The Southland Is O. K.
MRS. LOWELL F. HOBART of ■
IVI Ohio, a former president-general
of the D.A.R., who has a long record
of making statements that backfire,
has now put on the gloves for a bout
with Communism and vicidentally to
take some nasty digs at President
Roosevelt.
Mrs. Hobart, who is proud that her
ancestors helped shake off the British
yoke by revolution, addresses the
South:
"Do you realize the activities of
Mr. and Mrs. Roosevelt are spreading
Communism in your beloved South-
land ?” her circular letter asks.
"But you of the Southland realize
what this Administration has done to
your cotton and tobacco industries;
your cotton fields lying Idle, your mills
closed, strikes and disorder in your
mining districts, all part of the Com-
munist plan to bring starvation and
misery into the land to make it easier
for the carrying out of their purpose.
(I heard them plan this in Baltimore
in1927)."
The people of the "Southland" might
reply to Mrs. Hobart's circular letter
as follows:
Well now, Mrs. Hobart, we folks in
the South don’t believe that Mr. and
Mrs. Roosevelt are spreading Com-
munism at all. They have both visit-
ed various parts of the South several
times and have always expressed satis-
—faction at our progress under our cap-
italist system. As a matter of fact,
the radicals who turn up ‘occasionally
in the South hate Mr. Roosevelt even
more than you do. Only they say the
New Deal is Fascist, which, as you
may know, is the opposite of Com-
munism.
As for the idle fields and closed
mills, Mrs. Hobart, it’s been our im-
pression that the Southland has been
doing a lot better for the past year
or two. If there was a plan to bring
starvation and misery it seems to have
fallen through some time ago. In some
places in the Southland they have had
some trouble finding enough jobless
to man the WPA projects.
Maybe it was the Communist scare
in the Texas Legislature a couple of
weeks ago that gave you the notion
our Southland is being taken over by
the Reds. The Legislature decided to
investigate Communism in the state
university, but the investigators rode
off rapidly in all directions and noth-
ing came of it.
We notice you say you heard the
Communists planning to bring starva-
tion and misery to the Southland, in
Baltimore in 1927. We think you
should have said something about it
then, or even about 1932, when it did
seem that misery was going to get us
down, Instead of waiting until now,
when we're doing OK again.
It .couldn't be that you're just try-
ing to scare "our beloved Southland"
into voting for Mr. Landon, could it,
Mrs. Hobart?
Cornell's deodorization of the cab-
bage may do away with the old prac-
tice of staggering through the apart-
ment and groping for a window. 4
An Unnecessary Evil
A FORT WORTH lawyer named
A Clyde R. Davis wrote a letter pub-
lished in The Press the other day in
which he termed the loan sharks "a
necessary evil," and said they should
be let alone.
The Press believes that usurious
loan sharks are not necessary, and
that they are B handicap to their vie-
tims. to legitimate business and to the
community at large.
The loan shark is the fellow who
loans a necessitous wage earner $20
when he needs it badly, and then,
through threats and intimidation, keeps
him paying interest at the rate of 240
to 520 per cent.
Many of these victims come to tell
their stories to The Press. One man,
an agent for a vacuum cleaner manu-
facturer, borrowed $20 when his wife
got sick, and repaid $24 within a month.
The loan shark says he still owes over
120.-
The loan shark collector went to
the place where he works and threat-
ened to beat him up if he didn’t keep
on paying. When the man still refused,
— the loan shark began writing letters
to the man’s employer in another city,
telling him his employe doesn’t pay his
debts. The man is afraid he will lose
his job. That has happened, to many
loan shark victims. Not only have they
lost their jobs, but the loan shark keeps
on hounding them if they get new jobs.
We can’t see any difference between
Hugh Tahnson Cause Landon Never Loved
1 ugn Jonnson DdySe Civil Service Before
Hell! I Can't Even Ruin
CIT. LOUIS, Mo., Oct. 30.- Most of the
D emergency legislation setting up or-
ganizations which expire in a year or
two, omitted the requirement for civil
patronage of AAA, he didn't look at .
the politics of a single appointment. 1
believe it contained more Republicans
than Democrats. Jim Farley was al-
VE/P J
service examinations because that is for | most ready to resign because Ickes
"career" jobs in permanent depart-
wouldn’t even listen to a political rec-
ments.. .: 2
The war, proved the civil service
system is too slow and cumbersome for
the immediate, con-
struction of any huge
emergency system, and
it is inappropriate be-
cause it injects vast
numbers into the civil
service lists for whom
there will soon be no
jobs. This loses the
real Federal careerist
in an exaggerated
waiting list. S
Mr. Landon has
civil service for a Mr Jonnson
campaign issue with-
out mentioning the consideration just
expressed. His figures are deceptive.
If it is true that on March 4, 1933,
there were 100,000 jobs "available for
patronage” , and "the proportion of
executive employes’ under the civil
service was, 80 per cent and that, on
June, 1936, "it was 325,000,” but the
ommendation.
If anybody can show me any single
political appointment in NRA I'll buy
him a hat. Most of the important jobs
were held by Republicans. WPA may '
have had some few local'outcrops of
politics, but Hopkins is so opposed to
political pressure that it became an un-
reasonable obsession. He snarled at so
many Democratic Congressmen seeking
patronage that most of them can’t men-
tion his name without adding some-
thing, *
Farley has been miserable since
March 4,' 1933. He has taken all the
pounding for political pandering. He
would like to deserve it. But New
Dealers, who knew nothing and care
less about appointments for political
organization, have had all the-patron-
age and have not rewarded the faithful.
THIS, at one time, got to be such an
1 affront to old-time politicians in
Congress, that it was no longer pleasant
for a New Dealer to visit Capitol Hill. •
When the time came to set up the
percentage "had dropped 60 per cent,”
then the absolute number of civil serv- greatest potential job reservoir- social
ice employee in March, 1933, was 80,-
000 and by June, 1936, had risen to
195,000.
No such thing happened. The low-
er percentages are due to the greater
number, of emergency and temporary
jobs, not to the exclusion of perma-
nent departments from civil service.
Mr. Landon jumps from this deception
to the conclusion that non-civil service
appointments are all political pie. As
this column has been compelled by can-
dor and fairness to say, the charge of .
political job mongering is not. true,
# * #.
CIENATOR PITTMAN once complain-
D ed in a public speech that the only
way he could get consideration from
Madame Perkins for some Democratic
constituents, was through Republican
Senators. Al Smith and Governor Ely
are howling like disembodied spirits
along the dreary waste of No-Man's- '
Land that thin Administration ditched
the Democrats, | In all appointments,
while Alf Landon howls that it put
them back on the payrolls.
George Peek is a Republican, but
bin book asserts that in all the vast
- security they appointed a Republican
presidential possibility, John Winant.
It is no exaggeration to say that
political use of appointments has been
less than under any Administration in
history. Yet Mr. Land n Falls it "the
most open, crude, brutal use of the
spoils system this country has -ever
seen."
In my native Kansas, they have a
saying that "a Democrat can have a
job when -there are no more Republi-
cans to give them to." There is a
civil service law, but Governor London
didn’t get it revised for emergency and
temporary departments as he charged
Roosevelt did. He just ignored both
department and temporary jobs.
At no place in the United States,
and never in politics, was there any
more hard-boiled Administration of the
spoils system in utter subversion of the
letter and spirit of the civil service
laws, than in • Kansas under London.
What he now says are his ingrained
convictions about universal civil serv-
ice, are a precise reversal of every act
and expression of his whole political
life to date.
_______- WHAT OUR READERS BAY -____------
Amendment Increasing Officials’ Salaries Praised
Intimidating a man into paying usury
and intimidating him with a gun into
handing over his pocketbook. It's rob-
bery, no matter what name is applied
to it.
And we can’t see any excuse for
lawyers, the City Council, or the whole
community considering this kind of
robbery a "necessary evil.”
The City Council is still consider-
ing what kind of an ordinance it ought
to pass to curb the loan sharks. Coun-
cilman Monnig, who opposed the first
proposed ordinance, insists that he is
still anxious to get the loan sharks.
We Believe he is, for Mr. Monnig is a
retail merchant, and we don't see how
any merchant or business man can
stand by and see thousands of dollars
being squeezed from their customers in
usury and sent away to the syndicates
which own the local loan shark offices.
A man accused of breaking up the
home of another need not be a roue
nowadays. He, might have just
bumped into the trailer.
■ On to Waco
NEXT Wednesday, day after elec-
tion, .has been declared Fort
Worth Day at the Brazos Valley Fair
at Waco.
Mayor Van Zandt Jarvia of Fort
Worth has called upon citizens to pay
a visit to our sister city on that day
in recognition of the honor she is doing
us.
We have been having a show our-
selves this summer in Fort Worth, and
many Wacoana have helped make our
Frontier celebration successful. Now
Waco is having its Brazos Valley Fair,
and this is our chance to return the
call.
The junior and senior Chambers
of Commerce are both organizing parties
to represent the business life of our
city by sending five busloads of men
and women to Waco on Fort Worth
Day.
if you believe Fort Worth should
be a neighborly "city, plan now to join
the caravan to Waco next Wednesday.
Meet Human Needs
Social Education Necessary to
Social Progress
"ITHE greatest contribution that can
1 be made to more purposeful liv-
ing is the education of the laymen,
particularly the business men, in the
true nature of the social problems of
their community." This is the opinion
of Stillman F. Westbrook, vice presi-
dent of a great life insurance company
and president of Community Chests
and Councils, Inc.
The terrible importance of social
reconstruction and in many, instances
actual new construction is being rec-
ognized by thoughtful men and women
all over the country. The necessity for
understanding the connection between
adequate provision for meeting Human
Needs and the security of civilization
is receiving increased emphasis.

