WASHINGTON LETTER

Especial to Sank Centre Herald)
Washington, Jan. 7 - Friendly
words of caution are now being sent
out of Washington quietly and pri-
vately from authoritative sources.
While no alarming symptoms have
been noted, high government officials
are taking precautionary measures to
avoid the heady effects of initiation.
Reports show that the new year start
ed with the country in a fairly pros
porous condition. 1t is with the idea
of maintaining good times that every
effort is being made to assure eco
nomic stability. 1t is significant to
note the attempts to minimize the
sphere of Government action, leaving
it to individuals to set their own

and will eventually exchange their
money for merchandise. Sometimes
the banks become chary Of lending
and borrowing when over-production
tendencies are noted. The esymptoms
of depression appear when the bor-
rowers are asked to meet obliba-
tons.
Financial houses have a traditional
fear of over expansion which is moth
ing more than an abuse of good
times. 1t is with the knowledge that
initiation is often a destructive force
that certain government officials have
taken this unofficial method to make
known their observations.
The hope is expressed that people
themselves will provide remedy for
evils inevitably connected with pros
perity. 1t is generally admitted that
there is no immediate panacea for
business depression. For that reason
1T is believed that the good judgment
of the average citizen will steer the
country clear of the serious phases of

posed bill would increase the rates on
newspapers 100 per cent and about
25 per cent on parcel post. Senators
and Congressman find themselves
swamped by kilograms and letters of
protest against higher postage.
The failure of the Senate to settle
the Muscle Shoals issue is source
of some concern. Important legisla-
tive measures pending on the Senate
calendar may be ignored due to the
lack of time. The sentiment in favor
of an extra session of Congress is
growing on the part of the legislat-
ors. President Coolidge is still opposed
to the special session, believing that
the county will be better satisfied with
a congressional adjournment.

warnings will not be shouted from
the house-tops. A quiet tip is more
forceful..
It must not be construed that of
ficials of the Federal government are
pessimistic. They have sound evil
dence of increasing prosperity and
agree that better days are ahead.
Perhaps the advice that many of
these officials are handing out pri-
vately is based upon an old Dutch
proverb: Gin prosperity caution, in
adversely patience. (" They are con-
cerned, we are told, solely with the
possible unhinging effect of prosper
ity.
The disadvantage of State action is
easily apparent. When the govern
ment steps in with consequent med
dlesome legislation, the people are
naturally apprehensive. When pri-
vate individuals and organizations use
the phrase "watch your STEP" it is
generally more effective than gov
ernmental intervention. 1t is said
whenever the government steps in
the people imagine the worst. Legis-
ative measures proposed thus have |
an unsettling influence and weaken
he optimistic feeling which prevails
n times of prosperity.
To avoid the charges of pessimism,
lere are the points noted by the gov
authorities now watching the
Industrial and social barometer.

~ EVERAL well-known scient-

However, the power companies
Will be able to buy it cheaper De-
cause it will be secondhand WIND.
Housewives would be glad to get
hold of this air. They could use
It for running their vacuum
cleaners.
The same gust of afr that runs

operating windmill.
If the musicians could save all
their wind they wouldn't have any
trouble selling it to farmers dur
ing the summer.
Statistics show that a piccolo
player uses enough wind during
The chorus of "Red-Hot Mama" to
float the ZR-3.
Records also show that the av-
erage Jazz band consumes four
thousand quarts Of air during one
concert.
A drummer or a violinist doesn't
use any air at all, except what he
needs for his own personal use.

In order to be successful tuba

The only trouble Is, once your
lungs blow out you can't have
them vulcanfzed.
Whenever a thing like this hap
pens, a tuba player has to throw
his horn away and buy a piano.
OF course, he can study for the
base drum and start walking in
stead of blowing.
It's a question of whether he'd
