NEW DEAL TO ACT AS GUIDE. RICHBERG SAYS Individual Initiative Not to Be Disturbed, Murat Audience Told. A theory of government which guides industry, and at the same time allows Individual initiative, was explained last night to a highly attentive audience of business men by Donald R. Richberg, close advisor to the President, and executive director of the national emergency council. Admission to the Murat theater, where the meeting was held, was by tickets distributed by the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce. Business men and industrialists, eager to learn what their fate will be under future New Deal policies, overflowed the theater and listened gravely to the noted speaker. Arriving in the city at noon. Mr. Richberg conferred with local civic and relief leaders, played golf at the Broadmoor Country Club in the afternoon as the guest of Louis J. Borinstein, Chamber of Commerce president, and was the honor guest at a dinner given by chamber directors in the Indianapolis Athletic Club preceding the Murat meeting Continuing Adjustments The NRA chief, forceful and pleasant personality, allayed fears that the government would turn to Socialism or Communism by expressing the belief that neither form of government was adequate for the United States. Instead, Mr. Richberg, whose policies are said by political observers to be strictly in line with those of President Roosevelt, advocated a benevolent and paternalistic form of government, a guardianship of industry, commerce and agricultural through various government agencies. The speaker pictured the eco- j nomic world as a continual adjust- ; ment betwen the manufacturer, the consumer and the laborer and said that the government should be more than an umpire in such conflicts. “The freedom, which we all crave, must be guaranteed today—not by letting people alone—but by making sure that they are so organized for co-operative action that the continuous interchange of necessary products and services will not break down and leave hosts of people theoretically free, but practically deprived of freedom to earn a living, and left with only what may be called in bitter irony, the liberty to starve,” Mr. Richberg declared. Necessity of Restraints Coining a phrase, Mr. Richberg said, “We are not going back to the ‘Follies of 1929.’ The alternatives should be clearly presented to American business. Individual freedom, the exercise of private initiative and the Incentive of private profit can be preserved so long as a fair competitive system is maintained. “But when restraints are found necessary’—not upon unfair competition—but upon a fair competition in producing as much as the market will absorb at the lowest prices which encourage production, then such restraints can only be imposed, if at all, in the full light of public knowledge and under the continuing supervision and function of thoes officially charged with protection and public interest.” Hitting at those who attack the government recovery program as unconstitutional in some respects, the speaker said: Small Talk Discounted “To me it is utterly unimportant to argue the merits or necessities of every action taken, every device employed or every federal agency created in the spring of 1933. “The decisive fact is that we came out of the depths of the depression ENDSCOLDS You end a cold and end it right when you take Grove's Laxative Bromo Quinine.

with practically no civil disorder and with the governments of the states and the United States still functioning under their constitutional safeguards of individual liberty and social security.” Touching on criticism that the government has failed to live up to the 1932 Democratic platform which promised government expenses would be cut, the budget balanced and the government taken out of the field of private business, Mr. Richberg commented: Flays Unsound Criticism “The fundamental unsoundness of this variety of criticism lies in three facts: First, the Democratic platform was adopted in June, 1932. Second, our financial and industrial structure was on the verge of collapse in March, 1933, when the present administration came into power. “Third, from that day to this the continuing improvement of our economic health has depended absolutely upon the maintenance of public support for millions of individuals and for the huge institutions upon which the welfare of 120,000,000 people depends.” Huge expenditures of the federal government have been made under the driving necessity of protecting the entire population from the accumulated evils of a long depression, he pointed out, promising, however, that these emergency relief expenditures should not be continued and will not be continued beyond the period of necessity. Lauds Founding Fathers “To protect individual freedom in our industrial civilization is a far different problem from the one presented to those who wrote the Constitution of the United States ‘to secure the blessings of liberty’ to themselves and their posterity,” Mr. Richberg said in defending the so-called “brain trust” against its critics. “But it is a problem which can be solved by a government established under that Constitution and through democratic measures of cooperation which are consistent with the traditions and ideals of America. “Every American citizen who knows the history of his country must recognize the profound wisdom of those who framed our national Constitution: but sometimes when I read criticisms of a mythical brain trust of young college men which is supposed to be operating in Washington today, I wonder if such critics know any more about the writers of the Constitution than they know about the law-makers of the present day. “The facts are that the average age in the present executive council. which includes President Roosevelt. his cabinet and the heads of emergency agencies, must be over 50 years, and that the leaders in the seante and house are no younger. “In contrast to this rather mature group, the average in the Constitutional convention of 1787 was 42 years. James Madison, the socalled father of the Constitution, was 36, and it may again be recalled that Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence at the ripe age of 33. “Let us hope that It will not undermine faith in the practical wisdom of the framers of the Constitution if it also be mentioned that out of fifty-five members, thirty had received a college education and that twenty-six properly could be classified with college professors.” LAX THE BLADDER Use Juniper Oil, Buchu Leaves, Etc.

TEACHERS FEAR ‘POLITICS' MAY MARSESSIONS Faction Seeks Outright Approval of McNutt, Is Report. Efforts were being made today to keep the brand of “politics" from being stamped on the Indiana State Teachers’ Association at its convention opening here Thursday in Cadle tabernacle. The charge that “politics” teemed in the pre-convention committee meetings today was caused by a group in the association attempting to obtain convention assent for a resolution approving the administration of the schools of the state by Governor Paul V. McNutt. A conservative element in the association seeks to keep the association from being termed “political” and is doing everything it can to prevent the association from going 'McNutt.’’ It is believed this element will be in the saddle in the convention and will sooth the “McNutters” with a mild resolution approving the state support of schools without openly boosting the Governor for his staunch effort to keep the school open and teachers on the pay roll in what he has termed in speeches, “at any cost.”

Governor Is Praised Association conservatives, some who are aligned politically with the Republicans and others who seek merely to keep the breath of “politics’’ from the association’s windowpane, are quick to point out that the state support plan for schools was urged before Governor McNutt put the plan into effect. However, they praise the Governor for weathering the broadsides from tax associations and politicians in passing the gross income tax law and thereby aiding schools materially in a financial way. Efforts will be made by delegations from Ft. Wayne and South Bend to have the annual teachers’ meetings a traveling affair with district conferences in such cities as Gary, Ft. Wayne, South Bend, Indianapolis, Muncie and Evansville. Seek Reinstatement It is believed that excessive cost of transportation and salary of speakers will defeat the possibility of adoption of such a resolution at the convention. Battle over the reinstatement of sixteen sections of departments in the association may develop on the convention floor. The sections were dropped one year ago, but now seek reinstatement. Under the present ruling of the convention but twenty-four sections will be incorporated in the association's program list for 1935. The sections dropped last year are listed in this year’s program.
