ANALYSIS
MADE BY FRANKLIN
TWO CENTURIES Ago
Said TROUBLE Was Too Many
Sellers Rather Than Too
Few Consumers

A sound analysis of reasons for
business depressions that applies to
the present as we'll as to conditions
when it Was written almost 200 years
ago is found in the writings of Ben
jamin Franklin.
Over-capacity in industry a. the
cause Of many difficulties in those
days just as it is now when the shoe
industry is able to make three times
as many shoes as the country can
wear, the cement industry so pei
cent more cement than is shipped, the
WOODEN industry three times as much
wool Is is needed; and oil, printing
paper, steel. machinery, gas and flour
al have greater capacities than arc
needed.
Franklin pointed out that when too
many people, lured by the prospects
OF large profits, enter any given bus
mess, distress usually follows. Indus
tries which are suffering from over
capacity now will agree with Frank
inns statement, which follows:
There remain the merchants and
s~hopkeepers. Of these, though ,:e.ey
make but a small part OF the whole
nation, the number is considerable,
too great indeed for the business they
r employed in; for the consumption
of goods in every country, has its
limits; the faculties of the people,
that is, their ability to buy and pay.
being equal only to a certain quantity
of merchandise. If merchants cal
culatc amiss on this proportion, and
import too much. they will of course
find the sale dull for the ovcrplus,
and some Of them will say that trade
languishcs. They should, and doubt
less will, grow wiser by experience,
and import less. If too many arti'
ficers in town, and farmers from the
country. fiattcring themselves with
the idea Of leading easier lives, turn
shopkeepers, the whole natural guam
tity of that business divided among
them all may afford too small a share
for each. and occasion complaints
that trade is dead; they may also
suppose, that 1t is owing to scarcity
of money. while. in fact, 1t is not SO
much from the fewncss of buyers as
from the excessive number Of sellers
that mischief arises"

that he was present to give them the lie, and
whip the little lawyer that would repeat 1t.
When Fitzgerald reached the objectionable
point, Crockett arose from his seat in the
audience and advanced toward the stand.
When within three or four feet of It, Fitzgerald
suddenly removed pistol from his handker-

warned him that step further and he would
fire.

Things the farmer buys are 125 per cent of
the pre-War level His taxes are $50 per cent
ana the wages he pays his help 100 per cent.
His situation compared to that of the in
dustrial worker shows his percentage of gross
income 10 per cent, while the EMPLOYED worker
IN industry receives about 200 per cent of the
pre-war figure
the comparison leaves the farmers situa-

1t was customary in those days to write
plays around Col Crockett's adventures which
were performed at the theaters by some of the
leading actors of the day. Upon one particular
occasion when such play was being performed
here at the Washington Theater on Louisiana
avenue by Hackett, the celebrated comedian of
that period it witnessed by q member OF
Congress named William Hester who was so
amused that he wrote back home to his father
under date of December Is, 1888, saying:
During last week we had an amusing farce
with Col David Crockett 1t was announced
that at the particular request of Davy, Mr.
Hackett would appear the boards in his
favorite character of Nimrod wildfre In the
play called The Kentuckian; or, Trip to New

recognized by the audience they made the very
house shake with hurrahs for Col. Crockett:

After some time the curtain rose, and
Hackett appeared in q hat covered with
wildcat skin and long tail attached After
bowing to the audience he turned toward
Crockett and bowed repeatedly. The compli-

small amusement, noise, and qualification of the
spectators. The play then went on through

the memorable difhculty took place between
Davy and Little Fitz' that decided the cleo

accused Crockett of drawing more mileage than
he was entitled to, and characterized 1t in very

CARNERA AND
MALONEY WILL
BATTLE TONIGHT

MIAMI, Fla, March 5. iU.P) -
Primo Camera, giant Italian boxer,
and Jimmy Maloney, Boston, were
to have their second meeting here
tonight in a 10-round contest which
is of tremendous Importance to each
other if not to the customers.
More important than their former
meeting in Maloney S home town,
the bout rises to unusual interest in
view of Camera s promised meeting
with the victor in the Schmeling-
Stribling title battle in June and
the determination of the Boston
Irishman to Stub his opponent out
of the title shot and place himself
for the first time on the Threshold
of the heavyweight throne.
Carnera is not satisfied with the
Boston decision against him. Ma
loney is certain that he won cleanly
in his local bailiwick. This Miami
bout was brewed before the giant
Italian was promised chance
against the existing heavyweight
champion late in the summer.
Should Camera lose, he is most GER
tain to be delayed in his heavy
weight aspirations. Should Maloney
take the wrong side of the count or
