(Auto caster)—Your correspondent had the privilege a tew days ago of talking and listening to the three most important men in the Ad ministration on three successive days: President Roosevelt on Thursday, General Hugh John- soff—an Friday and . Professor RexfWd Tagwell on Saturday. All of them talked freely, thoulih rnnchh o’ywbat they said was not for ptihlfllwtion. Nothing that the President said can be quoted, but it is entirely permis sible to express an opinion on his state of mind and the direction in which be is heading, deduced from what he said. The talk with him lasted nearly two hours, with General Johnson nearly as long and w-ith Dr. Tugwell about Elledge, a member of the facul ty. A number of Mr. Blledge’s Elays have found a ready market and the play to i>e given under to direction is said to be un- ■anally good. Rev. P. A. Hix, pastor of the Pirst Baptist church in Boone.; Certain conclusions are ines- capabl&t they were noticeable in what all three men said.

Third, a definite purpose to slow down on Government •bor rowings and substitute for Gov ernment financing of private business new means to stimulate investment of private capital. Fourth, a definite intention to resist any further inflationary measures, especially such as con tained in the effort to compel the President to remonetize sil ver on the 16-to-l or any other basis. Fifth, a definite, deep-rooted conviction that what the Admin istration is doing is "right.” On that last point, a high Fed eral official recently compared the written Gonsli'ution to the old wooden man-of-war "Consti tution,'' so lately rehabilitated and sent on a tour of the na tion's seaports. It was a fine ship i in its day, and everybody reveres it and respects it for the service it did in the War of 1812, but it to. sea>-^t5>'fi|ibli Rtgbteons Aim There is a fim te^or, almost religious In tts toneT^ilPhen some of the New Dealers' talk about the necessity for'-soclal.' regener ation by Governmental', dictum and financial aid. - Taking up the points enumer ated In their order, the tone, rather than the words of all three of. ^these 'Administration leaders TnAlcated ‘that, although criticism had been invited, it was not relished. Indeed, one of them used the word "wicked” In dis cussing certain attacks upon Ad ministration policies. Professor Tugwell was especially sensitive at the use of the word “regi mentation” in connection with the organization of.business, in dustry and agriculture. He thought it a wrong use of the word: It was a word he woqld use to describe the conditions under which men employed In industry worked. The same day he said that, the President sign ed the Bankhead cotton restric tion hill, of which Senator Bank- head and his nephew. Represen tative Bankhead, were the spon sors. It put a heavy penalty on any cotton grower who grows more than his quota of cotton this year. The President took pains to explain that it had been agreed to in advance by more than 90 percent of the cotton growers who had answered the Government's questionnaire. Johnson and NR.A General Johnson was insistent that the Government had no pur pose to impose harmful restric tions upon business and indus try; all that NRA was trying to do was to get business interests into cooperation for the common good. He was distressed at the idea that anything like force was being used or contemplated, and the notion that small busi ness men were getting the worst of it under NRA was entirely wrong, he said. He did not think the Government had been mov ing too fast in imposing the codes, because any of them could be changed over night if it proved oppressive or didn't work. The purpose of speed had been to try to get men back to work quickly. The next big effort to put men back to work will he in the building trades, by means of a 0!

Along with that will go other plans to encourage the Federal Reserve Banks to i lend capital funds to industry. Tujovell Stops Critics Nobody discounts Professor Tugwell his immense mental ability and his thorough under standing of the principles of bus iness and industry and what has been wrong with the industrial system in the past. The opposi tion has tried to discredit him with the public and with the President on the ground that lu is a theorist who does not und- ; erstand the human difficulties of making men behave according to a fixed plan, but he took the wil'd out of that the other day when he declared that no police force could be created large .-'iiough to make Americans do what they do not want to do. he was interested only in that met with gener- i and I programs al public acceptance. Opposition to the New Deal is now being largely focussed upon the allegation that what the Ad ministration is doing, in many of ‘ts aspects, is not and never was 'iiy of the Government's business. This is ,'articularly di rected at such projects as the Tennessee Valley development, the proposal to put more land under irrigation in various re gions and move farmers off poor land on to this presumably good land, and to move people out of the cities on to “subsistence homesteads.” One man very high in Admin istration circles has predicted a great reduction in the population of many large cities as a result of the New Deal. In every task we undertake w" always have In view some point that we wish to accomplish. This motive was true In the Civil War. The North had in view three outstanding points that they wished to accomplish. T^iree points were to: (1) open the Mississippi River, (2) blockade foe southern ports; (3) capture Richmond, the capltol of the Confederacy. The South realised these plans and tried to prevent them by establishing an eastern and a western line of defense. However, the North succeeded In accomplishing its task. The. Mis sissippi River was opened by the capture of New Orleans and Vicksburg and by destroying the western line of defense. The Southern ports were blockaded by North's launching their ships in them and preventing com merce between the south and oth er nations. Richmond was cap tured by campaigns against it. There were six of these cam paigns. But we are not so much interested in the number of cam paigns as we are in the results.

The battle was well plann ed and well fought. However, the Federals were forced to re treat to Alexander near Wash ington City. It WAS not until aft er this battle that the North rea lized the size of their task. It is thought by many that if the men had been available, his bat tle would have ended the war. The next campaign was the battle of Fair Oaks. General Mc Clellan started an advance on | Richmond by the York River and j Fredericksburg. Since there was | always a chance that some Con- j federate force might dart upon | Washington City through the Shenandoah Valley, Banks and Fremont with small union forces were placed in the valley to pre- j vent this. General Johnston who was In the valley soon made 1 havoc of these arrangements and j detained McClellan for a month | in besieging Yorktown. Johnston i . soon left Yorktown and moved; toward Richmond. In following him McClellan's army was brought in a very dangerous po sition. A sudden rising in the Chicahominy River cut hi.s army in two. Johnston seized this op-! portunity and in the bloody bat tle of Fair Oaks the Gnion army barely excaped destruction. John ston was fatally woniidt'd in the battle and Robert E. Lee was put in command of the Confed erate forces. The third campaign against Richmond was the second battle of Bull Run.

He was compelled to cross the river and assault the hill in face of a mur- 'Jerous fire. The Union Army was defeated with a loss of 30,000. The next campaign was the bat tle of Chancellorsville. The gen erals in this battle were Lee asd Hooker. Hooker crossed the Rap pahannock and took a poetRion at Chancellorsville, preparatory to attacking Lee, but Lee not waiting the attack, inflicted, upon Hooker a severe defeat.