Concerning Nov. 3
By MRS. WALTER FERGUSON
THE campaign careens crazily to its
1 close. So crazily, Indeed, that the
voters are more than a little tired of
it. Political speeches are so numerous,
the air is so thick with the clamor
of candidates, that the whole thing
has become as tiresome as a song
crooned too often on our radios. We ,
are in a mood to turn
the dial and tune out
9 the politicians.
9 Such long - drawn-
9 out contests are bad
9 for the public morale,,
9 and certainly' have a
9 deleterious effect on
Hour voting intelli- .
H gence.
The patriots on
x both the Democratic
d and Republican sides
H sound rather funny.
• The Ins shout that
— Roosevelt has saved
Mrs. Ferguson us; the Outs scream
that Landon can rescue the nation
from ruin. I imagine, however, the
country will rock along somehow, who-
ever wins, although my vote will go
for F. D. R. I do not approve of many
things he has done, but I approve of
MORE things he has done than I think
will ever be done if the old bunch gets
in again.
While we stew in these periodic fcr-
vors, declaiming our passion for the
Constitution, few lovers of country
seem to give much thought to the lesser
offices which are to be filled. Con-
gressmen, for instance. The fate of
the nation actually rests in their hands,
or ought to in a democratic govern-
ment. Yet most of the gentlemen and
ladies who are whooping it up for Lan-
don and Roosevelt can't name the can-
didates for Congress in their own
states. Some aren’t even acquainted
with the incumbents in their home dis-
tricts.
And state legislators" Who gives
them or their policies a thought’ Who
is concerned about the inept, ignorant
or unworthy men we elect to offices
| which affect most closely the economic
life of the average individual? As a
matter of fact, no voter can cast an
intelligent ballot unless he knows as.
much about his local political situation
as he does about the national one. If
we ever become patriotic enough to
demand good city, county and state
government, we'll not need to worry so
much about what goes on in Wash-
—Ington.----——•----------—— -----
IT takes a highly intellectual indi-
vidual to enjoy leisure. Most of us had

