 Two other problems should be mentioned.

 Whether the White House staff of secret service guards is en- larged or not as a measure of added precautlon, it may undergo some shifts of personnel after March 4 since Gus Gemerich, per- sonal attendant to Roosevelt, will accompany him here. .
 Veteran Has Served 25 Years
 In any case the staff is quite certain to. include Richard Jervis, Chief of the White House Secret Service staff, who has been at the White Hodse the last 25 years. Nor are, the changes likely to in- elude Col. E. W. Startling or George Dresher, also old-timers.

 Keep 24-Hour Guard The Chief Executive never leaves the White House without some of the Secret Service agents being nearby The precaution has not always been part of the formali- ties surrounding the President. It was put into force following the assassination of President McKin- Hey.
 Roosevelt will find two or three of the agents always stationed just outside his office in the west wing of the White House. Even when he sits down to quiet family dinner or goes to- sleep, there will ne one of these watchful, taciturn men. stationed just outside the door of the room.

The problem with regard to the standard of living in the next few years will be to prevent it from being lowered.
 We probably shall be slow in coming out of the present depres- sioil., It may take from one to three or four years. in which case the economic forces will be driving down the living standards. It has taken long time to bring them to the present level.
 For 10 or Is years following the opening of the century the change iii the standard of life was very slow for the wage earners. It moved up more rapidly during the war period and thereafter. It would ckrtainly be loss to mankind ii the gains of a third of a century should be lost in the few years oi the present depression.

: Problem For Young People 7

Problem Fer fCung Peopie It is also serious for the young people who have been out of high school three. four or five years and have been given no opportun- ity to form habits of thrift, skill, and ambition because of lack of employment.
 When the present crisis is past, but let us hope not forget, the great task will be to raise the standard of living.
 Many times in history the fight for more Of the good things of E life has led to revolution and ap- propriation. of land and property from those who have by those who have not.
 "Redistributing Wealth One Way The simplest way of raising the standard of living seems to be to !redistribute wealth. This has been the constant theme of radicals, but now new program has aris- l en showing that by increasing production and distribution the standard of living will also be raised
 If all Of the wealth of the world were divided ekually among every person, the rise in the standard of living would only be slight and perhaps temporary, but if an ec-
 onomic organization can be, worked
 cut so that more goods are pro-
 duced and distributed. the stand
 ard of living may be increased
 more effectively.
 The present depression mas ] thrown a new light on this prob J lem for now we have plenty of l production and bulging warehous- les, but lowered standard of liv- ing and hungry men.
 l The problem is to work out an
 economic organization so the ca :, pacity of purchase will flow along lat the same rate as the capacity
 to produce. If this problem can
 be solved the danger of regres- sion to the standards of misery Iof earlier times will be removed land prospects of a much higher standard of living will be in sight
