IT'S THE PEOPLE'S MONEY
uGLY charges of relief-fund pressure
in Pennsylvania and Florida pri-
mary contests are now being investi-
gated by order of Aubrey Williams as-
sistant WPA director In Washington
The promptness of Mr Williams' action
Is In keeping with the record of WPA
at the top In attempting to prevent
political use of the vast Government
funds that are distributed throughout
the country In so far as WPA general
headquarters in Washington are con-
cerned we believe the history of the
whole operation has been one of good
intent
But in view of the tremendous spread
of the WPA expenditures administered
as they necessarily must be by all sorts
of men we think that restraint from
Washington no matter how well-intentioned
cannot be sufficient We see re-
currences of such charges with more
and more frequency For example the
case of "Form 100" entitled "Applica-
tion for endorsement by Kalamazoo
Mich county Democratic committee"
given out to those seeking relief jobs
containing questions like these:
"Did you vote In the primary of Sep-
tember 1937? Democratic? Republican?"
"Did you vote in the primary of Sep-
tember 1934? Democratic? Republican?"
"Are you a member of any Democratic
organization or club? Where?"
"Did you vote in the election of No-
vember 1934?"
"Have you contributed to any Demo-
cratic organization in Kalamazoo Coun-
ty? To whom? How much since Aug
1 1932?"
Activities of local political organiza-
tions having influence over the routing
of tremendous sums of money are bound
to lean toward the spoils system
Accordingly we thin tr that direct
legislation on the question along the
line of that suggested by Rep Bruce
Barton of New York is long overdue
Mr Barton would have an amend-
ment to the Corrupt Practices Act mak-
ing it a penitentiary offense for any
official in charge of the distribution
of Government funds to influence the
political beliefs or actions of a recip-
ient He likens the proposal to the pro-
vision in the Wagner Act making it
Illegal for an employer to try In any
way to influence the opinions of an
employe Since the United States Gov-
ernment is the biggest employer of all
we think the analogy perfect And we
believe that such a statute would put
the burden of proof where it belongs
and instead of investigation after the
fact would leave the responsibility of
thci3 who administer the funds to be
duly cautious "before the fact" or suf-
fer the penalty
We believe what Mr Barton says is
the truth:
"This is not a partisan issue it
reaches to the very roots of our de-
mocracy If a voter on the payrolls of
the WPA and the PWA can be told
how to vote if a corporation receiving
Government orders must take political
orders as well then we have passed out
of the state of free democracy and are
entering Into the 'bread and circuses'
era which preceded the decline of
Rome"
Expenditures of taxpayers' money are
too far-flung for any administration at
general headquarters no matter how
honest and sincere and well-intentioned
to prevent misuse unless aided
by some law with teeth in it such as
the one Mr Barton has proposed
Daylight saving doesn't solve ev-
erything Someone should get busy
and invent a clock that will delay
until 7 o'clock the sounding of a 6
o'clock alarm
LEOPOLD RADGOWSKY
P ERRY citizens voted Leopold Radgow-
sky an alien their most useful citi-
zen He merited the honor for he
wrought wonders in arousing musical
Interest among the people
Mr Radgowsky who died last week
was once leader of the Russian czar's
band He had led music in the European
capitals but it is likely he found his
greatest happiness in the prairie county
seat that was his last home
There were reasons why he did not
mind his exile but found it good There
was American freedom and there were
friendly people who accepted the wan-
derer with kindness and enthusiasm
Because he felt himself a fugitive from
this later Russia perhaps and partly
from Inherent modesty he shunned the
spotlight of publicity his talents and dis-
tinctions might have claimed But Perry
people knew him well and loved him
dearly and the whole state regrets his
passing
News dispatches tell of the invent-
ing of a baseball game which blind
men can play easily This should