—Dr. J. B. Nash, New York University.
Editor, The Press:
A LTHOUGH other of the con-
A stitutional amendments to
be voted on Nov. 3 are very
meritorius, yet most of them are
receiving more active support
than Number 5. Therefore, I
come to its public aid. This is
the amendment increasing the
salaries of the governor from
$4000 to $12,000; of the attor-
ney general from $4000 to $10,-
000; of the land commissioner
from $2500 to $6000; of the sec-
retary of state from $2000 to
$6000; of the comptroller from
$2500 to $6000; of the treasurer
from $2500 to $6000.
It ought not to be. necessary
to urge the adoption of this
amendment. It is so obvious that
these salaries should be increas-
ed that it is hard to believe that
there will be a substantial vote
against this amendment. How-
ever, many people will not know
the amount of the increase, and
will therefore vote against the
amendment; and many people,
just because of the tendency to
vote against amendments, will'
vote against this one, along with
their vote in opposition to some
other.
It has been a disgrace to Tex-
as for many years that these of-
ficials who are charged with
such great responsibility, and all
of whom but the secretary of
state must make an expensive
state-wide campaign to secure
election, should be paid salaries
which will not even begin to pay
their campaign expenses. Of
course, it is easy to say that if,
they do not want the office at
the salary, they, do not have to
run, but this is begging the
question. Of course, their, cam-
paign expenses are usually paid
by friends; but when they are in
office, they cannot permit friends
to pay the cost of living ex-
penses. or should not be forced
to do so; and most of these of-
ficers retire in debt, or after
having spent the accumulations
■ of years. The average voter
might say then, "Why do they
run for the office?" It is because
of the prestige of the office and
the glamor that public office has
for some ambitious persons. But
this is no reason for making
it that caught my eye said:
"The people, with the coming of
the New Deal, had learned many
things about relief.”
That sounded reasonable, I
thought, considering the people's
lack of relief under the other
administration of the past. But
the next line floored me. It
said the people had learned, for
instance, that relief could mean
the building of a million dollar
distillery in the Virgin Islands.
WOMAN, 83, WILL VOTE
FOR ROOSEVELT
Editor, The Press:
V/ILL you give me space in
W your paper to give five rea-
sons why I am going to vote for
Roosevelt for President ?
"Could mean," mind you, yet it
charged it up as a reality by im-
plying that it was only drawn, .
but drawn from public relief
funds.
Continuing with its trumped-
up charges against the adminis-
tration, it said that relief had
meant dropping $7,000,000 into
the ocean for the Passamaquod-
dy Dam 'project and it had a
caricature of President Roose-
velt doing the dropping.
Everybody knows, except
probably the Virgin Islanders
and possibly the Republicans,
that Congress never even passed
such a bill connected with relief
in any form.
It's worse than political prop-
aganda on down to the bottom
page where', across the yellow
background in large black type
it said: Landon keeps his prom-
ise. I shall answer that in their
same distorted spirit of purpose-
ful misunderstanding, by saying,
"Let him keep them." So far as
I know, Landon's promises are
too divided in their construction
to be of any use to this nation
in any way.
Maybe he is saving them for
future campaigns or, better still,
aiming to sell them to big busi-t
ness.
Landon and his promises, I am
sure, will be of no further -na-
tional interest after Nov. 3 and
if I seem to have over-shot the
mark some places .in the above,
remember it is the first time I
ever took, aim at a political
“gutter pup."

