News Behind The News By Paul Mailon The Associated Press ts exclusively entitled to the use for publication ol all news dispatches credited to It or not otherwise credited In this gaper and also local news published herein. A Merited Conviction Kirk DeJonge, communist lender and professional fo- fnentor of turmoil in behalf of a proletariat revolution, has been convicted by a Portland jury of criminal syndicalism and sentenced to seven years in the state prison. A stay of execution lias been granted pending appeal. Characteristically, DeJonge refused to ask for the clem ency recommended by the jury. He naturally would, for he is a fanatical crusader and seeks a crown of martyrdom for the cause, hoping thereby to become a cause celebre for na tionul propaganda. It's the way of communist agitators. The comparatively severe sentence plays into the hands of the communists, though the punishment was merited, for DeJonge and his associates preach the destruction of the re public by revolution, and avail themselves of the laws they defy only when called to account. We are a very tolerant people and permit any kind of agitation which has for its objective change by peaceful methods provided under the constitution. It is only when change by violence is preached, supplemented by sabotage, bombing, rioting and bloodshed, that the law interferes for its own preservation. Deportation to Russia where com munists can get a dose of their own medicine is the proper punishment, but as it is impossible in DeJonge's case, the only way left is to incarcerate him as a safeguard to society. Trade and Diplomacy The influence of trade upon diplomacy and international policy was never better shown than in the altered relations between Russia and Germany. Until the ascent of Hitler, the Soviet Union based its foreign policy on the maintenance ol friendly relations with Germany, which the latter recipro cated, and was in turn given most of Russia's orders for in dustrial machinery. With the triumph of nazi-ism, with its hostility towards communism and the Soviet government, Russia soon lost pa tience and when Berlin refused to modify its attitude, even in self interest, the Bolsheviks began to exercise diplomatic pressure on the nazis. Russia joined the League of Nations and entered into a political understanding with the French, some reports going so far as to include and offensive and defensive alliance against German in case of war. These political movements have been effective principally in applying economic pres sure. Russia cut down Germany's foreign trade to the mini mum, and started paying off debts as a notice of ending busi ness relations. The continuing slump in foreign commerce has aggre vated the prolonged domestic crisis in Germany, and it3 ef fect is apparent in the changed attitude of Hitler, who is displaying "unexpected amiability" towards Russia. Anti Russian propaganda has ceased and a German credit of 200 million marks on easy terms has been sent to Moscow to re vive trade. All of which proves that the Soviets are masters of diplomacy. Election Comparisons Figures for the election again emphasizes the extra ordinary number of people who fail to vote. The total vote cast in VXi'i was 5'J.U percent of the total potential not re gistered voting population. The 1934 vote was M.7 percent of those entitled to register and vote. Of those registered, less than (iO percent voted. Why this is the case, no one seems to know, but every election records similar apathy, no mat ter the issues. Republicans seek to gain comfort from the election sta tistics of 1934. The total vote was 29,808,071, of which the democrats cast 16,285,096 and the republicans 13,522,975, the percentage being democrats 54.6, republicans 45.3. In 1932 the total vote was 38,583,698, the Roosevelt vote 22, 821,875, and the Hoover vote 15,761,841. The democratic vote of 1934 was 71.36 per cent of its 1932 vote and the re publican vote 85.8 percent, indicating less republican loss than democratic. The democrats point out. however, that the slump in democratic votes was in the south, whore in an off year, the fight is all in the primaries, and the repubicans put up no opposition and the election merely perfunctory. In some northern states, the republicans held their own or increased, but in others, like Pennsylvania and Indiana, they went to pieces. In the light of congressional returns, only an optimist can find encouragment for republicans m the 1934 results. Washington, Nov. 27 One of Mr. Roosevelt's best friends broke down and confessed off the record recent ly that the main thin? wrong with the new deal was the new dealer. Being one of them, he spoke with authority and his words dug deep: "More and more every day this is getting to ne a one - man paiti mai show, not because the president wants it to be, but because so few men around him have the vision and capacity to take the load from him. It is singular, after all the big work done so far, that so few new dealers have dis tinguished themselves doing it. "Everyone knows that the presi dent has had to rely mainly on a few trusted old nds, college pro fessors and army officers. He has practically exhausted those fields and the results could hardly be called sensational. "If the new deal fails, it will not be because the policies were bad, but because they were badly administered." Flying Wedffe The new dealers have shied away from talking about tho bucket shop raids because the New York, Boston and Baltimore raids involved undercover tactics. ine race is that the raiding squad has adopted a flying wedge tech nique which is the latest accom- pu.snment of new deal reform ac tivity. The squad is led by Biff Tim finl. lnhan, former All-American center ac yaie, who knows football phi losophy. When citizens complain of being gyped by a bucket shoo, the Sec turns the complaints over to Calluhan. He descends on the bro kerage house just before closing. Io-ks the doors, closos the telenhone Uiw and establishes himself in the lurgcst chair as a magistrate. No word or person goes In or out until Mr. Callahnn has taken the testi mony of all and looked over the records. In Baltimore he knpt a broker ano house locked all night. The idea is to avoid all habeas corpus lawyers until Mr. Callahan makes a touchdown. Excuse It, Plrasc This column was wrong in describing (Nov. 22) a particular letter written by A. P. i of L. Chairman Green to the White House, submittinrr a list of demands. What happened was that Mr. Green wrote three letters (Nov. 5) to the White House submitting the de mands of the A. P. of L. conven tion not his own. In these letters ho did not ask for an appointment with the president. Ten days after Mr. Qreen wrote his letters he received three routine responses from the president's as- .stalnnt secretary. These stated the A. F. of I,, resolutions had been re ferred to various departments. That clear up the correspondence angle but does not alter the peculiar un derlying situation existing between the White House and the A. P. of L., as described in that column. An effort to clear up the situation may be made when Mr. Roosevelt re turns from warm Springs. Counting The word has gone around on the inside that the re publican New Mexican senator, Branson Cutting, Is going to be counted out In the senate. That is why you saw Senator Norrls say the other day that his friend Mr. Roosevelt made a mis take in opposing Cutting and Far mer-Laborite Senator Shipstead. Norrls got wind of what Is afoot and is trying to get the president to stop It. Cutting's democratic opponent, Chavez, really believes he can make out a cose in two counties. Also, he will make some charges about hir ing automobile workers on election day in certain sections. When an election is as close as that one, it is a simple matter for the preponderantly heavy demo cratic senate majority to resolve all doubts in favor of the democrats. That was demonstrated only a few years ago in the Brookhart case. All the democrats will have to do is to find a legal pretext for can celling a few thousand Cutting votes. Any 4-cyiinder lawyer can arrange it without difficulty. Notes The latest is that the V. P. (You may recall his name Is Garner) is not going to Warm Springs but will come directly to Washington around December 10. It looks as if he is not in an extra big hurry to get into the speaker ship argument or the bonus com promise. Secret Service Assistant Murphy permitted newsmen to Inspect the counterfeit $100 bills recently seized. but carefully counted them after ward to se: that none was missing. Strangely, none was. The leading FDIC Economist Pox is a nephew ot Treasury secretary Morgenthau. Some time back he tried to get Morgenthau to give him a job. Morgenthau declined because he did not want to oe accused oi nepotism. So Fox got his job from FDIC Chairman Crowley, without Morgenthau's help, and now he just about runs the place.
