I- CAMDEN FOOD SHOP Babson Discuses President Truman Babson Park, Mass., April—The death of President Rosevelt meens more than the loss of a personal friend or even a great President. It means, the end of one era and the beginning of a hew era. It may mean a 50 per cent return to such Amerl- can conservatism as prevailed before the election of President Roosevelt. Certainly, it means a return to a Democratic form of government in contrast to the domination of a great personality. The war will continue to be prose cuted with utmost Intensity. Presi dent Truman will not Interfere with the commanding generals and ad mirals. It is^probable that Secretaries Stimson and Foirestal will continue In the Cabinet until peace finally comes. Mr. Roosevelt's death, how- .ever, does throw greater responsibility upon Mr. Churchill. President Truman is reported to be more open-minded than his predeces sor in connection with the peace terms. He has insisted upon “uncon ditional surrender” for Germany, but to my knowledge he has not denuuided this for Japan. Certainly, the Ad ministration will not be as friendly, economically, to Russia. It is also probable that the small nations have lost a good friend in the death of President Roosevelt. •Wine S0PM99 01999 9900r t • < ( And daddy will ba proud of hit little ton, when he comet home, and hat a chance to get acquainted with the baby bom while hit father wat facing death on the battlefieldl *It*t up'to all of ut to aet to it that thit baby's father, and |t!he thoutandt more like him have thi^chanoa to come home!

Instead of being the only son in a wealth home, he-was born a poor boy. Some of my friends in Washington refer to him as a “second Calvin Coolldge." 'This means that taxes will be reduced sooner than they otherwise would be and that the National debt will be kept down to lower proportions. The coun try will be lees generous with for eign nations.. Many articles have appeared the past 'Week headed. “The New Deal Is Dead." I do not believe these state ments. The common people of all the world are “on the march.” Frank lin Roosevelt did not make conditions, but rather, existing conditions made him. It is; however, fair to assume that the New Deal will go into the ice-box for a few years, while its ardent friends will be in' the dog house. This doubtless means re newed courage to business men with| higher stock prices. Since Preeident Roosevelt took con trol of our Government, boards, and commissions have, *to a large extent, taken the place of Congressional acts. Some of these—such as the War La bor board and the Securities and Ex change commission—have tremendous power. But' this -power can be con trolled 100 per cent by the President through bis appointments.
