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 !

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

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. So I
warn you don't deceive yourself that
any real Illness Is an "attack of In
digestion." QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.

necessary for cleanliness, unless one
gets very, very grimy at work or

"Every Man a King?"
To the Editor:
Huey Long's talk over the NBC
Wednesday night was certainly a
humdinger. However, I did not like
his idea "every man a king," con
sidering what they usually do to
kings.
He should have said every man a
"herring." and a red one.
