passports he received from Bucha-

beautiful and of striking appearance,

appears to be taking her position
with nonchalance.
Magda and Carol are occupying,

And it was good ad- vice 10 all such nervous individuals who saw in the collapse a symp- tom that business might be reflect cd by the stock slump,
 According 10 the secretary, the slump was an inevitable result Of oYer-speculation. That we have had too much speculation for months has been patent 10 all; indeed, IL was a matter Of concern long be- fore the stock crash came.
 Fundamental business conditions are just as they were before the price reduction transpircd on the stock exchange. The country owns just as much property and goods; identicaIly the same productive power exists; and the buying power of the people has not been touched,
 Rooms and slumps follow each other in the stock exchange. the secretary held. until a normal po- sition is found. Stocks that are not worth q riggod up speculative price cannot remain high indefinitely Stocks will reach their level, just like water.
