The THE next fix months .promise to be one of the most critical periods in American history. For during this half-year the economic fate of this country will in all likelihood be FINALLY settled. Either on July 4th next, we the people, will celebrate a new Independence Day independence from suffering and want, from fear and doubt or we will be forced to accept a material catastrophe, so extensive and destructive in character, that it may well mark the end of democratic government in this country. . During the next six months it is going to be "make or break." The economic disease that first attacked this country, five years ago, will in this brief period reach its crisis. Either the fever is going to break, finally and completely, giving way to a normal temperature and a normal period of recuperation; or it is going to soar higher, and the economic! system we have accepted and lived under, thpse 155 years, is going to break beneath the strain. THERE is, as we see it, no alternative. The time has passed when we can just muddle along, or continue on a dead center.- We must, as a people either get out of the depression woods entirely, or become hopelessly lost in tbenu As far as we are concerned result will be. We have too much confidence in the wisdom and intelligent leadership of President Roosevelt, too strong a faith in the good sense and resourcefulness of the American people, to believe the second alternative "make or break" we will put place all our chips "on the nose" Not that it is going to be an unthinking optimism is all we need. Far from it. Hard work and the strongest possible unity of effort will be demanded, every 24 hours during this portentious period. But that we feel certain, is what the country will HAVE. THE real keystone of our faith lies in President Roosevelt, t.hn conviction that, lie ia RIGHT We don't mean 100 right he can't make or hasn't made mistakes. We DO mean that in the essentials he has, in our judgment, the right ideas about what is wrong with this country, what is right, and what must be done, to save it from disaster. President Roosevelt is fighting, as we see it, even more clearly than did former President Wilson, to PRESERVE THE PEMOCRATIO FORM OF GOVERNMENT. That really is the essence of his program. With him, he is fighting to prevent munism on the other, and demonstrate that a free Democracy, is the best form of government, yet devised by man. IN order to win this fight he believes we must have a. contented people, a people assured at lesst of the creature comforts. For if this is not done then ultimately he sees our meeting the fate that Russia suffered, revolution aud a dictatorship of the proletariat. This explains his billions spent on the greatest relief program ever launched in the world's history. He also believes that unless democratic government can so control capitalism, so correct its obvious abuses, incident to inordinate greed and exploitation, that wealth may be more fairly distributed for the benefit of all, instead of concentrated in the hands of a few; there is equal danger of Fascism. For such a plutocracy would breed such discontent and internal strife, that Fascism would be the only hope of preventing the forceful overthrow of such a system. This explains his reform program, directed toward such in stitutions as the New Tork stock exchange, and the Instill type of holding company utilities, his determination to make this country a better place in which Meanwhile as clearly shown in his recent message' to con gress, President Roosevelt believes in the capitalistic svstem. believes in the profit system, believes in private business, and favors the government keeping out of direct competition with private business, except where some sudden emergency demands it and then only as long as the emergency continues. 'TWERE briefly are the Roosevelt political and, economic priit- ciples, as we understand them; and if our understanding is correct, then they are certainly the principles in which this paper believes. And because we believe iu them and because we believe that adherence to them will not only win the battle against economic and political collapse, but will render that victory a permanent rather than a temporary one, that we feel so confident, the next fateful six months will not mark the end of democratic institutions in this country, but their extension and betterment; NOT the sunset of civilization, but the dawning of a new dnv and a belter one ! 13 PORT SLANTS -hi Pan- A quiofc glance over I ha 10 leading names In the 1034 National league batting averages reveals a rather startling lack of veteran; thefe names that we have become accus tomed to seeing at tha top year after year. following the top three.

His former team-mate, with the Phillies. Virgil Davis, amassed a neat average of 349 when playing In Philadelphia but his bat lost Its po tency when he changed to the Card inals' uniform. In fart, his weak hit ting gave the youthful Bill Delancey his chance behind the plate. De lancey stuck In that post when he hit 31fl and helped the Cardinal! beat the Timers In the fall classic. Collins and Medwick were the only Cardinals with hlcher batting aer ages for the season than dtd this young backstop. Jim Collins not only led the Car dinals In batting but also paced the National league In the slutting aver ages, for the home run honors with 35 and collected a total of bases for his hits.

INSIDE INFORMATION Before we go to the mate today, folks, I beg leave to reiterate a fun damental fact, to wit, that there U no such malady or ailment as "Indigestion." Unless we sea "indigestion" eye to eye there la no uae talking, for we do not speak the same language. I suppose some of you would ut ter the same Im patient . snort It I were to assert that there la no euch. thing aa red blood, or even red blood corpuscles. But that la pre cisely true. too. Put a drop of the re4" blood under a microscope and. have a little closer look at It, and you'll find it Isn't red, nor are the "red" corpusclea red. The fluid Is a pale straw color and trie blood cells are a rather dull salmon pink. It la only a kind of Illusion that makes this pale watery fluid appear scarlet red when regarded In the ordinary way; the aggregate of some billions of these salmon In each ounce of the fluid makes the fluid look red. What got me down when I had appendicitis was the suggestion ot retributive Justice which worried me for the first hour or two of the at tack. What a. tragic fate, to be seized like this with acute Indigestion after all I have done to discourage that notion. But there I was groaning with It, an hour or two after I had gorged a lot of cocoanut, which had never before given me any trouble. Nor had anything else 'disagreed" with me, fcr that matter. I tell you I was a pretty sick man for an hour. Then we had In a real doctor and It didn't take him long to de cide on operation. As soon aa I learned It was appendicitis I felt quite happy about It. What a com fort It Is to know where you are at I Yet It la aad to think of all the poor misguided ginks who fiddle around with "chronic Indigestion" j for months or even years until some ' grave emergency calls a halt tp the nonsense and reveals the true na ture of the trouble. Scores of ailments masquerade under the name of chronic dyspep sia, nervous dyspepsia or indiges tion of one kind or another. Some very grave illnesses are mistreated under the plausible fancy that they are "acute Indigestion." Indeed, the NEW YORK DAY BY DAY By O, O. Mclntyre NEW YORK. Jan.

Even If you are as ignorant or physiology aa the ordinary educated layman, attll your common sense should raise in your mind this question: How come so many sinners abuse their digestive organs with Impunity, and yet a few unfortu natea who carefully avoid dietary ex cesses nevertheless suffer aeute 'at- tacka" of "Indigestion?" Of course the only answer la that there Is no such Illness as "acute Indigestion." If for any reason digestion is sud denly halted or greatly retarded, one may experience vague discomfort. Or if the peristaltic process is reversed one may experience waterbrash. nau sea or even vomiting. If peristalsis is much speeded up . . . but none of these effects of deranged diges tion makes one seriously 111.
