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.

I’resident Truman is noted for his
economical traits. 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. 'This means
that the policy of our goveiyment
