may be said that congress has earned out the legislative reforms of the capital market to which the new deal was pledged This does not mean' that in the years to come there will not be further reforms of our financial system It does not mean that Llppmann the new laws will not be amended from tune to time as experience shows the need Rut it does mean that the basic principles of the new deal In finance to which this administration was committed by its platform and-by the speeches have beep established In respect to his pledges of nancial reform Mr Roosevelt stands today about where Wood-row Wilson stood when he signed the federal reserve act From now on the problem is to make the new order in finance work by 'wise administration and where necessary by detailed amendment In all its essentials the country now knows the scope and the principal characteristics of the new order Cannot Foresee Ail Effects "of New Law It is not possible by searching the words of the statutes to arrive at a prophecy as to how these reforms will work We live under government of laws But the laws are administered by men and men are moved by their own ideai and by events which can not be foreseen The au- -thors of the federal reserve system did not and could not foresee the actual operation of the system in all of Its many impacts upon the finance of the world It would be naive therefore to suppose that we can foresee how the new laws Regulating the capital market will work In matters of this Sort what men have to rely upon finally Is the pur- -pose which the reforms seek to express For if they have agreed on the purpose they can by ad- ministration and amendment achieve as much of it as circumstances will permit Broadly' speaking It may be slid that for the first twelve months while this new legislation was in the making there was the profoundest uncertainty as to what the purpose of the reforms really was The first securities act the first stock exchange bill the investigation re fleeted the mood of the great panic of 1932-33 They were angry proceedings In Washington men were moved by righteous indignation in the financial communities men were terrorized and sullen -J In the past three months this mood has given way to a realization in Washington that reforms must work and in Wall Street that reforms are necessary Until recently many men in Washington were half persuaded that a privately conducted capital market could never be reformed effectively in the financial centers many were persuaded that fhe real purpose of the reforms was to destroy the private capital market Cooling Off Processes Result in Compromise What We have witnessed since March are the cooling off the compromises and the accommodations which hre the essence of the democratic process It is sometimes said that it is not news when an institution works as it was intended to work that in polities as in digesting our dinner we are conscious of what is happening only when something goes wrong But in these days twhen every upstart is so scornful of democracy the course of events since these new measures began to be debated is one in which we can take pride We have seen a great controversy over very Intricate matters men have spoken their minds freely have been listened to carefully and have persuaded other men to change their opinions and meet them at least half way That is how democracy is meant to work No one has ever claimed for it that it could not (Continu'd nn Pun Four (Column Three!

Roosevelt complaining about the nonsettlement of the projected steel strike had not been signed by any authorized of the Amalgamated Association of Iron Steel and Tin The men who did sign it members of the rank and file committee of the union apparently do not understand the law Johnson added effort were altogether confined to trying to explain to these men what they could do to obtain the benefits of the recovery the gen ral said "They did not seem to be interested In hiving this done for Johnson's lengthy statement called the plan he presented to the union a advance in the attitude of
