face the-fact that there are millions
.of unemployed men in the United
States, and they are likely to be un-
employed for a long time to come,
and that it is necessary to give them
jobs without any ifs, ands or buts.
I did not have to tell Mr. Jlopkjns
I much about our California situation,
I because it is his job to know about
all the States. I pointed out to him
that a lot of the unemployed were
coming our way this winter, because
it is less easy to freeze to death here,

Another old friend is William E.
Zeuch, formerly president
monwealth College, now
with some $20.000,000 of
funds to be expended in
self-help colonies. Zeuch called in all
the people of his floor, some t wen tv
or thirty young men and women, to
hear about the EPIC Plan, and they
plied me with q ions for all the
time I had t° spare I asked if they
had any faults to find, and was hap-
py not to hear of any.
And then Mr. Morgenthau, Secre
tary of the Treasury: It was raining,
and the taxicab driver took me to
the wrong door, which turned out to
be the right one—the Secretary's pri-
vate entrance, guarded like a jail. Mr
Morgenthau is an amiable and kindly
young man. and told me T could have
anything I w a n t e d. To hear
that in the United States Treasury
appealed to my sense of humor; but
Mr. Morgenthau would not join in
my unseemly laughter. He told me

I should have Administration sup"

advisers on the left, and is pulled
vigorously in both directions, and
would like to travel in both, out of
the sheer kindness of his heart.
In giving me a list of others I

a twinkle in his eye to “turn the spot-
light on them"—or some siich phrase.
None of them seemed to object to the
