Times, in Editorial, Lauds Fact- Finding Group. NEW YORK.--When the Re publican National committee announced the formation of a staff of 50 economic experts to analyze the Roosevelt policies, the New York Times, an independent Democratic newspaper, declared in an editorial tbat "there was g»od reason for placing the assembling of facts and reasoning in the hands of other (than the New peal) economists." The Republican research department is heeded by Dr. Olln O. Saxon, professor of business administration at Tale university. Dr. Saxon voted for Roosevelt In 1932 "to his regret," and says that many of his associates In the fact-finding work at the Q. O. P. Washington headquarters have been life-long Democrats. *• Step "Entirely Logical.". The Times' editorial, entitled "Campaign Research," read In part_as follows: "That the Republican National Committee should, according to the announcement of Chairman Fletcher, have organized s committee of economists to 'analyze the New Deal,' to criticize, In the light of economic science. the principles or programs of action adopted by the present Administration, is In many respects entirely logical The Administration's concrete policies. In the field not only of taxation and Government finance, but of currency, agriculture, labor apd social problems, have been pursued under the Inspiration of professional experts advocating Ideas or theories of their own, often departing widely from the opinions of other experts in the esme fields. When It should become the duty of the opposition party, In the course of the Presidential campaign, to criticise or attack these executive policies, or any of them, there Was good reason for placing the assembling of facts and reasoning In the bands of other trained economists. A solid basis for argument would be provided by this 'Research Division' ef the national committee. This should be a welcome contribution to serious discussion of such policies, Instead of mere platform dcnunclatios and recrimination. Voting Public Is Judge. "To what extent the work ef ihe economic committee will contribute definitely to the formulation of publtc opinion on theee questions and to the determination of political action Is perhaps more debatable. The term *Braln Trust,' used ever since the Inauguration of 1983 to describe tbe experts whose Judgment tbe Administration bad adopted, has not been employed very respectfully by the com mnnity at large, and newspaper columns have at once applied to the proposed Republican commission the title of 'Republican Brain Trust.' Furthermore, the theories of tbe Administration Brain Trust have been more or less obscured by the concrete developments following sppllcatlon of their t(]eaa In legislative or administrative practice. It will remain to be seen bow far the genera] voting public Is Interested primarily In the economic facts underlying sucb governmental action." "Dr. Saxon, In explanation of bis department, stressed the point that Its purpose Is "simply to assemble Information which Is accurate and truthful and make It available to the Republican party." Pr. Saxon said further: "We have no desire (nor would we be permitted) to impose" any pet theory or bobby of cur own upon tbe Republican party. When we have established the facts our Job Is done. If this is a trust, It Is a Common Sense Tnatr ' Eduction Via WPA Mobile.

BILLIONS GO QUICKLY Washington, O. C.--At the end oi the first three-quarters of the cur rent fiscal year the United States national debt was $247 for every man, woman and child in the coun try. The Roosevelt administration during that period spent $247 every one and one-tenth seconds of every day and night, Sundays and holidays Included, during those nine months,.'. ? Bare $1,000,000 AAA Payments Wallace Admits Big Checks to Sugar Firms, But tyithholds Names. WASHINGTON, D. C--The United States government paid two sugar firms more than one million dollars each on AAA contracts for not raising sugar cane, Henry A. Wallace, secretary of agriculture, revealed in a letter t<$ Senator Ellison D. Smith of South Carolina. Secretary Wallace made the admissions after several days of dodging Senator Arthur 11. Vandenherg's (Mich.) demands that all AAA payments of more than $10,000 be made public. With Sen. Vandenberg's resolution unanimously reported out of the senate committee on agriculture, Wallace submitted a list of such payments, but Withheld names. Florida Payment Tops Million. Wallace disclosed that one Florida sugar cane producing corporation had been paid $1,007,665 for cutting cane acreage, while a Hawaiian firm will be paid $1,022,037. A Puerto Rican concern benefited to the extent of $901,064. The average corn-hog benefit payment In Iowa was $400, but one California hog farm was paid $150,000, Wallace said. Sen. Vandenberg had charged that there had been one corn-hog payment of $219,825. Although tbe average Kansas wheat contract was approximately $800, another California farming corporation received $29,398, with the landlord getting $5,870 and the tenant $23,528. One $84,000 Cotton Payment. The average cotton contract was less than $1,500, but Wallace said payments of $84,000 had t>een made Jointly to an Arkansas company and the Federal Farm Credit administration. Rice and tobacco farms came in for their share of the larger windfalls from Uncle Sam for not raising the products they are In business to raise. A Florida tobacco concern got $41,454, while a Louisiana rice grower was paid $59,285. Nineteen rice growers received payments of more than $25,000 each last year. Of special Interest was tbe third largest cotton benefit payment. It went to Oscar Johnston, manager of tbe Federal Cotton Pool and for nearly three years associated" with the AAA, and amounted to $54,200. Secretary Wallace admitted that 28 Puerto Rlcan producers bad received payments of more than $10,000, with prospects that their total benefits would be several times that amount. Sugar payments of more than $10,000 each went to 25 beet producers in California and Colorado; 73 cane producers In Louisiana and 39 in Hawaii. Even one peanut grower was paid $3,000. THE CRACKER BARREL Tha housewife, uho paid the processing Uses ut higher food prices, trill be glad to learn that the was contributing to a million- dollar AAA benefit for a Florida sugar planter Someone delving Into the list of big contributors to the last Democratic campaign suggests that while Roosevelt was driving the" "money changers" •rom the temple, Farley, cup in hand, stood at the entrance begging shekels from the fleeing evil-doers.
