members Of the congress to make
sure it would be accepted. The
matter was too urgent to call a
special session. 1t had to be set
tied at once. The moratorium
temporarily did the trick and
averted collapse.
After the moratorium came what
some bankers talk of now as the
Hoover boomlet." Stocks rose so
fast they nearly recovered all the
losses sustained earlier in the year.
Then, of course, came the summer
lull
But Wall Street anticipated rise
in the autumn when business
usually had a seasonal upturn.
There was some upturn, especially
in steel, but nothing like what had
been expected, and the stock mar
ket collapsed as a result.
Confidence in America was not
shaken except abroad and that
through what appeared to be as
saults viciously aimed against the
dollar.
The treasury had to request
sharply increased taxes and the
budget would not be balanced be-
fore 1884, but no one doubted it
would be balanced and that the
United States dollar would remain
on a gold standard and the United
States debt the safest risk in the
world.

Financial Leader Cites Need
of Following Known
Methods.
BY FRANCIS II. SISSON
Yice-President. Guaranty Trust CompaI

NEW YORK, Jan. 2.-The year
now closing has completely failed
to justify the moderately optimistic
expectations generally held by Amer
lean business men at the end of
1880. The chief reason for this dis
appointing course of events was
the series of financial crises that
developed in Europe, revealing a
state of affairs much more serious
than was generally recognized and
showing how closely the economic
fabrics of different nations have
become interviewer.
The early part of the year gave
some promise of recovery. Both
business activity and prices ceased
to decline, and, in some instances
moved upward. This process was
interrupted by the banking diff
culties that arose in Austria, close
ly followed by the crisis is Ger
many.
The moratorium on inter-govern-
mental debt payments instilled new
hope for a time, but actual devel-
opments soon made it clear that the
worlds financial difficulties were
far too deep-seated to be cured by
any such palliative.
Another severe shock was sus-
tanned in September, when Great
Britain suspended the operation OF
the gold standard. This step was
followed by raid on American gold

reserves by European banks, togeth-
err with renewed declines in security
prices. wave of bank failures in
the United States, and an increase
in currency boarding throughout
the world.
Several nations that had carried
part of their currency reserves in
the form of sterling balances in
London were forced to follow Eng
land off the gold standard.
In spite of these discouraging
events, business optimism had an
other brief period of ascendancy in
October and the early part of No.
vember, when commodity markets,
under the leadership of wheat and
silver, rose sharply, causing sympa-
thetic rallies in the stock and bond
markets.
Once more the improvement
turned out to be short-lived, and the
ensuing reaction has illustrated
again the futility and harmfulness
of false starts" toward recovery.
Perhaps the most significant fea,-
ture of the present period in its
economic bearing is the growing
realization that we are really pass
ing through a relatively peaceful
economic revolution from the years
of postwar imitation to a new era OF
deflation, which must be completed
before any substantial recovery can
be obtained
But We must realize thoroughly
that there has been no repeal of the
old copybook maxims upon which
progress has been built in the
past, and that only as we push the
necessary establishments along the
sound lines of demonstrated eco
nomic law and experience can we
expect progress in the future.

they were brought together in their
sunset years by their common support
of Alfred E. Smith for the presidency
