Growth of Confidence.

While there is not as yet any remark
able Improvement in general trade, there
is certainly more activity than a month
ago, and confidence seems to be growing
all the time. Those people who take
broad view of the industrial situation
believe tLat the la supply OF money
and credit at all the financial centers of
the world is bound to stimulate enter
prise of all sorts. 1t seems to be best
opinion that as the year progresses gen.
eral trade will feel the impulse of the
better sentiment, whicl is now becoming
so universal. A favorable feature is that
the betterment already encountered is
not confined TO any particular section OF
the world or any one special industry,
but taking its cue from the metal trades,
is gradually spreading everywhere.
The influence of the income tax pay
ments, amounting to some s7o.ooo,00o or
$50 100000 and collectable in June of this
year, likely will become a pronounced
factor in the money market this spring.
1t is presumed that Secretary McAdoo,
upon whose action in this case the entire
situation hinges, will deposit this tre-
mendous sum in the new depository
banks in various parts of the country.

I
| Legislation dealin with tuberculosis
has been enacted in 48 states and ter

Only in the states of Arizona, Idaho,

State tuberculosis sanatoria to the
1Qumber of AZ have been established in
80 different states. Special laws pro-
viding for the establishment of local
hospitals by municipalities or counties
have been passed in IA states. In "a

day in September and thereafter the

Executive Committee shall outline a
special plan of work for each year in
ample time before the Socialist Week,

Much of the success of Red Week
in Germany was, no doubt, due to the
powerful organization of the Social
Democratic party in that county," de
clares National Secretary Lanfersiek.
'.'They have been trained to do this
kind of work for years. Yet feel that
it will be but short time before the
members of the American Socialist
party will be trained to de equally eff
feetive work. 49,
The opportunity awaits us now as
never before to increase our party
membership. and build up our Socialist
presss," he continued. "There is a
profound unrest Throughout the land.
Within the past year we have had
three of the most Aattention-c cling
strikes in our histo6y-West Virginia,
Michigan and Colorado. These strikes
have made Socialists and Socialist
sympathizers in every part of the ma
ion. It is now our duty to get them
into the Socialist party and to see
that they read Socialist publicati"--
and literature. That is the obpect OF
Socialist Week.
