Dramatic Half
Year For F, D,R,
First SI* Month* Of Roosevelt Ad
ministration Ranks As Color
fill Period.
Charlotte Observer.
President Roosevelt has closed the
first six months of his Administra
tion. a tenure In office so filled with
tense, dramatic actions, so swirling
with daring adventures, that, one
must deal with his record in terms
of days rather than months and
months rather than years. It is not
a habit with the American people to
pause In the midst of an Ad
ministration that Is barely out of
its swaddling clothes and to make
appraisements The usual course is
to wait until the four years of a
President's term has expired, and
then deal historically with its major
actions.
America has passed through no
six months in all of its checkered
career in any Wise comparable with
the swift-moving, dynamic changes
wrought by President Roosevelt, with
rucb electric energies and actions
When he promised the American
neopjp on the day of his inaugura
tion that he would at. least give
them action, they were moved to
cheers and high hopes, but none was
so sanguine at that, time as to pre
dict that such a whirligig of vital,
epoch-making incidents would mark
his handling of the Federal reins
in the space and period of mere
days.
»v i.'vuu\4vu uiui itnv v»»v- uvoin
the politician and not the quiet, se
rene conviction arid determination
of the statesman, but Mr. Roosevelt
has surpassed the expectations of
those who knew him best, in the
matter of laying aside political In
terests of a partisan nature and
flinging himself to the task of lift
ing America out of the unhappy
slough In which it. had lav buried
or four vears.
Even now, at the expiration of
the first six months, one is awe
stricken who would undertake
evaluate the succession of his deed;
or even to begin to enumerate them
in line with their relative import
ance.
Nothing has been overlooked, no
scheme has seemed, to be too un
practical, no philosophy itself . o
dreamy as not to be experimented
with, though it may have cut square
!y across all the grains of inherited
tradition and bore on its face the
semblance? of governmental forms
which to the American minds have
been held up through the genera
tion? for scorn and derision.
These months, bursting with epics
of Presidential action in the sphere
of trade and business, finance and
commerce, capita! and labor, inter
nationalism and every conceivable
interest and relation of government
have been periods of seed-planting
the harvest of which ha? not as vet
come to grain.
None knows, not even the Presi
dent surely knows, whether all of
these daring policies will fructify as
he hopes, The task is so colossal,
the issue is so intensely ramified.
th» problem so baffling and bewild
ering. that, sufficient time must be !
allowed for the new theories and
the new philosophies to w-ork them
selves out. for ill or for good, in
the affairs of his countrymen.
At least, however, this has defi
nitely been done—the President has
completely shifted the psychology of j
the American people from one of:
a hopeless dejection and defeatism
to one of more robust and buoyan
faith—faith of the people In them
selves, first of all. faith In the Pres
ident's own adventurous statesman
ship and faith in America to blud
geon for itself, out of acid wastes
of these past experiences, an order
of life more prosperous in its tem
poral blessings and more morally
and industrially fair and beneficent
in its social influences.