He gave the people something

I don't blame the crooked law-

But it is the people's fault for

Millionaire Prizefight
Fanciers Are Back
In Circulation
By WESTBROOK PEGLER "
GEVERAL times of late your
D correspondent has held talk
with melancholy prizefight man-
agers and‘heard ihem pine, pite-
ously for the good old days when
the rich and exclusive society mil.
lionaires of Park Ave. were buy-
ing pugilists on the’ hoof and
turning them over to professional
master minds for training, feed-
ing, advice, counsel and discip-
line.
To be sure, those were happy
days, and the
memory is
s we et indeed,
but my mourn-
. ful friends for-
get an impor-
tant rule of
foot - racing
which every
s c h oolboy
learns the first
day that he
goes out for
track. The
first
teach
boy runner is
to pick them
, up and put Mr. Pegler
them down with the utmost rapid-
ity, and the next rule in the book
is "never look back,"
. No doubt it does warm the soul,
if not the belly, of a hungry mas-
ter mind rocking on his heels in
the drafty doorway of a doughnut
parlor to remember the time that
Mr. Anthony J. Drexel Biddle Jr.
paid $17,500 cash to Mr. Lew
Burston for Rene De Vos, the
Belgian . middleweight. It seems
too beautiful to have been true,
for he was matched with Mr. Ace
Hudkins at the time of the sale,
and Mr. Burston, in addition te
the sale price, collected his man-
agerial portion of the $13,000
which De Vos received for fight-
ing Hudkins.
THAT night, after Rene De Vos
A had started his career under,
the proud crest of the Drexel
Biddles with a glorious defeat In
10 slashing rounds, Mr. Biddle
served a collation in his honor at
an exclusive society hotel which 2
was by all odds the most sumptu- T
ous scoff-touch ever scored by
the gentlemen of the profession.
Mr. Biddle was proprietor of the
hotel at the time, which is an-
other way of saying he was),
stuck with it, pending liquidation,
and he broke out the fine linen
and, heavy silver for the occasion.
There was a faint reek of scan-
dal for a few days regarding
some silverware which seems to
have become mislaid somehow,
and several cases of wine, at pro-
hibition prices, not accounted for
in the checking. The exclusive
society millionaires cast sinister
glances at the members of our
set; but there were quite a lot of
bankers and Wall St. brokers
among the enemy, so we quickly
took the play away from them
and had them on the defensive.
The police never found the silver-
ware or the wine, but they were
prowling Wall St., not 49th St.,
when the scent was lost.
Mr. Biddle has now become
minister to Norway, and Mr. De
Vos, knocked out by Angel Cli-
velle, who fought under very in-
ferior social auspices, has with-
drawn to his villa on the Mediter-
ranean.
these public servants work for
— the inadequate salaries now pro-
vided by .the Constitution. Texas
should be ashamed of doing so.

