EOOSEVELT'S LEADERSHIP
Norman Thomas still fears a
fascist dictatorship. "Mr. Roosevelt
has not given us in any true and
objectional sense a dictatorship. Nor
has he tried to make us drunk or
crazy with fascist national emotion
alism. The question is, however good
his intentions, whether we can hope
to escape these things." A socialist
appraisal of present tendencies is
that we cannot.
Mr. Thomas' socialism rests on
democracy, not dictatorship. If
President Roosevelt fails, he appre
hends that the country will slip into
a regime of state capitalism of the
fascist brand. From that to a Mus
solini or a Hitler is a short jump, he
thinks.
From Mr. Thomas' viewpoint,
Roosevelt is preparing the way by
his recovery program. He has absorb
ed vast power from congress. He has
laid the foundation in these recovery
enactments for new judicial inter
pretations of the constitution which
might eventually sustain a naked
dictatorship as an emergency meas
ure, under the emergency doctrine
in NIRA's preamble. He is now
regimenting industry under codes."
If these fears of Mr. Thomas chal
lenge our respectful attention, it is
still true that big business in the
United States is not acting at all
pleased with the president. This fact
carries some significance, because in
Italy big business financed Musso
lini's rise to power and has sustain
ed him ever since; while in Ger
many, too, big business financed the:
nazi movement and welcomed Hit-
ler's supremacy. These dictatoi
knew what was expected, for they
crushed not only radicalism but lib
eralism of all colors; they destroyed
political democracy; they outlawed
all labor organizations and confis
cated their funds.
No one of sagacity pretends to
forecast the future. But neither Am
erican big business nor Roosevelt acts
as if there were any tacit understand
ing between them that might con
template a fascist dictatorship in a
regime of state capitalism. Quite the
contrary! In fact, they have been
seeking different objectives in the
industrial codes of steel, coal and
motors. The labor provisions of the
codes have been the main cause of
conflict. This conflict has demon
strated that big business in no sense
controls the president or the United
States government. For the "open
shor." or arther big business defin
ition of the "open shop" in practice,
will go into none of the codes.
This is not to say that big busi
ness, by a policy of monco-operation,
cculd not wreck the president's pro
gram in its practical execution. It
could easily wreck it. But what may
big business expect in case, for any
reason, the program fails? In that
case, where are the profits coming
from, and how soon? Big business
would have to wade some distance to
shore before it could set up a govern
ment of its own.
Big business cannot do hotter than
sail right along with the compara
tively moderate Roosevelt, not rock
ing the boat, accepting without reser
vations the labo rprovisions in the
recovery act as passed by congress
and interpreted by the official heads
cf NRA. Big business, and little
business, for that matter, can gain
nothing in the present crisis by overt
or covert fighting.
No dictatorship, whether fascist
or red, would leave the least liberty
to anyone or any clas3. Perhaps
erratically, Roosevelt, no revolution
ary by training or temperament, is
trying to lead business along the line
of the golden mean, avoiding ex
tremes, into the sunshine fo compar
ative prosperity. Springfield Re
publican.

Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd has
announced that he will said the lat

his last trip' that the pI was there

has changed any since then.
GBEAT ECONOMIC AND
SOCIAL EXPERIMENT
President Roosevelt's idea, as em
bodied In the Tennessee valley au
thority act, is that in the watershed
of the Tennessee river there shall be
attempted the first deliberate effort,
on a large scale, to inspire system
atic and balanced development of the
social and economic life of a part of
our country. The new deal which
is the central theme of the present
administration, will not be brought
about simply by a change of motives.
New methods also are essential. Or
derly design must take the place of
haphazard and destructive exploita
tion. In making this change from hit-or-miss
individualism to planned and
controlled development, it is well
that policies be tested in a limited
area, rather than that the inevitable
trial-and-error method should first
be applied on a nation-wide scale.
For many reasons the Tennessee val
ley is a suitable site for such a pro
ject. Any temporary inconvenience
resulting from its being used as the
laboratory of the nation should be
more than offset by the direct appro
priations by the federal government.
The nation as a whole can afford
this investment, for it can thereby
learn how to plan in other regions.
Both the Tennessee jarea and the
nation should profit.
The Tennessee valley authority is
only a month old as this is being
written. The systematic and effective
planning of industrial and social life
for a great region i3 an unprecedent
ed undertaking in America. Much
study and planning will be neces-
sarr. Substantial results will not
come suddenly. The Tennessee valley
authority must ask the patience and
forbearance of the American people
while the great project is taking
form. Arthur U. Morgan in Current
History.

