Girl Filler Visits Two Royal
Societies as Guest
OF Honor.

BIZ nifcd Pvess
LONDON. May 26.-Amelia Ear
hart Putnam. first woman TO fly the
Atlantic alone, is shattering two
British traditions in one day by
visiting two royal societies today.
She had lunch as honor guest of
the Royal Aero Club. where she was
accompanied by Lady Bailey. Amy
johnson and Winifred Spooner,
British women fiiers.
She acknowledged the honor in
a brief informal speech. in which
she recounted the high spots Of her
flight Lord Wakefield thanked her
in behalf of the Royal Aero Club.
Tonight Miss Earhart Will attend
the council Of the Royal Aeronau-
teal Society, the first woman to
do so.
Miss johnson called on Mrs.
Putnam at the residence of Am
baSsador Andrew w. Mellon. They
talked for more than an hour.
J. A. Mollison. Miss Johnson's
fance, accompanied her. Mollison
holds the record for a flight from
England to Capetown, and is plan
ming round trip flight from Lon
don 10 New York this season.
Miss johnson was the first
woman TO fly alone from England
to Australia, and has made flights
TO the far east. She was unknown
to aviation when Amelia Earhart,
then a Boston social worker and
now the first woman to fly the At
lantic alone, was a passenger on an
Atlantic flight in 1923.

AVIATION Gains
USE Up GAS

Airplanes in the United States
consumed approximately 900 per
cent more gasoline in 1881 than
in 1926, according to the research
department of the Sinclair Rein
ing Company. Nearly $1,000, 900
gallons of gasoline were required
for flying operations during 1881
as against slightly more than
3,25O,O00 gallons in 1925.
Aviation lubricating oil showed
a corresponding increase and rose
from 164,482 gallons in 1926 to
1,178,669 gallons in 1881.
AS an indication of the progress
made in the United States in the
development of air transporta-
ton, it was stated that in 1925
there were only 18 regular Sched-
uled services, as against 1875 to-
day. These scheduled services
cover the United States with a
network of airways and include
destinations to points outside OF
the country as we'll.
While approximately 47,OOO,O 600
miles we're flown by scheduled serV-
ices in 1881, this was only about
half the mileage covered by So
called miscellaneous flying, which
includes charter flying, instruc-
ton, advertising, crop dusting,
aerial surveying, photography and
many other minor operations.
Superior motors and improved
ship design account in a large
measure for the better mileage re-
suits obtained, but improved refin-
ing methods resulting in better
gasoline and lubricating oils have
played an important part in the
advancement of aviation.
Gasoline consumption by estab-
lished airwayS increased from
863,617 gallons in 1925 to 1887
382 gallons, while the mileage de-
creased frorE five miles to two
and one-haf miles per gallon, due
to the heavier and more COM
modiouS ships in regular service
today, some of which accommo-
date more than than 80 passen-
gers.
On the other hand, misceIiane-
Gus flying showed a mileage in
crease per gallon of from seven
and three-fourths gallons in 1925
to more than eight miles in 1881
and consumed 11,658,009 gallons
of gasoline in 1881 as against
2,426,028 gallons in 1926.

COTTON PRICES
SHOW LITTLE
CHANGE

NEW YORK, Oct. q GN.S0.
Cotton futures today moved within
a narrow trading range at ap-
proximately last nights closing
levels.
The chief support again came
from trade sources, with brokers
acting for Far Eastern accounts
a small buyer of distant months.
Co-operatives and Liverpool also
made a fair amount of purchases.
Contracts Limited
Contracts were supplied, in the
main, by Wall Street, and wire
houses. Hedge and Southern sell
ing was small.
Reports of a deal to dispose
of some of the Governments sur.
plus cotton abroad, were again in
circulation today.
Diminished rainfall was shown
On the cotton map. There was
light to moderate rain in the
Eastern section, but the rest of
the belt was fair.
No Frost Reported
Temperatures at all stations
were we'll above the freezing point.
Midday prices we're unchanged

