BUSH SEES CHANGE
DUE IN DEPRESSION
Final housekeeping on and
Gradual Trade Recovery
Expected.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, December 27.-Irving
T. Bush believes that the business de-
preston has at last about reached rock
bottom.
Mr.. Bush, who is president OF the
Bush Terminal Co. of New York, q
director of Bush House, Ltd, Of London,
and an authority on shipping and for
eign trade, feels that I'VE are passing
through the final house cleaning after
our recent speculative debauch."
In a year end statement to the Asso-
ciated Press he said:
Now at Bedrock.
Fundamental business conditions are
about at bedrock. Early in December
it was apparent that there would be q
final spasm in the security market, fol-
lowed by a period of stagnation In
security dealings and values. Periods
of depression seldom last longer than
two or two and a half years. Half OF
this period is already behind u.s.
Although he described trade with
Russia, India and China as crippled
and world trade generally as ''out of
joint" Mr.. Bush said he expected
slowly improving conditions In 1881,
and decided Improvement
by the end Of the new year." He looks
for worldwide improvement, but ap-
pearlng first in the United States.
May Be Slow Recovery.
I'VE must not expect too rapid i'm
provement," Mr.. Bush warned, "for
business has been very sick" He ex-
planned that the first half Of 1881 would
compare with the period of 1880 which
preceded the acute stage Of the depres-
sion, so that comparisons would be dis
couraging unless properly interpreted.
Il have no faith in legislative cure

to spend Sanely what we have earned,
and not to mortgage the future. A
little hard luck never hurts any one,

which workmen agree to remain out

agreements to be contrary to the pub
lie policy Of the United States" and
not enforceable at law.
Other Curbs Sought.
Another section would bar courts
from issuing injunctions to prevent
strikes, or to curb strikers or strike
sympathizers from peacefully and law
fully promoting strike.
Still another section would keep Fed
eral courts from issuing either tenn
porary or permanent injunctions in any
labor trouble unless the complainant is
able in open court to prove injury or
the imminence of injury, pleads he is
without adequate remedy at law and
that public officers charged with his
protection fail or are unable to furnish
this protection.
In this connection exception is made
for the issuance of emergency injunc-
tions, valid for five days, but it is pro-
vided that those who are enjoined shall
be recompensed for any damage incur
red should the plea Of the complainant
be found baseless.
The bill also provides for speedy
hearing of appeals.

HOOVER RECEPTION
PLANS COMPLETED
President and First Lady Will
Greet Public and Officials
New Year Day.

According to the plans completed for
the New Year reception to be held
Thursday by President and Mrs. Hoo
yer, this traditional White House func-
ton promises to be as colorful and
interesting as heretofore.
The program for this reception was
formally announced at the White House
last night, and it is virtually the same
in its nature as programs for New Year
day receptions during the past decade.
The size of the New Year reception
crowd will depend largely upon the
weather. Last year 4, All persons shook
hands with the President and Mrs.
Hoover.
The reception will consume the
greater part of the day, and, as Gus
tomary, will be devided into two parts.
The first part from IL O'Clock in the
morning until noon, will be devoted to
the members of the cabinet, the diplo-
matte corps, the judiciary, Congress,
high-ranking officers of the Army, Navy
and Marine Corps and other high OH
cials of the various branches OF the
Government and members of the various
patriotic and civic organizations of the
District.
The second part of the reception will
be given over entirely to the public.
This part of the New Year day recep-
ton always has been the most interest
ing and impressive because OF It's DEM
ocratic and picturesque nature. Any
one, regardless of race, creed or color,
or position in life will be permitted to
pass along the receiving line and eX-
change greetings. The public line will
form at the west gate on Pennsylvania
avenue. It will start along the receiv-
ing line at l o'clock and will be con-
tinued until the last person in the line
has filed past the President and the
First Lady.
The President and Mrs. Hoover will
Informally receive the members of the
cabinet and their families on the up
Der floor of the White House until IL
o'clock. The ladies of the cabinet will
assist in the receiving. Although they
do not take up positions in the line
itself, they are stationed nearby in the
blue room, where the President and
Mrs. Hoover do their receiving.

in effort and in toll will be the best
guarantee of the economic relief which
can and must be accomplished on the
threshold of the new year.
M. Martin attributed the
world crisis which developed this year
to oyerproduction in agriculture, gen.
eral drop in the price of commodities
and raw materials and reduction in the
purchasing power Of conSumers-espe-
cially rural populations-say1ng all OF
this destroyed the economic equilibrium.
At the same time he warned the peo-
pie of France to beware OF rumors
which pretend the situation Is worse
than it really is. The propagation Of
such rumors, he said, is criminal Of
Tense.
The finance minister asserted that
the economic situation in the republic
ran q risk of becoming serious only
through lack of popular courage and
popular determination to aid in bring
ing improvement.
I'VE cannot fail to remark" he con-
tinued, "that capital is constantly be-
ing invested in our country.
"This explains the increase In our
stock of gold and is evidence OF the
confidence which foreigners have in our
monetary soundness and in our eco
nomic development. Why, therefore,
should our people in the interior feel
any disbursements"
M. German Martin voiced the opln-
ion that forthcoming approval OF the
colonial loan and national equipment
projects would produce constructive
economic activity. He promised the
government would do everything pos
sible to improve the general situation.

that small group that has kept the Re-
publican party from being completely
the political expression Of the great in
oustr1al, banking and public utility
groups of this country.
The response of Senator Norris to
my letter asking him to cast his lot
with new political alignment has not
oeen surprise. Such step is not
taken quickly and especially when a
man Is under fire. hardly expected
an afhrmative answer at once, but de-
sired to emphasize this irrepressible
conflict. America when she moves

FIRM ACTS TO PREVENT
COLLECTION OF $780, 900
Injunction Sought in Case Involv-
ing Alleged Illegal Seizure Of
Railway in Cuba.

j. Ulloa & Co., Havana, Cuba, yes
terday renewed in the District Supreme
Court their application for an injunc-
ton to prevent Charles j. Harrah, 300
Sixteenth street, from collecting a
Treasury warrant of $350,000, which
had been awarded by the Republic of
Cuba for an alleged illegal seizure of
a railway in Cuba belonging to Harrah.
Justice Bailey recently denied a pre-
vious application by the Ulloa firm and
other claimants to the fund.
The plaintiff says the property was
sold at sheriff's sale and bought in
by the firm. The award belongs to
them, the claimants assert, and ask the
court to so find.
Secretary of the Treasury Mellon and
w. o. Woods, treasurer of the United
States, are also named as defendants,
and the court is asked to enjoin them
from paying over the warrant to Har-
rah. Attorneys H. Ralph Burton and
Tench T. Marye appear for the
claimant.