GREAT CRUSADER FOR
CIVIC CLEANLINESS
As a Massachusetts Tarm boy Dr.
Parkhurst "heard of New York with
awe and trembling," as he himself
said. When he was called to the
pastorate of a church here he must
nare hesitated as did the prophet
jonan when summoned to eo and
preach against Nineveh. It was, in
deed, more than a decade, after the
New England parson's coming to this
city that he preached the sermon that
stirred New York and became the
initial attack in a movement that led
to defeat of Tammany in 1894. But
he did not afterward retire to his
study to complain that subsequently
all had not been accomplished that
he had preached as permanently nec
essary. He continued a crusader for
civic cleanliness the rest of his long
life. He resigned the presidency of
the Society for the Prevention of
Crime after 17 years of service, but
even at 91 he was declaring that
"something very drastic must be
done with Tammany."
Yet he did not consider himself a
reformer except in the sense that
every man is who "tries to make the
world come a little nearer heaven's
specifications as he understands
them." He was by temperament a
student, had taught Latin and Greek
in seminary and was a Sanskrit
scholar. In a statement made only a
few months ago he expressed a doubt
of the value of reform in the realm
of morals. He disapproved, of course.
of gambling and prostitutoin and
drunkenness, but his battle was.
"against the hypocrisy, and collusion
of our city government." The gov
ernment said one thing. "It was paid
by the taxpayers to say and do it.
. . . After taking the taxpayers'
money it did another." One remem
bers sis saying in defense of his out
cry that while the wicked flee when
no man pursueth, they make much
better time if someone is after them.
He did not believe in "moral re
form applied externally." Only by
education can the world be "made
safe for moral decency." It was this
view that led him to deplore the
Eighteenth amendment and the Vol
stead act. His last open letter, writ'
ten in Maine in August of 1932, was
an urgent appeal for giving the peo
pie an opportunity to repeal the
amendment if they so wished. His
voice was mighty for individual god
liness long before he became known
for his attack on the corrupters of
the city government. His sermons
were carefully prepared and were read
with such power of spirit that the
church could not - bold the audience
that came to hear him. It was in
the ordinary routine of his pastorate
that the memorable sermon was
preached with no suspicion, as he
stated that his words would cause any
great excitement. And he would wish
to be remembered not as a "reform
er" but as a .preacher of righteous
ness. New York Times.

ON THE WAY OUT
With the old legs wabbling and
the chasing of fly balls becoming
more irksome, the Sultan of Swat an
nounces that he is ready to "hang
up the 6pikes" and that this will be
his last season. Thus will pass from
play the most colorful figure of the
diamond, but he will live in the an
nals of baseball as long as any man
who ever donned a uniform.
The underpinning has been Babe
Ruth's weak spot for the past four
or five years. His legs are not equal
to the burden of carrying his huge
bulk with the speed necessary to the
game; and even at the bat, though
he is still a terror to pitchers and
outfielders, Ruth has slowed down,
hi3 hitting lacking the tremendous
punch that enabled him to rule the
roost for so many years and made
him tTvj idol of the fans. He remains
the great showman, retaining much
of the spirit of a boy and an obvious
love for baseball that stands out 'in
all his actions on the field. But that
i3 not enough. Fans must now re
call him as the drawing card of his
time in a class alone.
Retirement of baseball players,
unlike that or many opera stars, is
usually the prelude of several "final"
farewells. Many of them go to the
minors and some of them succeed in
making a comeback. But Ruth's age
and condition make such a prospect
for him unlikely. And it would be a
pity to see his career marred by ex
hibitions on the field that would
show he was not what he used to be.

