All ncnta of repahiloa- Uon of apeolal dlapatohae herein are olaa reaer-ed The First Year THE first year of the Roosevelt administration is now . I history. It has been a remarkable twelve months, a period filled with unprecedented action of the federal government that kept all eyes turned on Washington. It is not possible as yet to place a final estimate on all of the .measures taken by the government to bring the nation out of the depression. It may be years before the true value of all of these steps can be determined. It has been somewhat, of a gamble, and the ultimate result is yet to be known. But the immediate effect has been highly favorable. The morale of the people has improved enormously since that dark day in March, 19S3, when Mr. Roosevelt took the oath of office. There has been a definite recovery program a comprehensive scheme designed to rescue the poor from destitution, to prevent bank failures, to pro mote private employment through the resuscitation of industry and business, to provide emergency public em ployment, to improve the welfare of agriculture, to work out the difficult problem of the debtor. The knowledge . that somebody at the top had an idea right or wrong for tackling these acute phases of the depression probably had as much as anything to do with the spiritual revival of the people. And, as we approach spring, there are definite indi cations that recovery is truly well on its way. Here in Klamath Falls, there are evidences of revived activity in industry and business. The government recovery pro gram has reached into this community in many ways with resultant benefits. The first year has seen congress and the people gener ally, regardless of party, going as far as their convictions would permit them in support of the government's efforts. There has been little partisan criticism for the sake of criticism alone. For the first year, at least, Mr. Roosevelt has provided strong leadership, and he has received strong support. Both he and the people may well be appre ciative.' - - '-.

' 8 illlBllH WASHINGTON New Behind tho Newa The Irulde Story From Tho Citiitnl e e Bjf PAUL MALLON Copyright, 1934. by Paul Mallon WASHINGTON, March 6. The orthodox economist) have taken to the bush again. The current foreign trade program was too much for them. When It was announced, they folded up and silently stole away. They do not care to combat the administration. But they will drag you behind a bush and tell you the Idea is probably tho last word In amateur economies. Their view . Is Interesting, If Bui convincing. a o o WORKINGS They say we cannot sell any appreciable amount of goods abroad, especially agricultural goods. Our prices are generally higher than world prices. No demand exists. The foreigners have no money to pay for any- lUIUg. The only way we can sell any' tnmg at an abroad Is to take away the market now held by some other country. To do that we must otter something In re turn. The proposal la that we offer specific reductions In tar- w, so a foreign nation can send i nor gooas in return. we cannot permit chean In. portations of Industrial because that would hurt our ln- austry and increase unemploy ment, We cannot Import agri cultural products, because we nave too much of them now. In fact, we cannot fmrtnrt nv. thing, except roods not now nrn. duced by us. That limits the field to trivialities. e e a SOFT-PEDAL These skeptics believe It l significant that the two coun tries we are proceeding to pro mote trade with first are Rus sia and Cuba. Neither ot them could buy a dime's worth of our surplus agricultural products. Russia has too much of her own farm goods now and 'Cuba does not use any. The only way these two coun tries can buy even what they need here Is by having our gov ernment finance their credit No private banker would take the risk involved In advancing credit to them at this time. What we will take from them Is not ap parent; probably only their L O. U.'a. Mr. Roosevelt knowa all this. They are good reasons for be lieving that the Wallace-Peok-Tngwell foreign trade promotion plan will be administered on a much smaller scale than the pub lic announcements now indicate. They will get out ot it what they can, but they do not really expect as much as they say they do. 0.0 o SPAT The army air corps would like to drop a few bombs on the gen eral staff. The first one would be aimed at Chief of Start MacArtnur. The second, at War Secretary Dern. . However, Instead of doing that now, the air corps boys are working with certain congress men on tne inside to tnwart tne plans ot the big medal men. If these aub-rosa maneuvers tall, the bombs may come later. What put the air corps up In the air was the fact that Secre tary Dern has sided with Gen eral MacArtnur In trying to dis suade congress from giving the air corps 3,000 to 4,000 addi tional planes and revising the air promotion system. The gen eral and the secretary contend the planes are not essential to national defense and the new pro motion system would give too much advantage to air corps of ficers. The aviators Insist General MacArtnur .is an old line officer who Is holding back the devel opment of aviation defense. They say he wrote or at least inspired - the statement Secretary Dern With Military "Honors SIDE GLANCES t,c,cw lilt ' mm 1 1 miA fef H I 'Oh, Mr. Birch, why can't you the bouse you' made on the subject before a house committee. e e a PRKSSVRE The air boys have sec rot helper iu Chairman McSwaln ot the house military affairs com mittee. He has long-been against the MacArtnur system ot con servative air defense. He Is pressing his Investigation ot the procurement activities ot the war department until It hurts. There are reasons for believing Dern and MacArthur will have a hard time getting anything out of Me- Swaln's committee, unless they give the air corps what it wants. If the thing goes on, they win probably have to call out the marines. a a a NAMES It was more than a coincident that the cotton productlt- con trol bill Is known as the Bank-head-Bankhead (CO) bill. The agriculture department crew had a long inner deoaio with Senator Bankbead, original author ot the .measure. Tbey wanted control by use ot the tax ins power. He wanted control by licensing. They could not un derstand bis position - until they discovered that It the taxing sys tem was used, the measure would become a tax bill and therefore would have to originate in the house. That would have taken the legislation out ot Senator Bankhead'a hands. Then arose the oueatlon. what should be done? After deep thought, one of the agriculture department manipula tors had a brilliant laea. ni rarnllacted that Senator Bank head's brother Is a member of the bouse. The brother could introduce the tax provision there and the bill would still bear the Bankhead name. In fact It would bear It twice. So Representative Bankhead introduced Senator Bankhead's bill In the bouse with the taxing Drorlslon. and everyone la satis fied. Which proves they are begin ning to learn politics in the agri culture' department o e a SQUASH An NBA official found him self faclne- a date to play aquasb and remembered that be needed a aauaah racquet. He reached for the phone and called a well- known sporting goods store. What time do you close?" he asked. "Five-thirty," came the reply. He looked at his watch It was 5:25. "Can't you stay open for a few minutes? I'll be right over." "On, no," repiiea be serious? I think re looking for." I have lust the clork, "We can't stay open after 6:30." "Why not?" asked the official, getting a bit Irri tated. "Th NRA won't let us!" said tho clerk, banging down tho receiver.
