First, there is the Raw Material
Group, or iron and steel companies,
coppers and oils, crop and live stock
producers. Second, there is the
Transportation Group, the railroads
and steam ships. Third, there is the
Manufacturing Group with its auto
mobile factories, textile mills and
the other fabricators of finished pro-
ducts. Fourth, and finally there is
the Distribution Group, headed by
the wholesale houses, mail order
firms, chain stores and finishing
with the multitude Of retail establish
ments. -sGs 80 :. HI T,
t.Now what happens to the Big
Four Groups when a business depres-
sion hits the country? The first to
suffer is the Manufacturing Group.
This partly the result Of financial
stringency. Take the recent depres-
sion, it appeared first among shoe
factories, textile mills, and other fac
tories. In a broad way these are
concentrated in the Northeast Sec
tion of the country, and it was ex-
actly in this region that trouble first
appeared. This was entirely char
acteristic.4 It is what happened also
in earlier periods Of business depres-
sion. Farsighted executives fore
saw long in advance, that this would
be the first part Of the country to
weaken, because it is the home Of
the Manufacturing Group.
"Then comes the next act in the
drama of depression. AS the logical
result of curtailed manufacturing,
we get a slump in the Raw Material
Group. When a shoe factory shuts
down, orders for leather shrink.
When a textile mill closes, demand
for cotton and wool dies down. So
the initial weakness in the North
east spreads to the West and South.
The West and the South are the
home of the Raw Material Group.
;"As traffic in finished goods and
raw materials Subsidies, there is
lessened activity for the Transporta-
ton Group. The railroads fall into
line on the downward march.
"The tragedy closes with the last
act, namely, the downfall of the Dis
tributing Group, numbering the
great mass of retailers scattered
throughout the entire country who
are caught with high cost goods. The
economic curtain falls on, land
sunk in almost universal, depression.

FINANCIAL NOTES.

Since the beginning Of the year the
PENNSYLVANIA Railroad Company has
made big strides IN earnings, particularly
in net Ii is reliably reported that 10
March ID the company earned Tor that
period its full proportion OF interest,
taxes and dividends with a surplus OF
around $4,000, 900 which would indicate
net income al O rate above 10 per cent
per annum on the stock.
The United States Steel Corporation
very likely will have ultimately q sub
stantial credit balance out OF the re-
naming s60.7lO,0OO inventory deple-
ton reserve which was set up out OF
the war-period earnings. Any such
credit would flow back, IN one form or
another, 20 the benefit OF the common
stock.
Official denial was made Of New
York report that the Lsckawanna Rail
road, Nickel Plate and others would be
merged into one system with the Pere
Marquette. The latter was In negotia-
ton To acquire the Ann Arbor Railroad,
but. il was stated, has dropped the
matter.
Rate of operations of United States
Steeis subsidiaries reached slightly
above Il per cent this week, the highest
since early IN 1921. Present rate COM
pares with approximately 60 per cent in
first week OF March and with 29 per
cent last July.
Judge L. H. Gary, in conversation
with newspapermen, took the most
optimistic view, not only of the steel III
dustry, but of general business condi-
tions, which he has expressed in more
than two wears. The announcement that
the Y. s. Steel Corporation will advance
prices 10 the levels recently fixed by the
independents was not made known until
after the market closed. His statement
that general business is definitely on the
upgrade was taken as the most hearten-
ing declaration from an authoritative
source which has been made recently.

SEEK BIG TURNOUT

Members of the local Commandery

annual conclave of the Grand Com
mandery to be held in Indianapolis
on May 10 and IL.
Plans are being made by the Of
ficers of the commandery here for at
least 100 members to attend. The
men have been drilling for the past

gress with every practice.
A special Scottish Highlanders band

local group to Indianapolis to furnish
the men with entertainment during
the stay. The local knights Templar
will make their headquarters at the
Claypool hotel during their stay in
Indianapolis.
The local delegation will leave
Richmond at 8:45 o'clock the morning

hand for these drills. Another drill
will be held in the Masonic hall Mon

STRAYER SETS FORTH
CAMPAIGN POLICIES
IN PROSECUTOR RACE

Frank T. Strayer, candidate for the
Republican nomination for prosecutor,
has submitted the following:
Il was urged to get into the prose
cutor's race by large number of peo-
pie from over the county who felt
that the law was not being properly
enforced, and now as the campaign is
nearing to its close want to make a
frank statement as to where / stand.
If you don't want the law enforced,
then don't vote for me. By law en-
forcement l don't mean that l intend
to hunt up every little petty violation
and make myself obnoxious TO good
sensible people, but l do mean that
criminals shall be brought to justice if
| can get the evidence to do it. There
are enough law violations of a serious
character to take all the prosecutors
time in this county; the prosecutor
don't need to fool with the small stuff.
"The time has come when the prose-
cutting attorney and other officers
charged with the enforcement of the
law by virtue of their office must take
a stand either for enforcement of the
laws or against it. l stand for en-
forcement of the law"
