Louis McHenry Howe
I OWS MeHENRT HOWE,
who died Saturday, after a long, lingering; illnees, upset the
tradition that "no man can be a hero to his valet."
For quarter of a century, he was not only political, but a
spirituat valet for Franklin D. Roosevelt. Politically he was the
president's alter ego. As constant attendant and valiant aide
he saw him through two critical illnesses, typhoid fever and
infantile paralysis. His association with the Roosevelt family
was so close that he was practically speaking adopted as a mem
ber of the family. The Roosevelt children called him "Louie",
and during his last illness, the Rooseveltg did everything for
him in the way of constant solicitude and oving care, that a
family would do for their very own.
But with Louis McHenry Howe, familiarity never bred con
tempt. Nor did it bring disillusion. To the last Franklin D.
Roosevelt was Howe's "white knight," his inspiration and his
hero. A sour, cynical, rather embittered gnome of a man as
far as the world was concerned, when the Roosevelts or the
Pooseevlt issue came into the picture, he was all sweetness and
light, the inhibitions and suppressions of a life time vanished,
he became radiant, vital, keen, interested in only one thing,
what would be best for the man and the family, to whose future
and fortunes he was so passionately devoted.
We have always felt the retirement of Secretary Howe from
all active service over a year ago, was a great loss to President
Roosevelt politically. Shrewd, realistic, with an uncanny sense
of what the rank and file of this country might be thinking and
doing, his daily advice and counsel, during the recent parlous
times, would have been invaluable. He would have supplied
caution, restraint, the balance wheel, which a man of the
president's sanguine and impulsive nature often needs. What
has been true for the year past will be even more true in the
future, with the presidential campaign soon in full swing.
But that was not to be. Strong in mind and will, the fates
provided Louis McHenry Howe, with a physical equipment, that
was woefully inadequate to withstand the strains and stresses
that his aggressive combative spirit placed upon it. The wonder
is not that he died before he reached three score and ten, but
that he ever lived within five years of it. It is scarcely an
exaggeration to say, that for the last several years, the dim
flame of life within him was only kept alive by his indominable
spirit and the one great passion of his soul to be at the side of
his "hero" in his time of need, and see him through to another
victory I
To Much of a Bad Thing
WE sometimes wonder if President Roosevelt's critics aren't
overdoing the thing a bit. We read a number of maga
zines and newspapers, in our regular line of work, and confess
we are getting a trifle FED-UP by the constant stream of fault
finding and abuse that a majority of them are passing out to
their readers.
After all no president of this country, regardless of his
shortcomings could be quite so COMPLETELY "no good" as
most of Franklin Roosevelt' 's more prominent critics maintain.
Day after day, not a word of commendation much less praise
just iteration and reiteration, Issue after issue, he is all wrong
here, he is all wrong there, he Is all wrong all the time I
yiTAT the president has made mistakes, that there are flaws
in his New Deal, no fair minded person will deny. But that
he is as bad, or HALF as bad, as the anti-Roosevelt press
tries to make out, just can't be true, and outside of the radical,
fire eating partisans, we don't believe any of the people believe
it is true.
ltORE than that. There is no doubt in our mind that this
sort of thing is defeating its own purpose. Instead of
increasing opposition to the president it is arousing sympathy
for him. It also tends to weaken the foroe of the entire anti
Roosevelt propaganda just as all gross exaggeration and palp
able excesses do. After a while when it becomes so apparent
that all that is said CAN'T be true, the natural disposition is
to conclude that nothing that is said IS true.
That this wholesale and indiscriminating lambasting of the
president is doing more to help than injure his political chances,
is suggested in a new note of sympathy that has slipped into
the columns of some of the more fair-minded political com
mentators. Take Raymond Clapper, for example. He has been far from
a Roosevelt protagonist during the past few months, but in his
article released today we note he devotes all his space, to de
fense of the president's repent, address and derision for the
efforts of the anti-F. D. R. claquers to pulverize it with ridicule
and throw it in the ash can. The following extract will show
what we mean :
From ths hostlls newspaper comment upon President Rooee
volt's Baltimore speech. It appears there Is something deplorable
In the spectacle of ths president of the United States giving
voice to the high Ideals of social Justice which he thinks should ,
guide the policies ci this country.
His address, frankly an Inspirational appeal to youth. Is re
ceived with much ths aame cynical sneering reaction that
burled the Idealism of Wood row Wilson under a deluge of post
wax disillusionment snd ushered In Its Pandora's box, loaded
with the Ohio gang.
All we need to do, It la said. Is to stop this nighty experi
mentation and get bark to 1919. All right, get bark to I9M,
arid what do you havet It the Brookings Institution testify.
Ta-enty-one per cent, ot our families living on leas than $1000
a year. per ient. living below eiSOO and 11 per cant, below
$3SO0. which la regarded as the deadline below whloh a family
cannot live decently, And In addition a headache Just around
the corner. That la tha promised land to which ths practical
opponents of Roosevelt would lead us.
No. th "practical men" who torm the backbone of the
Roosevelt opposition, and who set the pitch for most of tha
press comment, have no patience with auoh visionary trash
and fine phrases as were found In the Baltimore speech. Why
waste time on Ideals? They must get direct to the point.
And how do they get to the point? it Just happens that
disclosures of the Blsck senate committee In the last few days
have shown how tha moat vocal of the anti-Roosevelt forces
get to the point. Tha point Is to beat Roosevelt by any means
thst turn urj even ths lowest.
Dig out those facts and you will find that John J. Raakob
and Pierre S. du Pont put up $10,000 bela-een them to finance
the recent southern graasroota convention of "Jeffeieonlan
Democrats" for the purpose of building up the demagogue Tal
mad re aa an opponent to Roosevelt, The money was solicited
by one of the men who distributed through the south posters
showing Mrs Roosevelt photographed with nfarroee.
The oreanlnttlon which promoted the back-firing TalmaJe
meeting collected manna Ojm a long list of business aieru
tlves. utility officials, men like Alfred P. Sloan. Lammont du

