Next Four Years Basbon Discusses President Truman By Roger W. Babson Babson Park, Mass., April 20 (Special Correspondence.) The death of President Roosevelt means more than the loss of a personal friend or even a great president. It means the end of one era and the beginning of a new era. It may mean a 50 return to such American con servatism as prevailed before the election of President Roose velt. Certainly, it means a return to a democratic form of govern ment in contrast to the domina tion of a great personality. War Outlook The war will continue to be prosecuted with utmost intens ity. President Truman will not interfere with the commanding generals and admirals. It is prob able that Secretaries Stimson and Forrestal will continue in the cabinet until peace finally comes. Mr. rtooseveiis aeam, however, does throw greater re sponsibility upon Mr. Churchill, Peace Prospects President Truman is reported to be more open-minded than his predecessor in connection with the peace terms. He has Insisted upon "unconditional surrender for Germany; but to my knowl edge he has not demanded this for Japan. Certainly, the admin istration will not be as friendly, economically, to Russia. It is also probable that the small na tions have lost a good friend in the death of President Roosevelt. Tax Reductions President Truman is noted for his economical traits. Instead of being the only son in a wealthy home, he was born a poor boy. Some of my friends in Washing ton refer to him as a "second Calvin Coolldge", This means that taxes will be reduced sooner than they otherwise would be and that the national debt will be kept down to lower proportions. The country will be less generous with foreign na tions. New Deal Many articles have appeared the past week headed "The New Deal Is DEAD". I do not believe these statements. The common people of all the world arc "on the march". Franklin Roosevelt did not make conditions; but rather, existing conditions made him. It is, however, fair to as sume that the New Deal will go Into the ice-box for a few years, while its ardent friends wlir be In the dog-house. This doubtless means renewed courage to busi nessmen with higher stock prices. Appointments Since President Roosevelt took control of our government, boards and commissions have, to a large extent, taken the place of congressional acts. Some of these such as the war labor board and the securities and exchange commission have tre mendous power. But this power can be controlled 100 by the president through his appoint ments. This means that the pol icy of our government toward labor, management and capital can completely be reversed by the character of the appoint ments which President Truman may make. Milliary Training There will be no radical form of military training; the army's program is out the window. If later some glorified "CCC" is needed to help the employment situation, President Truman may consent to something of the kind. At this point I must admit that there is one real unfortun ate factor in the situation; name ly, that for some time our coun try will be without leadership. Whether President Truman will develop into a strong man, or whether some other man will gradually assume leadership cannot now be forecast. A Lesson To Learn I feel deeply the loss of Frank lin Roosevelt. I knew, him per sonally and during World War I I worked with him Intimate ly. The way he rose from a bed of affliction to become the one man UDon whom the entire world depended is almost un paralleled in history. It sobers us up, however, to ask whether we should again depend upon any one man, however wonder ful he may be Is not this a good time to re-read the Thirty-first Chapter of Isaiah and cease de pending so much upon men, or ships, or armies, or -money? Here are the verses to which I refer: Woe to you children, saith the Lord, That take counsel, but not of me; And that make a league, but not of my Spirit; That set out to go down Into Egypt for help; And trust in chariots, because they are many; And in horsemen, because they are very strong; But unto the Holy One of Israel they look not, Neither seek the Lord! Now the Egyptians are men, and not God; And their horses flesh, end not Spirit; Wherefore both he that helpeth shall stumble. And he that is helped shall fall." Flight o Time Madiord and Jackson Co.

Obye and Con struction Superintendent Don Cameron, who returned last week from investigating a bridge site across the Rogue river at Agness, report that this project will probably be handled by the public roads administration after the war. The proposed bridge will carry the Pistol river road across the Rogue just below the mouth of the Illinois river. Present terminus of the Pistol river road is at Wild Horse Look out station. It will require four teen miles of road construction to take it down into Agness which lies on the north side of the river, When completed this will make access to Agness from the south possible. The South Fork, Coquille forest road ends at Agness. This enters from the north. Agness, once reached only by trail or power boat, will be open to the traveling public from east and west by trail and boat, and from north and south by automobile and from over head by plane, when this bridge and 14 mile stretch of mountain road are completed.
