It is iiitfrt'slinj: to nolo ho'w, in tliis coiiiiiiriilivcly slinrt lime, piirtisan hostility 'toward him has clitliiged to enthusiastic niproviil. This chunuc is particularly ilirtii'dililc in tlif Dcniocriitic press mill union!; the Inriiicrs ol' this coimlry, particularly in the Middle West. ' The strongest niid most iiitcllifrcnt support Al Sniilh received wli front the New York World. In the current Yale Review, Mark Sullivan, the well known political writer, calls attention to Hit' interesting fact that the World has recently given Presi dent Hoover the In's-'hcst praise lie has received from any New York newspaper. ' .' ' Tn his proposal for naval disarmament, and his siiKnestion that food tfhips in 'war lie exempted from attack by belligerents, the World 'declares President Hoover has displayed the holiest type of statesmanship, shown In the White House, since Presi dent Wilson's administration. His qualities of initiative, eour-aj-'e and intelligence are praised to the skies by this Democratic newspaper, which opposed his election so vigorously a little over a year nfni. The World declares President Hoover has inaugurated a foii'iliirpoliey, which promises' to mark a new f 1 1 it! better epoch iii the world, and entitles him to the support of all risjht think in); and forward lookinj; Americans regardless of party. Such praise, enmiiiu; from such a source, is liiirii praise in deed. As Mark Sullivan observes, the' World stands supreme in the vifior and enlightenment of its editorial policy mid such a stand means that in Ills foreign Jiolicy the I'resident already has secured the support 'of liberal -opinion, throughout the 1'niled States, resiardless of partisan affiliations. FARMERS FAVOR FARM RELIEF PROGRAM WIIIIJC the farmers of the -Middle West still favor the tie bent lire plan, they also itppreeiale what President Hoover is ' trying to do ill their aid, throiirh the Kami Relief measure. The editor of the Kami .diurnal, the nation's leadin-r agri cultural monthly, in the January Issue, appeals'to all farmers to support the President in his efforts. "Join the co-opcrativx." is the editor's plea. "Althoiifih their membership is rapidly frrowinu;, the co-operatives today have only one-third of the (i.OOO.OllO American farmers on their rolls, and without at least a majority (he staliiliziii,' markctiii"; program of President Hoover's Farm Hoard 'cannot bo made highly effective. "Will or will not, the farmers see the advantage of help intf to organize the sale of farm products at better prices by be eomnV members of the co-operatives? The tide will be turned, one way or tHie other, by the action of the- individual farmer and midline; else. If he only sees himself us lie is the slave of an out-of-date market iiiu system, where the buyer holds the chains, he will throw off his collar, and join up with the co operatives for iMpinlit.v in barfiainiii":." PROMPT ACTION PREVENTED A PANIC IN this direction it is also interesting' to note that this same 'tViirm Jinn'iinl iiriiiseH the President for his action which pre vented a financial panic, and commends the Federal Reserve Hoard for what it did prior to1 the AVall Street crash, to prevent the disaster that eventually occurred. ' Coniiil"; from such a source this commendation must be par- lienlarly jrriilifyitii: to the President. "The Federal Reserve Hoard was roundly condemned by Wall Street operators and speculators, for trying to curb the mad riot of speculation," declares the article, "but now the board's wisdom is treiienilly recognized, and it is plain that, thanks to its' statesmanlike action, the final crash was only a nlinor.'insteiid of a major, one." Treatina the same subject, Dr. W. T. Foster, director of the Polliik Foundation'' for Kconomic Uescnrch. commends the Hoo ver administration as follows: "I'l'CHidcnt Hoover's action in promoting government construc tion projects , And organizing business lcutlci'H to combat thu threatened depression will yield the country, probuhly, ut least a billion dollars of wealth which otherwise would not have been created. And It will savo lit least a million families within thu next four or five months from the tragedy of unemployment." The Hoover policy will not prevent sonic minor fluctuations and "no ahull hu disappointed if we expect to realize promptly thu lull benefits or these expenditures," say the collaborators. "Hut nobody should lose tulth in the President's great experiment bemuse It takes lime for the full benefits to mature." The Hoover program will prove lor the first time, that coordi nated action by business leaders can forestall the period ol Inde cision and lutreiichinout Hint has always followed financial depres sion, tho economists believe. "The Immediate significance of the President's action In tills crisis Is runiill. compared with Its tillimule significance. "Ill the iast, when depression threatened, it w-as wise for each business concern to curtail nrdeis, reduce payrolls, postpone ex pnuslon of plant, pay elf bunk loans In short, to do precisely what would bring on the depression. Hut this was good policy lor the concern only If concerted action would not bo taken on a large enough scute to foresliill depression. "Hut the new policy of thu chief executive renders the present emergency unlike any other. The concerted action of private and public business, under bis leadership, mukes It In the Interest of each Individual to do precisely .what Is nood for business us a whole." . .... ,. , ..... i Tubulating the concrete results of tbe Hoover conlerenccH MUTT AND JEFF WARS too PRoFCSSofi-. rWMM,VooT 0M 00?; AND V0U'R WHAT CAN I s CAN I o 1 i MUTT, Trt5 BCAOTY I i w THt J flT -V0O'R PRoFSS6l STIU IN I 60 Uo TO S TO SWUT CAV VSS J 'r" i " '' f ' -"' 1 tJ- , !.c. 1 r- .. Back to the Soil with business leaders and governmental department heads, Or. Kosfer continues: . "The railroad heads assure the President that they will 'pro ceed with full programs of construction and betterments." That means employment and wages In excess of 108. Then there Is the national program for highway construction, which already calls for more than two billion dollars; and the public utilities p!un to spend nearly as much. This means for 1930 a substantial increase over l'JM. Stuto uml municipal authorities all over the country have promised to help. The btilldltiK program of the federal government culls for a large Increase, and another gain will coiuu through the building ol' mail-carrying ships. Total pro jects reported to the White House arc impressive. lOight billions Is n conservative estimate for construction and maintenance in 1030, already provided for and recorded. "For the first time la our history we have a President who, by technical training, engineering achievement, cabinet experience, and a graps of economic fundamentals, is qualified for business leadership. And for the first time in our history the heads of our largest business enterprises are prepared to follow sik.ii leader ship." ...... Personal Health Service By WILLIAM BRADY, M. D.
