The much-mooted question of
states rights ns nuninst thp nvrr.
centralization of government In
Washington which is lumped neatly
into the one word "bureaucracy"
is due for a thorough airing in the
coming political campaign.
The recent debate in the senate
over reconversion especially in the
contest over whether the federal
government should administer the
unemployment payments during the
chnnge-ovcr from war production to
civilian production is a good ex-
ample. There will be much sound nnd
fury much thundering in the index
on this subject. Little will be found
to hove been accomplished when the
dust settles. For in this question we
behold an interesting paradox. New
Dealers as well as Republicans left-
wingers as well as right-wingers de-
plore the growing centralization of
power in the federal government as
a threat to democracy. And yet all
Of them. WVlPn thrV Clt flmim tn lnnlr
at the acts admit privately that
there is little or no chance of check-
ing this trend.
The very groups which oppose the
tendency toward the creation of
more federal machinery and de-
nounce the bureaucrats the loudest
are insistent that enough of the
bureaucrats who handle their spe-
cial interests be spared whenever
the axe threatens to fall.
It is upon this littlo inconsistency
that President Roosevelt always
nangs nis reouuai whenever Sena-
tor Byrd and other critics of his lav-
ish government spending call for a
reduction of the government pay
roll.
Of course the war badly dis-
turbed the traditional democratic in-
stitution of checks and balances and
lifted private enterprise right out by
the hair and sat down in its place
with the brutal indifference which is
associated with Mars. The federal
government today finds itself doing
business on a scale larger than all
peacetime enterprise put together.
Some of these activities are bound
to stick when normal times finally
return but the trend toward
bureaucracy started even before
that.
According to Alfred Bingham who
has written a book called "The
Practice of IdAlism ." wWnh r.
ought to read whether you can agree
With it Or nnt. VlO tronrl fnnrar
bureaucracy is due largely to two
of five revolutions which he says
are going on now.
Bingham says that "revolution re-
sults from the pent-up pressure of
delayed social change." He believes
that like water-power it can
"either sweep in a destructive flood
over peaceful cities and farms" or
it can be controlled and turned to
beneficial use.
'Revolt of Common Man'
Encourages Bureaucracy
The first of the revolutions he
names and one of those which
has encouraged bureaucracy and jn-
creosea me demands on the fed-
eral government's manpower is the
"revolt of the common man." Of
course that revolt has been going
on lustily with the start it got at the
barricades in Paris and the events
which occurred between Lexington
and Yorktown but the depression of
1929 moved it ahead quite a peg in
this country to say nothing of what
happened after World War I all over
the world including the birth of
communism fascism and all their
freak off-shoots.
Bingham says it was the call of
;he common man for social and eco-
nomic security which was one of the
two chie.causes of the growing cen-
tralization of government. He cites
as two examples the labor group
which demanded that their interests
be looked after and the farmers.
(The labor department which had
been a part of the department of
commerce since 1903 was created
a separate unit in 1913.) Bingham
says that the vast organization un-
der the department of agriculture
wap the result of the insistence by
farmers that agriculture be recog-
nized and assisted.
The second revolution the de-
mands of which brought about addi-
tional federal activity according to
BRIEFS
More bituminous rn.ll la hninn -
duced for World War II than was
mined during World War I with ap-
proximately one-third fewer miners.
i '
In spite of difficulties imposed by
battle conditions the Red Crocs has
Increased oy 10 per cent Jhe mes-
sages delivered from servicemen in
staging and combat 2oes to their
famlU'js.
Bingham was the technical revo-
lution another name for the indus-
trial revolution which has made
mass production and all the won-
ders of the machine age possible.
Billion-dollar corporations required
some government control; various
industries notably those producing
and using the automobile and the
airplane called for highway and sky-
way encouragement regulation and
guidance. The huge department of
commerce with its many activities
conducted to aid business became
a separate entity in 1903 and has
grown steadily since.
And right here we might assert
that the common man and if you
win tne Jess common man worker
farmer artisan executive or entre-
preneur although he joins merrily
in the chorus denouncing the
bureaucrats in general doesn't want
the particular bureaucrat who is
ready to help his particular inter-
est disturbed. If he does not
actually demand the services of
such a bureaucrat he may create a
situation which his competitor or
those who may become his victim
insist must be controlled by the gov-
ernment. Of course. Mr. Binehnm's niiswpr
to all this is that a growing ex-
pansion of governmental powers is
all right so long as it is self-government.
Without debating that ques-
tion let's see exactly how badly the
bureaucrat is really hated.
But you will find that there are
bureaucrats and bureaucrats.
You will find no complaint about
the civil servant who carries out the
decrees of the people's duly elected
representatives provided those de-
crees have been sponsored not to
sav lnhhiprl hrnimVi xnnnran. 4-
said complainant's request.
Let us consider the following state-
ment concerning one bureau pre-
sumably administered if I read my
Webster aright by bureaucrats:
'-'Federal aid in "building and
maintaining highways as carried
out under Republican administra-
tions and since continued is a sound
and comparatively harmonious pro-
gram. ..."
GOP Has Some Kind
Words for Bureaus
"Federal responsibility (regard-
ing agriculture) should be directed
to such economic stabilization
through disposition of surnlnsps ns.
surance of fair market prices. . . ."
Who says this? The- 26 Republican
governors assembled in St. Louis
early this month to back Mr.
Dewey's presidential campaign.
They represented we opine both
the "common man" and likewise
the "uncommon man."
And if you want further support
for Mr. Bingham's thesis that the
leaders in the world of technology
the men who own the machines and
supervise their operation like some
of the bureaucrats note the state-
ment from authentic sources that
after the war industry is going to
encourage the perpetuation of some
Of the functions of thn OPA nnrl fVir.
WPB because it is thought they can
neip siamnze industry.
On the other side of the medal
again just to preserve a nice bal-
ance what about the GI Bill of
Rights? That law nuts 5ntn tVi
hands of the federal government
the administration of the greatest
welfare program ever framed. I
take it that high low and middle
are willing to pay for the bureau-
crats to run this program out of
the federal treasury. It was passed
unanimously by congress.
oo 11 goes.
We can boil down the debate in
congress over unemployment insur-
ance and the effort to put the ad-
ministration of the payments into
the hands of the states into a much
more immediate and practical ques-
tion than the broad principle of
states rights centralization of gov-
ernment or the growth of bureauc-
racy. It is a simple matter here of
whether the administration (any
administration) handing out the ben-
efits directly sets up the office
holders who do the handing out
or whether the state governments
(state political machines) assume
these gracious functions. In other
words who gets the political sup-
port in return?
I'm sorry but that's the way it is.
