Taft and Roosevelt Now Agree!
COLUMN-LEFT in this morning' Oregonian it very in
teresting. "Liberals must carry on, declares Chief Executive," is the
2-col. headline; and under it is a picture of Senator-Elect Robert
Taft of Ohio presenting a T. R. bicuspid grin to the bland and
unctious Senator Vandenberg of Michigan, declaring as he does
so : "The Republicans will have to nominate a Liberal to win."
There you have it ladies and gentlemen I
The leader of the Democratic party, and a probable leader
of the Republican party two years hence, agreeing as to the
course this country should pursue in the immediate future, a
liberal course.
OF course one might ask here for a definition of "a liberal
course," but we shall pass that up for the present, to
observe that after much noise and fury, the two major parties
are together, as far as major objectives are concerned.
Taft and Roosevelt will, of course, differ as to the proper
route to take to reach the promised land, but they will not
differ as to the general character of the goal.
The Old Guard conservatives, with their fears and alarms,
their Liberty Leagues and Union Club manifestos, may still
be all dressed up, but they certainly have no place to go. And
the hide-bound, copper-riveted reactionaries in the Democratic
fold are no better off, or only slightly so.
So whatt
JUST this, a point which incidentally, has been frequently
stressed in this department, since President Roosevelt's
inauguration.
Thanks to Roosevelt's vision, courage and aggressiveness,
the country has advanced at least a generation, socially and
politically speaking, in half a dozen years.
In spme directions F. D. R. tried to go too fast and too far,
and on at least two fronts was decisively beaten; but barring
these interruptions his progress was consistently forward, and
will so continue until the close of his term.
A ND this is the interesting
" Principles and policies that five or six years ago, so
horrified some of the pillars of the Republican party that they
took up their permanent residence in Bermuda, and others less
stable emotionally jumped out of ten-story windows; are now
taken for granted and accepted as desirable, not only by New
Dealers, but by the leadership of the Grand Old Party, the
opposition, if you please,, the Tafts, the Bartons, the Simpsons
and their kind.
Our prediction is the Republican party, under such leader
ship, has more than an even chance of returning to power in
1940. But what a different party than it was in 1932, a party
renovated, rejuvenated and rehabilitated, and the leader of
the Democratic party the opposition the Honorable Franklin
Delano Roosevelt, can take entire credit for the reformation.
Thus after much wandering, much bickering and caterwaul
ing, the two major parties halt for breath at the same station,
one from going too fast, the other from going too slow, and
the net gain for the country, is a new world for an old one!
Its Up to the C . O.
QO the C. I. 0. is going to fight the anti-picknting law just
passed in Oregon, both in the courts and the congress at
Washington.
Well if the law is unconstitutional, as John L. Lewis claims,
let the fact be established legally and the measure automatically
becomes null and void. No one wishes to wasle time over
something that is unconstitutional.
But if it isn't, then the C. I.

Oregon.
For this bill was passed by
a 50,000 majority, and public opinion is solidly and aggressively
behind it.
flOWKVER, it is not true, as the C. I. 0. agitators claim,
that the people were deluded regarding the character of
the measure, or that the victory represented an effort to destroy
union labor, in this state.

regretted it for 13 years. Just be

and this Intelligence so disturbed the
'cellist that he gave a very shoddy

Indeed, hs was so chsgTlned that
he rushed from the concert hall
without going out front to meet the

Recently they met in New York
and Emanuel asked Toscanlnl "Do

"No." replied Toscanlnt, "T have
heard you on the air and admired

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
When Bshy Takea To Drink
Our baby, aged lfi months, has no
um for water, except as a bath. In
which he delights, since we - have
given him orange Juice In large
quantities. Is his distaste for water
due to our practice of boiling all
th water we offer him to drink?
(MiM B. E. C.)
Answer If the water Is suitable
for adults to drink It Is suitable for
the baby, sgreeably cold. It the baby
needs more water than ha gets In
fruit Juice and other liquids he will
ask for It and drink It.

Another crash! Or rather another

it ts claimed, are widely read. One
can believe it. But why are they?
Perhaps because the variety of
opinions contained In them. Differ
ences of opinion Is loved and feared.
That makes them Interesting. They
are always forerunners of social ad

them. They are static, not dynamic
because of that fact. A society thst

tbe Job of "economics minister as
well as bis own, for a considerable
period.
The meeting of a few days ago was
by no means an Isolated phenome
non. Roughly the same group of men
has been called In by Morgenthau on
several previous occasions notably
in ths spring of 1937, when the
ebullient Henderson warned of Im
pending trouble from price fixing.
and again In the fall of the ssme
year, when Msrgenthau wanted the
economists views on the crescent de
pression. Moreover, Morgenthau re
peatedly entertains outside experts
of all kinds, from the highly con
eervstlve Col. Leonard P. Ayres to
men whose thinking Is pretty close
to the new dealers'. He has meetings
of business men, like Russell Lef-
flngwell, the Morgan partners who
approved the treasury gold policy.
And. besides the economists, he often
asks the new deal's high adminis
trative officers to discuss their prob
lems with him.
Indeed, it's not too much to say
that Morgenthau has transformed
general consultation Into a special
technique of government. The man
who benefits, besides Morgenthau
himself, is tbe president, to whom
Morgenthau makes a careful report
once a week.
Besides the light It casts on Mor
genthau's real position, the econo
mists' talkfest la Interesting for still
another reason. Last spring, the sd
mlnlstratton was divided, openly and
rather angrily, Into several hostile
camps. Now there are Indications,
among them the talkfest, that sev
eral of the factions are drawing to
gether. It's too much to expect the
fiscal agencies to forget their In
tramural quarrels, or Benjamin N.

And. on the other, men like Henry
Morgenthsu are reconciling them
selves to certain aspects of new deal

That's where I've been for
six weeks past!
I sold my wife's classy '38
Chevrolet coupe,
Due to customer demand,
couldn't replace till today.
Now she has a new black

Don't imagine she'll be home
much of the time.
She's just like most of the

They ALL are mighty proud
of their new Chevrolet! I
