ellst, hss pnt In most of
this year wandering around
America, talking to city people,
country people, men in bread
lines, hitch-hikers and everyoooy
lse he eonld get hold of, try
ing to find out If there Is any
sign of a revolution in this coun
try. Ee reports now, In The Amer
ican Spectator, that there Is not.
And In explaining why there Is
not he touches on a point that
Boat radical writers miss en
tirely. The situstion In America, he
points out, is entirely different
from the situation overseas. The
people are different, the conn
try la different, the tradition Is
different.
Our great age was a building
age. We built cities, railroads,
factoriee.' machines: we cut
down forests, dammed up rivers,
tunneled through mountains,
dug ore out of the earth. We
did not worry about theories of
economics; there was a lot of
work to do and we went at it
feverishly, content to tackle the
job at band.
And today, says fr. Anderson,
the jobless millions are not talk
ing about the "decline of capi
talism," about socialism or com
munism, Marxism or any other
Ism. Instead, he says, they are
imply saying:
"Give us work! Give ns work!
It Is this dsmned standing still
here, doing nothing, that Is tak
ing the heart out of us."
...
Now there is an abundance of
work to be done. There is, as
Mr. Anderson points out, enough
work left In America to keep
the nation busy for a thousand
years to come. What is needed
now. he asserts. Is "an end to
all the talk of our failure as a
people, and new talk of what Is
to be done."
Both the radical theorist look
ing hopefully for a spread of
Marxism and the die-hard Tory
quaking in his boots lest the
deluge break over him miss ths
point completely.
The chief sufferers from the
depression are not In the mood
to smash things. They aren't
looking ahead to riots, military
rule, a dictatorship of the pro
letariat and so on. They simply
want to go bark to work. The
jobs are there, potentially;
houses to be built, railroad! to
bt rehabilitated, factories to be
overhauled, farms to be put in
order, timber to be cut, canals
to he dug, waterpower to be har
nessed. It ought not to be such an
Impossible Job to get the wheels

Russian Recognition Nears.
ONE would not have to be
exactly daring to predict
that normal diplomatic relations
will be In existence soon be
tween the governments of the
United States and of Soviet Rus
sia. A delicate little hint was given
when President Roosevelt Issued
his famous communication to
the governments of the world
several weeks ago. Among the
world leaders to whom that
communication went was the
Russian executive, who hss never
had any legal existence as far
as our stste department Is con
cerned. On top of that, American dele
gates at the London conference
were observed In close commun
ication with Russian delegates.
And a little later It was an

NEWS BEHIND THE NEWS
The Inside Story From The Capital
a
By PAUL MAI.LON
(Copyright, 133. by Paul Mallon)
Wrinkles
WASHINGTON, July 14 There
In the smiling faces of the highest
A certain large industry served notice privately that it does
not Intend to go Into the industrial control setup. It has been
running nearly 70 per cent of capacity. Large stocks have been
stored up at low production costs.
Apparently It believes tne government does not dare to step
Into its business. But even If the government does, the Industry
can sit back for a few months and
That does not make a very
pretty picture. But it is not as
dark as painted. It la more an
noying than dlstnrbing. J
Busy officials would not have
paid much attention It some dis
appointing statistics had not
reached their eyes about the
same time.
Department atore sales were
shown to be running under last
year's. That is the most accur
ate index on buying power. It
has accentuated what the of
ficials have privately been fear
ing for weeks that buying Is
lagging further and further be
hind production.
That Is why you saw Interior
Secretary Ickes shoved Into the
public works job and told to
spend all he could as fast as
he could. Also why officials
became so exasperated at the
laggards holding out against the
Industrial- control machinery
which is designed primarily to
bolster purchasing power.
Those were only the first two
steps. There will be others.
Confidence
A year ago such troubles might
hare caused apprehensions. Tbey
do not now. They merely point
out the problem.
Officials who must find the
solution may have a few aleen
leas nights. No one else needs
to.
The underlying truth Is that
this administration has about as
much power as there Is on earth
to meet Its problems. It can
take Industrial giants by the ear
and spank them like school
children. It has billions ready
to boost purchasing power.
Also, public psychology has
been so far restored that It Is
no longer timid about difficul
ties arising from time to time.
Therefore, those who have
their feet on the ground are In
terested solely in seeing how the
administration works Itself out.
Deflation
Strong Inside pressure has been
exerted to make President Roose
velt chart a new course. A cer
tain amount of deflation has
been advised. That weapon was
used very effectively for the same
purpose In the post-war period.
It kept prices from going up too
fast. It put a rein on the busi
ness horse.
At leant one Influential narty
man has been trying to sell the
scheme to the administration forifered a few days ago by' a con
use now. Ills long distance tele-1 tractor who strolled Into John-
to the White House. He be
lieves It would be an effective
lllt xntn.l ,lat-l.l tnl.
The thing Is, It is too danger
ous. It may be displayed as a
weapon but not seriously employ
ed. Other more effective means
of accomplishing the same re
sults will be sought first.
Dutch
People are trying to spread
the word around that No. 1
brain trustee. Prof. Moley. Is
coming home from London a
beaten man. They point to the
current ascendancy of State Sec
retary Hull.
The trouble Is the hands-
across-the-sea man of thla ad
ministration. He Is the broth
erly love boy.
The heavier duties devolve on
which American exporters will
be able to sell between fO.OOQ
and 110,000 bales 'of cotton to
Russia.
One Is hardly being rash In
anticipating that formal recog
nition will logically follow these
steps before very long.

