ANTI-ROOSEVELT RADICALS
Radicalism always accompanies the distress set up by a fal-
tering economic system, even though said economic system begins
bracing itself before it falls to the ground.
Such is the situation in America today.
Should a person take everything handed him by the New Deal
without first giving it a test—just like a babe takes Castor Oil from
a spoon in the hand of his mother—then, we think something is
wrong. He is in one of two classifications. He is hired or expects to
get hired by the government or he doesn't think for himself.
Economic condition of the people of this land, a3 a whole, is
definitely on the upgrade. Enough automobiles have been ordered
to keep hundreds of thousands of men in employment for a solid
year. That is something to consider. Farmers, as a whole, are in
better condition, in spite of what former Congressman George B.
Terrell, outspoken opponent of the New Deal, has to say. There
are farmers who are not in better condition, but most of these, we
must admit, wouldn't be in very good economic position should they
suddenly be transported to the glorious days of early 1929 and 1928.
But, politics have to rage. Without politics, there would be
many a man on the relief roll who is today behind a glass-topped
desk. There must be politics to keep down too much governing on
the part of any party. There must be those opponents of any system
of government in ortfer to hold a check over their heads.
When Franklin D. Roosevelt was elected president by a wild
majority, the country was a terrible condition in every way; wo were
*\t the crossroads. It was the worst situation, if ou will remember,
that this country has faced since the World War. Banks over the
land were closing every day—almost every hour—but that far-
sighted leader immediately ordered doors closed at every national
bank and averted the greatest money panic of history. His farm
measures, the NRA, and the other phases of the New Deal—many
of them too idealistic for anything but a Utopia—were rushed
through congress. No one protested but many from all parties praised
him as the greatest president since Abraham Lincoln.
Today—almost three years since he took office—here is_the
situation, taken froirl an unbias point of view: The country is defi-
nitely "on the road" to recovery. Several parts of the New Deal
have been discarded, but the president said in the beginning that
it was experiment. And, now, as we are "pulling out," politicians
have begun to talk.
Recently Joe Bailey Humpreys, city attorney of Crockett and
bitter foe of the New Deal, announced a platform for the so-called
States' Rights Democrats who will seek to nu'-iinate someone be-
sides Roosevelt. Let us tear it to pieces.
"We demand that the constitutional rights and powers of the
states be preserved in full force and effect; the New Deal notwith-
standing," the first article says. The constitution is a hallowed thing
in these United States, state rights are to be considered, but, my
dear Mr. Humphreys, you and some of your lawyer friends should
remember that it WAS written by the hand of man and not divinely
inspired. What kick did these opponents give when congress and
President Woodrow Wilson inflicted wartime measures. The present
depression has been harder to whip than was the Kaiser.
"We demand a reduction in governmental expenditures with
fewer and smaller appropriations." There we agree. In fact, we
would at a moment's notice cut off all relief rolls and tell the peo-
ple to go to work for a change.
We also would reduce the existing tariff wails and personally,
we believe that is coming soon, even before Humphreys' anti-New
Deal crowd begins functioning properly.
A lot of hot air by a bunch of lawyer politicians who might
gain a little ground for their personal glory is what one may expect
when the campaign is begun to get this idea over. They will be here
for a mass meeting with Mr. Humphreys' sound truck soon, J. J.
Pike, outspoken farmer foe of the Triple-A. said here Monday. Be
on the look-out.
