source of our deliyerance? What is
our hope of success? MANY wears

ria. a mighty multitude inouirjng the
way out of human despair and dark
ness. In their darkness and despera-

DAVIDSON
FOR COUNCIL

Representation on the Alexa1-
dria city council is demanded by
citizens of the annexed territory,
who have appointed a committee
to interview the present members
of council in the interest of the
candidate from that territory.
According to o. P. Angelo, a
member of the committee, two of
the four present members of
council have assured him they
will support E. c. Davidson for
the fifth councilman. Davidson
was a candidate for council in
the last election and was de,
feated.
Davidson's appointment would
not be an unpopular one with
residents of any section of the
city and it is possible that he
will be named.
According to M. Angelo, the
committee of which he is a
member and which is circulating
a petition to change the form OF
government is marking time until
tho fifth councilman has been
selected.

HOOVER IS TOLD
BUSINESS DATA

President Hoover had before
him today a frank analysis of
business conditions, and while the
picture presented was not entirely
pessimistic, it was far from opti-
mistic.
He received his information at
a rOund-table discussion with buSi-
ness paper editors, who called at
the White House late yesterday.
Half a dozen of the "a present
made three.minute outlines of con-
ditiOns.
The only truly hopeful word
was spoken for the textile indus
try. Otherwise, however, it
seemed to be the conoensus that
industry was marking time, that
the public was still overly cautious
in spending, and that price cuts
and lack of demand were causing
many industries acute anguish.
The automotive industry regis
tered a complaint against the
tariff.
Steel is operating only about so
per cent Of capacity, and a warn
ing was given that any wage re-
ductiOns would send prices down
sharply and still further retard
recovery.
Although home building is now
ION the bargain counter" opera
tions in that field remain quite
slack.
