and the Gravy Hounds."
Master
Mr. Morgenthau has been cutting
down on gravy for the bond dealing
hounds, month by month, giving
them smaller and smai;r opportuni
ties for a subsistence profit. In fact,
some of the hounds have been bark
ing among themselves that Mr. Mor
genthau was not only an economizer,
but a chlseler.
They became convinced of It '
he started making them bid for
bare bones under the auction, bid
ding system of bond flotation. They
decided to teach the economising
roaster a lesson by going on a hunger
strike when he put the hundred
millions before them at the time
they were In a period of liquidation
with the banks. The strained period
offered them a subtle opportunity to
stress their feelings
Now no politician will undertake
to k' j a good word for bond deal

Th nmnf of this story lies In one
feature bv which the successiui

He offrred the new notca at par.
The disgruntled beagles Immediately

You may be reasons..' certain

HYDE PARK. N. Y., Sept. 6 (AP) President Roosevelt today declar
ed the new deal s "baste program" had reached "substantial completion"
and a "breathing spell" for Industry "Is here very decidedly so." He as
serted further "that at this moment
stantlat and widespread recovery."
The president gave his views in a
letter to Boy W. Howard, publisher
of the Scrlpps-Howard newspapers,
who reported fears of business men
and asserted, "there Is need to undo
the damage that has been done by
misrepresentations of the new deal."
In perhaps his most complete ex
position of his administration and his
Ideas for the future, the president
said he claimed no "magician's wand."
but "wo do claim that we hr-e help
ed to restore that public confidence
which now offers so substantial a
foundation for our recovery."
Confidence Helurnlng
"I take it." he wrote, "that we are
all not merely seeking but getting
the recovery of confidence, not mere
ly the confidence of a Jiall group,
but that basic confidence on the part
of the mass of our population, in the
soundness of our economic life and
In the honesty and Justice of the
purposes of Its economic mles and
methods."
Howard discarded hostility from
"flnanc'tfl racketeers, public exploit
ers, and the sinister forces spawned
by special privileges," but asserted
that many business men of "patriot
Ism and sense of public service" be
lieved the wealth tax bill "revenge
on business" and expected a "recess
from further experimentation until
the country can recover Its losses."
