WASHINGTON, D. C, Nov. 37.
One of Mr. Roosevelt's best friends
broke down and confessed off
the record re
cently that the
main thing wrong
with the new deal
aa the new
dealer.
Being one of
them, he spoke
with authority
and his words
dug deep:
"More and more
this la getting to
be a one-man
show, not be
cause the presi
dent wants It to be, but because so
few men around him have-the vision
and capacity to take the load from
him. It la singular, after all the big
work done so far. that ao few new
dealers have distinguished themselves
doing t,
"Everyone knows that the presl
dent has had to rely mainly on f
few trusted old friends, college pro
feasors and army . officers. He has
nractlcallly exhausted those fields
and the results could hardly be call
ed sensational.
"If the new deal falls. It will not
because the policies were bad. but
because they were badly administered."
Flying Wedge
The new dealers have shied away
from talking about the bucket shop
raids because the New York, Boston
and Baltimore raids Involved under
cover tactics. The fact la that the
raiding "squad has adopted a flying
wedge technique which Is the latest
accomplishment of new deal reform
activity.
The squad Is led by big .Tlm- Calla
han, former all-Amerlcal centcf at
Yale, who knows football phllosopsy.
When citizens complain of being
gypped by a bucket shop, the SEC
turns the complaints over to Calla
han. He descends on the brokerage
house Juat before closing, locks the
doors, closes the telephone line and
establishes himself In the largest
chair as a magistrate. . No word or
person goes In or out until Mr. Cal
lahan, has taken the testimony of all
and looks over the records.
In Baltimore he kept a brokerage
bouse locked all night. The Idea la t
avoid all habeas corpua lowyers un
til Mr. Callahan makea a touch
down.
Excuse It, Please
This column was wrong In descrlb
ing (Nov. 231 a particular letter writ
ten by A. P. of L. Chairman Oreen
to the White House, submitting a '.1st
of demands. What happened was
that Mr. Oreen wrote three letters
(Nov. 51 to the White House sud
mining the demands of the A. P. of
I. convention not his own. in inese
lettera he did not ask for an appoint
ment with the president.
Ten days after Mr. Oreen wrote
his letters he received three routine
business responses from -the presl
dent's assistant "secretary. These
stated the A. P. of L. resolutions had
been referred to various departments.
That clears up the correspondence
angle but does not alter the peculiar
underlying situation existing between
the White House and me a. r. oi u,,
aa described In that column. An ef
fort may be made clear up the situa
tion when Mr. Roosevelt returns from
Warm Springs.
Counting
The word has gone around on the
Inside that the Republican New Mex
lean senator, Bronson Cutting, la go
Ing to be counted out In the senate.
That Is why you saw Senator Norrls
v the other day that his friend, Mr.
Roosevelt, made a mistake In oppos-
. Ing Cutting and Parmer-Laborlte
4 Senator Shlpstead. Norrls got wind
' of what la afoot and l trying to get
the president to atop it.
Cutting's Democratic opponent.
Chavei, really believes he can make
out a case In two counties. Also, he
will make some charges about hiring
automobile workers on election day
In certain sections.
When an election Is aa cloae as that
one. it la a simple matter for the
preponderantly heavy Democratic
enate majority to resolve all doubts
In favor of the Democrat. That was
demonstrated only a few years ago In
the Brookhart case.
All the Democrats will have to do
la to find a legal pretext for cancel
ing a few thousand Cutting votet.
Any four-cylinder lawyer can arrange
It without dlfflriiltv.
Notes
The liteat la that the.V. P. (you
may recall his name as Garner) Is
rot going to Warm Springs but will
come direct to Washington around
December 10. It lcfa, as If he ta

Holland, a former resident of Astoria.

have been the "torch," in the burn
ing of the High barn on the Balfour
Guthrie tract, near Ashland, on the

Robert High was expected to be re

The destroyed barn was insured for
113,000 and at the time of the fire
was filled with 90 tons of hay, be
longing to another. The barn was
held to be one of the finest struc
tures of its kind in the state. Thc

treaty of 1922, which establishes her

they Join with Japan in denouncing
It before December 31. Such de
