It grows clearer every day that a bumper percentage ¢f public of- fices, all up and down the are destined to change hands as a rcsfi of the 1932 elections. | y period of pusiness sLagna»; tion is bad for the “ins” but for | a particular reason the present re- cession is harder on politicians than any of its predecessors. And for this the polit themseives to blame. In recent years the Federn“ State and local governments have been expanding their activities by leaps and bounds. Public service entered 50 many new fields that i5 seemed only a question of time when no citizen would have to shave himself or rock the baby. Much of the expansion was worthy, but a great part of the| most expensive of it was pure political pork, served out to special classes and special lccalities as a tait for votes. Now (that taxes, and especially state taxes, have swollen 0 unbearable proportions it is omnly natural that the politi- cal porkbarrelers should suffer the line, | § ans have only | the government for almnost every- thing, the taxpayer is more inclined | to blame the government for al- most everything. Re-Election Worries Ii is bard 'to recall a time when many members of Congress, both | licans and 'Democrats, worried about re-election. But Washington is not the sole target of the prevailing discon- | 'tent. In many states Governors |and Legislators of all parties are krying desperately to explain why tale taxes are so high, why more can't be done for the unemployed. It may be a matter of great | dispute how much responsibility for present conditions, nationally and locally, really rests on public) officials. There can be no ques- tion, however, what hundreds of lhousands of voters think about they believe public affairs have been badly managed, and nobody jcan make them see it any other way. Protest Vote Expected Even President Hoover's nearest friend would not deny that a con- | siderable “protest vote” will be, cast against him in November un- | less times get better meantime.
