By LEWIS HANEY

Director New York University
/ 6GreGi Of Business Research
4 and Former Economist OF
(, Federal Trade Commission
In his striking article on "over
Capitalization, the Cause OF De.
preston" in the New York Amer.
ican,. william Randolph Hearst
puts his finger squarely on the
the sore spot.
In the boom days, stocks were
run up to ridiculous prices. That
meant that many Of them came
to pay only 2 per cent and 8 per
cent. And that meant cheap
money for those who had stocks
to sell.
In their eagerneSs to get 2 per
cent money by selling over.valued
stocks. the corporations deluged
US with new issues, split-ups, and
rights" investment trusts and
trading companies" were formed
TO help sell stocks. The result
was an enormous over produc.
ton Of securities.
Public Holding Bag
Now, the corporations have the
money. We (the public) have
the stocks.
l's AS Mr.. Hearst points out, this
over capitalization has had two
results, Cd It has made it diff.
cult for some corporations to pay
dividends on the excessive amount
Of stock and thus has tended to
make them reduce wage payments.
: These things mean reduced con-
sumer purchasing power. They
hurt business.

the meal, one would consequently eat
less abundantly Of the first courses.
But If the later courses were less sub
stantial or not the sort of thing one
cared to eat in abundance, then one
took ones fill of the first courses.
In the cleverly planned dinner now
adayS no such menu or previous knoWl-
edge OF the bill of fare should be need
ed. 1t is the part of the one who plans
the meal to provide not only delicious
meal, but one properly balanced. over
laviShneSs is as much failing as mea-
gerness. Soup and appetizers should be
served in moderate portions, and the
rule that second helpings OF these
courses should not be asked for Is a
good one.
Final Course.
Some housewives follow the European
custom of serving crackers and cheese
and fresh fruit as final course for din
ner. One may or may not partake OF
these additional foods. The advantage
of this custom, suppose, Is that II one
has not had enough to satisfy the appe-
tite in the other courses, then one may
do so with the final optional course.
But as no special preparations need to
be made in serving cheese, waters and
fruit, one feels no computations to
eat them if already satisfied.
You may see no advantage in the
custom of serving the fruit course at the
end of dinner but If there are individ-
uals in your family, active young folk
who really need more food, I would
suggest not having second helpings of
dessert to offer. Instead, when the ap-
petite is still not quite satisfied, offer
fruit, or. If you like, bit of crackers
and cheese.
Queries.
Among this weeks interesting queries
is this:
Il want to know how to make good
deviled eggs. Can you tell me?"-
Marion j.
Boil the eggs for twenty or twenty
five minutes, but at very low rate.
Cool them before removing the shells.
Then cut them in halves iengthwise. re-
move the yolk and mash with a fork.
When quite fine, add seaSonings. You
will have to be governed somewhat by
tasting the mixture. Different eggs
need more or less of different season.
ings Use mustard, salt, cayenne pep
per. Then add thick cream or melted
butter or mayonnaise to make the yolk
mixture stick together. Pile 1t into the
egg whites, not pressing 1t down too
close, but letting it stand up bit.
Sprinkle with paprika and very finely
minced parsley.
