What funds approof the use the teyond confidenpriated hist winter, remain tial but without doubt the country can expect to see some very definite changes In the practices that hare fceen followed. The New Deal was swept Into the governmental control upon the twin arches of recovery and relief. The recovery arch seems to be holding up. The relief arch, I believe, can be said At least that Is the to be teetering. conclusion that must be drawn on a aet of circumstances In which billions s jiave been 8ient to tide destitute over their distress only to leave millions of them still looking for government handouts. It Is quite apparent that Mr. Itnose-vetook his two relief advisers on his Western trip chiefly for the purpose, bear, of going like the ever the mountain to see whut he could see. .The word that has come back to Washington Is that he saw some things that were not altogether encouraging. lie found that hie previous relief methods were not In high favor in the Middle West and on the pacific coast Hence there are some Changes In prospect New Deal opposition has characterized the Presidents vacation trip westward ns being. In part politics. Whether this be a fact or not anyone can recall that there Is an election In November, 1930, and that shrewd politicians bejdn many months In advance to oil the campaign machinery and see tlint the gears mesh. It Is not at all unlikely, then, that while Mr. Roosevelt was sincerely examining the relief situation and attempting to ascertain for himself what should be done to make the going easier for those In distress, he probably had In the back of his mind thoughts of how those same people would react when they go to the polls a year hence and find his name as the Democratic Presidential nominee.- per-aon- lt well-know- n months ago Mr. Roosevelt with emphasis that the Job of taking care of the Courting destitute must be turned back to the Trouble states and private charity. It was, he said, no longer a federal proposition. A good many observers here felt at the time he mnde that announcement thnt lie wns courtThose who took tlint ing trouble. view have found their conclusions amply supported by the facts since deThe President, Indeed, has veloped. courted trouble and It la a species of trouble that la going to remain with him throughout a long, hard winter Just ahead. Probably he will be able to find a way out If, Indeed, a wuy out wns not discovered while he and Messrs Hopkins and Ickes were on their transcontinental tour. To the average person, however, the solution Borne Is not so apparent Tlint brings iis to a plinse of federal administration, new circumstance and problem, confronting the nation. I describe It as a new problem which In fart It la when considered In the light of developments since the New Heal took control. It seems to me that It ought to be aid the Roosevelt administration failed to profit by a knowledge of what has happened heretofore In the use of the dole. Just across the At. lantlc has been available a aplendld demonstration of what the dole can and will do to a population. The Brit-Is- h government listened to the appeals uf the professional relievers and humanitarians and adopted a dole. It has taken that nation four years to whittle away even a part of the situation It built up for Itself. Hera Is the crux of the problem: At any time a governmental agency begins to feed people, to clothe them and to provide them with the othrr necessaries of life free, by Hint set It Inculcates In those people not all of them of course a feeling that the world, and particularly their government owes them n living. A certain percentage of them Immediately become convinced that while the dole nay be smaller than their weekly pay check earned In Industry, It comes without work. In fact, It breeds Iasi-nes- So, in this country now we have certain percentage of the population who are wholly Don t willing to work Ira v e Jobe cause y found they that the gov- ernment will tnke care of them lu times nr stress.

Now sneaks up a vocational expert to protest at this belittling of Jack. In these days of hazardous employment niul drastic ocouimtlonal changes resulting from the rapid advance of Hie machine, the Jack of all trades is needed, says Prof. Harry D. Kltson of Teachers college, Cob unihia. Even If Jack la master of no trade, he Is much more master of his own destiny than the mun. Therefore, saya Doctor Kltson, today's vocational guidance effort should endeavoi at all costs "to avoid giving young people the obsession inat they are created for one occupation. This, unfortunately, aeema to be one result of relying too heavily on the aptitude tests and other methods of gauging ability which have been devised In great detail by the vocational guidance experts. Such tests hare value; but they also have limitations. Doctor Kltson, one Judges, Is an expert with a saving sense of reasonableness. He recognizes there is a danger of not being able to see the wooda for the trees. The jack of all trades was supposed to be an outstanding human product of the pioneer days. He who alone, or with a small Isolated group, was battling the old frontier, hnd to be a jack of all trades. And sometimes be was muster of several. It is surprising now to see the modern Industrial setup, the antithesis of the frontier, deinnnding the same qualifications. WASHINGTOND.L Washington.

He ordered It compiled and released for publication at this early date, he said. In order that the country may know whnt confronts It In the way of expenditures for the fiscal year beginning last Jnly and ending next June 30. careful analysis of the summation and the revision' of estimates of expenditures for the current fiscal year rather Indicates that it will be the most expensive In New Deal history. This Is true despite Mr. Roosevelt's declaration that a sharp In business activity will result in a marked curtailment In relief expenditures. The budget statement by the President was regarded In the national Capital as rather Illusory. In fact some of Mr. Roosevelt's own subordinates entertained a fear that the thing would lie regarded as having a political purpose. They felt that there was no call for the action and that It might logically result In providing New Deal opposition with new ammunition which It can use In criticizing waste and maladministration particularly with respect to the relief programs The summation shows that the actual deficit for the current year to date la more than half again aa large as was the deficit on the corresponding day last year, despite .the business recovery about which Mr. Roosevelt lately has talked several times.. It showed further that even under the revised estimates submitted by the President, expenditures for the current year will he S400, 000,000 more than last year and 9COO.OUO.OUO more than In the first year of the New Deal. The President In his statement asserted thnt the deficit next June 30. will be S300.000.000 less than the last fiscal year, but If one digs Into the mass of figures It can be seen that this hns been simply transferred to revised budget figures for the works relief program. On this basis then, some observers persistently Inquire where the substantial and sustained economy In government has been effected either by the administration or by the business Improvement It Is difficult to unswer. It Is more difficult In the opinion of Chairman Henry P. Fletcher of the Republican national committee, because of the frequent references which Mr. 'Roosevelt mnde during his 1932 campaign to a program of enforced economy In government Cver since the President began writobing the New Deal budgets, capital servers have been awaiting the day when, under the pressure of political necessity or a alncere determination on his part to carry out hla political promises, be would start squeezing Hie excess out of those budgets. I think It la fair to say that there hae been an Immense suiount of water in the government budgets under the New DcnL Kqunlly, I think It Is fair l sny thnt there has been s tremendous amount of waste. Thus, the time apparently has arrived when the President miist start to trim down tbeae costs If the national debt Is not to get dear out of bounds. As a politician of the keenest type. Mr. Roosevelt recognises belter, perlinin. than anyone else that the American people do not like to see debts piled up, debts cither piivate or public. Consequentto ly, It Is not an unsafe format make that Mr. Roosevelt will be turning toon to curtailment of expenditures. It has been Inleretlltg to compare the budgets under the lloover with those by Air. Roosevelt. Mr. lloover always was optimistic about his budgets. In fact, they were estialways smaller than an honest Mr. mate of requirement called for. Roosevelt has been aa flagrantly petal mlstlc about hla budgets aa Mr. Hoover waa optimistic. The result, of course, bns been that the Roosevelt budgets were extraordinarily large and somewhat unjustified WMtara Jtswmpw Usl-t- o 1, A Outside Influence There Is a spark of something In a bad boy that no kind of conscientious parental training can take out Dont always blame parents.
