Ac Confidence Bolstered When a man is held up in a dark alley he probably doesn’t worry so much about his life as he does about that five dollar bill he has in his pocket. He hates to part with it. Intuitive President Roosevelt, knowing full well that many a U. S. business man, large and small, who still has a five dollar bill in his pocket, has been worrying about Uncle Sam extracting it down some dark tax alley, Monday spoke calculatingly. ‘ From Washington in a report he told his fellow citizens that increasing government reve- nues derived from a heavily taxed reviving business will forestall necessity of increasing levies at this time. Then at Boulder Dam he declared “the actual credit of government agencies is on a stronger and safer basis than at any time in the past six years.” He further asserted that once again our citizenry is paying taxes when they are due and cleaning up delinquent obliga- tions to the various political sub-divisions. Two obvious effects will these two state- ments have. One will stymie his critics for the time being. The other will emphasize that he meant what he said a few weeks ago when he declared that business could expect a “breath- ing spell” insofar as government interference was concerned. Aside from his cheering news that original estimates of the federal deficit would have to be graduated downward, he said little that hasn’t been said by him before. He was voic- ing for thenation what the majority of observ- ing citizens have been aware of for the past six months—that there is a definite and steady recovery in progress. His touching upon the unemployment prob- lem was a natural sequel to the fate of the NRA. With that New Deal agency declared unconstitutional, with the CCC, PWA and WPA bearing the brunt of furnishing jobs, it was sooner or later let private industry know that it must now do its share towards putting men back to work. The government’s public works projects have “thrown in the clutch to start the wheels.” Now the chief executive expects private in- dustry to direct the employment machine’s progress. It remains to be seeri whether the presi- dent’s discourse on the AAA was a threat, fore- cast or merely a statement. He said unless the AAA’s processing taxes are knocked out by the supreme court, the gov- ernment “will not need new taxes or increased rates in existing taxes to meet the expenses of its necessary annual operations.” Here the president touched upon a subject universal in national interest. His statement may give pause to the industrial interests clamoring for death of the AAA, ‘In the long run processing taxes as opposed to increased corporate taxes might be the lesser of two evils. And in the same ratio it would affect the farmer. He not only would lose his allotment check but would see his income probably fur- ther assessed to grease the cumbersome wheels of Washington. And whether or not the aver- age citizen is affected directly or indirectly by the AAA, all can read in the impending supreme court decision on the validity of this farm relief agency the threat of higher taxes any- way. But what little pessimism crept into his speech and report was more than offset by the optimistic review and outlook. What the president obviously hopes i¢ that once started will not slip back into the doldrums and that business will continue to The Bismarck Tribune|, t | last—Theodore Roosevelt, that is. The long-considered ehind the Scenes | L in Washington | By WILLIS THORNTON | Government to Push “Baby Bonds” This Fall . .. Island Memorial Is Planned for Teddy ... Liberty League Oversteps Itself . .. Two Federal Agencies Toil Long Hours and Receive Nice “Thank You.” Washington, Oct, 1.—The government's campaign to sell “baby bonds” to the average citizen is going to get a lift this fall. Plans are under way for a fairly intensive campaign throughout the country. It calls for posters and an ad- vertising campaign, and one treasury official is already out “pepping up” local postmasters in good-sized cities. Total of these “baby bonds” already sold, some. $132,- 000,000 worth to date, means nothing in a national debt of 30 billions, but it does mean something in a couple of other ways, especially if it could be multiplied by ten. First, all war-time Liberty Bonds having been called, there is now no government bond issue: widely held among the masses of the people. War campaigns taught the people the advantages of government bonds for the first time in American history and millions of “little ee had government obligations in small denomina- ions. That's regarded as a stable factor in government, as France has found. Most every peasant there has a gov- ernment bond tucked away in his sock. Such do not “revolute.” Many -government officials’ would feel better if a couple of million more people here had just such a direct interest in their government. as they did during and just after the World War. Second, the “baby bonds,” bought with reg- ularity, offer a chance for people whose middle- sized incomes exclude them from the provisions @ of the security program to create their own an- nuities and make their own security. And, third, they tend to relieve by just so much as can be accomplished the condition of banks which for months have been gorged with government bonds. * ke MORE HONOR FOR TEDDY The capital is to have a memorial to Roosevelt at project to make a park of Analostan Island is under way, with a selected CCC crew in charge. ... They've found no end of Indian relics in digging about the island, which had plenty of historic connections before the Lincoln Memorial bridge was built right beside it... . A dash- ing equestrian statue of Teddy with Custer and Black Hawk will feature it eventually.

Is is ethical for a group of law- ‘Thus is Mr. Patman cast into the outer darkness}Yers to decide the constitutionality of @ measure in advance of and or theories of currency, with which the Legion does not intend to become involved.” (in itself, no doubt, a laudable achievement) and the Legion freed from its equivocal role as shock troops for the softemoney maniacs. As the New York commander put it, the Legion is no longer to be used for a “political”! purpose. But one must still wonder at the persistence of the notion that organized political power can be ap- to force a cash gratuity on this scale without get-| ting into politics. One can only admire that naivete of phrasing which suggests that an organization can de- mand the instant payment of some $2,000,000,000 of the taxpayers’ money without involving itself in “issues of goverment finance or theories of the currency.” All that the Legion wants is the money, and it will let others worry about how it is to be raised, what the effect will be on governmental finance or how the cur- rency is to be protected from further strains which such @ subsidy would necessarily set up. It has no intention of getting “involved” in issues of that sort. Ah, well! It would be easier to blame, the Legion for its attiude were it not so thoroughly in tune with the times. Appar- ently the last thing which any good American politician or pressure group is prepared to do is to accept responsi: bility for the inevitable consequences of their demands. All the farmers want is to have their prices raised, pro- vided somebody else will save them from the inevitable curtailment of their markets. All labor wants is a thirty- hour week, and it will let others solve the problem of keeping industry alive to supply it. All industry wants is low costs and high prices, and it will permit others to decide how this is to be arranged in a system in which the costs of one are the prices of another. But the really shining examplar of the Legion’s atti- tude is, of course, the New Deal, which has “non- politically: borrowed and spent about $10,000,000,000 of the people’s money while carefully refusing to “compli- cate or confuse” this simple process with any considera- tion for government finance, currency theory or the ulti- mate consequences of the transaction.
