The Years of the Locust
= OF THE most eventful decades in modern histery has ended. And
this nation enters a new decade during which, unless all signs are
wrong, its pecple must face and grapple with problems, issues and re-
sponsibilities of the most fo r-reaching character.
The 1930s will be known to the historians of the future as the
years of one of the greatest and longest, depressions this or any other
nation ever experienced. They will be known as years of experiment,
of trial and terror, of the weighing of our old values and our old tradi-
tions. And they will be known too as vears in which the Democratic
process was consistently attacked by of those who called them-
selves its friends. as well as were its frankly avowed
enemies,

some
by those who
From the international point of view, the tragic ‘30's came to a
cynically fitting end in that most ghastly and unnecessary of events—a
war which embraces much of the world. In nation after nation the art:
of peace have of neces: itty been put aside, to the end that war may be
prosecuted to the utmost.
ials and machines
And war destroys more than men and mater-
and economies and states. It destroys those essential
liberties for which men have fought and died in holy cause: ever since
the world we know began. It destroys those spiritual values which are
at the root of ull artistic, cultural and humanitarian achievement. I
has been truly said thet in modern war there can be no victors—ther:
are only the vanquished. It is irenit commentary on the times i
which we live that nations which are fighting this war in the nam:
of threatened Democracy, have been forced to use the methods of th:
dictators in order to mmeet the enemy on its own totalitarian terms.
The greatest blessing which this nation possesses teday is its physi-
cal remoteness from the conflict abroad. That is a pesition enjoyed by
no other of the world's major powers. There is profound wisdom in the
attitude of the great majority of the American people who say, in effec
—"We can keep out of war—and we will keep out of war.” There is nc
war party in this country--no responsible statesman urge; our partici-
pation. We can all feel a deep and abiding thankfulness that this is so
Never before was it so important that we Americans keep our heads, ir
order that we may alo keep our liberties. For should this country
become involved in war, Democracy would vanish here, as swiftly anc
as surely as it has vanished abroad.
Turning to our own internal problems, our task is great. The
gratifying improvement that has recently taken place throughout our
economic structure must not be allowed to blind us to the unpleasant
truth that not one of those issues which we were forced to face at the
etart of depression has been solved. Most of them have become more
complicated ond has nearly trebled ‘in the past decade and will soon
reach the present legal limit of §45,000,000,000. The immense expendi-
tures for relief centinue, even though business has much improved and
uremployment has consequently heen reduced. The agricultural situa-
tien, in spite of a long covie; of extremely expensive “farm relief”
ures, remeins tangled and unsatisfactory. '
On top of that, there is still strong clique high in government
whose attitude toward business can be described only as strongly inimical.
This is the group which backs any and all measures designed to put
government into tax-subsid’zed competition with heavily taxed private
enterprise—which stays awake nights thinking up new ways of saddling
business with re: Arictive laws and punitive class taxes—which encourages
labor excesses to the full—and which does all in its power to prevent
stability, and to keep chaos and uncertainty in the saddle. It is a re-
markable tribute to the courage and staying power of American business
that it has managed to progress as much as it has when confronted with
such handicaps.
Summing up, we have plenty to do at home during the years that
stretch zhead. The current Congress and those which follow have their
work cut for them—but satisfactory results will be secured only if the
people as a whole are awake and watchful, aré conscious of their needs,
are deeply aware of their Americen heritatge and way of life. For in
spite of the unproven claimss of extremists, our only real progress has
come from productive, employing industry, working under the American
system of free enterprise which brought us from a minor power to a
world power in a century and a half.

Here in Amcrica we have all that is needed to bri ing a greater pros-
perity thar we have ever known—the industries, the men, the resources.
