That's what's wrong with the New Deal. That's why it's time for a change. The reason for this long continued failure is two-fold. First, because

And why? Because, he said, “we can keep people in the army about as cheaply as we could ereate an agency for them when they are out.” For six months we have been hearing statements from the New Deal underlings in Washington that this was the plan.

The New Deal was founded on the philosophy that our frontiers are behind us and all we have left to do is to quarrel over the division of what we have. Mr. Roosevelt, himself, said in 1932: “Our industrial plant is built . .. our task is not . . . necessarily producing more goods. It is the soberer, less dramatic business of administering resources and plants already in hand.” Easily installed. 3-Pt. De Brush: bu The New Deal operated on that| length. flexible wire handle. philosophy for seven straight peacetime years with unlimited power. At _the end of that time in 1939, the New Deal gave its own official verdict on its failure by this cold admission: “The American economic machine is stalled on dead center.” The administration knows that the war, with all its tragic toll of death, debt and destruction, is the only thing that saved'it. They are deadly afraid that they will go back to resumption of their own failures. That is why they are afraid to let 69c men out of the army. That is why, , soatl they say it is cheaper to keep men small leaks In Tocilers, in the army than to let them come] home, Now let us get another point straight for the record right here at the beginning. In the last hundred years we have had 11 periods during which business and employ- | ment were well below normal Dur-| Ing that period, the average de-| ression lasted two years, In the! entire hundred years the longest depression of all was five years and the next longest was four years— up to the last one. When this administration took office the depression was already over three years old. Then what happened? In 1934, when the depression was then five years old— longer than any other in a century, we still had 12 million unemployed. By 1940, the depression was almost eleven years old. This administration had been in power for seven! straight years and there were still | 10 million Americans unemployed. |
