our large Industrial and railway

cash position is good. We should
remember that q good many eff
cient concerns are Stil showing

Some signs that the prices Of
several basic commodities may
have hit bottom may be men
toned.
OF Doubtful Value
It seems pretty clear, however.
that most Of the artificial 'relief"
measures now being adopted are
Of doubtful value, and are one Of
the reasons for the existing un-
certainty. May they not do more
harm than good? That is the
question in mems minds.
I refer not only to government
measures to make work and to
maintain farm prices, but also to
such private efforts to boost
prices as In copper and steel.
II we need lower prices to
stimulate consumption land to
check production) is it helpful to
raise prices? II we need more ex-
ports. will it help to hold our
prices above those available In
foreign countries?
If we go very far in the way
Of producing things now which

ducing the demand later on?
How about taxes?
These are grounds for uncer-
tainty. Temporary relief for the
unemployed and the needy Is
certainty, That we can count on
and viii gladly provide for. But
I think We should 60 slow in
building things we don't need,
and in Stabilizing prices when liv-
ing costs are still relatively high.

ASS 4A6 w Az AAEAGNG1
Director New York University Bureau
Of Business Research and FOrmee
Economist OF Federal Trade
Commission.
Business uncertainty IL at the
bottom Of the existing backward
ness in investment. This uncer-
tainty partly concerns, the amount
Of readjustment In business that
remains to be carried out before
q sustained recovery can occur.
In part. it Is due to the Political
situation both at home and
abroad.
The result is widespread doubt
as to earnings and dividends in o
good many cases. Uncertainty Is
q great disturher Of values.
Banks Buy Bonds
How else can we explain the
action Of the bond market?
Money rates are very low, and the
banks have been buying certain
kinds Of bonds. Under the cir
cumstances, bond averages would
have risen but for the uncertainty.
We see It also In the credit sit
uation. Money rates are decided
ly easy. But mone:- is not easy to
get. The banks are extremely
cautious, not to say tight, in max
ing loans. Why is this? "
Yet the same favorable condi-
tions that have been in evidence
for some months continue to
exist. Besides low money rates,
there Is the fact that production
in basic industries is well below
normal requirements. This should
now be bringing q better adjust
ment between supply and de-
mand.
Stocks Moderate
Consumers are using up their
supplies Of commodities. Stocks
Of goods held by dealers are gen.
orally moderate If not low. This
Is also true Of q good many manu-
facturerS. It would therefore
seem that as soon as greater sta
bility and certainty are eStab-
lished a good volume Of post
poned buying win be released.
It seems quite clear that the
financial situation Is considerah-
ly better than in most previous
severe depresSions. Our banking
system, with all It's faults, is as
q whole much stronger. There
have bes:SsS@S outstanding fail
ures, and 1t does not seem prob
able that there will be any.
