BY FRANG DISPUTE Linking Devaluation to Wage Scale Regarded Bad Blunder. BY WILLIAM BIRD. By Radio to The Star. PARIS, October 10.—The Blum eabinet contrived, by the incredibly bungling fashion in which it handled the devaluation problem, to garner all the oppobrium that was to be squeezed out of the operation, but little, 11 any, of the credit. Today, more than a full week after the special session of Parliament passed the bill, and in spite of the undoubted fillip it has given to trade, any impartial observer will admit that the cabinet's prestige has reached a very low ebb. Unless something happens to restore it in the next two or three weeks, the | chance of M. Blum and his colleagues weathering the coming budget debate s slim indeed. There was a large body of con- servative opinion in France favorable to devaluation, and a more astute presentation of the problem by Premier and Finance Minister Auriol would have rallied much conservative support to the "government's side— at least enough to avoid provoking a clash with the Senate. But the meas- ure was put up in such a way that even the opposition leader, Paul Reynaud, who has been preaching devaluation for nearly three years, voted against it. Went Too Far for Communists. ‘The main trouble once more was that M. Blum went too far in seeking to placate the Communists. At their insistence, he incorporated in his original bill a proviso that any in- crease in the cost of living would be compensated by automatic increases in wages. M. Blum must have known that such a proviso had no chance to pass the Scnate, at least without | “big stick” tactics. Perhaps M. Eluml was ready to welcome a test of | strength with the Senate. If the| Senate had overthrown the govern- ment on this issue, the conscript fathers could have been accused of circumventing the popular will. But M. Blum apparently did not foresee that a large fraction of the Radical party in the Chamber of Deputies would fail to follow him on the sliding wage scale proposition. | But, as many Radicals pointed out, why should wage earne:s be the only ones to be insured against rising prices? What about farmers? What about pensioners? What about small | holders of government bonds? wmz about other categories of citizens, who | get their earnings in forms other than | wages? As soon as these questions | were asked, the sliding scale was| doomed. The cabinet had to back down, and the Communists with them. , The consequence is that Blum is| now blamed by Conservatives for| seeking to favor the workers, and| blamed by the workers for yielding. | He reaps blame on both sides and | credit on neither. mfl Brfll“ digmond and Bll“l’\um‘ Crown, probapiy in of near Mayfower Ho- i Highland pl.

Keeps Baldwin Regmw Safe! Weakness of Oppos Stability of Government Despite Its Lack of Couragein Foreign Affairs. BY A. G. GARDINER. | By Radio to The Star. LONDON, Ocotber 10.—The strength of the Baldwin government is in the weakness of the opposition. internal policy the government has done excellently. It has established | the financial position of the country on a basis of security that is the envy of Europe. It has restored trade, reduced unemployment and made gen- erous and judicious adjustments of the national insurance system. But in world affairs it has lacked courage jand initiative, and in the Ethiopian business it committed enough “howl- ers” to have brought any government But it stands like a rock and is in no more present danger of falling than the Pyramids. And this for the reason that the country sees no alternative. For all practical purposes, the only opposi- tion is that of the Labor party. There is some revival of liberalism, but it is negligible for the present, and the attempt of the News-Chronicle to or- ganize a popular front on the French model of mobilizing all the parties of the left has been cold-shouldered by labor, which sees itself as the heir apparent to office. But labor itself | is in a worse fighting position than | it has been at any time since the war. ‘With the loss of its old leaders, Mac- | | Donald, Snowden and Thomas, it is his revolutionary outlook. lamentably lacking in personality. The only man among them who | really catches the eye of the country | by his parliamentary gifts is Sir Staf- ford Cripps, the eminent lawyer who sat in the former Labor government. And the more Sir Stafford attracts | attention, the more distress tucre is | in the Labor party. For Sir Statiord is I'enfant terrible of the movement. | If he is not a Communist, he is as near being one as makes no matter, and | his weekly speeches in the country are as uncompromising as they are | revolutionary. They alarm the con- servative-minded public, alarm still more his stolid colleagues in the labor movement. For they want office, they want their party to recover power, and they realize that the more Cripps speaks the more their hopes are damned. The mood of the public was never less revolutionary than it is today. Events on the continent have shocked it into a temper of extreme caution. It fears alike the creed of Russia and the creed of Germany and Italy, and the forces of communism and fascism are so contemptible that there is not a constituency in the country where a representative of either group would get elected. The Fascist Mosley him- self has the wisdom not to stand, and the Communist Cripps has hither- to owed his election to the fact that