Reserve Board
Head Sees Era
of Revival Near
Longer Suing of Prosperity
Pendulum Predicted by
Harding.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2.-E1perience
gained by American business men during
the depression of the past two years
should point the way to making the next
era Of prosperity the greatest IN the
country's history, Governor Harding Of
the Federal Reserve Board believes.
In expressing this view today Harding
referred to a recent speech before the
Washington Chamber Of Commerce. The
views here set forth still obtain, he said.
Harding, in that address, said:
"Therc are well defined cycles in bust
ness affairs. We have the short and
frequently recurring cycles incident to
the changes OF the seasons and all his
tory shows that there are longer swings
or periods Of prosperity and depression,
the rotation being about as follows:
81. Business activity and increas-
ing production.
90. Excessive expansion and specu-
lation, followed by panic and forced
liquidation.
IS. A long period Of slow liquida-
dalton, business depression and stag
nation, and
"a. Revival
"There are many indications that the
beginning of revival is not far distant.
When it does definitely set In it will be
followed in due course by a new era OF
prosperity. While the losses during the
last two years have been great, much
experience has been gained, and while
experience is not transferable, except
perhaps to a limited extent the present
generation of business men has several
years of business activity ahead of it."

French Resent US. Demand
for Payment of War Claims
and Is Very Proud of Them

offered a means to crush British naval
power, has Modified the British.
Sarraut and Admiral De Bon both have
placed their government on record as de-
string no war against Britain and as
not approving Of submarine ruthless
ness.
In these circumstances, the naval COM
mitteemen expect Paris scarcely can re-
ject the Root resolution. outlawing the
submarine as a weapon against merchant
men.
That there has been a real strain be-
tween the French and British is evidenced
by Sarraut's resentful observation:
IF, when we come here for the pur-
pose Of working for the proposed peace,
we must constantly see the spectre OF
war dangled before us We
would be impatient to see the end Of
a conference which had brought us the
bitterness OF such disappointment
The naval disarmament committee Is
IN recess awaiting the French reply to
queries as to acceptability of the Root
resolution outlawing submarines as
weapons against merchantmen.
