UNEMPLOYMENT
In STATE IS Low
State Labor Official Sees
Much Improvement
Of Conditions

AUSTIN. Nov. 2s.-The slight sea-
eonal unemployment in Texas Is on
the decrease. and large industrial
expansion program viii go forward
unaffected by the stock market COL
lapse. In the opinion Of r. B. Gragg.
chief deputy state labor commission
er.
Deputy Commissioner Gragg term
ed President Hoover's appeal for in
creased activity In public work log
lcal and timely, because IL tends
not only TO inspire confidence in
the fundamental soundness Of the
economic situation that justifies ex-
penditure Of public funds. but also
decreases unemployment" he said.
Situation Normal
While there is some unemploy-
ment in Texas at this time" Mr..
Gragg said, "the amount is COM
paritively small, little more than
the normal amount incident 10 the
shifting Of unskilled workers from
one industry to another.
Our reports indicate the en-
ployment in the state has been
gradually decreasing for the last Is
months. Our industries are all in
a reasonably prosperous condition,
most OF them with programs of en-
largement and expansion.
IdIeness tdenace
The collapse OF the stock mar
ket, brought about solely by over
speculation, should not cause cur
tailment or these expansion pro-
grams"
Unemployment was termed the
greatest menace to the stability Of
business and the permanency OF
national prosperity.
When the workers are without
employment and lack that feeling
Of assurance that comes from steady
and continuous earnings, fear for
the future takes hold Of them. This
fear rapidly spreads to employers
and others who direct business and
business begins to slow down. When
the workers are all employed and
enjoying steady incomes they spend
their earnings and thus stimulate
business. The people OF this coun-
try are rapidly coming to accept the
obvious truth that business con-
ditions depend upon the ability Of
the workers to earn and spend mon
ey."
Mr.. Gragg predicted that the re
cent furry In stock market specu-
lation will tend 70 emphasize and
clarity the important considerations
OF permanently solving the unem-
ployment problem.
"Of course. ultimately, this prob
lem must be permanently solved
II our national prosperity is to be
made permanent. and I believe the
trend in industry and business is
toward a permanent solution" he
said.

DEFEAT NOT SO BAD

Defeat has It's recompense less than victory,
witness the high cost to publishing house for the
privilege of printing the story of Al Smith, former

presidency.
The genial Al is getting two dollars a word, or
twice the amount reported to have been paid former
President Coolidge for similar work One would infer
that AIS story is twice good that he is twice

There is no doubt AIS story is interesting The
life of any who has risen from the privatons and
hardshps of poverty to point where he the idol Of
millions is certain to be interesting.
Few will begrudge the former governor the pleas
that must be his from recounting his lifes exper

has made good of the talents given him. his career
has been honorable and he proved himself one

The boy who, each night, came
with his torch to light the lamp be-
gan to notice after few evenings,
the growing vine. But as it was al
most in the country he did not think
much more about it. Nor did he
pull the vine down. So it grew and

UNCLE WIGGILY'S FUNNY
GAME

Uncle Wiggilv : hollow stump
bungalow was built in the woods
and the woods were not far from
the edge OF n city. In the city
streets were lamps 50 boys and
Urls. men and women could see to
90 about after dark. some OF the
lights were electric and others
Were Of gas The gas lamps had 10
be lighted each evening by boys
who went about with flaring
torches. When early morning day
light came the boy who had lighted
the gas light the night before,
crept sleerily around to turn it
off.
This was once upon time maar
years ago.
Now Uncle Wiggily used often to
hop along the woodland path from
his hollow stump bungalow until he
came to tie end of the city street
where the last gas light stood. This
light was at the very end of the
city and the ve.. beginning of the
country.
Many times, when taking his
evening hop, Uncle Wiggily would
see the boy come with his torch 10
light the last gas street lamp. And
if Uncle Wiggily had to get ur
carly to catch an adventure, he
would, in the gray, pink dawn OF
the morning, also see the boy come
to turn out the lamp. And some
times, in the evening, Uncle Wig
gily would stroll along with Mr.
Twistytail, the pig gentleman, 10
watch the bugs and moths flutter-
