The Weekend A Happy One

The last week closed upon the longest unbroken
period of Improvement in this country since the de-
preston set in. There had previously been many
false upward starts, tentative advances tld'y made
which quickly failed Of support BUt prices OF STOCKS
throughout the week were strongly supported and
advances at the particular spots OF wheat, cot
ton and silver were we'll sustained.
There will probably be recessions from time to
time as there have always been in the most prosper
GUS periods There has never been such thing as a
steady, continuous, healthy upward movement. Such
movement if rapid one is presagng OF early great
er or less disaster The heakhy movement is Ike a
rising tide which does not come with sweep out IN
succession of waves, each rising little higher Inc
strong tidal wave which broke in October two years
ago left the coast streWn with ruin
There is good apparent reason for the movement
last week which was carried to high points in all the
markets The demands for wheat, cotton and silver
were not speculative but genuine The supplies OF the
former two were found to be much smaller than they
had been supposed to be- and consideration gwen
to the certainty that with the restricted next
year the crops will be smaller than they have been Tor
several years The specter Of production no long
er sat in the markets.
The advance in the price of silver indicates that
has another value than it's intrinsic value as met
AL used in manufacture and the arts Its extended use
by considerable part Of the world as money, was
recognized in the mounting price OF bar silver That
The use of it money will be rapidly and much faf-
ther increased, is regarded as certain.
The chief Of our troubles from the beginning OF
the period of the depression the curtaifnent OF
the country's purchasing power. The curtalment
more and more nearly approached paralysis But
within the past week the power greatly enlarged
it will require but little time for it to be applied so
that the effect of it will be quickly felt.
The most Immediate result of the events Of the
week Will be the impetus that has been given to the
return Of popular confidence Then there is yet to be
felt the effect Of the flow of money to be oosed thru
the National Credit corporatn whose subscriptions
have already reached fou1-fifths of the amount be-
lieved by Mr. Hoover to be necessary to iquefy the
country's frozen assets
Altogether, there has been no other such happy
weekend within the last two years. (Arzona Repub-

statement to the delegates of the
American Legion Convention in De-

of the Legion that this year marks

ganized the first Red Cross Society
in the United States.
"This year the Red Cross chap
ters in many of your home towns
face a great task, and know that
you can be relied upon to give them
your support, just as the Red Gross
members IN 1917 and 1918 back
here in the states labored to pro-
vide some comforts for you while
you were fighting the war in France.
''The Red Cross call for members
will be held, as usual, from Arm

it been more urgent that every man

Millions For World War

The treasures Of the world still
are pouring out millions of dollars
each month to pay for a war that
ended 13 years ago. To date the
conflict has cost the United States
approximately $4O,OO0,0OO,O0O, ac-
cording to Treasury Department fl
cures. On veterans relief $1,O00,OOO,-
900 per year is being spent and this
charge will continue for many years.
Nearly a half million manned
and direased~ veterans have been
treated at government hospitals
since the end of the war Thous-
ands still are in these institutions.
Against this dark background the
statesmen of the world are work.
ing with an enthusiasm seldom wit
messed before to ease the tensions
of international polit cs. The post
war period has brought forth new
method of diplomacy on which
many observers are pinning their
hope-personal conferences between
statesmen. From Paris to Berlin,
from Berlin to London, from Lon
don to Rome, from Europe to
Washington foreign ministers are
travelling back and forth to straight
en- out their problems.
Upon such conversations and a
growing sense of Independence
among nations is based what hope
statesmen hold for avoiding a re-

Endangers Peace

News from Manchuria indicates that Japanese
aggression is producing situation which is likely to
cause serious fighting between the Japs and the
Chinese
The origin of the present disturbance is not en-
trey clear as the reports from the two nations in
vowed are somewhat contradictory Conflicts between
Japanese troops guarding the South Manchurian rail
way were followed by military movements on the part
of Japan indicating either a desire to punish the
Chinese or to assume more exclusive and perna1-
ent control Of this rich province.
The fate Of Manchuria has been tied up in sew
eral already. Nearly forty years ago Japan and
China fought and the victorious Japs wanted Man
churia then but their ambition was thwarted by Rus
ia which interposed effective Veto Thirty years
ago the Russo-Japanese War was fought, and as a
result Japan obtained free hand in Korea and some
advantages in Manchuria, while Russia withdrew her
claims to the latter province.
Since then China has been growing more race
conscious and the partial occupation of Manchra by
the japanese has been fostering During the
World War Japan tried to grab other Chinese ter
ritory (the famous twenty one demands) and at the
conclusion Of the War would have taken over Ger
man territory in China if it had been permitted.

Rroadway commentators have

plans for the Maude Adams-Ot1s
Skinner Merchant of Venice"
production we're announced. BY
hanging around the Erlanger
offices and persistent quizzing OF
those who emerge from the inner
Sanctums the scribblers have dis
covered that the show is ready
for rehearsal. 1t will not play
New York this season, but will
travel through the South, and
that, let us hope, includes Wash
ington. John D. Williams, an old
personal friend of the star, will
sponsor and direct the production.
The net result of all this de-
tached reserve seems but to in
spire more interest. Newspaper
men as a rule are keenly curious
about the story that is hard to
get as against the handout. But
others are still skeptical. They
claim Maude Adams returns were
announced frequently before and
never materialized so until the
curtain is actually up on the
renowned Shylock and Portia
they remain to be convinced.
