Flynn on the Business Setback
; I Two days ago' The Statesman reviewed the theories of
jptavid Cushman Coyle, who would use taxation us'lool to lev
let' off wealth, and the national budget as gyrossope to boost
'the national income" to 100 billion dollars. Todity we present
jthe "theories of John T. Flynn, whose writings on business
jand economic subjects' have had wide reading. Flynn is no
japologist for the ancien regime in .Wall street. In fact some
jofj his articles, like his case history of the Vaii Sweringens,
have been devastating. But his recommendations, which ap
pear in an article "This Setback in Business" in January
iflarpers, are radically different
j!,.-t Flynn says that the recovery has been sustained by gov
ernment spending. Private financing has not f come in to
jtskjke up tbe slack when. rverrsaxEt aspeiuiingtajiered'Off.For
ittje future he toresees : "If pnvate fiaiichrg should not re-
itrive and the government should withdraw from the field,
-then the whole system would
.disaster of the fist magnitude.
'credit as a prophet; he predicted a business reverse of mag-
jdijtuce some months ago.
k.1 The real . difficulty as
;to sustain the price structure even atJthe cost of inflation
through continued deficits. He is hostile to-thie practice of
trade agibemens, '"fair traded Trills, price fixing, subsidizing
scarcity and artificial boosting of farm prices. The issue now.
iinl his opinion, is whether we
.stricture, which means : iTiflaticm and -cqnti aoed deficits
Itven larger than before; or we must decide to move down
;t a lower pnee level." If we evade the decision, "time's deci
.stbn will be deflation.' -
. ..." Flyrai would have the government reversie its course :
repeal the Eobuison-Patman
abolish the commodity surplus
ing ; discontinue marketing agreements ; make war on all vio
lators of the antitrust laws
controls; investigate the structure of monopoly controls in
the building industry in labor
ial men; destroy every vestige
trol; overhaul the tax system
ive purchasing i power ; modify the undistributed profits
tax and "the unbelievably dishonest and stupid and paralyz-
. iag social security tax to created
. strain speculation in securities
ces confine government inflationary activity to low-cost
housing upon some sane and
minate lending to railroads and bankrupt corporations, let-
ting them go through the wringer and then b& revived on a
realistic basis. He concludes : ,
I "And behind all and oyer all there should be an end of the
' iialf-mad cults of abundance. The day of the promisers the de
stroyers of poverty and the makers of abundance, republican
S , nd democrat ought to be closed. Perhaps one day we shall
Iknow how to achieve this miracle within the framework of the
; ; .capitalist system. It is a very real and sober world of facts that
, ..we must now face."
! '! Flynn recognizes this as a
ship : Iy guess is that the statesman who seeks the approval
of, his contemporaries at this juncture is a fool. There is but
one verdict now worth having
What a contrast between
.vrio would tax ourselves rich;
sees the country studding into
whierrwojild get the votes in the elections. But in our judg.
ment Flynn keeps closer to the realities of economics.
! Flynn's program, of price
. not mean disaster, but the reverse. We can maintain pros
perity on any t price plateau, if the relations are in balance.
The immediate essential is the release of the flood of private
-capital for investment. That will come when investors get a
little daylight. Indispensable is more , encouragement from
Washington as to the security of legitimate investment ; and
probably less political astigmatism in New Yorkv If confi
dence is restored and return made to the system of freer
competition in industry and agriculture and labor relations
then price readjustments would be natural and business
health would be good. '
.jf That program seems very far from attainment. People
are still eager to get a free ride on government; and think
by passing laws and curtailing production and taxing some
one else they can aide a magic carpet into the abundant life.
- sAJI beautiful dream; but we urge people to inspect the car
pet for yawning holes before they take passage.
Portland Newspaper Strike
Printers on the three Portland newspapers rejected an
offer of $9.00 days and $9.50 nights for a seven-and-a-half
hour shift, also an offer for arbitration and called a strike
which has shut down the Portland papers. This adds to
Portland's labor turmoil, and will grievously affect the nor
mal life of the city, ;
V Most people, workers as well as employers, would ques
tion the wisdom of walking out on steady jobs with a $9.00
pay check for each day's work, in times like the present. Un
ion leaders wanted to bring .Portland up to the Seattle level
. of $9 for a seven-hour day.
Through our industrial history labor has obtained from
time to time increases in pay rates and reduction in hours
of work per day, interrupted occasionally by depressions ; but
otherwise steadily upward. This has been made possible
through technological improvements and mass .production.
Just now government is stepping in to take larger shares of
the income of a business. This lowers the ceiling for wage
increases.: " - -
Union leaders have felt impelled to produce wage gains
at regular intervals for fear the members would lose loyalty
to the unionl As industry matures and prosperity holds at
' low levels these increases cannot be expected, and the mem
bers should" not expect their leaders to prod ac them If they
are forced, the weaker shops are put out of business to the
injury of its workers. -
; The Portland strike is of the old-fashianed pattern. It
is not embroidered with Wagner act or national labor rela
tions board design nor with AFL-CIO cross-stitch. It is sim
ply a ease where the workers wanted mors than the em
ployers were willing to pay;
fher than to try to work. It

