An "Error to Be Corrected
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT declared at the outset that hii
New Deal waa experimental. His every effort wag devoted
to breaking the back of the depression and bringing not only
prosperity but a better prosperity a prosperity not for the
few but for ALL. He would try a number of things, those that
succeeded would be retained ; those that failed would be drop
ped and something better substituted. He took great pains to
have the people know, his program was NOT irrevocably
FIXED, it waa one of trial and error.
RETURNING to this country, after an ocean voyage of many
weoka, there is good reason to believe the president will
soon revamp, and in many directions radically modify, Borne
features of the New Deal. There will be in effect a NEW
"New Deal." Just what.ltg features will be we don't know.
But if the information we have is" correct, there is little
doubt that the president will heed the protests of the "Retail
Furniture Dealers of Oregon, Incorporated" and promptly
scotch the proposal to put the government into the furniture
and mattress business.
According to information furnished by this association, the
Federal Relief administration
its own relief workrooms and with relief labor, two million mat
tresses and quilts to be distributed among the needy and un
employed. "
Officials of the association declare flooding the market with
such a supply of mattresses will
artificially boost the already
will rob thousands of bedding factory employees throughout the
country, of what little work there is available for them now.
The protest concludes:
"Th furnltur. dealer, do not wish to prevent any poor
prson from receiving a mattress for USE during the emergency
of that Individual when he la out of employment, but they feel
some plan should be worked out which would make the matter
one of an emergency character, rather than a permanent removal
from the retailer, of future customer, for the next 10 or 16
year,."
...
It appears to this paper that the basis for protest is perfectly
sound. Materials and articles
private industry, not by the
competition AGAINST it. Only when an absolute monopoly
exists, and abuses accumulate which legislation FAILS to re
move, would any but an out and out socialistic government be
justified in invading the realm
retail distribution.
Outside the possible field of
exists. We are quite sure, that if the facts as related by this
association, are correct, President Roosevelt will so modify the
F.E.R.A. that the injustice to legitimate private induslry, will
promptly be removed.

A CONDITION has now arrived which was predicted in this
flnllimn TtAnrlv n vaat. arm
At that time, local enthusiasm for the New Deal, particularly
the N.R.A., was strong. To quostion the wisdom or desirability
of any detail, was little short of treason. Publio meetings were
held, committees were named, rousing speeches were made,
business men as a whole were tumbling over themselves to get
N.R.A. placards in their windows.

For those minor criticisms

remarked at the time, that when the final showdown came,
many of those yelling loudest for Roosevelt, would be cursing
him the hardest. We predicted
enthusiastic lip service at the outset, but when it began to hurt,
reactionary Democrats would be joining reactionary Republi

storm blew over, many of those who found fault with certain
features of the New Deal, but

No one has done more for the
wrestling game than Jack Curlsy.
Ninety per cent of sport writers and
most of the public think It a thim

his shock of snow-white hair ami
bland geniality, has gone right ahead
and built It to th point where It
draws second to championship prize
fights. He fills his ringsldes with
movie and stage stars and a sprinkle
of the Social Register. Most people
leave a wrestling bout with sheepish
feeling It's pretty much phoney. But
so dangerous looking are the slams

any.

Comment

Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS.
GOOD NXW8I
An end to th. strlk that haa
paralyzed Pacific coast ocean com
merce lno May 9 Is definitely in
sight as la.OOd longshoremen from
Belllngham to San Diego prepare to
return to their Jobs today.
Two of th teamen', union, have
announced, at these words are writ
ten, that they will return to work,
and other, are sxpected to follow.
WS ALL want prosperity, which
mean. Job. and wages, and the
way to get It la for everybody for
whom a Job can possibly be found to
go to work.
Idleness never brought prosperity
yet.
MORI! good news If It Is true:
Stsnley Baldwin, acting prime
minister of Oreat Britain, saya In a
speech In th house of commons that
there is no Immediate danger of war
In Europe, despite the difficulties and
perplexities of the present situation.
WAR in Europe might help us tem
porarily, by creating a war mar
ket for our aurplus production. But
In the long run It would HURT.
War, In -the long run, ALWAYS
hurta business.
TEMPORARILY,' the drouth In the
Middle West Is helping us out
here on the Pacific coast by providing
more demand at better prlcea for our
ample crops.
But let's not fool ourselves. In the
long run, we'll be hurt more than
we're helped by th Mlddlo West
drouth, which Is reducing buying
power back there, and so limiting
future market for our aurplua pro
ducts. Whatever hurt any considerable
number of people. In any part of the
world, soonor or later hurts EVERY
BODY. rIS 1 the moral:
W can't thrive on the other fel
low, misfortune. We may think for
a while that we can, but In the long
run we'U learn better.
The way for EACH of us to have
prosperity la for ALL of us to have
prosperity.
It sounds ilk a Sunday School
motto, but lt'a tru.
T ITTINa back at RemihllcAns who
have attacked the administra
tion's farm program. Secretary of
Agriculture Wallace, speaking In
Louisiana, says:
"The battle cry of the old dealers
is: 'Pile up the surpluses again'."
THAT, of course isn't true, and
Secretary Wallace knowa it.
What critics of the farm program
assert la that you can't remove sur
pluses by passing a law.
If It were that easy, there would
never be such a thing aa a surplus.
TWO THINGS, in the past, have
been effective In reducing agri
cultural surpluses.
One is general prosperity, enabling
people to CONSUME MORS FOOD.
The other la unfavorable weather
drouths, floods, etc. which reduces
production.
We're having the drouths, and we're
HOPING f? prosperity. So it may
be that Ins cud of agricultural sur
pluses Is In sight. -
But It won't be passing a law that
will put an end to them.

MARRIED FOR 70 YEARS
QUEEN CITY, Mo. (UP) Msrrled
70 yesrsl
That's the record of Mr. and Mrs.
Baty s. Collins of Queen City.
Whe they recently celebrated their
70th snnlversary of married life, Col
Una propounded his views oa
mony and was particularly scsthlng
in denouncing the modern Institu
tion of divorce.
"It's a ahame the way young folks
get divorced these dsys," he said.
"It eems they get married Just for
fun. Of course. It's human nature
to get out of sorts at times, but I'd
never leave my woman to suffer. I've
been mad enough at times to sk:p
out and go back to the army. If I
didn't believe as I do."
And Mra. CUlona. sitting quietly in
a rocker, smilingly agreed.
Collins, a Civil war veteran, recall
ed his financial plight after be:n?
mustered out of the army. He aa'd
he had a hard time at first, but al
waya managed to eke out an exist
ence. He finally succeeded In getting
8 a month pension and with that
money bought and paid for the house
where they are now living.
Eight of 11 children are now living
and Collin recalled how at the last
reunion he gave each of them 1100.
"And I had 15 or SO cents left, toj."
he chuckled.
A Republican, he expressed a hope
President Roosevelt would come out
on top, but, he a ided, "I Just don't
eee how he Is going to do It."
And Mr. Collins, a confirmed Dem
ocrat, smiled tolerantly.
