TAX FLAW SEEN INTUGWELL IDEAL Question of Funds for ‘Third Economy’ Declared Overfooked. BY DAVID LAWRENCE. Just the other day, 8 prominent offi- eial of the Wilson administration re- marked to a friend that the $4,800,- 000,000 appropriation bill which has just become law would profoundly | change the history of the United States for all time. Within 24 hours thereafter, Rexford Tugwell, Undersecretary of Agricul- ture and the real spokesman for Pres- ident Roosevelt nowadays, made & speech in which he proclaimed for the first time his concept of the “third economy”—a new description of the New Deal, which aims neither to go to the “right” nor the “left” which doesn't bring us either Communism or Fascism, but which places in the hands of the Federal Government new con- trols over certain phases of our eco- nomic life. I should like to explore with you. said Dr. Tugwell in his prepared a dress, “the geography of what could be called the third economy—the sphere which belongs neither to private profit nor to State Socialism as it is generally understood by those who advocate or fear the nationalization of utilities, key industries, basic natural resources, | banks and other institutions of similar | social importance.” Public Works Stressed. Prof. Tugwell, who 1s to have the responsibility for spending a large | part of the $4,800,000,000 fund on be- | half of the President, points out mn‘ there is a category of public works of necessary yet unprofitable measures | “which must be taken to preserve the values of our national patrimony.” He concedes that these things *‘do not ap- peal very strongly to that important group which, set aside from common | insecurity by the possession of wealth, | resents the necessity for taxing itself | for the sake of posterity.” He goes on to argue that people still ask, “What has posterity done for us?” and that people generally do not seem to be | willing “to forego immediate pleasures | and opportunities for the sake of gen- erations yet unborn,” but he thinks that nevertheless such a public sertl- | ment can be and should be developed. After outlining certain types of public works which “cannot return a direct profit to the State or to the in- dividual,” such as control of soil ero- | slon, by dams and by drainage, canals, shelter-belts, reforestation, flood and | wind' control measures, he adds proj- | ects for rural housing, rural sanita- tion, rural electrification and com- munity developments. Dr. Tugwell goes along with Federal Relief Admin- | istrator Hopkins, who said the critics “'were too damn dumb to understand” the finer things of life. Holds Developments Necessary. “Such community developments,” says Dr. Tugwell, “as recreational fa- cilities, educational, artistic and cul- | tural enterprises, which create both new demands and new satisfactions, are an indispensable part of this pro- gram to concerve our national re- | sources and to develop them as well as our own capacity to utilize and enjoy their benefits.” On the question of industry Dr. ‘Tugwell is no -less specific. He de- clares: “For the main task of production we shall always have to work under | some form of co-ordination, whether that co-ordination is . expressed through public control over hours, | ‘wages, prices and conditions of em- ployment, or through what President | Roosevelt has called partnership with | industry. “Co-ordination is the essential ele- ment in large-scale production. * * * | It seems to me that we are now en- | gaged in a more or less conscious proc- ess of reassigning and redistributing powers and controls in the indis- pensable co-ordination. Appeals to Teachers. “In certain spheres, no doubt, where | enterprise is affected with a public in-* terest, we shall be forced to resort to an Increasing degree of public author- | ity to achieve the necessary control.l Public ownership of certain utilities #eems to me clearly forecast by pres- | ent facts.” | Dr. Tugwell's remsrks were ad- dressed to the school teachers of Rochester, N. Y., to whom he is ap- pealing for the spread of propaganda | in support of the “third economy.” Said Dr. Tugwell on this point: | “The teaching profession, it seems | to me. holds largely in its own hands | the answer to the question of whemeri the American people can escape from the iron ring of logic which would narrow their choice of policy to purely conventional alternatives, and so bring to their new economic and social op- portunities a new attitude, a new spirit and a new faith.” . Tax Question Paramount. The revelation of the third economy this week; as plans are being made to | spend. the $4,800,000,000, may or may | not be a coincidence. But nowhere in | Dr. Tugwell's address is there any | fourth economy, which is to answer the question of how the American | people are to be taxed to pay for these | public ownership adventures. | If the sources of taxation—the | profits—are to be abolished or'dried up so that private businesses and suc- cessful individuals who pay revenues to States and cities which need funds to support schools and other public works can no longer do so, some one will have to devise a substitute econ- omy. Such an achievement would make the Treasury officials less wor- ried and cure all monetary difficulties, and the inventor would be awarded the highest honors his countrymen could bestow.

MOSCOW, April 12.—Soviet officials and the press alike withheld comment today on developments in the tri- partite conference at Stresa. The at- titude appeared to be one of waiting for further announcements either from Stresa or Geneva before making any official commitments. | Observers point out that the Soviet | press on the very eve of the Stresa conference was denouncing whatever attempt might be made to sidetrack the eastern security pact by propos- ing a general European accord as & substitute. Yet, the Tass (official Soviet news agency) statement last night said the Pranco-Soviet under- standing for a mutual assistance pact is “on & basis of a general European agreement.” A |any room for drama now.

