CAN YOU ANSWER

Simon Newcomb, the American
astronomer, who turned his mind to
economies and wrote a book On that
subject, imagined visitor from Mars
conversing with man on earth to
some such effect as this:
why is everybody so terribly de-
pressed?"
Because there is great depres-
sion in trade and industry"
And what is that?"
There has been great overpro-
duction of things, people have been
thrown out of employment, and
everybody is poor"
"Overproduction of whatf"
''Of everything nearly; of flood,
which is so cheap that agriculture is
ruined; of manufactures, which are
SO low in price that there is no long.
er any profit in production"
''Then the reason everybody is poor
is that they have produced more
goods than they can consumer Your
country is overflowing with goods
and yet you think yourselves poor ?"

OPINIONS OF

Fancy Flights of Space Writers.

While there is no gainsaying the fact
that a large number of people have been
without employment during the past
three months, still it is an open ques-
ton as to whether unemployment af.
fected any greater number of people
than during corresponding period a
year ago. Figures for New York City
alone might be typical of the entire
country and just as trustworthy, as they
varied according to views of those rash
enough to quote their estimate of the
number of unemployed. The mere fact
that few men, styling themselves as
leaders" of the unemployed created a
sensation for few days until their
scheme of exploitation was exposed, is
no criterion to go by. Since these dem
onstrations" have lost their novelty for
the space-writing reporter and the SEN
sational press, the situation in the labor
market has resumed the normal, with
every one hopeful for improvement in
the near future.-The Garment Worker.
