Roosevelt's rst term. of office, there was constant debate ag-to whether re- lief and fecovery. should precede reform. ‘The debate continues to- day, as the nation again faces a severe economic flop, and officials continue to study its causes, and, by investigation and legislation, to find out why it happened and how it can be prevented in the future. In 1938, we find some twelve million persons totally unemploy- @d and many more have only part-time employment. Business activity has slumped almost to where it was in 1933.*Superficial- ly, the condition resembles 1933, buf actually there is a vast differ- ence. Then, private: charitable urces and the funds of state local communities-were prac- tically exhausted. There had been no acceptance by the Fed- éfal Government of its responsi- bility in providing relief for the unemployed. ment Trends Continued unemployment, in’ Spite of all that has been done, is explained, in part, by basic eco- nomic conditions. According to the Public Affairs Committee, of- ‘ficial statistics shows that there were only three-fourths as many »jobs in industry in 1936 as in 1920, although population in- creased twenty percent in the in- terval. {2Since 1929, employment in in- dustry has decreased one-fifth. In addition, there has been retrench- ment on many. sides, throwing | thousands of professional and white collar men out of work, andlarge numbers of farmers, | small tradesmen and proprietors | have been forced into bankrup' HI where they are unable to sup) ; themselves in their usual occupa*! tions. The Spending Policy 1 . While the spending policies. of the Administration from 1633 through 1936 had a great deal to do with the measure of recovery which followed, critics point out that once the purchasing power, of the Government wa. checked, the recovery movemeni ceased. Advocates of spending, “owever, declare that it stopped . too “abruptly”, was pushed too high by the payment of the soldiers’ bonus which the President oppos- ed, and that the ground gained ‘was thrown away by over-pro- duction and the control of prices in 1987 when the Government} was trying to step out of the pic- ture gradually, Road to Recovery? Anti-New Dealers insist that permanent recovery can be ha only through the activity of priv- ate industry and assert ‘that a change in Administration or the adoption of new policies by the present Administrationy<- would point the way toward prosperity. | ae continually “démand a . eq attitude” onthe patt’aé,, the President, a real “breathing | spell” and the restoration of “con- fidence”.

Mayo, elder of ment since 1933 behind the cry “reeovery before reform”. It was repeatedly asserted that the nation’s tax laws were largely responsible for the upset in busi- Congress was told by many busine it would revise drastically the tax laws, recovery would begin. How- ever, the congressional revision of the tax laws, as repeatedly sug- gested, has been followed by nothing to indicate that this was the formula for curing the trou- bles of American business. Reform Barriers The idea that the President, in pressing his reforms, has done so at the cost of recovery is another widely advanced theory for busi- ness’ troubles. For this reason, there have been repeated efforts to persuade the President to “stimulate confidence”. This, it is said, is to be accomplished by his giving up radical or experimental measures, taking the Government out of competition with business, and otherwise gviing private ini tiative a free hand. The reader may have asked himself the ques-)' tion, whether, in fact, there is basis for the belief that the Presi- dent stands between the nation {and recovery. Recently, Erwin D. Canham, Washington newspaper writer, compared the industrial curve of the past few years, with what might be called the New Deal curve. He finds that the stock market began going up, business production and national income increased, and unemployment started to drop early in 1935 and continued until August, 1937. Yet he reports, in 1935, Congress was generally obedient to the Presi- dent and Mr. Roosevelt was in an experimental mood. Record Upsets Charge Even the holding company bill, with its death-sentence ‘Clause, did, not-stop the rise in 1935. Con- continued its “leftist” work but the markét and thé ‘national income increased in 1936, al- though the President was pursu- ing bold policies.in the, midst of a’ national political. campaign. Re- covery had reached its pinnacle in 1937, at the time that the Presi- dent was launching his drive on the Supreme Court and urging his executive reorganization plan. The record goes further. It shows that when the President was defeated on his court bill, re- covery and the market broke, too. Last Autumn, when the special session revealed a Congress some- what independent of the Presi- dent, there were heavy drops in the industrial index. The recent session, with defeats and victories for the President interspersed, has witnessed continued economic de- cline. Thus, it appears that some factor other than the President's policies underlies the present eco- nomic situation.
