What then? Only God knows. It is very certain that business and industry cannot, by any possibly stretch, under present conditions, take up the uncmplny ment slack, and states cannot, by themselves, provide for the needy without complet ely bankrupting themselves. A very serious situation will loom, a situation which demands that something different be done which looks to a permanent solution.

Ve sincerely trust that much good will come from their efforts and that they will leave the state something better than a legacy of new debts, new bureaus and new departments. Let them try to find some fundamental remedies. Progress Administrator F. CL Harrington. The implication: That President Roosevelt's request for an $875,000,000 deficiency appropriation to carry WPA until the next fiscal year starts July 1, Is too high, since Former WPA Administrator Harry Hopkins can now dispense patronage Instead of relief funds. If Administrator Harrington thought this reasoning was silly, ha knew better than to say so. Bo did any other Roosevelt appointee who financed In the purchase of German export products. This plan won little sympathy from either Britain or the U. S.,but it at least offered a bail for negotiation by which the Intergovernmental refugee committee could deal both with Germany and Italy. Since Italy's Jewish persecution Is far less severe than Germany's, President Roosevelt contacted Premier Mussolini shortly after January 1, asking him to urge more leniency on Chancellor Hitler. Also suggested was the settling of Italian Jews (who must leave by February 1) in Ethiopia. A week later, as Prime Minister Chamberlain left on his "appeasement" journey to Borne, it looked like President Roosevelt had Inadvertently given file Rome-Berli-n axis another weapon to hold over Democracy's head. Smart Mussolini, probably on advice from the even smarter Hitler, was willing to discuss the Roosevelt program with Mr. Chamberlain. Observers thought he would agree, but only if Mr. Chamberlain hastens French capitulation to Italian territorial claims. Meanwhile George Rublee, American director of the refugee committee, left for Berlin to negotiate with Hitler, apparently willing to consider a modification of the Reich's program to blackmail democracies into accepting Jews. .Sort Editorial Relief COLUMNISTS Some of the members of the legislature who come from those parts of the state that do not have representation on the committees, commissions and bureaus of the state have their eye on a candidate for the Governorship that, will give the state of Utah equal representation with Salt Lake City and county.
