ly moved that the sale of the $50, 600
bond issue be proceeded with at once.
Commissioner Smith heartily seconded
the motion and it was rushed through
by a two TO one vote, Mayor Hendee
voting no loudly with all his might.
He wanted it to be known that this is
not the time to offer five per cent bonds
for sale. He feared they may go a beg
ging. This is the sequel to the Culver
and Mowitz suits, judgment has been
granted by default as former Mayor
Smith and former Commissioner Ryan
laid down and refused to put up a

Lydia J. Mech, president of the
Wild wood Civic club, accompanied by
the ex-Secretary, Mrs. Kathryn DON
aghy, called on the commissioners on
Tuesday to ascertain what progress
was being made toward providing a
public rest room for women in the
vicinity of Magnolia avenue and board
walk. To the dismay of everybody
present, the Mayor stated that on &C.
count of the scarcity of material and
labor it would be impossible to build
the proposed new structure this sea-
son, and for which purpose the sum of
5000 was appropriated. The lease of
some suitable building or rooms for the
present season may be a temporary
solution of the problem. Next year
building conditions may be different.
Last season the Civic club had charge
of q room on the boardwalk in the
vicinity of Juniper avenue.
Mrs. G. w. Wagner, owner of the
Garfield hotel, and the Misses Helen
and Kathryn Kerrigan, owners of the
Blenheim- Cheviot apartments on east
Garfield avenue, demonstrated with
the commissioners about the baseball
park and fence obstructing the cea
view at the foot of Garfield avenue,
and asking for its removal from the
beach altogether, or at least to a point
farther down. The park was spoken
of as "sn eyesore and a disgrace to
Wild wood" and the boards around
the grounds as "a hideous and insight
ly backyard fence"
Commissioner Smith stated at Tues
days meeting that John Harris, of
Camden, would be present at the COM
m~issioners' meeting next Tuesday,
June 18th, at which time, he averred a
writ from the Court OF Chancery would
be served on the aity's representatives,
ordering the tearing up and removal Of
the present boardwalk from Schellen-
ger to Crosse n This informa-
ton seemed to frighten some of the
people and Commissioner Bright said:

is served" Thereupon he immediate

Which Way Are The TRADE Winds Really Blowing

profits ratios-but a panic, a business depression, a period
of radical commercial curtailment, NO!
What 1 am principally quarreling with is the super
fetal character of the judgment that a few self-appointed
calamity-howlers always insist on applying to a business
situation whenever it is anything but 100 per cent rosy.
They like to interpret a prospec tive, natural easing-off
of abnormally high prices as a bottom-dropped-out affair.
They view an upset labor situation as forecasting an
industrial ~tragedy-entirely. forgetting, apparently, that
a labor crisis never comes when production OF living ne
cessites is tremendously under normal requirements.
To them the unparalleled accumulation of gold reserves
in this country at present, with its unavoidable influence
tow ard high prices, high wages aud popular extrava-
gance, means nothing at all!
Two years ago everyone was proclaiming, truthfully,
that " business in the United States is just entering an
era of the greatest prosL erity it has ever Known
Righf!-and we ARE in it, and, if we will merely ignore or
suppress the stupid eroakers, we shall easily continue in pros
periY for many years!
If 1 should epitomize the worthwhile statements made
to me of late by the worthwhile men of business, they
would come down to about this:
"Let's not even dream of poor business while all
about us we have, and must for a long time have,
elements that make business secure"
Those who are the real thinkers can see business in the
United States on nothing but a solid foundation-made
so by practically every economic factor required for COM
mercial security.
Yes, prices are going to be revised downward, some
time; broadcast personal extravaganza is going to run
it's course, and prosperous sanity return labor is going
to rub its eyes clear and jump enthusiastically into the
pleasant and prof able work Of making production more
nearly match the demand for it.
Who are going to s~traighten out the situation, and
bring Americas business to it's proper basis without inter-
rupting it?
The American people fhemseIVes-ofc course!
They have always been able to get about anything on
earth that they wanted. They are always the final con-
trolling factor in our business life, If they wish to be.
They don't want business depression.
Therefore, We are not going to have it.
Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1920-06-11

