No. 71. 9 (ft rl C1 TPS? 1EF By PAUL MAIXON Copyright. 1935, by Paul Mallon. WASHINGTON. June 13 The .team of enthusiasm seems to be running ft bit lower than the country real ise Inside the new deal boiler. The old pressure e & 1 for high gauge action Is not what It once was. Anyone who has called on any dozen of the stokers In the last few days can see the situation. It Is not en tirely the su preme court de cision which Is causing the fires I'AUI. MALLON to run low, al- though that undoubtedly played part. Nor Is It the enthusiastic ac tivity of the Republican bucket bri gade, although that also has had a dampening Influence. To get the right slant on what Is happening, you have to go back a bit. President Roosevelt started re forming his new deal from within about six months ago. He moderated NRA, got Johnson out; reformed the AAA, got Tugwell out; altered poll etes and personnel gradually and mildly. In preparation for a new new deal. Now, auddenly. a rush of eco nomic as well as legal, political and personal developments appears to have taken his reformation en tirely out of hla hands. Tou can see It best in the AAA. There the Ions of foreign cotton mar kets has thrown the AAA program out of gear. It will have to be re organized from this standpoint a well as from the legal standpoint. At the headquarters of the new works program, you will find Prank Walker is 111 as a result of over i work. He has bwn unable to get the ' thing going. At federal housing, cliques are contesting with each other about how to proceed, while the administrator Is serving only temporarily. At the securities and exchange commission, you will get defensive arguments about the con stitutionality of their phase. And at the export-import banking house ot George Peek, where no business is being done, you will meet with de nials that Mr. Peek's activities now are entirely useless. To gtv ynn K rough and Inade quate idea of the situation at NRA: A number of young men In the com pliance division of NRA were sitting around amusing themselves the other day by firing paper wads at a win dow across the street. The occupant of the residence became annoyed, called the division on the telephone, aald she wanted to make a com plaint. NRA'a young men responded: "Sorry madamc, the NRA Isn't taking any more complaints." More Important phases of the same spirit are evident among the mem bers of the strong liberal element of new dealers. They came here originally full of eagerness for re form, willing to work long hours, at ordinary wages, for their various causes. Now you will hear a number of them wondering whether it la worth while talking about getting outside Jobs.

"Fortunately, In Oregon we face Im portant steps with strong and experi enced farm organizations assisting, through which the needs and aspira tions of the different branches of the state's agriculture are so successfully expressed . Among those organ iza tlona. of course, one thinks of the Grange, which la the largest farm organization In this state and the oldest one In the nation.
