HOOVER SWITCH
ON PAY POLICY
EXPLAINED
Wage Maintenance in Favor,
But Burden Of Agitation to
Be Left to Business Itself

The recent rumors that Off
cial Washington possessed secret
information of some impending
crisis the revelation of which
would shock the country, are en-
tirely without foundation, says
the Standard Statistics Co., oi
New York, in presenting a sum
mary of Washington opinion or
business. Portions OF the sum
mary follow:
washington Is not with
holding any bad news; neither
is 1t in possession of any good
news which Is not available to
anyone else"
Reversal on Wage Policy
"The sudden reversal Of the
official policy of publicly ad-
vOcating wage maintenance
probably resulted from a more
complete recognition Of the
marketing, competitive and cost
problems currently confronting
domestic business concerns.
While the administration has
not altered its inherent posi-.
tiOn on this question, the
burden of agitating for wage
maintenance is now on bust.
ness itself.
Despite wide publicity con
cerning this change in policy,
it is a fact to be reckOned with
In any appraisal Of the influ
ence of Washington on bust,
ness.
"The general belief Ir Wash.
ingtOn that unemployment dis.
tress may be worse next winter
than last may have consider.
able Influence on all govern.
mental policies during that
period.
THE question is thus raised
as to whether Federal taxes
and public works programs will
be increased, or whether State
and municipal governments will
be allowed to do the spending
and necessary tax collecting.
The latter is the present policy
of the Administration. and this
is responsible for the recent
economy conferences
New Revenue Sources
Contrary to general Wash
lngtOn opinion, a thoughtful
minority of observers feels that
new revenues must be sought
through the avenue of higher
taxes. Agitation for some sort
Of sales taxes is definitely In.
creaSing from month to month.
"WaShingtOn opinion on the
short range outlook is that bust
ness activity will decline in
June and July, and will be reIa-
lively low in August, but that
there will be a slight recovery
late in the latter month. This
pickup will be irregular, and
probably will not be spectacular.
Crop money will come into
circulation in great aggregate
volume, even though crop prices
are low, and the new blood
will make new energy in the
economic body.
"A higher degree Of una
nimity exists among those
committing themselves as to
the longer term. The consensus
Is that 1882 will be a year Of
rising volumes, and that salts
factory business should be re-
stored by the end of 1892 or
the early part of 1888. This
represents economic rather
than political thought.
The survey finds politician!

recovery if they are Republicans
or of more delayed recovery il