1t is high time that a certain type of American bust
ness men cease worrying, and take comfort from some
plain, easily-discoverable facts.
sense a tendency on the part of a few business men
here and there to construe present unusual commercial
conditions as the inevitable forerunner of panic condl-
tions.
stupid inclination among certain thoughtless persons to
shrug their shoulders at any mild suggestion that the
business of this country is not necessarily going to blow
up with a loud and resonant crash within the next
eighteen months!
If one has the interest to chase this pessimism to its
source, then puts that source under the magnifying glass
Of intelligent, uninfamed business analysis, of what does
he find it to consist?
Just this Commodities are very high the consuming
public is crying more nearly in unison every day for
lower prices labor is in an aggravated state OF unrest;
and commercial, social and political condlUons In Europe
are generally bad.
Granted-every bit of it
But, even so, bear with us while we decline to become
frenzied over these things, and allow us for a moment to
put the facts through a1aboratoryt test.
Which way are the " trade winds " really blowing?
So far as / know, or can find out, no business depres-
sion in the United States ever occurred in or Immediately
followed a period in which money was anywhere nearly
as plentiful as it is today and has been for two years
with a record-breaking gold balance to justify and even
necessffafe it.
So far as I know, no commercial cataclysm in this
country of ours has ever come at a time of conspicuous
interpretation of necessities.
And so far as 1 know, or can find out, no real business
paralysis has ever accompanied or Immediately sue
ceeded a time when the workingman-or the farmer
was anywhere nearly so much the master OF his financial
destiny as he admittedly is today.
Truly, / think the well-known volatile temper of the
American business man has never been more str1k1ngly
demonstrated than in this silly inclination OIL the part
of a few of him to mistake the probably approaching
readiusfmenf of commercial matters for a stagnation.
And here, L think, we get the real answer: We shall
have a clarifying of industrial relations, a STRENGTHENING. OUT

crop up from time to time is high kick

their too solid flesh will melt.

Dead Town Coming
Back to Life in West

After being dead for sixty I've years,
the town Of Pawnee Kas. on the FIT.
Riley military reservation has come 20
life again.
The original town. founded In 1854. was
wiped out Of existence a year later by
an edict by jefferson Davis then secre-
tary OF war under President Pierce, the
Detroit News recalls.
II had been brought into being by m
association Of territorial officeholders
and army officers at TT Riley, and the
nrst capitol 81 Kansas. a large stone
building previously used as ware
house. was located there. The town site
was excepted from the military rescrva-
tlon when the first survey was made In
1854. but the order Of Jefferson Davis
changed this survey to include the town
within the military area and its inhabi-
tauts were ordered OF on Aug. 81, 1855.
Those who refused to go had their
houses torn down over their heads aud
were driven away Mt the point OF bay
onets.
For more than half n century tue iowa
Itself has been only a memory, only the
former statehouse remaining.
Now It has again sprung into exist
cnce through the action of the military
authorities.

Lyric Actor in Jail on
Word of Girl, Age Ia

Harry Rapp, q, Connecticut, N. Y, and
Ed Smith, SO, Brooklyn, N. Y, both
actors, now playing at the Lyric theater,
we're arrested today by police.
Rapp is held or a charge of contribut-
ing to delinquency and Smith is wanted
by the authorities at TT. Wayne on a
charge of child neglect.
Rapp was arrested by Lieut.. Jones
when he was observed on the street with
n girl, IA years old, belonging to a we'll
known family of the city.
Lieut.. Jones said he thought 1t strange
for such young girl to be on the street
with a man of the age Of Rapp, SO he
accosted Rapp.
The girl then said Rapp intended TAX
ing her to his room at the Plaza hotel.
Rapp, who has been playing a violin
and a piano at the same time at the
Lric this week, is in Jail IN default of
$500 gond.
Smith also was committed to the jail.
