Plain Common Sense President Roosevelt's “retreat” from the NRA, in so far as the smaller towns of the country are concerned, is an evidence of good common sense. It should do much to diminish the barrage of criticism which has come from the agricultural areas as a re- sult of the blue eagle, even though it is not, in itself, an answer to cur- rent maladjustments. In the first rush of enthusiasm for the NRA, everyone strove to obtain the coveted insignia. To many it appeared that failure to do so would _— }here or whether it originated here is 00|derstands it to mean. Clearly, how- has been in use for some time. As long as two years ago, Bismarck’s war veterans formed a “Chiseler's Society” as a jest. Who brought the term unknown. Sufficient to say that it “took” well and has long been in common use to designate the man who stays within the rules, yet gets what he wants by devious means best known to himself. In a way, it has meant racketeering within the law. In its broader application the word means whatever the user intends it to mean or whatever the hearer un- ever, it is no synonym for ang But we shall have to find a definite meaning for it now, because, since the president has used it, the word is @ definite part of the language. Frank H. Vizetelly, lexicographer| who is just about the last word on such matters in this country, says it is, and that is that. He's the fellow who tells the publishers what all the words in the dictionary mean. Says Vizetelly: “President Roose- velt's use of the word automatically elevates it from the status of slang to colloquialism. It is to be expected that, consequently, ‘chiseler’ will find its way into good English. When a man of such station as the president of the United States employs a slang phrase he clothes it with dignity.” Three of the last five presidents, therefore, may be entered in the class of word makers or phrase coiners. ‘Woodrow Wilson's “Making the world safe for democracy” gave a new twist to much-abused democracy, par- ticularly in view of the demonstra- tion we now have before us in all parts of the world. Warren G. Harding's “normalcy” was @ sort of lexicographical resur- Wonder How Today’s News Would Have Looked 30 Years Ago! his use of the word brought it back mean both social ostracism and “busi- ness death,” the latter phrase having been coined by General Hugh John- son, NRA administrator. As a result, nearly every store in nearly every town blossomed out with the blue eagle poster. They were easily obtained. All one had to do was to sign the president's blanket code. In actual practice, however, living up to the requirements has not been so easy, particularly for the mer- chant in the small town. In & great many cases, observance of the code has meant the addition of one clerk. If the number previ- ously employed was only one, it meant a boost of 100 per cent in overhead costs. If two clerks had previously been employed, the boost was 50 per cent. The money had to come from some- where and so prices sky-rocketed. The farmer found that his cream check, only slightly larger than at the minimum prices recorded earlier in the year, was buying less than it ever had before. The same thing held true with his revenue from other products, when he had any. And in this area the drouth materially re- duced the volume of what the farmer had to sell. Another factor which may not be overlooked, is that some merchants, after joining the NRA, disregarded the code provision not to mark up prices any more than was justified by the increased expense, and added a little more to provide an extra profit. In a great many cases this was jus- tifled, for some business houses had been going steadily into the red and the new scheme of things gave them @ chance to get even. But justified or unjustified, the * effect was the same. The farmer's products, translated into terms of into use—even if only temporarily. Now Franklin D. Roosevelt “clothes with dignity” the term used to desig- nate a peculiar kind of cheater. If he does or has done nothing else he has assured himself of a kind of fame. Wiggin and Wages ‘The most important single element back of all the experiments of the New Deal is the general public's state of mind. And an excellent way to get &@ size-up on this mental attitude is to review the case of Mr. Albert H. Wiggin, former head of the Chase National bank in New York. . ‘Wiggin retired some little time ago on a pension of $100,000 a year. But it is the disclosures about the salary he received before his retirement which give you the interesting slant on the public’s outlook. Mr. Wiggin drew down $218,000 in 1930, and in 1931 his pay was boosted to $250,000. And less than a fort- night after he had received this pleasant little increase, he issued a| the public statement, recommending that| after cine. duced. make prosperity. He suggested that the buying power of labor.” And he himself just had been lift- ed to a quarter million a year! easily for the touchy state of public opinion.

The rise began with the advent of the blue eagle and so antagonism was directed toward it. He had cause to protest and he did ‘%o with chasacteristic vigor. Now the majority of stores in towns of 2,500 or less can restore their businesses to the previous con- dition if they care to do so. The blue eagle no longer offers legitimate rea- son for upping prices because of in- creased overhead costs. It no longer serves as shield for profiteering on the part of those who were disposed to “chisel.” In fairness to all merchants, how- ever, Mt should be made ‘clear that|tairty per cent of the girls placed |shiet elements in, the composition. of body.
