretary Alger in the
Spanish war. Nor any question that
it functioned--still-'worse atCeiybut
break of the civil war, after Lincoln,
reluctantly fulfilling the terms of a
political deal entered into by his
managers without .his consent, se-
Iectjed as his first war secretary, Si-
mon Cameron, who thereupon en
couraged a notorious traffic in army
contracts.
Following the reorganization of
the arniy sj-Etem accompanied under
the direction of Elihu Root around
the turn of the century there has
bean, on the whole, general conn
dence in its efficiency. When the sen
ate military affairs committee under
took to investigate the department
early in the world war it not only
found In Newton D. Baker a secretary
of far higher abilities and fitness
than either Alger or Cameron, but
it did not find a system that had
collapsed. .
Yet any officer who comes before
a congressional committee and testi
fies, ' as General Hagood has, that
the .present organization is "top-
heavy, contains too many conflicting
agencies, has too much divided re
sponsibility, etc., should get a care-i
ful hearing and undoubtedly will
His further claim that he presented
hi3 plan of reorganization to Presi
dent Hoover but that nothing was
done about it adds an element of
political interest and probably as
sures rome democratic sympathy.
It i3 apparent that President
Roosevelt iz convinced that the rout
ine operating costs of both army and
navy' are far too high. Hi3 report
ed belief that a total of 200 million
dollars a year can be saved on the
combined services has been especially
linked with proposed economies in
payments now made to civilian em
ployes. While this involves an ap
parently even larger saving in the
war department than General Hagood
proposes, it does riot, as yet, neces
sarily imply grave dissatisfaction on
the president's part with the way in
which dthc army is organized under
the general staff and its chief. But
it i3 also true -that any system of
organization tends in time o becom
too complex unless subjected to per
iodical overhauling. .. . It - is possible
that the reorganisation for which
General Hagood calls is needed both
for economy and military efficiency
Further hearings before the house
military affairs committee should at
least, receive close public attention.
