The surprising thing is that so few objections on the part of employers have been made to various features of the code, which in a great measure, does take management of private business out of owners' hands.

(Associated Press Photo) DISCUSS CRIME CAMPAIGN been ndured for some weeks, the public convinced that it would soon be over: but now comes the Intimation from Washington placeholders that It is no longer necessary for the American people to have a government, that "carditicns" make it essential that "Johnsonism" be perpetuated and that the bureaucracy continue to tax extor-tionately the public, with aid of a servile congress, and to dispense the huge funds raised at its will; esential that the American citizens be compelled, under the lash of governmental displeasure and boycott, to bow the knee to this politico economic Moloch. Can this be America? God save the mark Tne genius of federal office-holders in hanging on to power would render envious any leech or cuttle-fish known to zoology. This magnificent opportunity fcr exaggerated egotism and profitable self service will not be relinquished until the hands of the public servants holding it are severed at the wrists. This duty must be performed, and quickly, if the American people are notto lose the splendid gains of one hundred and fifty years under free institutions, and revert to the days when men had not sufficient enlightenment to govern themselves, when they had to have task-masters who knew what should be done and the strength and cruelty to see that men did it. Prosperity, if it comes, will be dearly purchased by the loss of all that is worth while.

If it does not come after these "experiments." the ensuing economic chaos and confusion will throw the present depression into sheer insignificance. A child, even, may look forward to the conditions that will prevail if we abandon the true principles of government, the government itself, to achieve some degree of economic recovery. With all the sacred safe-guards for individual protection thrown down, huge debts, huge taxation and huge swarms of public servants, entrenched politicians, in position of power, it may be impossible for the national life to go on. Out of this welter will come, confessedly, great advantages to greedy and selfish exploiters of the public, and to those unalterably fixed in control of the destinies of the nation. The republic will be only a name! Government in the hands of ambitious men is and has always been a powerful engine of oppression.

The heart of the people is sound and the loyalty of the masses to their country true. The people hold within the hollow of their hands the power to abolish this cancerous evil, far graver than the depression, to insure a correction of economic wrongs and a more equitable distribution of the results of human toil. This may well be done by proud American sovereigns, exercising the supreme power of government under our institutions, and by a restoration of the only principles under which, in all the world's history, the individual citizen has even been permitted to measure up to his full stature of independent and equal manhood. "The voice of the people is the voice of God," and "Under God the people rule." Have we forgotten? Under representative system of government let us have representation! Instead of a handful of loyal congressmen and senators, let us have entire legislative bodies whose efforts will be in the interest of the great masses of the republic and whose courage will force the servants of the people back into their proper places and wrest from them usurped power. It is an insult to suggest that the people of the United States, who won their liberty from England and whose invincible spirit) has triumphed at every great national crisis during one hundred and fifty years of self-government, are now unable to settle some economic problems and must surrender the most priceless heritage of the human race, our free country, which we love and for which we would willingly die, to an aggregation of fanatics who, as a gifted and courageous divine has said, "Are driving us Hell-bent for bent on forcing on The professors seem to have come into their own over In Spain also.

Most of the government policies, we are told, are fashioned after theories moulded in the quiet of college libraries and whatever special name they have for the dens these professors in habit. They are also being used to supply one language to the people. Spain isn't much larger than one of our states, but it has as many dialects as a dog has fleas. Only a few words are pronounced the same the country over, and a word with ont meaning in Andalusia has a different one in all the other provinces. This Is a Job that ought to be to the liking of the professors; in this country we regard them as fine fellows with lots of good ideas but none of them practical.

Maybe Roosevelt will show us how wrong we are. In a program as vast and complex as that which makes up the new deal it is inevitable that contradictions of policies occur, but there certainly cannot be any way to explain the allot-i ment of large sums for the development of western and far western reclamation projects. If these eventually are completed several million acres will be added to crop acreage at the same time that the administration is asking the owners of wheat and cotton lands to let a considerable percentage of their holdings lie idle. The charge has been made repeatedly at Washington during past administrations, when senators from these states urged certain projects, that the primary purpose of these was to give value to large tracts of land owned by rich promoters, and in the face of that charge, lately repeated, the administration shows a strange sort of courage in going ahead with them. Food At The Fair A correspondent of the Detroit News warns his fellow-citizens that food is high at the Chicago Fair.

"An ordinary luncheon in an ordinary counter restaurant is rarely lower than 75 cents. Dinners range from $1.10 up. A cheese sandwich with a small glass of 3.2 beer in one Fair cafe costs 90 cents. "At the risk of incurring the displeasure of the Fair officials, I suggest that you take all your meals outside the grounds. "Besides, the crowds in the Fair restaurants make eating something between a gymnastic feat and a test of resistance.

Waiting customers crowd around your chair all during the meal and pounce on it when you rise." The same correspondent warns of street rackets. Trust no strangers, says he. This latter is good advice anywhere at any time. And the word about food is not intended to be discouraging. Returned visitors are full of enthusiasm for the marvelous sights to be seen, the great and stimulating experience the Fair has been to them.

However, a little knowledge of conditions to be encountered may save embarrassment and difficulty at a time which should be filled to the brim with interest and delight. P. S. Be sure to take two pairs of old and comfortable shoes. The distances are enormous.

Next time there's a row between a. gossip columnist and a mammy singer, let's lock 'cm up together without witnesses or publicity and let 'em fight it out. Only objection is that they'd probably just weeprft out on each other's shoulders. Postoffice officials report that the mail volume the country over is m-creasing rapidly. Whether the increase will be sufficient to take care of reduced postal rates remains to be seen.

Further reduction of the letter rate would undoubtedly greatly increase the first class mail volume. It might also increase the total postal revenues. The point of diminishing returns was reached when postal rates were increased. The tax was greater than the traffic could bear. The veterans' bureau has created close to one hundred boards of examiners before whom veterans may present their claims for disability.

These are to consider what are called "presumptive cases," those in which there Is evidence to show that the present condition of the ex-soldier is traceable to his service. General Hines has instructed these boards to give the benefit of the doubt to the claimant, but beyond that they must not go. The general insists that the pension roll should be an honor roll and this is not possbile unless every man is actually deserving of the aid of the government. So far one veteran is being placed on each board. Hosiery manufacturers challenge the legality of the recovery act.

The challenge offered relates to the constitutionality of that provision which reserves to labor the right to organize and bargain collectively, and holds that under supreme court decisions, it is contrary to constitutional rights. It was argued that manufacturers agreeing to this provision of the code would waive their ights. This objection was called by Sidney Hillman, one of the administration labor advisers, the "most outrageous statement made by TO A series of confernnres cntlcd hy Molcy to seek ways of unifvipg frcfrral nnd state activities ope." -tl the novcrnment's anti-crime campaign.
