The mere publication of a letter to the editor does not imply any assent to the views expressed, While banks may be open through- out the land the banking business isn’t what it used to be; many of them make no loans, much to the bereavement of the berrewing fraternity. The Audiencia of Havana handed down a decision that the former officers imprisoned after the battle of the National Hotel in October be released on parole. Despite the fact that this isthe court of highest resort, Colonel Fulgencio Batista, ehief of staff, ignores its mandate. THE NRA AND “LITTLE-BUSINESS” (Sanford Herald); .. From the very beginging‘of the NRA drive, the principal hardship of what was generally conceived to be a most magnani- mous and humanitarian movement, has fallen upon the small business. man. , Most of the big industries enjoyed huge surplus- es in cash and other liquid assets upor which they could call to provide for in- creased costs under the codes. Most small business were actually on the verge of bankruptey and, already living from hand to mouth, could meet increased payrollls only by allowing legitimate bills to go un- paid. That this condition, which is rapidly approaching an acute stage with many a small enterprise, is coming to the attention of the administration, is revealed by the decision of General Johnson to set up a special board to deal exclusively with the problems of the small business men. It would be this board’s obligation to see that the “tittle fellow” in business is not driven out of the economic picture by codes which must fit alike the big industries of the coun- try. “Senator Borah (Rep.), of Idaho, has written a letter, not yet made public, call- ing attention to the situation,” the United States News declares: ‘He publicly fa- vors rescinding the action by which con- gress gave to big industries the right to or- ganize outside the anti-trust laws for pro- duetion control and price maintenance. Senator Nye (Rep.), of North Dakota, also has shown concern over the plight of the smaller-town business man, “To meet this situation, General John- son on December 26, said that he ‘would like to have a board and like it to have ac- cess to anything it wanted to see here, and ° Peeorecscenesers® Daily Cross-word Puzzle COC SO SSS TEC SC ESESOTERCESLESeeCCETECEDHETSSCRSE aAcROSsS 1, Vocal sole 5.

The proper way to prevent the ex- eesses of such a drastie revolution is to ad- just matters before the present order be- comes anathema to millions of people. That this was what was rapidly underway in the nation last year at this time is acknowl- edged by practically every student, many ef whom candidly admit that the United States seemed to be on the verge of a revolution of the masses, including the farmers, one year ago. The higher men climb, the longer their working day. And any young man with a streak of idleness in.him may bet- ter make up his mind at the beginning that medioerity will be his lot. Without im- mense, sustained effort, he will not climb high. And even though fortune or chance were to lift him high, he would not stay there. For to keep at the top is harder almost than to get there. There are no office hours for leaders—Cardinal Gib- bons.