obsertakd behind the plate feel per

FOR DECENT LIVING
STANDARDS
WE have read predictions that the
" contest over the wage-hour bill will
turn Into another "bloody shirt" battle
between the North and the South We
hope those prophesies will prove untrue
For It would be unfortunate to res-
urrect the bitterness of the Civil War
and the reconstruction to confuse what
primarily is an economic and social
problem The putting of a floor under
wages and a ceiling on hours of em-
ployment is an objective long sought
by progressive business and labor forces
And if workable legislation is enacted
all sections of the countr y and all
classes of people should benefit
The original bill was killed because
a lot of extraneous controversies aris-
ing out of the method which the Ad-
ministration chose Before the final
voting the paramount issue had become
not the prescribing of labor standards
but whether Congress was to abandon
Its legislative duties and responsibilities
to an executive bureaucracy Congress
decided to hold onto its prerogatives
The new bill which the House labor
committee has drafted proposes that
Congress now exercise Its prerogatives—
that It write into law c'efinite wage
minima and hours maxima escalating
from $11 for a 44-hour week in the
first year to $16 for a 40-hour week
after three years The debate there-
fore should revolve around whether the
25-cents-an-hour starter and the 40-
cents-an-hour goal is too much or not
enough whether the escalation is too
fast or too slow These are questions of
fact and policy and should be discussed
calmly and determined on merit with-
out sectional or partisan heat Both
the Republican and Democratic parties
have endorsed the principle of fixing
wage and hour standards and the new
bill we think offers a good and simple
method of acting in line with that prin-
ciple As we have said previously we do not
consider the standards prescribed by
the labor committee's bill excessive Yet
under the circumstances they probably
are as high as there is any reasonable
chance of achieving
We hope Congress will proceed with-
out too muchdelay to a determination
of all the factors involved and that
legislation will be enacted before ad-
journment of the current session As
an economic matter we think that the
Increased purchasing power which this
legislation would give to lower-paid
workers and its stabilizing influence on
competitive interstate industries would
do much to aid the country in pulling
out of the current depression
And from the humanitarian angle we
like very much a statement which Sen-
ator Borah of Idaho made in the course
of debate on the original wage-hour
bill He opposed that measure because
of its bureaucratic setup He demanded
that Congress itself determine wage
standards which is what the new bill
undertakes-to do Senator Borah's sug-
gestion for a starter was 30 cents an
hour He said:
"I would abolish a wage scale below
a decent standard of living just as I
would abolish slavery And if that dis-
turbs business it would be the price we
pay for good citizens"

