The Man for the Job s
YES, Franklin D. Roosevelt is a true Roosevelt. He is 100
percent objective. He has bounce. Like T. R. he abhors
weazel words. He never allows his resolution to be "sicklied
over by the pale cast of thought." He is a master at compro
mise as is every skillful politician, but only when compromise is
essential to achievement. A decision once made, in he goes eyes
front, and banners flying, with no outward evidence at least
of any misgivings as to the result.
It is an invaluable quality, for the occupant of the White
House to possess at such a time as this. For such a spirit is
contagious. Such SELF confidence breeds PUBLIC confidence.
Had this country at the present critical time, a leader who was
indecisive, timid, wanted to do the right thing, but never could
quite make up his mind, in the midst of so many conflicting
opinions, as to the Tightness of his own view, the country would
be lost.
OF course no human being in the president's position, can
DEEP down, be as self assured, and self confident as he
APPEARS to be. His responsibilities are tremendous. Condi
tions are still critical. Every policy he advocates has its opposi
tion, for every "expert" that tells him one thing, there is anoth
er "expert" to tell him another. .
But whatever doubts and misgivings the president may have
within, he never shows them to the outside world, nor accord
ing to reliable report to his intimates. He comes nearer being
captain of his soul and master of his fate" than any occupant
of the White House, since his redoubtable, Rooseveltian prede
S quality in our opinion is inborn.. It is bred in the fibre
the man. It can't be cultivated. It simply is there, or
it isn't. ' .
Fortunately for President Roosevelt and his country, in his
case, there it is. When all is said and done it is the secret of his
leadership, the best augury of his ultimate success.
To get out of this mess, the country had to have a real
leader, with the accent on the REAL. That is what (we admit
to the surprise of this newspaper) the country HAS in Presl
dent Roosevelt.

It means that as long as Frank
lin D. Roosevelt holds the reins ot
power w are going on with the New
Deal.
Tou may not Ilk it. Like the
hard-boiled advocate of th old order
who was quoted In this column the
other day, you may feel that It would
have been better for us to die of our
ailment than to do what w have
done.
But, barring an upheaval of pub
Mo opinion, w are going ahead with
th new order. The President, in hia
meage, leaves no doubt of that.

had to part with 75 cents for two

system for the next three.
Gosh, I like to listen to that editors

tor In practice can manage somehow
to keep In mind the fact that the
world la not so sordid and ugly as It
may appear to his professional eye,
But I am conducting a health col
umn and It sickens me to find that
the most frequent question asked by
those contemplating marriage or re
cently married Is about "birth con
trol."
The editor's report of her success
ful syatem brought In many letters
about the hardships of paying lor
1933 model baby.
I gather that people take It Is
hardship mainly because nobody who
can net out of It Is doing It: whereas
paying for the family chariot Is not
so hard because everybody'a doing It.
One prospective mother who had
borne two children without difficulty,
had "Ben Told" it "would go hard
with her this time because she Is now
nearly 40. That's Just on of those
old trsdltlons. So this time she de
cided to go to a hospital, a so-called
free hospital. She says she was kept
waiting hours, and then, having
passed through six officials, she wmi
curtly informed that she must pay
$65 in Installments, $10 cash down,
and the doctor advised her she
shouldn't have the baby If finances,
were uncertain ....
Well, wtiy did the lady flock to
the hospital or clinic along with the
rest of the sheep? If ahe had been
in America long enough to speak and
write the language ahe ought to know
that a doctor who la really good prac
tices under hi own name, not under ;
the name of a hospital, clinic, asso-'
elation, corporation or institute. She
ought to know, too, that these "free"' 1

doctors who can't make a go of lt:

Finally, ahe ought to know that stu

get 'their experience serving as assist-;

institutions. These apprentices usi- :
ally assume more or lea of the re
sponsibilities of physicians and sur
geons, but are paid perhaps $25 a
month by the institution. Likewise, i

It any wonder such an Institution i
can deliver a baby, after, a fashion. 1

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
It fa a. Bit Beyond the Clinic.
My physician recommends removal
of my tonsils. He says the diathermy
Lmethod has been discarded by all the
best clinics . . . Mr. H. W.
Answer Send a atamped envelope
bearing your address and ask, for the
name of a physician In your vicinity
who Is skilled In diathermy extirpa
tion of the tonsils. The method Is a
bit too difficult for the tyros in
clinics, and It calls for greater skill
and patience than most Inexperi
enced young doctors have.
Consumption Not Romantic.
For the past week I have been
omitting my regular lunch and tak
ing Instead a pint of milk and three
or four graham cracker. Mother
contends this la not enough nourish
ment for one who worka. I am five
feet seven lnche tall and weigh 142
pounds, and feel fine. Ingrld.
Answer You don t weigh an ounce
too much for a girl of your height.
Your lunch fa all right provided you

welfare of the FEW.
rOO may not agree with that.

humble Individual, whose opinion Is

doea agree.
T IS BETTER, In thla wrlter'a Judg.

what they need than that the lew
should have more than they can use.
If the New Deal can, bring that
about, It will be one of tne great
steps In human progress.
THE PRESIDENT Bays:
"Civilization can not go back.
Civilization must not atand still. We
have undertaken new methods. It
la our task to perfect, to Improve, to
alter when necessary, but In all cases
to go forward."
The foundera of thla nation, who
were regarded aa radical. In their
time, felt pretty much that way about
It. but what they went ahead and
did brought a new day to the world.

PART of the New Deal Is lnsur
i ance of bank deposits, for the
present up to 2S0O, which la now In
effect.
That is to say. when you deposit
your money in the bank, up to 3500
for the present, you are Inaured
through the agency of the Federal
Deposit Insurance corporation, which
la controlled and backed by the gov
ernment, that you will get It back
again.
THE very big banks In th, big cltlea,
generally speaking, have been op
posed to deposit Insurance.
Probably they are sincere In their
opposition. Let us at least give them
the benefit of the doubt. But what
they fear, undoubtedly, la that de
posit Insurance, for which they will
have to help pay, will make the
smallest bank In the federal reserve
system aa safe aa the biggest bank.
That will remove a competitive ad
vantage which the big banka have
had In the past.
BUT also It should tend to keep
within the emsller communities
the money that la theirs. Instead of
draining It away to the bigger cen
ters, aa haa happened In the recent
past.
OPPONENTS of deposit Insurance
aay It -will encourage unsound
bsnklng.
la that true?
Only experience can tell. But thla
much can be said: Banka are only
as sound aa the men who run them.
If the right kind of men run the
banks, they will be sounder than ever
with deposit Insurance, for each bank
will have ALL banks back of It.
