THE NEXT PRESIDENT
Roosevelt has been chosen by the people the next presi­
dent of the United States. There are many of us especially
in Oregon who did not vote for him. However, we must
“give and take” in a democracy if we would have a stable
government and peace and tranquility in the land. Now
that Roosevelt has been elected he is entitled to all our sup-
j»ort in a united effort to drive depression from the land.
Roosevelt offered no great constructive program in his
campaign. It is altogether likely, since many of the demo­
crats in congress had a hand in framing the reconstruction
legislation by President Hoover, that he will embrace most
of these instruments when he takes hold next March. In
w hich case it may disappoint some of those whose ideas of
a "new deal" is some sort of revolution but perhaps it will
be best for the country, if the policies now in effect are
turning the tide of depression. At any rate we should know
by March how much of a "new deal" is necessary.
For the good of the nation it behooves all Republicans
and Socialists as well to back up the new president for good
government is more important than the success of any
party or candidates in winning the election.
4 PER CENT BEER BY CHRISTMAS
The present prohibition law declares beer of more than
one-half of one per cent alcohol to be intoxicating. The
old fashioned beer that used to be sold so freely in pre­
prohibition days contained about 71 m per cent of alcohol.
A great deal of the home brew and the so-called beer that
is being sold in speakeasies today contains alcohol up to 20
per cent. There isn't any question about 20 per cent beer
being intoxicating.
But a very strong showing will be made to prove that
4 per cent beer is not intoxicating up to the limits of the
amount of beer that an ordinary individual can drink at
one time, and the brewery interests are very hopeful that
they can get this percentage of beer legalized.
In that case, however, they do not anticipate the re­
turn of the saloon. Plans are all completed for the produc­
tion of bottled beer to be sold mainly in drug stores, over
the soda fountain, or delivered by grocers at residences.
The prices to the consumer, dependent upon the tax im­
posed, will probably be from fifteen cents a bottle upward.
How much effect the legalizing of 4 per cent beer would
have upon the whole prohibition agitation is another ques­
tion, however.
We will probably see this legislation put over by the
democrats in this session of Congress in December, and fol­
lowing that the democratic effort to repeal the eighteenth
amendment by submitting it to the states for rejection.

THE SHOE ON THE OTHER FOOT
We hear a lot of talk about American money that has
been lent to foreign nations, and a good deal of this talk
suggests that people think there was something wrong
about the efforts of the United States government and of
the international bankers to help those countries get on
their financial feet.
Certainly during the war when the United States lent
the allied nations something like twelve billion dollars with
which to carry on the war, nobody thought our govern­
ment was doing anything wrong. In the period since the
war, a great many more billions of American private funds
were lent to European and South American nations. One
or two of these nations are behind on their interest pay­
ments on their bonds. Some of the people who have not
been able to sell these bends at the price they paid for them
are making a big fuss. They think that the government
somehow ought to have prevented the bankers from buy­
ing these foreign bonds.
It looks as if the people who talk this way had forgot­
ten all about the hundred years in which the United Sûtes
government and the individual states and our big corpora­
tions were selling our bonds abroad, borrowing money
from the more prosperous countries of Europe to develop
our own backward country. Practically all of our main
railroad trunk lines were built with money borrowed from
England, Holland, France and Germany.
There is a good deal of criticism still in some circles
in Europe over the failure of some of our sû tes to pay
back the money they borrowed from European investors
seventy-five years and more ago.
The shoe is on the other foot now. We are beginning
to realize some of the responsibilities and troubles of be­
coming a creditor nation instead of being, as the United
States was for a hundred and fifty years, a debtor nation