Let's turn "back c 1809, when
James M. Bates first saw the! light
of day. and sketdu "very briefly.
his adventurous life. Hia jeple
were pruspei ous and prominent
in Washington, D. C. He was stu
dious and Bteady until 15, when,
being a great reader, a book of
adventures in travel fell Into his
hands. I I
After absorbing the tall I tales
of that book, there was no at
traction for the " restless boy in
the quiet capital city on the! calm
Potomac. His people ' becoming
alarmed over his wild fancies,
he was sent to Philadelphia, to
work in the book store of ah old
er brother.
S S
But Philaderphia's quiet Qua
ker streets were more abhorrent
to the ambitious youth than had
been those of Washington. So he
soon ran away, and, furtively
watching his chance to get pas
sage on a vessel any vessel that
was going far from Washington
or Philadelphia he finally was
accommodated.
He remained a sailor fori about
20 years, visiting many lands bor
dexing the seven seas. While in
Washington he had learned the
Printing trades and, besides, had
become a good blacksmith and tin
smith. As he followed the seafar
ing life he acquired a thorough
knowledge of carpentry In all its
branches: learned how to set a
broken bone or sew up a severed
artery and to administer the
known remedies in the medicine
chest of a ship to ailing members
of the crew.
S
There is a tradition, I believe,
that Bates was on the offshore
seas of the north Pacific, if not in
the fresh Waters of our jinlantf
spaces, as early as 1824.
Be that as It may, he came with
the sailing ship Rudder in; 1829,
and on, that vessel entered the
Columbia river. The voyage, trad
ing with the Indians, extended to
the mouth of the Willamette, and
on up to the junction of the Clack
amas river with that stream. The
Rudder is said to have been the
first vessel of size that ever sailed
that far up the . Willamette. She
became BtucK m the uiacaamas
rapids, and was threatened: by lo
cal Indians. But for the warnings
and help of Dr. John McLoughlin,
the Rudder would have been strip
ped, and perhaps scuttled, and its
crew slaughtered.
S
She worked down next to the
site of Scappoose and remained
there, getting a new main! mast.
undergoing repairs and grading

of 1830. . i
The Rudder s crew planted a
garden where Scappoose stands,
in the early months of 1830. It has
been said that Bates planted there
and then the first spuds ever put
out In Oregon soil. That ; Is not
auite true, for the Astors made
gardens as early as 1811
But the
Scappoose plantings were
the first.

The Rudder went up the coast
as far as Alaska early in is so,
thence retraced her wsiy rand
again entered the Columbia as far
as Baker's bay, after which she
went to California ports, ! bought
Spanish horses and took them to
the Sandwich Islands, and.! toward
the close of that year, entered the
Columbia a third time.
Bates then wished to end "his
seafaring career, as he had seen
and enjoyed the climate ; of the
WiUamette valley and had vision-
ed a great future for this section
But no American settlers were
here then, and' it was not until
183? that he had his chance to
train his sea legs for land loco
motion. ' I

BASES OF THE LACK OP
CONFIDENCE
The nerslstent attempt on the
part of the Government to present,
the opposition to today's tenden
r ' 1111 1 "i cies as emanat
ing from f hand
ful of treedy rich
men representing
entrenched priv-
liege will faU.
The President's
speech on Satur
day is a n o t her
such attempt.
Again, the "Head
(t tile Nation"
asserts hia inten-
DoTotay TVoasptea tkn "to work
with all his might and main to
restore and uphold the integrity
of the morals ot democracy
against a small minority group
who seek to reassert their power.
In passing, this column cannot
resist pointing out that under the
American system, there is no such
thing as the "Head of the Nation."
The President of the United States
is not the "Head of the Nation."
The Constitution does not provide
for presidium government. On the
contrary; sovereignty and author
ity re carefully divided between
the state and the. Federal govern
ment, and between the various
branches of the Federal govern
ment itself,-and the very concep
tion of the "Head of the Nation"
is what Jefferson denounced when
he said: "An elective despotism
is not what we fought for."
o
If the issue in this country were
really what the President says It
is: the People vs. a minority of re
calcitrant E c o n o mic Royalists,
there would be no serious opposi
tion whatever to the New Deal
and certainly not in this column.
There would not be that serious
lack of confidence which the
President takes so lightly, forget
ting apparently that confidence is
a prime necessity of democracy,
and that the Union was founded
again to Quote The Federalist
"as the proper antidote for the
disease of faction" and for "that
repose and confidence in the minds
of the people, which are among
the chief blessings of civil so
ciety." The lack of confidence arises
out of observations, which, with
all the good will in the world, it
is impossible to avoid making.
Granting that "the evils that men
do live after them," and that this
Administration has Inherited the
egregious mistakes, follies, waste
fulness, greed, planlessnes, ex
ploitation of natural resources,
erection of top-heavy corporate in
stitutions erected. Incidentally,
by means of the collaboration of a
capitalist-dominated state grant
ed all this what do we see now?
We see that the attempt of 'the
last few years, while it has pro
vided many palliatives, has
brought about no fundamental,
betterment, but instead, has
orougnt new evils into existence.

