By DR. GEORGE GALLUP American Institute of Public Opinion
NEW YORK, Dec. 6, — One of the most celebrated criminal cases In American history may come to an official jend next month when California | inaugurates a new Democratic| Governor pledged to free Tom Moores, gray-haired San Quentin prisoner who was convicted 22 years ago of bombing the PreParedness Day parade in San Fran15C0. Was Mooney guilty? Has he received justice from the court? These are questions Governor-elect Olson will decide. But the Mooney case has rocked its way from court to court and from Governor to Governor in the past two decades, until it has#become an issue on which

voters in ever 100. In the Institute's survey only 15 voters in every 100 say they |have “never heard of Mooney.” The Mooney case is best known in the East and ‘along the Pacific Coast. Second, of those having an opinion about Mooney, two-thirds of the voters interviewed say they would like to see him set free. The actual vote is: For treo Mooney. ........66% Against freeing ............34% ™. The Mooney case became a sharp party issue in California’s November elections, Six Republican governors tk have denied the prisoner’s appeals or a pardon in the last 20 years, and Democratic. Governor-elect Olson promised organized labor and other friends of Mooney that he would act differently, Because of the sharp party issue in California, it is interesting to note that Demoerats and Republicans are similarly divided on the Mooney case throughout; the United States.
with an old friend whom I have known for 10 years. He was what might be, called an old-fashioned Southern conservative. We got to “reminiscing” about the old days when I first lived in Georgia. He reminded me of the days when cotton was selling at 5 cents a pound and, while he admitted that the ramifications of our Federal legislation, and especially of court decisions during the last six years, were somewhat beyond him, he allowed that some principle of crop control—cotton and tobacco—decided on by a majority of the farmers themselves, was the most democratic way to prevent the return of 5-cent cotton, He reminded me of two little banks in Warm Springs, Ga.—banks in which many thousands of dollars of local savings had been deposited—of the failure of both of these banks and the loss of the savings— and of the fact today that deposits in the banks of the United States are safe and, he remarked: “I hope that that type of liberal legislation will not be repealed.”
‘A NEW SPIRIT ABROAD ., !
He reminded me of the white men and Negroes who never saw, as the heads of families, $100 in cash
the whole year round. He reminded me of the days in 1932 when the states of the Union were going broke and losing their credit because the whole burden of the relief of the starving was Placed on their shoulders without the contribution of one dollar from the Federal Government. He reminded me of the complete lack of any social security program—of the days when a home-builder was charged 15 and 20 per cent to borrow the money to build his house——of the days when slum clearance was a beautiful ideal on paper and nowhere else. And when he left he said: “Young man, I don’t know the United States the way you do but I know this section of the nation pretty well. I don’t understand the actual working out of all these new fangled things that the Government has been starting in these past six years. But I know this section of the eountry and I want to tell you that there is a new spirit abroad in the land. I am not talking just about the fact that there is more buying power, but houses are painted that were never painted before, that our banks are safe, that our roads and schools are better. What I am talking about is that all of our young people in my section of the country think that we are ‘going places.’ ” Those two words, “going places,” seem to be an essential in modern civilization.
PROBLEMS MUST BE MET
They represent the conviction on the part of the young people of America that life never remains static: That there are better days ahead than ever before: That an opportunity to find a way of life,
here today can ever conceive, We are not only the largest and most powerful democracy in the whole world, but many other demoeracies look to us for leadership that world democracy may survive, I am speaking not of the external policies of the United States. They are exerted on the side of peace and they are exerted more strongly than ever before toward self-preservation of democracies through the assurance of peace, ; What I. would emphasize is the naintenance of successful democracy at home. Necessarily democratic methods within a nation’s life entail change—the kind of change through local processes described by Mr. Justice Cardozo—the kind of change to meet new social and economic needs through! recognized processes of government. Because we live in an era of acceleration, wz can no longer trust to the evolution of future decades to meet these new problems, They rise before us today and they must be met today. That is why the younger generation means so much in our current affairs, They are part of the piecture in their 20's without having to wait until they have passed middle
age. That is why I myself associate myself so greatly with the younger generation. That [is why I am happy and proud to become an alumnus of the University of North Carolina, typifying as it does American liberal thought through American action.
WHEELER WARNS AGAINST HYSTERIA
NEWARK, N. J, Dec. 6 (U, P.)— The United States must guard against mass hysteria, Senator Wheeler (D. Mont.) said in a speec here last night. > “The people of Germany were swept into nagziism as a result of hysterical reaction to econoinic depression,” he said. “We in America must look out for similar waves of hysteria. I myself have seen such waves sweep over this country, and sometimes I wonder if we vuselves are not going the way of Europe.”

Hanna Expected to Offer Evidence Covering Audit And Appraisal.
Public Counselor Ralph Hanna was to begin presentation of evidence today when the Public Service Commission resumed hearings on the statewide Indiana Bell Telephone Co, rate case. : Company attorneys their case two weeks ago, except for |p rebuttals, with introduction into the | record of exhibits claiming a $45,- J 185,635 property valuation for the utility’s equipment used exclusively | in intrastate operation. |p Hearings on this case have been (45 conducted intermittently ‘by the|# commission since May. ' Petitions by | J} several cities, including Indianapolis, | t originally were filed with the com-|& mission asking local phone rate investigations. These actions were combined into a statewide case at the request of the company, which claimed it would be unfair to reduce rates in specific localities without considering the effect of these reductions en the entire state system. Mr, Hanna’s evidence is expected to cover an audit and appraisal of the company’s property made by commission engineers and auditors. According to the company’s figures, total intrastate revenue for 1937 was $12,079,482.58, while expenses were $9,394,510.62, leaving net, earnings of $2,684,971.96. :

to earn a living, to raise a family in comfort and security are better today and will be better tomorrow. There may be those in the world who believe that a regimented people, whose every thought and action is directed by one man, may give some people a type of security which is pleasing to them. : But whatever convictions I have, none is stronger than my abiding belief that the security and well-being of the American people can best be served by the democratic process which have made this country strong and great. The future, however, rests not on chance alone, not on mere conservatism, mere smugness, mere fatalism, but on the affirmative action which we take in ‘America.
