I'VE are undergoing the most
peculiar economic situation we've
ever had in America. The roads
are crowded with automobiles,
the theaters are jammed, record
crowds attend football games

All these crowds seem to have
money.
"On the other hand, we have
o huge surplus Of wheat with
thousands Of people hungry.
We have a surplus Of textile
goods with thousands of people
cold. We have banks bursting
with money with yet other
banks going into the discard.
Hope Must Return
"The year Of 1881 should and
will bring us back to DUR usual
prosperous condition. But, the
basis of that return must be
the faith, hope and confidence

 Police found .3S calibre, re- volver under the cowl of their automobile. They were quoted as saving they were waiting for a liquor truck which they knew was due to pass through Danbury.

 Accustomed to hardships, the Indians said little.
 It was cold up on the Mesas, they admitted. There was no food except the nuts. They were being saved. There was little clothing. But the nuts must be brought to the trading posts, and sold.
