soundness in management. Nobody
no matter what the size OF the firm
or corporation with which he is con-
nected, can tell when things are GO
Ing to stop. The skilled student OF
economics can tell when conditions
are ripe for a change or when a
trend is under way. but that is about
as far as he can go.
II is an unfortunate fact that in
times Of great prosperity we have
tendency to so about the country
slapping each other on the back and
bringing messages OF good cheer TO
those not particularly in need Of
them. II Is still more unfortunate
that, just before a period OF great
prosperity closes, there is a tend
ency to go on adding TO those mes
sages Of cheer and confidence at a
time when every business manager
should rather be warned the time
for conservatism and liquidation OF
his surplus stocks has arrived. Per-
haps most unfortunate OF all is the
tendency. in time Of gloom and
dependency. TO talF Of our troubles
and the mistakes which we have
made in the past. and OF the pres
ent difficulties resulting from these
mistakes and because we think 20
much Of present or Immediately
past conditions, we sometimes come
TO think Of them as permanent.
I do not want TO be understood
as minimizing the losses OF the great
defiation period. Most certainly /
do not object 20 sanity OF business
management. But remember sanity
is not synonymous with pessimism
I tell you now that the man who
believed that the war had intro
duced a new level OF living stand
ards which would be permanent was
a sane, sound thinker on the sub
Ject, and you cannot avoid agree
ment. Why not. then. view with
suspicion the man who tells you, in
the name Of sanity and soundness.
that prosperity cannot return un-
I'll after a long period Of years?
Don't forget this: The swings from
prosperity 20 depression and back
again are the products OF character
lstics as deeply ingrained in human
nature as Is the social segregation
of races in North Carolina.
Reformers who allow their emo
lions 70 overcome the judgment

King Tutankhamen was an
Egyptian king OF the eighteenth
dynasty. lie reigned about 1850
y. C., or 3270 years ago.
His origin Is doubtful. He
gained the throne by marry
ing Princess Ankh-Nes- Pa
Aten. most beautiful woman
in Egypt and daughter OF King
Amen -Hotep ".
The mystery OF Tutankha-
mems life is this. He destroyed
the beautiful city OF ri Amarna
and ordered his subjects 20 leave
Il and settle In Thebes.

structed as a perfect city Of con-
tentment by Akhnaton. an ear

OF Europe. We can afford to do II,
and shall profit in the doing OF It.
The condition OF the budgets in
France, Italy. Germany and other
countries OF Europe tell very ser
lous story. and that the emergency
financing which has kept them on
their feet up to this time cannot
continue. indefinitely.
Summing up this situation and
casting together all OF the elements,
# is my belief that the surface cur
rents will continue for while
longer: but what is to happen there
after will depend upon the way we
solve our Individual, national and
world problems. The manufaotur-
er and wholesaler must not for a
moment gamble IN the production
and sale OF commodities. The cred
Il departm snts must scan their risks
and take no unreasonable chances.
We must not be swept or our feet.
We are stronger than we were
twelve months ago. but we are not
yet on a firm foundation.
The favorable factors are:
1st. Improved transportation sit
uation IN the decreased car short
age and slightly freer movement OF
comm ODDITIES.
End. Increased supply OF fuel for
Industrial purposes.
3rd. Activity in the production
OF basic commodities.
4th. Slight increase in the prices
Of farm products.
5th. Slight improvement OF prof
its in some industries.
9Th. Discernible Improvement in
the earnings of railways.
7th. Prospect OF our country at |
tempting some solution OF Europe's /
financial problems. and what has )
been accomplished by our observer /
at the Lausanne conference.
The unfavorable factors are:
1st. Increasingly serious flnan-
cial conditions in Europe and the
unsettlement OF the Near
East problem.
End. Lack OF buying power in
Europe OF our farm products and
commodities.
3. Continuing tendency 20 rise in
prices and an increase in the cost
Of living.
4. Slow collections in some sec
tions OF the country.
s. Agitations for changes in our

ness. The runners down OF these

WI d k Zbyszko; heavyweight
wrestler and contestant for the

the Human Spring, in a heavy
weight wrestling elimination contest
at the Coliseum on March 9, accord
ing to Joe Freeman, local promoter,
who has just returned from New
York after obtaining the signatures
OF the two men to a contract. I
1t will be the first time that lads
or their gross tonnage have mingled
on the mat before a Washington
man is enthusiastic about the quality
OF his Offering.
Zbyszko has wrestled Stranger
Lewis a total of seven times, with
various results. He is at present
striving to obtain a match with the
champion with the hope of regain
ing the worlds title according to
Freeman.
The Human Spring. is not so we'll
known to Washington wrestling
fans as is Zbyszko, but he has a
reputation throughout South Amer
lea ana Europe as a mailman of
Qualities. He is giant standing six
feet three inches and knocking the
scales for a COOL. They captured
him on the steppes Of Russia back in
the days when the Car was making
things hot for the peasants of Holy
Russia. In those days the Human
Spring was a Cossack, who used a
knout in his spring workouts.
They tanned the boy sufficiently to
keep him on shipboard without using
a cage, and took him to London,
where he won the Greece Roman
amateur championship of the world.
Since then he mostly has been romp-
ing in South America as a pro-
fessional and has collected a job
lot OF golden ferns and suchIike as
trophies Of his prowess.

Inc past three years the
Pirates have threatened to cop the
National League pennant. In 1921,
McGraw was forced to drive his
players to the limit to beat out the
Corsairs, at that time under the
management Of George Gibson.
Last year the Pirates got away
to poor start and Noundered
about in the second division. Glib
son refused to meet the terms Of
his star hold-out, Catcher Walter
Schmidt, and also refused to buy
"Reb" Russell, a renowned ball
player, who was for several years
the eouthpaw mainstay Of Cof11is-
keys White Sox. ''Reb," waived
out Of the American League, had
turned his attentions to the outfield
and won for himself a new reputa-
ton as slugger extraordinary in
the American Association.
Had Gibson taken Russell ON
early last season there might have
been another story to tell of Pitts
burgh'S finish In 1922.
Then came the managerial change.
Gibson, discouraged, handed the
reins to his assistant, Bill McKech-
ME. Without disparaging Gibson's
methods, the acquisition of Russell,
after Gibby's retirement, and the
bringing of Schmidt into the fold,
seemed to make the Pirates a diff
ferent collection of ball players.
They climbed, but the changes had
been made too late.
The year 1928 may prove to be
the Pirates big year. McKechnie
will begin the campaign with the
strongest team that has represented
Pittsburgh since the palmy days of