Presidential Fanfare. RESIDENT ROOSEVELT'S dra- matic recurn to the Washing- ton battlefront was not very dramatic. Last year he came came back “a tough guy.” This time he just came back. There was no parade of members cf Congress down to the station to greet him, no band. no swift-swinging and hard-hitting promises by the Presi- dent. This was due only incidentally to the fact that he went on to New York to attend the funeral of a life- long friend. The real reason was that the sit- uation this year in fundamentally different. The job he is facing with a lazy and disinterested Con- gress is too varied and too delicate to permit him to try any of his old bold strokes. A mild build-up was attempted for him on the assumption that he would take hold of the 4.880,000,000 relief dollars with vigor. But this job also requires more endless, tedious, detailed planning than vigor. There just isn't too much work. President Blamed. Congressional leaders are telling their friends Mr. Roosevelt is re- sponsible for slowing down the con- gressional machine. Their view is that he has not furnished enough leadership on particular issues—social security, NRA reorganization, holding companies, the bank bill. | This may be partially true. It does not explain why the Senate, after sit- ting three months and passing only one major piece of legislation, has been able to find nothing important to do while all the other New Deal bills are stuck on the fiypaper of the ! The same situ- ation prevails to & large extent in the | House, 1 The greatest deliberative bodies in the world appear to be deliberating | more for the purpose of delay than delaying for the purpose of delibera- tion. Huey Tax Case Curbed. 1 There are good reasons for believ- ing the Treasury wants to start u tax case against Huey Long, but the White House does not. Those who have their ears at the Treasury keyhole have heard that Mr. Morgenthau's sleuths, after years of undermining in Louisiana, struck what they thought was pay dirt a few weeks 2go. Some question has arisen about how much the dirt will pay. The | Treasury thought it had a fairly good case and wanted to proceed. The matter was submitted to the White House, where it was quietly flled away, for the time being. Apparently the White House did not share the Treasury’s enthusi- asm amout the case. At least mot just at this time. | Most of the political experts believe it would be foolish for the administra- tion to go out of its way to make a martyr of Huey. | The Genteel Newsman. A London correspondent, visiting view with Huey. A meeting was ar- ranged through one of Long's friends, and the correspondent went to Long's office. There he found America’s hit- less Hitler fanning the air in deep thought. “You want an interview with me, eh!” said (not asked) the Kingfish. “You want to know about American politics and about me, en! Well, get out your paper and take this down. Are you ready?

He had never seen or heard anything like that, even in Europe. MY ! WORD The conservative elements here and in New York have been hopping about lately, contending the New Deal is done for. They are enthusiastically confident that Mr. Roosevelt will not be re-elected next year. Apparently they have overlooked the practical implications behind the new relief bill. Some of Mr. Roosevelt’s associates regard it as his masterpiece in tactical maneu= vering. Fundamentally it is a two- year blanket lease on erpenditures, No congressional strings are hang~ ing loose. Members of Congress and their constituents will have to come to him for money and proj- ects. He has regained the upper hand for at least 18 months more. Then the election will be over. Every politician knows what this means. If the conservatives are right when | they say that spending won the last election, they should now be saying ‘Tuesday. One of Huey's bodyguards carries s Phi Beta Kappa key. Also two guns. The White House has said: “We are shooting at July 1, 1936” as the date for concluding existing relief ex- penditures. It may shoot at July 1, but will hit election day the follow- ing November. ‘The late Adolph Ochs used to say to some of his associates in his de- clining years: “It is not good for a man to live too long.