market IS HELD
/. IN GOOD SHAPE
TECHNICALLY

BY WALL STREET SPECTATOR
~ NEW YORK, Oct. q G.N.S0 .
fThey won't go down, so maybe
.they'll go up.
* With this old slogan in mind,
wall Street turned to the buying
side Yesterday. The shorts got
nervous when they found that
liquidation didn't come in despite
the fact the market looked bad.
Which explains the rally.
Technical Shape Good
~ It must be said, though, that
the market must be in exceed
tngly good shape technically to
have been able to withstand the
( shocks of the last few days, such
! as the break in grains and weak
! ness in bonds, as well as it did.
2. The obvious conclusion is that
Stocks have been going into
strong hands steadily and won't
!. come out unless something hap
pens to change the belief that
( business has at last seen that
Corner we've all been looking for.
The latest muddle in the crude
oil situation raised some question
about the Standard Oil of New
Jersey extra dividend, which
comes up next week. There seems
little to worry about, however,
for 26 Broadway, the citadel of
the Rockefellers, is conducting a
big buying operation in the stock,
we are told.
One of their brokers, tits said,
has been glued to the Jersey
Standard post for several days
and doesn't even go out for lunch.
They've done lot of buying in
Socony Vacuum, too.
More Grain Gossip
The gossips say that Tom
Howell and Arthur Cutten, the
two big boys in the grain market,
will go into wheat if it goes to
around AZ cents. Looks as
though the worst of the spill in
grains is over anyway. There
won't be much hedging at these
prices.
Strength in homestake mining,
the only secure blue chip left,
was accompanied by the report
that earnings for the year would
run around $19 a share.
The Washington times., 1932-10-27
BY LEWIS HANEY
Professor of Economics New
York University

What good is there in being
pessinistic about business? Is
it not better to be optimistic?
The answers to these ques,
tions are really very easy and
simple. The only sound atti-
tude toward business is one see
ing the facts as they are, and
seeking to anticipate the prob
able results, whatever they may
be.
Two Courses Open
If the results of a given
course which we are following
promise to be unfavorable, there
are only two things to do. We
may either change the course
and adopt new policies, or we
may prepare ourselves for the
worst.
There is no use in being "pes-
simistic" unless we are facing the
facts and those facts are bad.
But if the actual conditions are
unfavorable the only hope lies
in seeing them as they are, and
taking the correct steps to deal
with them.
You can not make a bad
situation good by ignoring it or
by smiling at it. You must see
it as it is, and correct it.
Something to Do
So it is with our Government
finances. We will never get any
where by denying an unbalanced
budget and a growing deficit
Hoping that it will come out
all right will do no good. Some
thing must be done about It,
either through drastic economies
or heavier taxes or both.
The recent dismay over Mon
tagu Norman's "pessimistic" re
marks is in point. For the life
of me I cannot see why they
should have seemed so striking.
All Mr.. Norman said is that
the outlook is dark, that the light
ahead can be seen but indis'

Sound Sense to Face Facts
In Trade, Haney Says

tinctly, and that the way out Is
not clear.
Isn't that the simple truth?
Has any thoughtful man hao
any other idea?
Must Get Busy
The moral is not pessimlsm,
but caution and continued effort
to clear the way by. sound cor
rective measures. And these
things can come only as we see
the facts as they truly are.
The most hopeful aspect OF
things today is that so many
people are less blindly optimistic
They are Saner. They are more
soberly realizing the true nature
of our problems.
For example, as long as debt
ors and creditors imagined that
a boom was lust around the
corner" what chance was there
for action on their part to clear
away the deadly mass of debt?
AS long as the farmers imagine
that wheat is worth a dollar a
bushel and cotton is worth 16
cents a pound, will they not fail
to make the necessary readjust'
mentS?
Go Deeper in Debt
They will neither reduce their
production sufficiently nor cease
getting deeper into debt, as long
as they think they see recovery
day after tomorrow.
AS long as all of us hoped that
some juggling with Reserve Bank
credit or loans made by the r,
F. c. could win an imaginary bat
tie with the demon, Depression,
we hesitated to take the bitter
medicine that will cure business.
But now we are seeing a little
more clearly and we may at last
hope that Government finances
may be Strengthened out and in
solvent businesses be put into a
liquid condition.
Business conditions are not yet
right, but there is now a healthier
realization Of what the problem
is than at any time in years.
Out of this is bound to come the
ultimate recovery.