he has been a candidate of the Labor party. ‘Whether he will have that backing in future is doubtful. The Labor party, in its anxiety to convince that body of moderate opinion which sways elec- tions that it can be trusted, have moved very definitely to the right. The trade unionists, who are the backbone of the party, have banged the door of their congress against the | Communists. The parliamentary group has thrown over the leadership of Lansbury on the score of his ex- In its | but they | i | | ition Contributes to | ) treme pacifism. The official organ of | the party, the Daily Herald, has| markedly changed its note. And faced with the crucial problem of rearma- | ment, the party, saying it would ne‘er | | consent, has, like the lady in Don | Juan, “consented,” and has formally ratified the consent at the party con- | | ference this week. Any other course would have put it so completely in antagonism to | the feeling of the country as to have destroyed its claim to be a responsible opposition. Moreover, in view of the pressure it brought to bear on the Government to adopt the severest measures against Italy, even to the | closing of the canal, any other course | would have been manifestly dishonest. | But while giving this reassurance to the country that Labor in power | could be trusted with the problem | of national defense, as it probably | could, and as, in the cast of M. Bluml | in France, it has shown that it can, | | its strategy is still discounted by the formidable Cripps and in a lesser de- | gree by such uncompromising pacifists as Lord Ponsonby. Cripps sees in rearmament nothing but a device | for buttressing up the tottering fab- ric of capitalism, and since his \mce‘ is still the most resounding one in | !he Labor movement, it stamps the opposmon in the public mind with | He is by‘ “rnr the best asset that the Conserva- tives have in the country, for the | more he talks the more he scares moderate opinion to the support of | the Baldwin government. Indeed, the problem for the Labor party is how to dissociate itself from this eloquent and extremely able col- league, who defies its authority and stamps its policy in his own revolu- | tionary mint. Until it does so it will | remain in opposition, and the govern- ment can make any blunder it likes without risk of supersession. (Copyright, 1938, by Consolidated Press.)

Red Cross enrollment must increase at the rate of 4,000 members a day it the current campaign goal of 65,000 is to be attained by midnight next Friday, the roll call deadline. Total enrollment rose 3,629 yester- day to within about 2,000 of the 1935 membership. At the end of the second week of the drive, the total stood at 41,185, Roll call solicitation chairmen congratulated Maj. Gen. Fred W. Boschen, chief of Army finance, for the record of his Government enroll- ment unit, which has amassed a total of 30.795 members, nearly 75 per cent of the aggregate for all divisions. Gen. Boschen said that while he needed memberships from 34 per cent of the 119,000 Government employes in the District to make his quota, he had found that the actual enrollment average of his unit was 46 per cent on a basis of reports from 7 of the 29 departments. Other division totals reported last night were: Financial, 2,337; utilities, 1,44 professional, 1,883; business, 2,024; residential, 889; booths, 797, and miscellaneous, 927. Campaign officials said they ex- pected the bulk of general business and utility memberships to come in this week. Many workérs in these groups have been waiting to com- plete their canvass before 1eporting, it was said. Volunteer workers in the Kalorama house-to-house solicitation group met last night at the home of Mrs. Harvey Wiley, 2345 Ashmead place, and re- ported encouraging progress.

Lincoln (Continued From First Page) when the deposits in this bank were only $29.000,000, its commercial loans were $17,000,000, which in itself tells a story. Roosevelt comes into Colorado to find that the Democratic party—in State politics—has not turned strongly to New Deal candidates as the Demo- crats have in two other States he has | Jjust visited, Minnesota and Nebraska. | The faction of the party supporting Roche, now Assistant Secretary of the | | Treasury, is not in the ascendancy. | 1t is the faction headed by Gov. Ed | C. Johnson which is on top. Johnson, although he is supporting Roosevelt, | has broken in the past with the ad- ministration, particularly over relief activities. It was Johnson who de- torial nomination in 1934 and who beat an ardent New Dealer, former Gov. William E. Sweet, for the sena- year. Senator Costigan declined to be year on account of ill health. He would have had a tough time, in any event, if he had tried for renomina- tion against Johnson, who is exceed- ingly popular throughout the State. Senator Costigan is not expected to return to the State to take part in the campaign. Not Straight-Ticket Voters. The strength which Johnson un- doubtedly has in Colorado may be a help to Roosevelt. However, Colorado voters are an independent lot. They have elected Democratic Governors for the last 10 years, while at the same time they have gone Republican in presidential elections, except in 1932, It seems clear that the Colorado people are inclined to vote Republican, THE OIL BURNER CHOICE OF THE NATION’S CAPITAL Hounhold A”Iwn:el in .I" NEW SHOW ROOM LOUGHBOROUGH OlL COMPANY 1022 17th Strect N.W.

