The Work At a Glance By LESLIE E1CHEL. Central PreA Staff Writer NEW YORK Oct. 21—The other night this writer sal hearing a speech oi General Hugh Johnson in San Diego, over the radio. The writer was hearing it over a Detroit station. General Johnson was calm er than usual. He was presenting a well-reasoned summary’ of unem ployment conditions as they actually are. Then, he said with emphass that sinless the unemployment problem was met in the open, men woild rise up in revolt, not in revolution against the government, but in a re volt to gain the right to earn a liv ing and to provide food for them selves and their families. Whereupon the speech ceased to come over this radio station. The •pace was left blank. The writer finally picked Up the speech again over an Akron. O. sta tion. And the following day he search ad through many newspapers prior to finding an outline of the speech, •r even a mention of it. A Contrast A lew hours previously President Itoosevelt had spoken in San Diego, Hying, m effect, that all was well. In fact, unemployment was not mentioned General Johnson, retiring works progress administrator of New York City (put there by President Roose velt! and having much to do with unemployment, said everything was not well. The gf ;eral made a good argument against public works and the dole, against spending the nation's way out of the depression without meeting the issues that caused the depres sion He had just begun to be construc tive—when lie was cut off. For example, he asserted tfr%i we cannot meet the problem until we know wha. we have to meet He proposed, first, a registration of all the unemployed, as to jobs ttiey could fill, and all the unfit. He would have a swift registration—as he carried on the draft during war time. He would obtain all the data necessary in less than a week. Then he would set about to meet the task. • • • But none of the political leaders actually desire to meet the task. Meeting the task u'ould involve the easting aside of all platitudes, the destruction of all special privileges. The reforms’* of the New Deal would rank as nothing beside such an evolution. In reality, many persons would lather face revolution than to go through with an evolution in the body economic.
