CONDITIONS STILL
SOUND SAYS LAMMOT
du POnt Company President Sees
nl0dity Price Drop, Low Interest

Lammot du Pont, president of the
du POnt Company, has advised the
heads of departments and presidents
of subsidiary companies that, in his
opinion, fundamental conditions
still seem sound and tie foundations
for returning prosperity seem even
more secure, in that basic commou-
ity prices have declined and inter-
est rates are iOw."
This was said in a communication
sent out in response to questions as
to the companys policy with respect
to construction, plant re-arrange-
ment and major repairs i'll view of
the continued business hesitation.
Mr.. 1u Pont reviewed the attitude
taken last fall, when it was felt that
the company should proceed with
expenditures of this kind where it
was thought that the work either
was then necessary or would be in
the near future.
"This conclusion" he said, was
based on the general feeling that
fundamental conditions were sound
and that it was only question of
months before business activity
was resumed, and the very fact of
our proceeding with construction
and repair work would, by example
and employment of labor, hasten
rather than retard the return to
prosperity"
Though several months have gone
by and business continues to be de-
pressed, he said lit would seem to
be appropriate to advise the depart
ments and subsidiary companies
that this policy of moderate aggres-
siveness in starting and continuing
construction and repair work is

supply of labor for farm work will be
available, and probably at slightly
lower wages, during the first half of
1880 than during the first half of
1929. The Department of Agricul-
ture pointed out, that the supply of
farm labor will probably decrease and
wages increase in the last quarter of
1880, provided 1.-The expected increase
in industrial activity during the sec
ond half of 1880 occurs. Further
more, the Department contributes a
pessimistic note by declaring that the
domestic demand for farm products in
the summer and fall of 1880 is not
likely to be as good as last year
They look for improvement in the de-
mand for farm products during the
first half of 1881. A study of all
sides of the economic controversy re-
duces the dispute TO this point, 'are
the payrolls unchanged so as to main
tain the purchasing power at an even
keel,or are there more unemployed"?
The pessimist in political circles
who became discouraged at the Sen
ate's tactics in handling the tariff are
now hopeful that present signs are
not deceptive. There is some evil
dence that the debate in the Senate
will end shortly and this measure will
then be sent to conference. The orig
inal Hawley bill, which passed the
House, has been patched by Senate
amendments so that the conference
committee will undoubtedly expert
ence real problem in ironing out the
differences. At present there is a
disposition to hasten the tariff bill
and have it over the final hurdles by
April The explanation may be found
in the several primaries that are due
in Congressional districts beginning
in April.
There are certain limitations to
governmental activity in bolstering up
national prosperity. The government