REACHING "FORGOTTEN MAN"
The home of Adoipli and Emily
Rutke is still their home. It still car
ries a mortgage, but the government
has intervened to make it possible
for the . mortgagee not to foreclose
We know of no sounder way in which
government could extend relief.
A family that ' had worked and
saved to pay fr a home was defeat
cd by a depression lasting so lonj
that all the normal ways of extend
ing credit had been exhausted. The
mortgagee, a building and loan asso
elation, had to consider those whose
money was invested with it. Noth
ing was left but to foreclose, with
probable loss to everyone. But with
the heaviest loss to a man who had
wokred white work was to b had,
wose family had done its best.
No more serious- blow has descend
ed on the . nation than this loss of
homes by those who had sacrificed to
earn them. No group, if one may
call it a group, is more important to
any social organization than those
who want homes and are willing to
give up other desires for the sake of
a home. They are the abiding hope
of any nation. "But they are not
capitalists; they have not such re
s?rves as will carry them over a long
period of unemployment. Their labor
is their capital, and if work is denied
them, their savings are destroyed.
That was the case with the Rutkes,
and is the case with many, many
thousands, we fear many millions, of
families.
Government cannot pay off all the
mortgages, settle all the debts, put
those who have suffered back in the
place they held or would have reach
ed if there had been no depression.
But government compelled to spend
billions for one project or another to
bring recovery, to ward off worse de
pression, to relieve actual physical
wants, can do something.
Government, in Mr. Hoover's day,
tried first to pour relief down from
the top. It lent huge sums to banks,
and much of that lending cannot be
criticized, for the failure of a bank
is not one but a score or a hundred
tragedies. But the relief did not
"trickle down" fast enough to those
who, if helped over the hard place,
would remain the physical, the moral
and the economic backbone of the na
tion. Now government reaches the man
at the bottom. The "forgotten man"
is given assurance that by the use
of government credit he may stay in
his home. There is security, there is
still a mortgage; but the government
is risking a guarantee of interest.
Great financiers have often told
us that the real basis of their sound
est investments was character. Now
government is making an Investment
in character. And government is
recognizing that the character of men
and women who want to work, who
make sacrifices to have a home, is the
kind of character in which it wants
to invest.
We have waited long, too long
for a way to be worked out whereby
a part of the public resources be
ing poured out on relief could be
spent on this best deserved and most
promising kind of relief, the protec
tion of such families as make a na
tion strong. Now the work has be
gun, the view brightens before mil
lions who have knawn only darkness.
Hcpe rc-egtablish'sd will make its
own great contribution to recovery.

WHEN A ROOSEVELT
INTERVENED
Although it is evident that Presi
dent Roosevelt would authorize an
other American Intervention In Cuba,
if at all, with the greatest reluct
ance, the possibility of such action
plainly will continue to exist until
the revolutionists succeed' in estab
lishing a stable government. In this
respect the present situation re
sembles that which obtained in Cuba
for a month or so preceding our in
tervention in 1906. A revolution had
broken out against the regime oi
President Estrada Palma in August,
190G, and the president promptly had
asked the United States government
to intervene.
President Theodore Roosevelt, like
his successor today, was extremely
hesitant about interfering in Cuban
affairs. Instead of authorizing inter
vention, he ordered William Howard
Taft, hi3 secretary of war, and Rob
ert Bacon, the assistant secretary of
state, to go to Havana and help work
out an agreement among the var
ious local factions, just as Ambassa
dor Sumner Welles recently tried to
bring former President Gerardo
Machado and his opponents together.
But President Palma blocked the
compromise plan by resigning him
self and taking his supporters out of
the Cuban congress, thereby leavin;
it without a quorum. With the gov
ernment definitely ctalled at the end
of September, President Theodore
Roosevelt finally authorized an in
tervention that lasted for two years.
It would be a real achievement if
the existing Cuban political factions
could co-operate in establishing a
stable, constitutional government and
prevent Latin American history from
repeating itself once more. Kansas