JUNIOR LIVESTOCK SHOW
A PPARENTLY the rift between exhib-
itors and the Chamber of Commerce
of Oklahoma City that threatened to
end the Junior Livestock Show here
has been smoothed over Members of
the 4-H Clubs and the Future Farmers
of America have been assured better
prices for prize animals and on that
basis leaders of those important groups
will continue to foster the show
It Is important that Oklahoma should
develop its livestock Industry This
state should produce its own meat sup-
ply and some for export It should
produce better livestock as well as
more and the Junior Livestock Show
works in that direction
But the youthful farmers of tomor-
row cannot afford to prepare animals
for show purposes at a loss Some of
them did this year and it should not
happen again
At the rate the Japanese-Chinese
struggle is progressing it should
last as long as some of those early
American bare-fist prizefights
WAS IT NOT?
'MARCH was a tough month for the
kangaroo rats and other rodent
pests in New Mexico" announced an ar-
ticle Just received from one of the busy
press agents of the Interior Department
Secretary Ickes' men It appears dis-
tributed enough strychnine bait to kill
the kangaroo rats etc on 130000 acres
of grazing land
Since learned Government experts
estimate that 80 kangaroo rats will eat
as much forage as a 750-pound cow or
three sheep the news from the Interior
Department Is good news And yet the
way the press agent starts off his story
Inspires a certain amount of sympathy
for the deceased March was a tough
month for practically everybody
' $4500000000
A BOUT $4500000000 all told is what
A-L the President proposes to have the
Government lend and spend in the new
pump-priming effort
How much money is that? Such a sum
Is difficult to visualize
But imagine all the sweat and all the
back-breaking toil that went into the
production of all the bales of cotton
grown in the United States in 1932 1933
1934 1935 1936 and 1937
The Department of Agriculture has
just announced that the total income
of cotton farmers from cotton and cot-
tonseed for these six years was $4381-
734000
Relief
Comments of
Raymond Clapper
W ASHINGTON April 25—The Ad-
ministration's decision to in-
vestigate the handling of WPA ex-
penditures in Pennsylvania and
Florida Is a healthy development It
would be a good thing if the in-
quiry could cover PWA as well
Pennsylvania is a particularly
good place to start Thanks to the
quarrel over the loot which Demo-
crats there are waging in their pri-
mary fight there is enough evi-
dence to warrant such an admin-
istrative inquiry Secretary Ickes
has admitted—it had to be dragged
out of him—that Matt McCloskey
the Philadelphia contractor who has
loaned money to Governor Earle and
who has shared in the Public-Works
construction gravy consulted with
PWA officials over some of the work
to be done There have been charges
which do not sound fantastic that
Senator Guffey's men have con-
trolled the okays for WPA relief
jobs
These charges do not reflect upon
federal officials WPA policy is to
take relief workers only when they
have been certified by local relief
authorities the theory being that
the community relief agency is in
the best position to check appli-
cants for WPA jobs Each 1ocality
sets its own standards
I T may not be practicable nor de-
sirable for federal agencies to
assume complete control of all op-
erations But as huge sums of fed-
eral money are poured into the
states it does not seem sound prac-
tice either for the Federal Govern-
ment to shut its eyes to abuse of
these funds and to let local poli-
ticians racketeer
The Social Security Board recent-
ly demonstrated the necessity of
greater check on the fate which be-
falls federal funds when they reach
local authorities Looking into the
administration of old-age pensions
in Oklahoma the board found in-
excusable conditions — padding of
the rolls carrying of undeserving
Loans
WASHINGTON April 25 — How
" much good is going to be done
by Government loans to business
through RFC and PWA? The pros-
pect is not bright Commercial
banks are bursting with money to
lend The chances to lend it with
reasonable safety are so few that
the banks' agents are scouring the
country for such opportunities with
little success
Of course no bank will loan on
what seems to be a doubt that the
money will ever be repaid But
neither should the Government do
that—and as long as Jesse Jones is
sitting on any part of the lid it
won't I doubt if Harold Ickes will
make any soft loans either
Business prospects are so poorly
defined that people are not inclined
to borrow any more than to lend
That is the whole trouble with the
credit-inflation idea Its theory is
that all you have to do to activate
business is to provide an abundance
of credit at very low rates of in-
terest We have had that for years
It needs one other element to make
it work—confidence in the future
When you have that of course the
theory is bound to work—the more
credit and the lower the rate the
more initiatives can be released and
the quicker business will boom
But if there isn't confidence
mountains of cheap credit are just
about as useful as more ice for the
Arctic It is like piling up beef-
steaks before a man with lockjaw
iF there were that confidence now
A the Government wouldn't have
to loan any money because there
are plenty of banks with an abun-
dance of money to do that
There is an exception to all this
In one particular field It is not
the function of banks to lend money
that can only be repaid in from
3 to 5 years The Government can
fill a need in that field if it can
find any borrowers

NEW YORK April 25—Franklin D
Roosevelt is extremely skillful in
impromptu remarks and I think
that he has seldom been more
felicitous than in his brief discourse
to the Daughters of the American
Revolution I hope the text he fur-
nished is graven in the heart of
every lady who heard him
"Remember always that all of us
and you and I especially" said the
President "are descended from Im-
migrants and revolutionists"
It was well put but one may
doubt that the Daughters will re-
member The organization has
spent a great many years in teach-
ing its members to forget their rad-
ical and humble forebears By now
they seem to believe that there were
plush carpets at Valley Forge and
that the embattled farmers of Con-
cord rose to protest against the
New Deal
y HAVE always had a great interest
in the D A R because as a
manly lad of 9 or 10 I used to sit
outside the door and eavesdrop on
the discussions of the New York
Chapter The Daughters met at our
house once a year Practically ev-
erybody met at our house
And so the great day at home
was the annual gathering of the
Daughters to elect local officers My
mother invariably ran for first vice-
president but unfortunately she
never made it Progressively she
put more effort into her campaign

clave all of us children had to help

evidence and cut off federal pay-
ments until such time as it should
obtain satisfactory assurances that

