THE senate, free with the other
fellow's money, votes $25,000,
000 for the relief of drouth suf
ferers. The senate is so liberal because
It wants to put the President in a
hole. President Hoover believes
the drouth sufferers should he re
lieved by private subscription,
through the Red Cross.
The senate wants to make it ap
pear that Hoover is a soulless busi
ness machine, devoid of human
sympathy.
HOW popular Is Hoover? This
writer, speaking quite frankly,
doesn't know.
Hoover is a business man, with
the business man's mind and the
business man's outlook. We talk a
lot about business administrations,
but business administrations are
NEVER popular.
Business and politics are run
by different sets of rules.
BUSINESS is autocratic. It de
mands efficiency above every
thing else.
Efficiency In politics ISN'T
popular. It throws too many peo
ple out of jobs.
THE business man says: "Effi
ciency demands that this or
that MUST BE DONE."
The politician says: "Will this
r that be POPULAR."
The successful business man
knows what is right and sound and
efficient and goes ahead and docs
It. The successful politician has a
sixth sense which tells him what
people will lake and what they
won't.
ROOSEVELT possessed to an
unusual degree this specializ
ed politician's knowledge of what
people would like and what they
wouldn't. He combined It with a
knowledge of what would be the
sound thing lo do.
This combination made his an
unusually successful and USEFUL
public man.
Hoover has the business man's
knowledge of what is sound and
efficient and what is not. hut he
lacks the politician's skill in sens
ing what will ho POPULAR.
WHETHER or not- Hoover is re
elected In 1932 w ill be governed
largely by economic conditions.
If good business comes back, every
body will be happy and Hoover
will be renominated and re-elected
with little effective opposition.
If business doesn't come back,
nobody can say at the present
moment what will happen.
This writer, for one. thinks busi
ness WILL come back.
ASK the man who makes ihe
front page of this newspaper
what he has to be thankful for
these days, and he will answer:
"Clara Bow."
It you disagree with him. go
bark and check up on what stories
you have been reading with most
interest in the past week or so.
Unless you're abnormal, you'll
find that you've been doing a lot
of reading about Clara and her
escapades.
CLARA BOW is a rase of hnt
too much prosperity will do
for one who hasn't the brains to
stand prosperity.
She has. fundamentally, the
brains to be a good dishwasher,
with a snappy line of chatter for
anyone who comes along and trlpR
to "kid" her. "
When looks and that quality
which her press agent succeeded
In labeling "It" swept her Into
sudden popularity and accom
panying big earnings. It was too
much for her and she went to
pieces.
H
ERE Is the moral: Tf YOU want
