LOYMENT BODY
Will ANALYzE CAUSE
OF BUSINESS CHANGE

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Oct. Study
of the economic factors responsible
for recurring business depression with
consequent variation in the numbers
of workers is to be undertaken this
week by the subcommittee of the Ma
tional Conference of Unemployment in
an effort to arrive at a permanent
policy.
Permanent preventive measures
against unemployment suggested by
the advisory committee include, in
broad terms, compilation of essential
information, long range planning OF
public works, and mitigation of sea
sonal irregularities of employment.
Under these heads the suggestions
cover practically the entire economic
problem of the nation considering the
various factors of prices, freight rates,
foreign trade, production and con
sumption, and the position of the fed
eral government during recurrent de,
pressions.
Finding the Safe Medium
Volume OF employment, according to
the economic experts, follows season.
al fluctuations of business, and a pol.
icy is sought for regularizing employ.
ment both at the bottom of the down
curve and at the top of the upswing
1T is just where the screws must
be put upon initiation that citizen edu
cation will do its best service" the
advisory committee reports. Con.
gress will be tempted to inflationist
measures. Bankers will need even
more real courage at that point than
during the encouragement Of depres.
sion. We must cease the meaningless
use of the word 'pessimist', and Ger.
tainly cease to be afraid of being
called one.
