Rest in the Lord,, and wait patiently , wa iiuu.-a OiVIK U v. fa BUSINESS CONTROL IN NEW FORM To get a good understanding of the new relationship be tween business and government, all you have to do is con trast the attitude of President Franklin D., Roosevelt with that of his distinguished predecessor, T. R. Each took office at a time when the public was deeply dissatisfied with the way in which social values were being ignored by the industrial and financial community. In each case the ordinary man felt that some realignment was neces sary, although there was not in either case any general agreement on what should be done. And, in each case, there , was a radical fringe eager to move along paths which might be theoretically admirable but were pretty likely to be disas jV troug In practice. i f i. Theodore Roosevelt insisted that what had happened'm i business and industry was a direct concern of the govem ' rrspnt. He saw that society in self-protection must do some ( fhing to restrain the profit motive, and the antitrust laws ." came into his hands as the most effective weapon. -? There was little talk then of making the government -a , v partner in industry although it'ia inWreiting to remem ber that T. R. was not afraid to threaten the anthracite coal barons with direct government intervention. It was his , theory that the government could do all that was needed by exercising ita supervision from the outside. Business was to be allowed to go its own way, but Uncle Sam was to be alert in the background with a big stick ready to rap any head that got too far out of line. That theory was followed without important changes up ! to this year; but by the spring of 1933 it had become pain fully evident that more than that was needed. Simple Re straint was not enough. Government must not be content to keep industry from doing certain things; it must be ready to persuade or force industry to do things. Its control must be positive rather than negative. ' This, at any rate, seems to be the second Rooseveltian policy, as emliodied in the legislation which is now taking shape. It is in marked contrast to the creed of the first Roosevelt; but it is worth noticing that it is a perfectly logical development from it The contrast is more apparent I than rea!. Once government has begun to exercise supervi sion over private business it cannot turn back. Miss Anne Morgan, suter of J. P. Morgan, -the banker, is rhovn here as she sse;nded the gangplank of a ship bound for r-urope. where she spends mitcil , ot her time.

At the same time a group of east em millionaires and railroad presi dent were saying that the nominee was as -safe" as CalTtn Coolidge rVnueil; that he could be trusted nerer to go off on a dangerous tan gent or countenance any measure not thoroughly sound and orthodox. Thiai all was so confusing that noany- American otizens Jut gare it up. and decided to wait and see how Mr. Roes celt himself would aetw tte cispute If and when he entered the White House. Since March 4 he has exorcised himself to congress on rirtuaily eTtry important issue. Yey the dispute goes on. with only minor modifications.

However, numerous methods to exploit the public are lmg actively used, .tncludinjr so-culled chaiin-selling schemes, fake charity solicitations ond misrepresentations in connection with the sale of merchandise. While La Grande has been fortunate in that most of its advertisers are of the better type, it sometimes happens that promoters of doubtful schemus victimize some of our citizens. Slost of the fraud, one must admit, occurs in private trans actions and few of the promoters use newspaper advertising to proclaim the alleged virtues of what they sell. This is due to the fact that the advertisements printed in a reputable newspaper or magazine are subject to check-ups and are seen by many people. lUther than adopt such an open state ment of their claims, the promoters of these fake schemes rely largely upon the power of persuasion as applied to-the individual in a personal conference. We are told people are becoming more religious owing to the depression. How long will that last? The class of people who accept religion as a crutch in a period of Weak ness will throw away the crutch when the weakness has passed.
