Keynes Adoice Followed
A'.'
FEW day ago under the
Maynard Keynes, noted British economist, regarding Roose
velt's economic and monetary policies.
Keynes favored easing off
federal expenditures for public
pedal on buying gold in the open market, and working toward
a commodity dollar; and all steam ahead on eventual stabiliza
tion of the dollar, and a managed currency.
A more careful study of President Roosevelt's two mes
sages, indicates strpngly that the course advised by Keynes,
is precisely the course, the President intends to follow.
1VT R A has not been abandoned and probably won't be, but
" General Johnson has already liberalized many of its pro
visions, and in his message, President Roosevelt devoted very
little space to this phase of his New Deal.
The sensational request for six billions in borrowed money,
can only mean one thing: that the government plans a pro
gram of direct spending, UNPRECEDENTED in this country,
during times of peace.
In the matter of a commodity dollar,-heretofore, the Presi
dent has emphasized a dollar "with EXACTLY the same pur
chasing power and debt paying power from generation to
generation." In his recent message he spoke of a dollar which
"will have over the years, less variable purchasing and debt
paying power." The first is the commodity dollar. The second
is managed currency.
liniETHER or not Mr. Keynes' open letter was directly
responsible for this radical change In the administrations
policies, we don't know. The short time elapsing between the
publication of the letter and the President's message renders
the truth of such an explanation, improbable.
But there ia NO doubt, that
Deal, President Roosevelt and
mist, are seeing things eye to
future, in perfect step I

So while the Republican orators will no doubt continue to
view with alarm and predict national bankruptcy, we doubt
very much if the American people as a WHOLE either follow
them, or share their apprehension.
IN THE first place tho basis of the alarm is nothing new. The
Republicans didn't discover the deficit. President Roosevelt
did that himself.
In the second place, if that, deficit DOES spell national
bankruptcy, why hnsn't something happened ALREADY!

A "Farmer" Analyzes the Sales Tax
To the Editor:
In all discussions about taxes there
are two points that stand out quite
clearly. The first Is that all public
expenditures, be It city, oounty, state
or national, come from the earnings
of all the people and that every single
one of us contributes to that public
expenditure In a great or lesser de
gree. Far too Urge a proportion of our
voters fail to appreciate this fact and
therefore because it draws no checks
In favor of the sheriff or collector
of internal revenue. Joyously vote for
public expenditure, tn the mistaken
belief that all of the skin comes from
the other fellow's hide. The far
larger proportion of votes for these
public expenditures It thinks It can
make some other, fellow or class- pay
most of the tax levied to meet them.
Theoretically, we are all willing to
pay our fair shrre of government In
exchange for the benefits and pro
tection we receive from our govern
ment, the ability to pay, that la In
come, being considered, but every
Individual earning an Income paying
something, however small the amount.
Practically most of use are concern
ed In soaking the other fellow and In
so doing cutting down our contri
bution. This self-interest factor leads
to the second point standing out
clearly, that the arguments for and
against any particular tax are almost
never frank and honest. Every pos
sible effort la made to befog the Issue
by appeals to emotion, prejudice and
self-interest and always sinister mo
tives must be attributed to the fellow
arguing the other side of the ques
tion. Human nature being what It Is,
this la all natural enough, but If!
Democracy la going to maintain Itself
with reasonable efficiency the aver
age voter must learn to discount these
partisan statements.
To my mind the most important
factor in the prosperity of the coun
try as a whole Is the farmer, the
man who gets his own living from the
land and feeds all the others. If he
cannot make a decent Uvtng the scale
of living for everybody else muse

votes up to 1933, helped the other
fellow's game. Unprotected himself,

Notes
The biggest kid at the White House

that Is no exaggeration. He stayed
up until 2 a. m.
Mr. Roosevelt sounded a new key
note for the consumer organisations
In his message saying they ahould
'enter the market place equipped
with sufficient organization to Insist
upon fair prices and honest sales."
Morgenthau has sought to bury the
hatchet with the press. He Invited
the boys out to dinner recently.
The government is not guarantee

step Is needed In order to market
that type of paper.
In a speech the other day Jerome
Franck, the liberal leader In the AAA,
made the statement that the Roose

the profit system. He said those op

fits In anugly with the president's
message to congress.
