Finds Business Cheer in West,
Late Gloom Dispelled by Hope

hope in the future, and hope is the
handspring of all economic activity.
The spirit Of the people in the west
Is stimulating, to say the least. Ag-
riculturally speaking, they have gone
through what was perhaps the most
acute crisis in their history. The
problem last fall was to remedy the
agricultural and live stock demorali-
zation comprehensively and quickly
enough to save the producers from
being put through forced liquidation.
Representatives of varied interests
and groups of producers all through
the middle west and the southwest
testify to the record of success and
of rapid improvement in conditions.
This improvement is, believe, here
to stay. 1t rests on a solid founda-
tion and is being reflected through
out the whole business structure of
the western states.
To sum up, our great agricultural
Industries are rapidly getting on
on a sound basis business is bound to
be better everywhere in our country.

Senator Protests Using Naval Radio
for Campaign Speeches. -.


Protest against the use of the naval
radio by individuals for political pur-
poses has been made to Navy Depart

Utah, democrat. Senator King said
yesterday that the fact that Senator
Harry New of Indiana, republican. had
made a campaign address to voters in
Indiana over the naval radio has
been called to his attention, and also
that other members of Congress are
planning to make a similar use of the
radio stations.
II was informed at the department"
said Senator King yesterday, ''fhat
there was no intention Of using the ma
val radio in q partisan manner. and that
democratic members OF Congress were
at liberty to use it as well as repub-
licans. My contention, however, was
that the naval radio. paid for by the
government, should not be used for
the benefit Of the political aspirations
of any individual. ! suggested that
If they have the facilities to spare,

Chairman of the War Finance
Corporation.


Chairman of the War Finance
Corporation.
Six months ago ! made an extended
trip through the west to study agri-
cultural conditions and to organize
the work of the War Finance Cor
poration under the agricultural
credits act.
I found a state of Decentralization
everywhere among all classes of
agricultural producers Farmers and
stockmen generally were discouraged.
They were in acute distress and they
could not see the way out. Breeding
herds were being sacrificed on
wholesale scale. Immature stock was
being sent to the block. Corn was
selling around 20 cents at country
elevator points, with practically no
demand for it even at that low figure,
and a similar situation existed with
reference to other agricultural COM
modities. Banks were in danger
ously overextended condition. Loans
could not be collected and deposits
were being drawn down.
A great change has been wrought
IN six months. In the past three
weeks have travelled through Iowa,
Nebraska. Missouri. Kansas. Okla
homa, Texas. Colorado, Wyoming,
New Mexico and Arizona. and into
California. I have met with farm
ers. stockmen, business men and
bankers-men who are in position to
know the trend of conditions-and
md a new spirit among them.
Discouragement and despair have
given away to confidence and hope.
Tho decentralization that existed six
months ago has been overcome, and
they are going ahead with courage
and energy. They are not yet conn
pletely out of the woods, but broader
markets and the increased values Of
agricultural commodities enable them
. see the light ahead. They have