To me, a wart on my own akin

I never learned the proper manage

the casual passerby It was extra

eess In dealing with eu.-ta cosmetic
blemishes ss moles snd vsrts report
the most satisfactory reult.a from the
use of trichloracetic acid (a caustic
far too dangerous for the layman to
trifle with) followed after a minute
or two by electro-desiccation (dia
thermy) the esoharotlc action of
the trichloracetic acid having a suf
ficient anesthetic effect to make the
whole treatment tolerable without
any other local anesthetic.
For removing a wart along the
edge of the eyelid, where the esoharo
tlc would be unsafe, the favored
method is to Inject under ths skin

Comment
the
on
Day s News
By FRANK JENKINS.
WITHOUT opposition, ths bouse
of representstlves passes a blU
authorizing a 440.000,000 national
highway program for the years 1938
and 1939. The bill now goes to the
senate.
What the senate will do with it
remains to be seen, but neither the
house nor the sensts has been turn
ing down msny bills involving the
spending of government money.
ABOUT ths most fruitless enter
prise anyone can engage In Is
crying over milk that has already
been spilled, but It is hard to refrain
from shedding a few hot tears over
the billions of government money
that have been frittered away In
useless "projects" Instead of being
invested In highway development.
The excuse for these "projects" has
been that they provided employ
ment, and In a way that Is true
slthough the smployment provided
by lsrgs numbers of them has been
"made" work; that Is, work done
solely for the purpose of giving some
body a Job.
Highway construction on a vast
scale would have provided an equal
amount of employment, and In re
turn for the money spent (which
must ultimately be repaid out of
taxes) we would hsve been getting
something thst was worth what it
coat.
FROM the Carqulnez bridge to the
Oakland ferry la a magnificent
highway three lanes wide all the
way and four lanes psrt of the
way. From downtown San Francisco
to San Jose, on the other side of
the bay, Is a similar highway, two
of them, as a matter. of fact, for a
considerable psrt of the distance.
These highways, with their three
and four traffic lanes, are an abid
ing Joy to ALL who travel them.
They n wide and roomy, carrying
an sn-.krJng traffic with astonishing
ease.
The billions of government money
that have been frittered away In
plaything projects would have criss
crossed the United States with high,
ways like these, and at the same
time would have provided honest,
self-respecting employment for mil
lions of people.
Their benefits would have been
PERMANENT. t
THIS writer, who in many ways Is
old-fsshloned, doesn't believe In
government spending that Is Im
mensely and staggeringly beyond
government Income, resulting In
piling up a debt whose interest bur
den alone is stupendous; not to
mention the burden of repayment.
But U the polltlcisns whom we
elect to run our government for us
Insist upon spending vastly more
than the government takes In. they
might st least try to get s dollar's
worth of penhsnent benefit In re
turn for each dollar they spend.
Building highways, which serve sll
the people and whose construction Is
a legitimate enterprise of govern
ment, Is sbout ss good a wsy to do
thst as can be found.

To the Editor:
I have been much Interested In
the Townsend plan, which would
pension all American citizens over
60 yesrs of age. who could qualify.
not to exceed $300 per month.
One thing about the plan that ap
pears most importsnt and the leset
discussed Is the accumulating ia
xifflclent funds to pay the smount
of money the Townsendltes are de
manding.
A psrt of the revised McQroarty
bill states thst the money received
from the transaction tax after ihls
bill goes Into effect shall be deposit,
ed by the secretsry of the tresaury
In this U. S. citizens retirement en
nulty fund snd shsll be disbursed
only for the peyment of ths sums
expressly authorized by this act to
be paid therefrom and for no other
purpose.
Taking ths figures which hs-e
been used most, there would be sp
proxlmstely 7 600.000 persons who
could quailfy for a pension snd if
each one received $300 per month
which the Townsendltes are demand
ing I but which the revised McOro
srty bill does not promise) there
trould he collected from the people
of the United Btetes In transaction
taxes $1,900,000,000 per month, and
referring to paragraph "F" this
amount would be collected each
month for four months and at the
beginning of the fifth month the
sum collected on the first month or
frsotton thereof shall be paid, after
the expense of administration has
been psld, pro rata to qualified an
nuttants. This would mean that In four
months M P00.eoo.00t will ave hn
collected before any money woud be
paid out and each month after, the

(Continued from Page One )
Record (without reading) April 9 by
the senate Democratic floor leader.
Mr. Logan's appeal "to reason Is
almost entirely the facs that the New
Deal dropped $337,000,000 of federal
donations Into Kentucky.
He gives names and amounts of
each Item in millions, Including AAA
130.000.000. CCC S.23.O&O.00O, direct re
lief $36,000,000. CWA $9,000,000. PWA
$30,000,000, etc., etc.
The New Dealers have tired of the
Van Nuys bill proposing heavy penal
ties for business men who influence
the vote of their employes. It is being
quietly strangled In the house Judic
iary committee because It Is a little
too raw. What made them realize It
was a counter proposal to prevent
federal officials from doing the same
thing.
The long look you may have noticed
on Senator Wheeler's face is due to
the fact that he could not get any
thing but an upper tier seat for the
opening game, and, when seated, he
saw through a spy glass that his sec
retary was sitting In a front box near
the president.
The old Japanese scare Is being
used regulsrly by ths Filipinos in
their current campaign to repeal eco
nomic barriers here. Despite the aus
picious start of the new Philippine
commonwealth and praise of the U. S.
for treeing the Islands, the possibility
of strslned relstlons n.Jvween Wash
ington and Manila is 0'-,te strong.
The veterans' lobby, .'lushed by vic
tory in bonus legislation, has Just
about given up hope for the universal
draft (passed by the senate, now In
the house). A recent canvass of the
legislative situation convinced an
American Legion committee that It
would not get through this session.
You will see plenty of Mr. Roose
velt's face In the news reels from now
on. Eight sepsrste presidential ap-
