Tribune Comment on the 1 Day's News By FBASK JENKINS THERE 1 oratory In congress over the tax bill. There haa to be. It la by oratory of that eort that senators and congressmen who NEED votes get votes. Alter the oratory la all over, the tax bill will be passed. It will be passed because it HAS to be. Ciicle Sam has been spending more than he has been taking In, and tha't can't go on Indefinitely. HEHE Is a statement made recent ly by a noted financial author ity and printed In one of the lead ing national magazines: "Business courage right now la scarce because back in 1030 a lot of our ablest and wealthiest men had courage an backed their courage with money and LOST IT ALL In the price slump of 1931. "Now they have neither courage nor money." JUST a, minute. Let's see what It was that these courageous leaders REALLY DID with their money back In 1830, just before they loit It In the further alump of 1931. They bought atocks with It, believ ing that the atock market had hit bottom and that prlcea would go up again, thus enabling them to make s lot of money quickly and easily. That la to say, they GAMBLED AGAIN. Just as they had gambled back in 1938 and 1929. THIS writer, who Is not a financial authority and whose opinion is probably not worth much, la quite certain in hla own mind that pros perity will never be brought back by the kind of courage that Is displayed in buying atocks on the market In the hope that they will go up quick ly, thua enabling the buyer to make a lot of EASY MONEY. THE kind of courage that will bring prosperity back la that which Is displayed In reorganizing industry to meet new conditions, cutting out the wastes and inefficiencies that devel oped in flush times, getting -prices down to what people with lowered Incomes can pay, developing new pro ducts to aupply new deslrea and ao creating work to be done by those who are now OUT OF WORK. The reason our present bustness leadership Is poor and Inadequate is that too many of our so-called lead . era can think only in terms of the atock market. In the big stock gambling years, when money was made by gambling rather than by hard work, they for got how to think In terms of con structive business achievement. HERE Is a curloua Item In the news of the day; contained in a dis patch from Moscow: "The crime of sabotage, which has been gaining Increased attention from soviet- authorities of late, brought eentenoe of death to elg.1t persons today." SABOTAGE pronounced "sabo TAZH," and meaning the destruc tion of the machinery of Industry by the workers, by such devices aa put- ting emery dust in bearings was de vised by communism. Moscow Is the world center of communism. But in Moscow communism Is now the established order, and the estab lished order alwaye tends TOWARD conservatism and AWAY FROM radi calism in any form. So, you see, communism In Mos cow, whlc,h is now the established order. FROWNS upon sabotage, whose prpoee Is the destruction of the established order frowns upon It so severely that It decrees death as the penalty for practicing it. It's a funny world. Isn't ut PERHAPS you wonder t.hst. In the long run. will hsppen In Russia. If you really want to form a sound opinion as to that, read the history of France after the revolution. Revolutionary Franco was aa radl- ! revolutionary Russia. It was Just aa bloody. But with each year phoee purpose ia the destruction of cam LESS radical and MORE con servative. Now France Is one of the most con servative countrlea on earth. IP YOU want to get a really sound perspective on nearly everything that la happening In the world to day, READ HISTORY.