elimination of the proletariat,
which must be the- object of gen
uine democracy, It is nationalising
and Institutionalising their dis
tress and meeting the unemploy
ment problem by the withdrawal
of millions of our people from
productive enterprise, segregating
them Into what threatens to be
come a permanent sub-standard
class, politically manipulated.
Far from bringing about the de
centralization of wealth al
though, this Is the latest rallying
cry of the Administration its
only urogram for achieving this
desirable end Is to centralize ev
erything under the control of the
Federal government with the
promise to decentralize it later.
This hope has been held out
time and again in history, but the
promise has sever been kept, and
will never be kept as long as man
is a power-loving animal.
Far from meeting the problems
of technological unemployment In
a constructive fashion, it has put
into operation taxation policies
which definitely accelerate the
process.
Far from encouraging and re
leasing fresh -energies and new
enterprise, through which alone
the national income can radically
be augmented, it has adopted Pol
icies which have already .tended
to freeze production at past levels
and now to shrink it, to hold own
ership where It has been, to bur

den the whole wealth-creation
process with a huge load ot public
debt, and a large non-productive
class of lnspector-bureaucrata, so
that the burden of - maintaining
and Increasing the goods and ser
vices which, produced and con
sumed, are the national income,
fall on fewer and fewer shoulders.
' The enormous growth of a class
parasite on the government, plus
professional Job-holders having a
vested interest in the perpetuation
of the policies by. which they, live,
create a pressure group of un
precedented power, which govern
ment manipulates but cannot con
trol. - : v - .

The attempt to create a balance
between agriculture and industry
by a minute control of agricultural ,
production, acre by acre, leads to
quota systems which ' become
value-determining factors, stifling
enterprise and passing the control
from responsible ownership to ir
responsible government bureau
crats, opening the gates for the
law evasions which we knew under
prohibition, and to nationwide
political corrupiion permeating
the grass roots.
The possibility of extended mi
nute control over industry, placing
the destiny of multitudinous and
ever-dynamic activities into the
hands of inexperienced, inefficient
and Irresponsible people, who suf
fer no personal losses by their
mistakes and win no personal
gains by their success, will again
divorce control from responsibility
for consequences.
The centralization of govern
ment, the receding of power and
responsibility from local units
toward remote Federal agencies,
further deprive the citizen of di
rect participation in his public af
fairs, and diminishes his power of
control over those .who govern
him.
In a country founded "to se
cure the blessings of liberty to
ourselves and to our posterity."
where the idea of a government of
limited powers and the antipathy
to extensive Interference in pri
vate affairs, is ingrained In the
whole tradition Inherited from
Anglo-Saxon history and law;
where there is no mysticism of the
state; where our educational sys
tem has traditionally stressed the
development of the Individual to
the point where he can stand on
his own feet these tendencies of
the New Deal encounter profound
psychological resistances, and
these are the base of the lack of
confidence.
Aad if the conflict la exacerbat
ed, between a dependent and uu
free population looking for secur
ity to the benevolent state, and a
stlH free and aggressive popula
tion Jealous of liberty, we' shall
have a fateful struggle In this
country.
And the knowledge of this is the
basis of the lack of confidence.
For the experience1 of all history
vl would seem xo inaicaie inai me
utcome of all such struggles is
Despotism.
. e
This does not mean that those
of us who find ourselves in the
opposition and there are millions
of us who have no financial in
terests at stake deny the reali
ties of the times in which we live,
or the demands for a better social
order. We simply do not see the
better social ' order emerging
through this system.,
- And we believe that the strug
gle, which has been artificially
augmented, can only be resolved
in a way more harmonious with
out native temper, tradition and
goal. ' ' .
We do not believe that It can be
resolved along the lines of Euro
pean social democracies out of
which the present European des
potisms have logically grown
and which were, and are, perme
ated by a Hejellan conception of
the state. ,
And these are the bases ot the
lack of confidence. -Copyright.
