Nevertheless. the week witnessed
extension Of the striking gain In bank
Ing confidence that had begun with
the reopenings. just as currency cir
culation had increased by record
breaking amounts as the crisis reach

flowing back with unprecedented rap

Gold reserves Of the central system
swelled $181 ,545, 900, member banks re-
duced their borrowing 1861 AT 900 and
federal reserve note circulation

Wall Street took this relapse calmly,
calling 1t q technical reaction from

were set back substantially.

RYAN LAYS SLUMP
TO 0VERPRODUCTION
Intelligence Falling Behind, Edu-
cater Tells Academy of
World Economics.

Speaking before the Academy of
World Economics, which met last night
Ia Castor Hall at Georgetown Univer-
atty, DR.. John A. Ryan of Catholic
University said the capacity for over
production in the important industries
Of the world is the reason for the pres
ent worldwide economic depression.
I'm the distribution and control of
production" DR.. Ryan said, human in
telligence has fallen far behind the
market set in increasing this same pro-
duction. In other words, production
capacity has been increased out of all
proportion to consumption capacity"
For remedying the present situation
the speaker offered for consideration
three factors-extension of public works,
higher wages and shorter hours. He
also advocated the lowering Of interest
rates on money.
Leifur MagnusSon, director OF the
local Office of the International Labor
Organization, who is chairman of the
academy, urged emphasis on the laborer
as a consumer rather than as a cost in
production. Miss Mary Anderson, chief
of the Women's Bureau, another speaker,
protested against wage reductions.
Wages Of workers must be maintained,
she declared, if the purchasing power
Is to be maintained.
DR.. Lewis l.. Lorin of the Brookings
Institution also addressed the academy.
He styled himself an optinist who
thought that things would be better
next year, but that they still would be
bad for a long time to come"