That kind of checkup will be in-

teering T

opposition charge that the new pro-
posed relief and recovery funds are
to be used for political purposes
Republican National Chairman John
Hamilton said the new pump-priming
program was in reality a "poll
priming" program Now Republi-
cans are calling It a "primary
pumping" program the suggestion
being that the money will be used
to throw public works and WPA fa-
vors to Democratic primary candi-
dates favored by the Administration
and that such aid and comfort will
be denied to Democrats who have
voted against Roosevelt policies
Certainly if the Federal Govern-
ment is going to throw large chunks
of money around over the country
and there will be a good deal of
this for many years to come then
the only way to avoid demoraliza-
tion of public standards will be to
Insist on rooting politics out of It
An Englishman told me that several
of his close friends who had been
In parliament for years had never
had a request for a job from a con-
stituent That couldn't happen here
But we shall have to make some
approach to that standard in our
handling of federal funds If we are
to avoid corrupting political organ-
izations all over the country on a
scale never before known
Comments of
Hugh S Johnson
and things were as they used to
be you would expect to get your
money in possibly all of four ways
For your factory buildings which
can take years to pay for them-
selves you would get a part (say 60
per cent) by selling long-term mort-
gage bonds For your machinery
which will wear out and have to
pay for itself sooner you would get
a part either by short-term debentures-3
to 5 years of preferred
stock For your inventories of ma
terials and supplies and the credits
you grant customers which turn-
over in a few months or a year you
would count on bank loans to carry
their peak loads For all the rest
of the money to pay for the basic
inventory and the equity in plant
or machinery you would sell com-
mon stock
THIS is the traditional and proved
A way to get a business started
There is practically no other way
Just now due to too much fear
and caution three of these ap-
proaches are practically out It is
almost impossible to sell common or
preferred stocks bonds or deben-
tures to start new enterprises That
Is both a cause and an effect of
our business paralysis The only
open financial door is bank credits
The Government's action may add
some credits In the intermediate
field for 3 to 5 years and provide
for some installation of machinery
or even help very much to bring it
back
Only one thing will do that—a
restoration of confidence to re-
create active financing in all four of
the fields just discussed That seems
less likely every day The rumor
around this town is that for this
campaign the President is going to
abandon his long held position
"slightly left of center" and ride
hell-for-leather toward the ruddy
left No restored confidence lies
In that direction It looks like a
'bloody war and a sickly season

I do not think the Daughters had
anything personal against my moth-
er As an amateur reporter I
snooped around and never un-
earthed any whispering campaign
The trouble was with the ancestor
through whom we qualified for ad-

that he was a wrong guy although

slid into office with no claim
higher than that of a corporal or

themselves But when my mother's
name was placed In nomination and
she was Identified as the great
granddaughter of Gen Stirling the
silence was so Intense that you could
hear an eyebrow lift
IT seems that Gen Stirling whose
A proud blood courses or rather
ambles through my veins led the
most famous retreat in American
history He was on a horse and had
every six-furlong record shattered
when he ran into George lArashing-

But my mother took her defeats
In good part She may have been
down but she was never out Ad-
dressing herself to the successful
rival she would ask sweetly "Will
you have cream or lemon
dear?" And whatever the newly