sell the goods it has piled up.
the hard-boiled nationalist. Dr.
Moley.
e
When President Roosevelt
wanted to push his strong nation
alism program at London he sent
Dr. Moley. Now that the pur
pose has been accomplished. Mr.
nun nas been left there to salve
the wounds.
The point Is that each man
has his particular job In the In
side picture. Each serves his
purpose. Their duties rarely
conflict. When they do, Dr.
Moley can usually be found on
top.
Super
The new super-cabinet scheme
waa devised because of the con
tusion backstage here. During
recent weeks it has been Just
like war-times.
Officials have been running
around In all directions. A clear
Idea of what It was all about
was lacking. There was no co
ordination anywhere.
The Ice-pool went to one auth
ority In the Industrial control i
setup. They were told the ad
ministration did not want a code
for that Industry. Later they
saw another authority and he
told them the government did
want an Ice code. For dars
they did not know whether they
were in or out of the setup.
The soft drink people had ex
actly tbe same trouble.
A simple solution would have
been to mix the ice and the soft
drink and enjoy It. That is
what the super-cabinet Is sup
posed to do.
Tricks
There are a lot of things the
senate failed to find out about
Wall street. One Is that orders
frequently are placed to buy
storks far above the price they
are quoted.
The specialist In General Elec
tric stock could have testified
that when the stock was at 21,
he had large orders to buy It as
soon as It got to 24.
The Idea Is that stocks have
certain reslstsnce levels. Certain
purchasers were convinced that
If General Electric ever passed
24, It would go to 30. It did.

Notes
Senator Glaus must Rave heard
about Prof. Berle's banking' bill
researches during his recent
White House conference. Upon
emerging, he said: "1 cannot
answer banking questions be
cause I understand Rerle is In
charge of that now." The ap
proval of Glass will be necessary

tion tries to make in the Glass

Warren and Rodgers have per
formed Important aervicea for
the administration and never
have received credit. That
thought had more to do with
their employment than the neces
sity of managing currency or
converting short term credits.
Nothing especially new Is to be
undertaken by them.

e
POTATO prices are related very
closely Indeed to supply.
In 1925, for example, total pro
ductlon In the United States was
323.000,000 bushels. This crop
sold for J804.000.000, or an av
erage of Just a little less than
11.00.
In 1926, total production was
350,000,000 bushels, and this
crop sold for 1601,000.000. or 1
little less than the smaller crop
of the year before.
Now listen to this: In the fol
lowing year, 1917, total produc
tion In the United States rose to
406,000,000 bushels, and thla
much larger crop sold for only
1317.000,000, or about HALF as
much as the far smaller crops of
1925 and 1928.
Potato prices, you see, go down
as the supply goes np and goes
up as the supply goes down. And
do It radically.
T-HE BIG question right now, of
course, is this: What will po
tatoes be worth here In the
Klamath country thla tall T
Nobody can answer that ques
tion with positive certainty. But
in 1925, with a 323 million bushel
crop In the United States, the

$1.50 to 12.00, and went above
13.00 the next spring. In 1930.
with a 333 million bushel crop,
the price opened at 11.76 in the
fall.
With a crop of only around
300 million bushels in sight tblr

price ought to run around 11.60