In | 1932, when Roosevelt was carrying the | State by 61,000 votes, Johnson was elected Governor with a lead of 74,000 over his Republican opponent, which seems to bear this out. The ability of the Colorodan to split his ticket by the State convention, Republican nominees got together and reyised the document in certain particulars, elim- inating the endorsement of this old- age pension constitutional amendment. They figure that it will cost the State in the neighborhood of $20,000,000 & year—which they contend is a lot of money. Under the State would have to provide $45 for each citizen between 60 and 65 years of age, and $30 for each citizen from 65 on. The Federal Government, under the na- tional security act, will make up the other $15 & month for the citizens 65 and over. ‘The Republicans are making a great d2al of the administration’s reciprocal trade agreements with Canada and other nations, particularly in the stock-raising sections of the State, and it seems to be an effective issue. The cattle and sheep raisers believe they are not getting enough for their live stock. The Repyblicans are making a good deal, too, of a charge that 400 Colo- rado ranch families have been losing homesteads or parts of their lands, through an order issued by President Roosevelt against filing on public lands. The Republicans say that the administration has decided that these homesteaders cannot make a living on the ranches that have been yielding them and their families a living. Beet Growers Satisfied. The G. O. P. is worrying, however, over the sugar beet growers who ap- parently have been satisfied with the Costigan act and the treatment ac- corded them by the administration. I talked with an eminent church- man there who sums up the situation | by saying that the people who have | any money will vote for Landon and | those who are poor will vote for Roose- velt, generally speaking. He admitted that he himself was for Roosevelt. Whether his diagnosis of the situation is entirely correct is still a matter of some doubt. For example, not all of | the people on relief in this State are going to vote for Roosevelt; that goes particularly for that element on relief which is dubbed American to dictin- guish them from another group la- beled Mexican, Those inclined to leave Roosevelt take the position that | they have been on relief for a lonz‘ time, and that they see no future in it | | for them. The fact that so many persons are still on relief in this State, when farm- ing, stock raising, mininz and business $62,000,000 plus to Colorado for all kinds of relief. Labor Vote May Split. Organized labor in this State is for Roosevelt—but organized labor is rot 50 strong as in many other States, and the Republicans are counting on get- ting their share of the labor vote gen- erally. The Negro vote, which runs into several thousand in Denver, is not all for Roosevelt. The Republicans have placed a prominent colored leader on their ticket for the State Legislature, One thing that worries the Repub- licans is propaganda spread through the State by the Democrats to the ef- fect, that if Landon is clected, he will cut the price of gold and of silver. They do not like this. So they have obtained from John Hamilton, chair- man of the Republican National Com- mittee, a statement to the effect that Landon has no such intention. They hope also to have a statement from Landon himself. The Hamilton state- ment, which s just being put into cir- culation by the Republicans says: “Rumors to the effect Gov. Landon intends reducing the price of gold to | $20 absolutely without foundation. Re- publican platform specifically advo- cated taking away from the President | power to regulate value of money. This clearly means any change in gold price or gold content of the dollar would be made by Congress and not by | the President. Gov. Landon's tele- | gram to the Cleveland convention con- | tains nothing suggesting he contem- plates reducing the ‘price of gold.” ‘This gold rumor and the situation among the sugar beet people, the Re- publicans say, are their two chief wor- ries, and they hope to straighten them | out. Landon, as Governor of a neigh- | boring State, Kansas, has a certain ap- | peal to the voters. He spent his holi- | days here last Summer. Although he is not now expected to make another visit to Colorado before election, he probably could help himself by so| doing. Views on Majority Conflict. Republican leaders here figure they | will carry Colorado by approximately 30,000. The Democratic leaders are | more generous in their estimates, Tun- | ning Roosevelt's expected plurality as | high as 50,000 or only 11,000 less than his victory of 1932. Both sides say that there will be a big vote out, prob- | ably going as high 500,000, because ! of the great interest in the election, In Denver the Democrats have built up & strong organization. Theé Repub- licans, however, do not concede the cfly is going Democratic.: ‘kmke is on the ballot here. What Votes he gets will be drawn principally from Roosevelt, it is believed, although Lemke sentiment is not strong and his vote is expected to be small. ‘Today Colorado has four Democratie members of the House—the entire del= egation. The Republicans believe they have a real chance to pick up a seat in the second district, and a fair chance in the third. It seems certain, however, that the Democrats will elect ® Senator. The chances are that Johnson, in his race for the Senate, will run considerably ahead of Roose= velt in the balloting. Some of the Democrats say privately that Johne son’s lead may be as much as 36.000 votes. He has considerable Republican support, particularly among the busie ness people.
