|cretary of Commerce Lamont
Paints Rosy Picture of Outlook
For Large-Scale Improvements

there Is as much money in the
country as there was before. 1t is
in differents hands. Complaints TO
this effect are audible in congress
right now.
AS the more pessimistic brand OF
critics see the situation, a few very
big capitalists got an enormous
number OF very little capitalists in
to a stock market game. took all
their money away from them and
then stopped the game, inasmuch
as there Is no fun in continuing to
play with folk who already have
been cleaned.
AS for the big capitalists. they
did not care to 60 on gambling
among themselves.
They preferred to put their win
nings into bonds.
That's what they are doing now.
Yes. indeed; the little fellows who
lost their shirts are warmly well
come to go back to work creating a
lot of improyements-for the bond
holders to own.
The creation OF new wealth is
exactly what the big capitalists
want. II will belong TO them-as
owners Of the bonds. It's actual
creators simply will be working for
them, on their payrolls. To be sure,
the toilers on the payrolls will
draw the pay. That will be all right,
too. When they have saved enough
Of il TO be worth while. the bond
holders will get up another stock
market game and invite them in.
And so on, round and round.
This is how peSsimists in con-
gress talk.
II is why Senator Carter Glass,
OF Virginia. has Just introduced a
bill. In an effort TO cripple the
stock market game by curling the
use Of federal reserve facilities in
speculation. It Is a complicated bill
and hard to understand, but that
is the nub OF it.
Other critics say that as long as
savings bank depoSitors are human,
1t will be impossible to keep them
J from being skinned periodically.

contracts will begin being let soon
and that the wheels CT a vast i'm
provement program viii shortly be

Secretary Of Labor James J.
Davis supplements these tidings with
an announcement that unemploy-
ment is lesSening already.
Which certainly is good news,
even for the individual who lost
all his savings IN the stock market;
at least he Is going to have a Job,
and wages. and . chance to save
some more.
Secretary Lamont does not ex-
press himself quite that way, and
Il Is not 70 be eXpecsel he would.
Nevertheless, there are bound to
be croakerS during the coming
congressional election campaign who
will lay considerable emphasis on

Another thing the spectroscope

II a star is approaching the earth.
and its light is localized by the

in the spectrum will be shifted
toward the violet end Of the spec

then all the lines IN the spectrum

Furthermore the extent to which
the lines are shifted tells the velo-
