By ERIK McKINLEY ERIKSSON Associate Professor of History, University of Southern California iu 1 One of the avowed objectives of the New Dea! is reform. To many it ap- pears as its most important aim This raises a fair question. There are those who believe that it 1s wiser now to be more concerned with attainment of recovery than 4 2 with making over American institutions.

Every school child 1s | familiar with President Jackson's war on the Second Bank of the | United States, about @ century ago. | In the post-Civil War period reform- j ers were rampant This was the pe- | tied of Henry George who sought to reform society through the single tax. In 1888 Edward Bellamy published his book, “Looking Backward.” pic- turing an ideal industrial state in which poverty and crime would be unknown. Even today this book 1s widely circulated. It has doubtless | been a source of inspiration to many } more modern reformers Beginning in 1872 there appeared in the political arena a group of minor parties, each with its particu- lar grievances against the existing order and each with its own nostrums a radio message received from the! Coast Guard Cutter Saukee at Coast Guard Headquarters. The damage, reports the Saukee, is mainly confined to the homes of natives, with six injured and seven deaths. The injured are convalescing. The hotel at Bimini is badly damaged and many homes completély demolished.

As a result, direct and indirect, of their agitation, a con- siderable body of reform laws was enacted by local and state govern- ments as well as by the national gov- ernment. Nor should one ignore the reform program advocated by the late Theo- dore Roosevelt in his program of New j Nationalism. It is apparent that many ot the reforms advocated by the first Roosevelt in this program and in the Progressive party platform of 1912 have been put into effect in recent years. The program of President Wilson whieh was put into effect to a large degree during his first term has also served as a precedent for the present reformers. Reformers are a persistent group, continuing from one generation to another, Those of the Dang! day have, vith great shrew taken advantage of the psychological state of mind produced by the depression and have succeeded im going so much further than their predecessors that some of the wiser among them have felt that there is danger of early re- action against the whole program.
