During our earlier years the pro-

than the proportion of old people.

Today for various reasons, the pro- |

portion of old is increasing more | rapidly than | young people. With such changes have come also changes in social habits and in points of view.

ECONOMIC SECURITY

Under conditions of maturity of a nation there is, justifiably, an in- | creasing concern on -the part of nearly every citizen for his economic security. In the earlier days of nur | nation’s youth there was no such dominating concern. As a people we could then be happy-go-lucky — a characteristic of youth. National maturity requires that we have new points of view, and that we do some things in different ways. ? This matter of economic =ecurity, I take it, is not to be achieved by aiming for restriction of tional® income—real national in- | come — but by aiming for more abundant and more tributed national income. fving standard of living and security, for a national household of nearly 130 million people, is to be realized only by high productivity, | broadiy and equitably distributed, | and wisely proportioned with respect to its drain on natural resources and to the variety of human | wants it is destined to satisfy. | It is for such reasons that your | deliberations are of significance to | us, and will be followed with mi- | nute attention. Your scientific and | engineering genius is destroying i one world—the world of relative | scarcity—but has it yet undertaken to create the new world of abundance which is potential in | your command over natural energies? Is creation of greater abundance dependent on further scientific | and engineering achievements so { much as on suitably organizing and { utilizing the engineering already incorporated into your techinque?

VISIONS NEW LEISURE

These .two questions, more simply stated. resolve themselves into this: Are you and I paying enough attention to “human: engineering?” There are many aspects of the | problem. For example, it is possible to conceive that the conversion and application of energy, in the coming generation, will be so directed that half of the population can provide the basic machine-made products necessary for the welfare of the

I would suggest that | the answer should not be left solely in the hands of bankers, govern- { ment officials: or demagogues.

In such | an evaluation the physical and | mental energies of human beings | must be included with coal, petro- | leum, gas, forms.

WASTE IS DEPLORED

To myke such an evaluation, a | higher form of accounting than any | yet developed by commerce and in- | dustry appears to be essential. It | must be a form of accounting that | takes social values, now left to mere assumption, into its calculations and measures them. If a nation were to establish in its social balance sheet a capital account for its energy assets, and were to charge

permits to go unused, as well as the coal and oil that are used; or if the pétroleum industry were charged with the gas it permits to go fo waste—a quantity that iS enormous in the United States, then perhaps all citizens would perceive that public policy and private conduct in respect of natural resources should be quite different from what they now are. It seems to me, a layman, that the outstanding gift of modern science | and engineering to society is greater { knowledge of the characteristics of | electric energy, together with a | very substantial degree of command | over it. Its flexibility is | makes it impressive; its transporta-

of the soil, may increase the usefulness of the internal combustion engine; but in any event it seems most probable that a greater use of electrical energy is absolutely essential in. every sector, rural as well as urban, in the United States, and, indeed, in the whole world. > A sound and courageous public policy will lead toward its cons summation, One who considers the matter with forthright vision can not convince himself that public policy for promotion of availability of electric energy can really harm the electric industry that exists today. It would give opportunity for that industry to add to achievements already great. The more integrated its sources of energy, the less it would require of excess capacity and the lower would be its costs. The broader the base of consumers of a product that is now classed as a necessity, the lower would be its costs and | the greater its stability.

STEINMETZ QUOTED

Years ago Steinmetz observed that electricity is expensive because it is riot widely used, and it is not widely used because it is expensive. Notwithstanding reductions in rates and increase of consumption since his day—which, by the way, have demonstrated the truth of his words —that observation still holds true. There is a vicious circle which must be broken, and wise public policy will help to break it. I still hold to the belief of two years ago, when I spoke as follows: “We are going to see, I believe, with our own eyes electricity and power made so cheap that they will become a. standard article of use, not only for agriculture and manufacturing, but also for every home within reach of an electric light line. “The experience of those sections of the world that have cheap‘pow=er proves very conclusively that the cheaper the power the more of it is used.” : These words were spoken at Grand Coulee.

INDUSTRIAL PROBLEMS

| One of the social changes brought ‘on by the invention and use of the | steam engine was the concentration | of workers ta large factories and of people into-large cities. We have not known what to do about it. | Workers had to go to the steam | engine, whose energy could not be divided into parts and sent out to | them. | Now we have electric energy | which can be and often is produced {in places away from where fabri{cation of usable goods is carried fon. ‘But by habit we continue to |carry this flexible energy in great {blocks into the same great fac- | tories, and continue to carry on

al- | whole of the population. We can | ready be under way without our per- |

ulation of stream flow. Among other incidental values is the generation of electric power. This may prove to-.be the force that breaks the vicious circle to which I have referred. If these are not sufficient, the influence of additional meritorious projects awaiting - development can be added. !

SPEAKS OF TVA

Two great dams of the Tennessee Valley Authority have been completed and are making their contribution to the public weal. Grand Coulee is far enough along to enlist your interest, as also is Bonneville. ~ At Boulder Dam on the mighty Colorado the gates were closed months ago; a great lake has come into being behind the'dam; generating equipment has been installed in the power plant; and at this moment the powerfui turbines are awaiting the relatively tiny impulse of electric current which will flow from the touch of my hand on the button, which you see before me on the desk, to stir them to life and creative activity.

The strategy, acgording to Republican leaders, of arousing northern Indiana voters as well as the Republican press, began early yesterday when Gov. Alfred M. Landon made what he called “back door visits—from the observation platform of a train in: other Indiana cities. ! 2500 Greet Nominee’

Mr. Landon’s greeting®was followed by a banquet last night at which Henry J. Allen, editor and former Kansas + Governor and a Senator, pinned for the benefit of Hoosier Republican editors the badge of communism on President Roosevelt. Following his address, Mr. Allen forecast that the states of Missouri, Kansas, Iowa, Colorado and Nebraska as definitely in the Landon column. Introduced by James E. Watson, former United States Senator from Indiana, to a banquet table of editors and politicians, the editor called President Roosevelt “the Kerensky of the American revolution” in the eyes of the Communist Party and “that’s why they're going to vote for him for they know his weaknesses.” “John L. Lewis, mine union leader, is the Lenin because he knows where he wants to go. Tugwell, too, knows where he wants to go,” Mr. Allen charged.

Republicans sent ‘her into the state to speak and she warned the? voters that the Roosevelt Administration was undermining the Constitution. F. Hareld.

Brann has put Landon on the spot over the campaign contributions sent into Maine by the du Ponts, the Rockefellers and J.P. Morgan.

Landon and Morgan

In 1933, Brann tells his audiences, | Gov. Landon said in- a speech that | Insull and J. P. Morgan were rack- | eteers.. “Now I ask Gov. Landon, when he comes into this state, to re- | quest that the contributions of J. P.! Morgan, whom he called a racketeer, !

| be returned.” i

_Gov. Brann, ®who does not like Roosevelt and the New Deal—and | his feeling, it is understood, is generously reciprocated—can make a longer speech without mentioning the Roosevelt Administration than any other Democratic candidate in! the country. Just the same, he is | the Democrat regarded as most like- | ly to win in the Monday election. | And if he does pull through, and! spoil the Landon trip, all will be for- | given and he will be the new hero of the Democratic Party. = ! But it has been a strain on all |
