BY IEMUEL BOLLES

THIS fact is outstanding; The re-
action from the booming days OF
the war found America as hopelessly
unprepared for peace as it had been
for war. AS surely as fatigue follows
exertion, this slump was bound to
come.
The leaders of our nation should
have known it; if indeed the possibil
ity ever occurred to them, they have
blithely disregarded it while condl'
tons have gone from bad to worse
in the last year.
The nation has been Laundering
about in economic distress, hoping
better times were just around the
corner, but without an evident effort
CT anyone to provide relief should
the worst come.
If Congress ever thought it pos
sible that a period of extreme bust
ness depression, with its subsequent
black days of widespread unemploy'
ment, would follow the flourishing
days of war, its thoughts, endeavors,
and attainments during the last two
sessions do not record it.
Unwilling to Quiet Down
Congress alone is not to blame,
however All of Us, with the firing
of the last shot three years ago,
feverish with the wars excitement
and swesled with our ACCOMPLISH
ments, found themselves all too un-
willing then to resume the quiet ways
of peace.
Our minds, too long occupied with
devlslng ways and means of destruc-
ton, did not Immediately swing back
TO methods of construction. Our
young men, uprooted from farm and
town, from office and factory, had
been tossed Unfortunately into a
cauldron of turmoil; they emerged in
blaze of glory and found the farm
and the town, the office and the fac
tory strange and tame and back to
work irksome.
We didn't settle down because i:
