TOO MUCH GOVERNMENT'
DRIFT IN UNITED STATES A drift toward "too much Government" was advanced by Mr. J. R. Finlay, an American fourist at present visiting Christchurch, as the main factor in the appearance of a certain amount of internal dissension in the United States of America, during recent months. Mr. Finlay said that when he left America some monjjjs ago the country was in the midst of a boom, and the natural reaction had apparently materialised since. Many of the more conservative did not approve of the president's "new deal"; but the trouble, in a nutshell, was that the expense of Government had been multiplied by 12 in the last 20 yearsenough to have made many people uneasy. The drift was. like the position in other countries, toward too much government regulation—toward the development of a bureaucracy, and everyone was more or less mystified about what was to happen next.
