Roosevelt's desk today after an
aerial journey from the Wiscon-

permitted Lloyd w. ViZay, repre-

could return to tell his sponsors
that delivery had been made.
From Seven Breweries
The cases were made up of
bottles taken from the city's seven
breweries.

FLOODING AMERICAN MARKETS

Of late great deal has been heard
concerning countries which have gone off
the gold standard and then, with the price
advantage thus obtained, have flooded the
American market with their products. Still
higher tariff barriers have been demanded
by many to prevent this sort of COM
petition.
The only trouble with that theory is
that non-gold standard countries haven't
been flooding our market. In 1882 our
imports were valued at 81 per cent less
than in 1931-While the average price de-
cline during the year was only IL per
cent. The two principal countries which
are off the gold standard-Japan and the
United Kingdom-sold us goods valued at
So per cent and as per cent less, re-
spectively
If the SUPER rotectionists had their
way, complete economic isolation for the
United States would be the inevitable re-
sult-and it's pretty well demonstrated
that any country trying to live remote and
alone in the modern world, is doomed to
perpetual distress. 1t is one thing to pro-
tect American industries and workers from
dangerous mpetition-another to PRO
tect" them from competition which doesn't
exist. A siZeable flow of commerce be-
tween the great powers would be the most
potent of all elements in obtaining and
maintaining world stability.

AWFUL POSSIBILITIES

Horrible as were some of the engines
of death employed in the World War, they
were probably far less destructive than
those which might be brought into play in
q future death struggle of nations
Prof Leonard Hill, in his address as
president before London sanitary as
ISOLATION, recently cited one possibility
which is terrifying in its implications. He
declared that a certain kind of germ which
can be easily cultivated is so deadly that
a spoonful suitably distributed could kill
million persons.
This is not the first time such
measures for the determination of troops
another great war have been limited at.
And there is little use to argue that such
diabolical means, if developed, would not
be used.
Poison gas in warfare was condemned
and agreements to avoid its employment
were made long before the World War,
but it was used with telling effect by both
sides after the Germans resorted to it at
Ypres in April 1915. Our own experts de-
clare that chemical warfare will play far
more important role in any future war.
And there is not the slightest doubt that
disease germs would be likewise en-
ployed il a practical method of doing so
were developed.
With all these added horrors in pros
pect it is little wonder that thoughtful
persons everywhere are seeking to prevent
another world tragedy, which might easily
wipe out entire populations. Civilization
must preserve peace, or perish by the in
struments of destruction which it has
created.

STOCKS AND BONDS

Wall Street seems to have been slump
ing bit during the last week or so, and
this is no time to speculate.
As far as resources are concerned, all
the large corporations are much worse off
today than they were year ago, and as a
consequence. their securities are worth
much less. Their prospects may be brighter
than they were year ago. but after all,
they are only prospects and are subject to
chance.
The Inauguration of Roosevelt and
the change in administration may bring
renewed hope to the country. This may
be reflected in the stock market, but then
again, it may not. The chances are that
there will be slight slump prior to the
Inauguration. bit of a rise Immediately
after it, with another slump following.
The time will soon be here to do a
little purchasing, if there is any money left
to do it with, but that time is not quite
here.
Good advice is to say out of the mar
ket for little longer. or until something
definite has occurred TO justify the belief
that business is on the mend.
