Since Mr. McAdoo, as the chief fimancier of the Democratic administration, has seen fit to raise the . “ responsibility for the disastrous ef- periinent toJook back over the Shistory that defiation took place. If McAdoo will turn to page 57 of the report of the Federal Reserve board, eeptances and i per cent. On the following page he will find the state- (ment that rates on commercial paper and on agricul- ‘ural and livestock paper were advanced in June to per cent by four banks and the trade acceptance rate to the same level by three of the same banks and the bank advancing it to 6% per cent. On page Mr. McAdoo will find this increased discount rate ireferred to as a means of ‘credit control,’ which is, of course, another name for deflation. That the Federal Reserve board did not start this defination program in Zenorance of its effects is shown by a statement on gpage 11 in which the board says that it ‘has never @ailed to take account of the consequences of its dis- ount policies.” Thus we see that the board began its increase of discount rates early in 1920 and had raised the discount rates on commercial, agricultural and Bivestock paper-to 6% or 7 per cent in June of that year.” But there fs other evidence of the time when the @efiation movement began. If Mr. McAdoo will turn to page 41 of the “Annalist” for January 3, 1921, a periodical pubiished by = D>mocratic newspaper, he ‘will find a chart showing the average wholesale price of twenty-five food commodities, these commoditier ‘eing the principal agricaltural products of the United States, and the prices given being practically those which the producer receives. He will find from that chart that in June, 1920, wholesale prices of agricul- tural products were represented by an index number of 329. By the middle of February, 3221, before the Repablicans had come into power, those average, whole- @ale values had diminished to a scale represented by tne index number 185. This was a decrease of 144 points or almost 44 per cent. There are facts which Mr. McAdoo must know if hhe has made any effort to speak advisedly. If he does mot know them, he has poor educational training for such a high office as the presidency. If he knew the facts but misstated them, he has disqualifications other than educational that would render him unfit either for the presidency or for amy other office of public trust. (nee PEPPER SUMS IT UP. ‘The clearest and most concise statement of the New- erry case has been made by Senator Pepper of Penn- sylvania, one of the greatest lawyers of the country and a citizen of highest standing. Senator Pepper paid: “The Michigan primary was held August 27, 1918. Mr. Newberry was a candidate for the Republican memination. Mr. Henry Ford announced himself as a candidate for the Republican nomination and also as a Democrat contesting for the Democratic nomination. Ford had a state-wide industrial organization which he was able to use for publicity and campaign pur- poses without the expenditure of additional mone: Newberry, being without this sdvantage and being co’ tinuously absent from the state on naval duty, the committee in charge of his campaign raised and spent pbout $195,000 to bring his name before the people "| ment, regardless of what political party or individuals substitute its judgment for that of the people of Mich- m as to what is a reasonable preprimary expen-| Giture? } “From the moment that I perceived this to be the real question in the case I was never in doubt abovt) the answer. My view was—end is—that where their verdict.” | EEE SE CES TAINTED HISTORY. One of the history text books used in the public schools regarded as inaccurate, mis- leading, untruthful and altogether unfit to guide stu- nts to a proper knowledge of their country is known as Muzz School History, written by David & Muzzey. | Some of the specifications taken from the book itself | will re appeal to American citizens generally as scarcely to be tolerated in schools where facts and un-| biased truth are presumed to be the basis of informa- tion imparted. For instance on page 509 this is found: “A clique of Wall Street bankers practically man- aged the country during Grant’s presidency; and ever since that time the great capitalists who have financed our railroads, our mines, our oil fields, our steel mills and our packing houses have expected and received from congress favors and immunities which have made them fabulously rich and bred in many of them the belief that the government exists primarily for the purpose of protecting and increasing their private of tk ence of big money interests, and al%ieges that corrup- tion, bribery and graft are the inevitable results of such inflvence. Teachers are expected to teach their! pupils that congress is filled with corruption, bribery and graft. The statement is bolshevistic in that it at- tempts to arry the public mind against the govern- may be in control. a whole.
