I President Hoovers Book A READING of ex-President Hoover's book "A Challenge to Liberty" gives quite a different impression than his arti cles in the Suturday Evening Tost. There was g militantly criti cal note in the latter, which one almost entirely misses, in the book as a whole. One also received the impression from the articles that Presi dent Hoover was unalterably opposed to both the letter and the spirit of the New Deal; whereas in the book, one can't escape almost the reverse conclusion certainly as far as the "letter" is concerned. In fact reading between the lines of "A Challenge to Lib erty", our conclusion is that President Roosevelt and his prede cessor stand ALMOST on common ground, in the main business of overcoming the depression and putting Uncle Sara on his feet again. , When it comes to a fairer and more equitable distribution of wealth for example, President Hoover obviously favors the legis lative curbing of unregulated exploitation and greed, and by implication at least, does not oppose either the new Securities Act or the reform of stock exchange administration. In the matter of a brain trust, securing the highest intelligence and most expert knowledge obtainable, President Hoover has the same idea as Roosevelt. While the author of "A Challenge to Liberty" inveighs vigorously against regimentation, everyone knows that both as president and secretary of commerce, Mr. Hoover "regimented" thousands of manufacturers into having standard parts in industry a score of standard nuts, bolts, screws, containers and other gadgets, while he also favored other programs of economic discipline and control. On the question of relief, President Hoover agrees that no one in this country should go without food and shelter, but he favors placing the chief burden of relief upon the local commu nities instead of the government. It i; interesting in this direc tion to note that only yesterday the Roosevelt administration through Harry L. Hopkins, advocated the same thing. WHERE is the difference then between President Hoover's political philosophy and the philosophy of President Roosevelt t The difference, we- think, lies principally in method, the two presidents look toward a common goal, but they would reach that goal by different routes. President Hoover would never sanction compulsion, for ex ample, in carrying out the provisions of the NRA. His program would be entirely one of voluntary cooperation. If a merchant refused to follow the rules and regulations of the code he would not go to the courts about it, for that would in his opinion be an infringement on personal liberty, (just what he would do he doesn't say, presumably he would let the matter go.) In the matter of a brain trust he would use brain trusters, not as administrators, but as advisers, a source of Information, not as executives in the field of action. . AX important point which it seems to us, President Hoover overlooks in his bsok, is the question of the permanence of the New Deal. Features of it of course are permanent. And with thoso features tho former president generally speaking, seems, to agree. But other features arc not permanent. President Roosevelt for example !h now engaged in what is generally be lieved to be a complete reorganization and revamping of the XRA. Wlint the outcome will be iio one knows, but it is at least premature to condemn the XRA entirely, before its final form has been determined. THIS book has another feature which the Post articles lacked. Tl line n rlnntli of fnnlitifr nn onriiKclnntc an A ciiiitArWi which gives it a note of almost religious intensity. One can't read the book without granting that the feelings of our only liv ing ex-president have been aroused tremendously, and that his love of liberty through democracy, amounts to a genuine passion. Tot there is no personal animus in the book, no suggestion of partisan appeal, the former president isn't talking to Democrats or Republicans, he is one might say alone on the mountain top, talking to himself and to the world, giving his warning as to what he fears may hnppen to democracy, if present trends continue. I mean over 65 years of age. I still Insist there la no good excuse for younger folk Indulging In such bev-ersges.

Dllle Co.) while makers of non-durables, tobac co, food, shoes, textiles, etc., were nearly back to the 1&23-35 level. These are official figure, and no change in the situation Is evidenced by the Inside estimates for September. This la not exactly a new situation, but It la like the old aaw about the rich getting richer and the poor get ting children. The fast consumption Industries are slowly getting better and the heavy Industrie are slowly getting worse. The farmera have been howling (with Justification) about the dlspar- ity between the price of things they sell and the price of thlnga they buy. To hear some tell It, that waa the whole farm trouble. Weil, If you break down the price figure, you will find that the farmers have Just about reached their parity. In other words, the drouth ha ac complished In three months what all the schemes of government failed to do In years. The current Index of farm price Is around 75, while the Index of all prlcea la only three point away at 78 For the week ending September 8, the official figure was 74.3 for farm prices and 77.8 for all prlcea. Farm prlcea have come ft long way. In March, laat year, they were down to 40.8, while price generally were then 59.8. That means farm prices have come up 35 points, while all prlcea lncreaaed but 18 points (h&lf a much) In a year and a half. It seem strange that the figure on employment and wage are holding up so well. The government statisti cians explain it by saying that the Improvement in consumers' good Industrie offset the decrease of em ployment and payrolls In other llnea. Another explanation la that the fig ures on employment and wage In cludo more consumers' goods fac tories than do the figures on production. WASHINGTON, D .(?.. Sept. 28. Industry la doing nothing worth tslk Ing about, but business generally 1 better than you think. That paradox I disclosed and ex plained by the key figures which Prealdent Rooaevelt receive each month to enable him to keep track of the changing economic situation. These figures ahow that the larger manufacturera had better hold some more secret meetings like the recent one of the durable goods committee. Their business for August wa 67 per cent of normal, while the non-durable gooda producers were operating at 90 per cent ot normal. That means the big manufacturers of steel, ce ment, metals, lumber, etc. bumping the depression bottom, 1 It Is singular also that retail busi ness la doing very well, much better thsn seasonal. August department store aalea were 10 per cent better than seasonal and September was al most as good a month a August. The answer to that, of course. Is the fact that the government Is dol ing out cash in more substantial quantltlea. The FERA and AAA ap pear to be more than making up, ao far. for any deficiencies In the drouth and atrlke regions. In fact, the government la largely responalble even for holding up In dustrial production. If the AAA were not slaughtering all theae cattle, and booming the meat packing Industry, the national ahowlng of Industrial production would not have been 71 per cent of normal, aa It waa In Sep tember. It appears that the government has passed the point of merely priming the business pump and 1 now actu ally pumping with vigor.