PLANNED Roosevelt - Approval Is Ex- pected Today—$600,000 Allocated for Project. BY J. RUSSELL YOUNG. President Roosevelt today took the first active step to put in motion his $4,000,000,000 work relief pregram. After he had conferred with Robert Fechner, Civilian Conservation Corps director, the latter announced that 300,000 new men would be enrolled in the organization within 60 days. ‘The President is expected to put his official approval upon the plans be- fore the day is over, and the work of expanding the C. C. C. to double its present size will start at once. | In order to check up on the finan- cial part of the C. C. C, program, the President had Daniel W. Bell, jr., acting director of the Budget Bureau, sit in for a part of the conference. Under the terms of the new work re- lief act, $600,000,000 is to be allotted for this recovery agency. New Sites Planned. As Fechner was lesving the White House he said that within a few days he would bring to the President for his approval the selection of the new sites throughout the country for C. C. C. camps. There are to be 1,740 new camps, making - total up to 2,916, which will make it possible to take care ol the 300,000 additional men, making a total enrollment of & trifle over 600,000 It was believed the corps will per- mit absorption of some of the college graduates coming out of school this June who might be unable to find work otherwise. Fechner said the new camps will be distributed among the nine Army Corps areas in about the same ratio as the existing camps. ion, the new camps will be ready for occupancy in about 60 days. The work of laying out and constructing the various camps will be done by the Army, and as is the case at pres- ent, the officers jn charge of the new | camps will be selected by the Army from the Officers’ Reserve Corps. Confers With Tugwell. After Fechner left, went into conference with Dr. Rex- ford Guy Tugwell, Undersecretary of Agriculture, who is expected to occupy a major position in the work relief set-up. Administration officials said mean- while they expected public works to become a permanent part of the national economy, the Associated Press reported. Harry L. Hopkins, the relief admin- istrator, said the work program by putting 3,500,000 men to work would break the back of the relief bugaboo 50 far as the Government was con- | cerned. He added that he expected public works would continue. The President and a delegation of mayors got together yesterday in an effort to decide how much of the four billion dollars should be expended on city projects. Among some of the mayors there had been the expressed fear that the cities, where the bulk of the unem- ployed are, would not receive enough money to put their men to work. Offi- cials declined to talk about the matter or how it would be handled. After the White House the gist of their com- ment was that they had a “very satisfactory and encouraging talk.” Consider Mississippi Work. At about the same time it was disclosed that the administration was giving close thought to the feasi- bility of carrying out upward of $300,000,000 of projects in the Mis- sissippi Basin. The projects would involve power, irrigation, navigation and flood control, with the latter receiving the greatest stress. Only a few on the long list of such | Washington, wanted to get an inter- | Projects that have been put before the President involved water power, | but he did have a recommendation that the Mississippi Basin would be & good place to try out rural elec- trification. ‘While the President was going over plans for the work program, Secre- | tary Ickes and Harry L. Hopkins, the | relief administrator, two of those who have been closely associated with | him during the formulation of the program, held press conferences. Their talks with newspaper men were sprinkled with “I don't know,” or “I can't discuss that,” but out of them came information that: A proposal to change the form of loan-and-grant, under which $900,- 000.000 will be provided to cities and State subdivisions, from a 70-30 ratio to one in which the Federal Govern- ment and the municipalities match funds on & 50-50 basis, is under con- sideration. Housing work probably will follow about the same cham =ls as before, with P. W. A. handling certain types of low-cost and slum clearance proj- ects in cities and the Relief Admin- | istration doing some rural buyilding. ‘The National Park Service has asked | that more of the new Civilian Con- servation Corps camps be stationed in public parks. TRADE DISCUSSED WITH AMBASSADORS State Department Officials and Japanese and French Envoys Confer. By the Associated Press. Continuing their efforts to recap- ture foreign business, State Depart- ment officlals yesterday discussed trade questions with the Japanese and French Ambassadors. After a lengthy confere: ce with Secretary Hull and Assistant Secre- tary Sayre, Hirosl Saito, the Japa- nese Ambassador, issued an optimis- tic statement predicting continued friendly and profitable trade between the two nations without the stimulus of & new reciprocal trade agreement. Andre de Laboulaye, the French Ambassador, discussed with Hull pending Franco-American questions, including trade negotiations, prior to the former's sailing tomorrow for Paris. The French Ambassador, who has been discussing the possibility of activity negotiations for a trade agree- ment with the United States which would eliminate some of the major discriminations now in force against American imports into France, told newspaper men the talks would go on during his absence and a final decision might be reached befors he returned ‘(in June, Daniels to Come Home.

Coincident with its current biennial show of American paintings, the Corcoran Gallery of Art will open to- morrow an exhibition of portrait heads of nine leading New Dealers by Reuben Nakian, an outstanding- American sculptor. 5 Administration officials represented in the exhibition are headed by Presi- dent Roosevelt, whose likeness in* plaster will occupy a place of honor in the central gallery of the second floor atrium.

TAMMANY JONS Tiger’s Tail Stepped On by Redistricting Bill, It Puts Up Fight. By the Associated Press. ALBANY, N. Y., April 12.—Having hurled defiance at President Roosevelt and Gov. Lehman, Tammany forces national and State administrations as the New York Legislature turned to the Democratic proposal for congres- sional reapportionment. Determined to prevent a redistrict- ing which would cut its representation from 10 to 7, the tiger stood shoulder to shoulder with Republicans to kill the measure, just as it voted down last night the administration’s State legis- lative reapportionment bill. Despite the Governor’s appeal to the | public to force passage of the measure and his charge to the legislators that they were failing in their duty, Tam- many and the Republicans sent the Senate-Assembly realignment plan down to defeat for a second time by nine votes.
