Having led the American people up a blind alley, the New Deal was repudiated, at the polls, we said. It was further contended that the days of blank check appropriations, wasteful and reckless spending, dangerous experiments and un-American activities were over. The Democratic spokesman dissented. Yet surely the record of the last session of Congress fully bore out our prediction. Indeed, even casual observers recognized that President Roosevelt lost control of Congress early in the session, despite the overwhelming Democratic majorities in the House and Senate. By the time the session came to an end the New Deal was in full retreat, action in this Congressional session . was the refusal of the House of Rep-} resentatives to even consider the President’s mis-labeled ‘‘lending’’ bill. Its original, figures cut in half -by the Senate, this bill was tossed into the fastebasketby the House. Conceived in cunning and deceit, this proposed legislation met a deserved ill fate. The fact that this bill ,as originally proposed, would have permitted the New Deal to spend another four billion dollars which some day would ‘have to be paid back by the worker and formers of this country was only one reason why it was obnoxious. More important was the fact that it would have started this nation on the road to a State Socialism which would have jeopardized all private enterprises eventually. From that evil, thank Heaven, a sturdy patriotic majority of the House of Representatives saved us. As was to be expected, Mr. Roosevelt let loose a loud howl of protest when hs Socialistic program. went into the wastebasket. He said in effect ‘that the action of the House would 1g Designed for the Modern Housewife — Backed by ABC’s 30 years of YOUR CHOICE Ladies Helper Clothes Basket or Universal Clothes Dryer For a limited time only we offer with the purchase of a new 1939 ABC Washer or froner.

the unemployed. In other words, his contention was that this Socialistic, spending measure was the solution “or the Roosevelt depression. It was an amazing statement. In the first place, all the business and industrial indices commenced to advance as soon as the House action be‘ame known. Many industrial securities sold at new high prices for the year. As a matter of fact business did not begin to shake off the lethargy which has marked it until Congress indicated a spirit of independence in the last month. But, let us suppose iMr. Roosevelt was correct in his contention. Was not his statement a surprising confession of ineptness on his part? If his latest spending plan was the remedy for the dexression why did he keep it secret so long? Why did he not undertake such a program several years ago? Could it be true that Mr. Roosevelt only wants his country to be prosperous in Presidential election years? Of course, the President’s protest against the House action should not be taken seriously. It was an expression of chagrin and anger over The country apparently has not been disturbed by Mr. Roosevelt’s gloomy wail. In every part of the country the House action was greeted with enthusiastic praise. The real meaning of the House action is that at last the country has become aroused over New Deal spending and taxation. Were this not so, the House would not have acted as it did. Therein lies the explanation why the New Deal is finished for spending other people’s money was all the New Dealers had left. It was their only solution for the country’s ‘economic ills. : Not only has Congress put its foot down on greater and greater spending programs but it also has injected a little sense into the administration of the relief problem. It has repealed the harmful undistributed profits tax on business. It has halted the pyramiding of payroll and pay envelope taxes for old age pensions. At last a step has been taken to get a little sense into our labor relations through appointment of a House committee to investigate the present situation, so objectionalble to everyone. A review of the work of the last Congress would not be complete unless a word were said regarding the important part played by the Republicans of House and Senate. They led the fight for all the reforms preyiously enumerated. They have been fighting for those reforms for the Jast two and one half years. The fact that they have achieved so much is evidence of the sagacity of the Republican leaders, Senator Charle L. McNary in the Senate and Representative Joseph W. Martin, Jr. in the House. The results show what can be done by a milltant, determined minority party, bent on being constructive as well as critical. It is a good indication of what the country can expect in the way of constructive reforms when the Republicans assume control of the Federal government in January 1941. BANNER MT.
