That waa a good crarfc. I Imagine Mm llllle olcUadv had read her hla lorv undcrslandingly. vinra Uian a centurT ago. Lord Macauley, the great English hla torlan, stateaman, essayist and pol itical philoaoplier, wrote to a friend In America In aomewnav inia v-m; "Your American system of gov ernment l U greatest titatltutlon In the po'Klcal history oi manaina.

When that hap pens, your American ayatem will jail" (Those aren't Macaulay'a exact worda. but they convey the glut of what he aald In hla letter to hla American friend.) Well, that la about what had hap pened lo Un. Clever demagoga had learned how to perpetuate themaelvea In power. One of them, back In the brglnnlnga of the new ayatem. put It this way: "We can tax and tax and apend and apend and epend and KI.ECT AND ELECT AND ELECT.'' The "gentle rain of gov ernmrnt checks'! that waa relied uiKin to keep the people happy and drugged became an eatabllahed pari of the new ayatem. It la aald mi good authority that 24 million Americana now receive govern ment check. Aa each election came around, the people were reminded that If they VOTED OUT THE PARTY IN POWER this praenl "rain" wot government checka would dry V.9. the farmera were told thai If Vlief voted Republican their aubsl ! ."ch would be cut off and they fcould be left out on Ue well-known Imb.

In general, people Were taught to believe that ALL I tlOOD THINOa FLOW FROM BIO I GOVERNMENT, centralized I n Washington. It began to look aa If what Lord Macaulay had predicted more limn a century ago had come to pan. We had come to call thla ayatem "Trunmnlsm." Truman, of course, Wasn't the originator of It. He waa lust the latest practitioner. He cer talnly followed Ha baalo principles In hla 1092 whistle-stop campaign. ' Rut ! The unexpected happened!

The loan offers may be a good answer. Confused report out of Canada. where alslke la grown to some ex tent, have caused confusion on the market throughout the country. Buyers and agents are reporting tremendous crops north of the In ternational border, doubling last year'g Canadian production. UHDA REPORT However, U8DA reports show the Canadian crop to be only about average about 1.2M.00O (M) pounds. This la a little larger than last year'a poor crop up there, the official reports Indicate. Rumors that the U.S. hss Import ed aa - much as 4,000,000 (Ml pounds alresdy from Canada have not been founded, either.

The new Fresiaeiit-eiect came to Ausiisla for a rest, aettling into a secluded white cottage about 300 yards trom the first tee of the National Oolf Club-course.

Arson Feared In Chiloquin - CHTLOQUIN The sixth and seventh fires in 12 days rated two vacant buildings in widely sep arated locations here late last night and from all appearances arson seemed a definite possibility to local citizens.

Consequently, it appeared that the white cottage on Uie golf course may soon see numerous persons coming and going. The general's intention seems to be to ask his confidantes to go to Wash ington for conferences "in several departments of the federal govern ment."

The men he selects for those talks may very well be the ones he has In mind for Cabinet assign ments in Ihe aame departments, ' 80 far.- In his conversations, he has not pointed toward1 anyone.
