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.

ADVERTISING STAKDAKDS IMPROVE
Advertising and selling standards throughout the country
have been materially improved, according to those who keep
tip with the acceptance and use of the best advertising
methods. 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. People who are starved into piety will go out of it'.