HOW RAILROADS CAN
STEP UP EMPLOYMENT
The Roosevelt adaiinirtrction has
appealed to the country's railroads
to help in its rc-employment cam
paign. The railroads, which are al
ready beginning to feel the benefic
ial effect of the new deal, cannot re
fuse to co-operate.
Joseph Eastman, the federal co
ordinator of railroads, points out that
railroads cannot ccme under NRA as
such, but that they can, and should,
apply the principles cf the blue eagle
law.
First, they can provide increased
employment by bringing their main
tenance of way, equipment and struc
tures up to date. "There is so much
deferred maintenance and other
work," Co-ordinator Eastman told
railway presidents and labor leaders,
"which sorely needs to be done that
this will net only help the country
but be the soundes of economy." The
federal public works administration
is empowered to make loans to rail
roads for maintenance, but thus far
no application for a loan from these
funds has been filed.
Second, railroad managements, in
conference with labor, can adjust
working schedules to "establish In
fact at least an eight-hour day." This
plan, too, would provide more jobs.
There are, in normal times, ap
proximately 1,750,000 railroad work
ers. Now about 750 thousand are
unemployed. As labor leaders have
shown, it is not feasible to expect
other Industries, as they come under
the blue eagle, to absorb these men
The railroads themselves should re
employ most of them. New York
World-Telegram.

"REAL REVOLUTION"
What has happened? Well, this
to put it briefly: This so-called "in
dividualism" has been the cloak of
evil practices that liave got us all in
to a terrible mess, and now we pro
pose collectively to exercise whatever
power is necessary to get out, and to
keep out of it. Whether it be milk
steel, coal or whatnot, makes no dif
ference. The individual or the Indus
try is to be subordinated to the gen
eral welfare. No industry has any
right to exist if to exist it must ex
ploit human beings; or if by its exist
ence it puts heavy burdens on great
numbers of our people.
This means that nobody has
"right" to operate a sweatshop, even
though he can hire women at star
vat ion wages.
This means that nobody has t
"right" to operate a coal mine, if to
do so his workmen have to house
their families in abandoned coke pits
This means that nobody has a
"right to sell milk at wayside standa,
if by doing eo he demoralizes the
price for thousands of dairymen and
so imposes on them subnormal stand
ards of living.
Men cannot do what they once did,
and they might as well begin to un
derstand it. The peaceful revolution
at the polls last fall was the begin
ning of a real rsvelutioa in our ways
of doing things. Milwaukee Jour

A DEFECTIVE LANGUAGE
Someone sends a complaint to the
newspapers that there is no shorter
and more graphic word than "pe
destrian" for the person who uses his
legs in walking. "Walker" doesn't
quite fill the bill; it seems to imply
one who makes walking a profession.
A "hiker" is one who goes off on
holiday rambles. "Footslogger," an
English term. Is supposed to apply
to the infantry branch of the army.
Equally unsuitable are "stroller,"
"footman," "footer,", "tramp" and
"saunterer." We seem forced to fall
back on "pedestrians" to describe the
people who go their way3 in the city
streets and make up the mournful
tallies at the week-ends of those who
have suffered in automobile accidents
So the language has forever lack
ed a word equivalent to "starve
for those who are undone from thirst
We must always say that one died of
thirst, whereas it would be simple
and more direct to say that one
thrast" or was "thirstgotten." The
Germans have-"durstleiden" and per
haps "dursttodten." The French
seem no better off than we are unless
they use "soifmort," which it is to be
feared would never have the sanction
of academic. Perhaps the Greeks
have a word for it. But, so long as
we hvae no way of calling a "pedes
trian" something less sesquepedalian
or explaining that a man perished
of thirst in Just one word, our lan
guage leaves much to be desired.