who vote on this amendment do at

SIDE GLANCES.
TUNG OIL INDUSTRY
Growing of tung oil in Amer-
ica is hailed as an established
industry by the Gulf Coast Che-
murgic Conference and the Tung
Oil Association of America.
Fruit now maturing on trees
scattered throughout Florida,
Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi
and Texas will be the equival-
ent of not less than 2,000,000
pounds of tung oil.
Oil of the tung tree's fruit is
widely used in paints and varn-
ishes, linoleum, oilcloth, print-
ing ink and electrical goods. For
this raw material the. United
States is largely dependent upon
China. U. S. consumption is
around 125,000.000 pounds.
Tung oil seeds were first sent
to this country in 1902 from
Hankow, China. Today there
are 75,000 acres planted to tung
in the South.
. By George Clark
eral revenue of Texas; and to
those who do pay, this increase
will not cost the largest tax-
payer in Texas as much as the
price of a ticket to the picture
show, and to most of them not
half as much as the cost of a
package of chewing gum.”
There are any number of state
officers who now are provided
much larger salaries than our
governor gets. and it is ridicu-
lous for a governor of a state
not to get as much salary as,
for instance, the members of the
Board of Control or the tax
commissioner or the insurance
commissioners, railroad commis-
sioners or any number of other
statutory officers whose salaries
are fixed by the Legislature.
Texas has a fine group of
men holding these offices for the
next two years, but whether you
think that or not, let's do the
right thing by the office, for the
sake of our state.

Editor. The Press:
FOR the benefit of the sender,
* and also of another, who
both forgot to sign their names
to a little yellow folder put in
my mail, with a color that
matched perfectly the senti-r
ments of its contents and cre-
ators.
My last remarks In the Pres-
idential campaign will be a little
pot-shot at the gutter pupa of
the special interests.'One line of
QUR set at that time rejoiced
U in the patronage of Mr. Wal-
ter Chrysler, the motor magnate,
who paid $35,000 for Knute Han-
sen, who was promptly ironed out H
by Mr. K. O. Christner. And we s
were proud beyond enduring H
when Fainting Phillip Scott of 1
London was invited to train 1
among the exclusive society mil- 1
lionaires at Palm Beach. Some I
said he was going to train at the 1
home of Mr. Ned (Uncle Tom) 1
Hutton, the old tax slave, but his 1
manager, Mr. James J. Johnston, 1
quickly squelched that.
"Our terms call for training at 1
the Bath and Tennis Club,” Mr. I
Johnston said. "If they want us
in the home it will cost extra."
But here your correspondent
goes, looking back to the good old
days, contrary to Rule 2 in the
book, when better days are now
to hand and even better lie before.
- For look you, gentlemen, to the
seal of Mr. Bowtie Bronson, who !
handled De Vos for Mr. Biddle.
Does Mr. Bronson spend his hours
looking back? On the contrary,
Mr. Bronson has established rela-
tions with a new society million-
aire and a richer and more exclu-
sive one than Mr. Biddle.
* * * -
MR. BRONSON now operates
1’1 one Abe Simon for Mr. Jock
. Whitney, and Mr. Simon has won
14 out of 15 contests for him.
True, the 15th was the one he
lost, and he didn't look too charm-
ing, all 250 pounds of him, in
defeat at the
pounder. But that is past, and 1
Mr. Bronson looks constantly for- |
ward, to other gladiators and
other society millionaires.
You think, gentlemen, that Mr.
Riddle, Mr. Chrysler, Mr. Matt
Brush, the society brakeman, and
those millionaires were hot ? Then
what would you think of those
Donohue boys, James and Woolly,
of the night club scion set, and
young Leeds, who lives on a yacht,
and Jimmy Cromwell, who mar-
ried Doris Duke?
"My goodness, sakes.” said Mr.
Bronson, "life just goes on and
on. There are always new mil-
lionaires, and these new ones
know nothing about earning. They
never had any practice. Spending
is all they know. It makes me
very impatient to hear about the
good old days.” .