a good strong shot of lemon
I wish I could have been of some

A WONIAN'S
VIEWPOINT
T CANT imagine how any woman gets along with-
I out a daughter It's a constant blow to your
vanity of course living with a charming young thing
who is said to resemble her mother Every time you
see her—smooth skin sparkling eyes under grave
brows and the sweetest mouth in the world—you
take heart fancying that your own face and form
must be faintly similar One look into the mirror
shatters the illusion How is it possible for two per-
sons to be so much alike and yet so different? The
highlights of youth have left this middle-aged face
but isn't it wonderful to see them sitting across the
table every night at dinner?
A girl in the house is always a joy Very little
ones are the darlingest beings on earth gangling
brats loping ungracefully about the place bent upon
mischief you feel the queer neutral creatures may
be fixtures in the family Then overnight your
changeling becomes a princess fresh as a dewy
rose and gradually the feminine tie between you and
her tautens and grows strong
It's a miracle really The boys have a way of
getting around you They are always and forever
Letters From The Oklahoma News Readers
Opposition
Editor of The News:
"And he went down to Jerusalem
and fell among thieves"
Many a voter in Oklahoma is
thinking along those very lines to-
day while rummating about the
congressman sent down to Wash-
ington a congressman wholeheart-
edly pledged to the New Deal and
to follow in the footsteps of "that
peerless leader Franklin Delano
Roosevelt"
A certain "yubber stamp" por-
tion of Congress has for its battle
cry "Anything Roosevelt is for I'm
against" And the embittered news
commentators are adamant in fol-
lowing this slogan These rule or
ruin groups were no more sincere
In their opposition to the reorgan-
ization bill than to any other of the
many Roosevelt innovations The
very fact that these known enemies
of the Administration were so set
against this bill should have warned
those who professed to be in sym-
pathy with the New Deal that
there was a nigger in the woodpile
The facts are that the reorgan-
ization bill is nothing new Prac-
tically the identical plan has been
put forth by many presidents The
last three platforms of both par-
ties have promised this reorganiza-
tion of the executive department
Empty words The house retains
Its pap patronage and plums But
at what a cost will be reckoned
only at election time
There certainly must be some
good somewhere in the New Deal
Maybe the voters are inclined to
disagree with those who find noth-
ing but evil maybe the evil exists

please write plainly and on
one side of the paper only
and confine them to 200
words Letters should be
signed though only initials
Will be used if requested
No letter will be returned
only as legitimate interference with
plundering profiteering and preda-
ciousness Possibly it is best that Congress
now adjourn and the members
hatten nomeward to mend their
fences And do some little explain-
ing There's going to be a lot of
explaining to do especially by those
who were elected on false premises
And we're sorry Sorry because
certain of these backsliders gave
promise of a wonderful future a
future that leads to high places
But lending aid and comfort to
the enemy is going to wreck havoc
with certain promising careers

CONCERNING
A DAUGHTER
your babies and your strongest urge is to pet and
pamper them even after they have babies of their
own
You are also surprised very frequently to find
yourself demanding impossible things of your girl
It takes a deal of mental jogging to remind you
of her youth Why she's hardly more than a child
a child of whom you are asking mature judgment
and wisdom
Sometimes this daughter of yours will seem a
stranger haughty remote when a lightning flash
of understanding will come which creates a feeling
of sisterhood between you the sensation of com-
plete unity
Mothers of sons are often overcome with the
thought: 'Here is a man I have made" That is
a moment for profoundest pride But how describe
what one feels looking into the serious eyes of a
girl child a being created wholly in your image?
It's a mystery deep frightening beautiful Some
day we shall be women together you tell your
heart and if I fail her not she will understand
and love me as no other can and when I am old
she may be my friend and protector
One of his books to my knowledge
was used as a textbook I don't
know of any relatives in Lawrence
County Missouri
E F Comegys—Am glad that you
I enjoyed Hocus Focus and will an-
swer your questions to the best of
my ability We are selling the book
rights to a New York publishing
company and it is my understand-
ing that it is to be on the market
I in the early fall As we get a flat
rate and royalties can't say what
the price will be
Thanking you all who have taken
an interest in my narrative as I
have shown in every hamlet city
village and hog trail in Oklahoma
I would enjoy talking to you as I
am a much better talker than writ-
er Talk was my stock in trade

THE BETTER SIDE
What's the use complaining
When things sometime go wrong?
We may as well be cheerful
And hum a merry song
We may expect some sorrow
To ol'en come our way
But let's not get discouraged
And grumble all the day
We'll find it just as easy
To be cheerful and true
To love and help our neighbors
In all we t ay and do
God loves the man who's honest
Who oft takes time to pray
He loves the man who's cheerful—
Who lays his grumbling away

TRANSIT
You were just a passing fancy
Little was the part you played
As the shadows of a winged bird
Across the grass is made
There were pathos at our parting
This I will not dare deny
But that you touched my imnost
heart
Till death I do decry
Love was a gay deceiving rascal
Used us in his game of Chess
When we tore his bonds asunder
Which of' us my dear waa
blessed?
