The Conference of Governors.
(New York Herald Tribune

-O~-- Without expecting too much to be accomplished by Governor Roosevelt's brief conference of Gov lernors we think the country will approve the He is certainly striking while the iron is hot. The influence of President is so great in those first rosy weeks As head of his party the new President will speak with a voice of great authority to the thirty-eight Democratic Governors there assembled. If he can there and then, the 6th of March, set forces in motion which will help solve the vitaly important problems that have arisen between Washington and the State capitols he will have done much
 The proposed schedule of agenda is interesting alike for its inclusions and for notable omis- sion. The first three items admirably chosen. Conflicting taxation, Federal aid for unemployment and the vexed problem of mortgage foreclosures, all call for a new cooperation. The last of the three, have pointed out in these columns can best be solved locally by the States; but there is every why the nation should understand what the States doing well why the States should compare notes and the whole mass of action be soundly organized
 The last two items Governor Roosevelts list belong in different category. They fit rather into that far-flung vision of deal to which the new Administration is pledged and their present importance seems far from pressing Just what a one-day talk can do with them is little hard to conceive
 The omission is of course, the failure to include repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment. Governor Roosevelt might justify his silence the ground that the President has no constitutional authority with respect to amendments He is careful to Ileave the door open for the suggestion of "other subjects" by the Governors. Quite properly repeal might be brought up for debate by such executive as Governor Ritchie for example. It most certainly
 should be, for it is the of the whole financial problem of the Federal Government and it has an Important bearing upon the fiscal problems of the States.
 billion dollars of Federal revenue is in sight here, ample to solve the whole emergency of the Federal budget. Enough State revenue is in sight lsave in the Prohibition States, to avoid the most crushing of State taxes. How achieve this desired lendfor which the whole country voted at the last Der of puzzing practical difficulties lie in the way as the series of articles by MT. Allen Raymond in the Herald Tribune has made clear Surely better body could be found to debate and solve these problems than conference of Governors

A Nation Poised.
Cincinnati Enquirer.J

At no time since the low price levels and stag nant business of July 1892 has the country generally been so nearly inert. It is not that prices are oe- clining greatly, nor that business is falling off. It is rather atmosphere of waiting that characterzes the present moment. Essential industries plod- ding along New construction and ambitious plans for larger production held in abeyance. There is certain doggedness of carrying at low levels, and absence of the determined attack that alone will establish recovery
 Undoubtedly this condition is direct reflection of political factors. The Nation voted MT. Hoover out of office Incidentally it voted MT. Roosevelt into office. But the Nation does not know yet just what they voted for. It does not know thus far what the nature of MT Rosevelt's Cabinet will be, and has only vague index of what the Con- gress will try to do
 Disillusion is wholesome quality when it enables men and women to cast aside hopes and inflated tunate quality of mind and spirit when it thwarts of waiting and a somnoescent business machine are human psychology operates as it has in the past signal for inaugurating also mental attitude. This in turn is certain to have restorative effect on the physical factors in business.
 There is no evidence that any important groups in the Nation are unwilling to cooperate with the new Administration. They are waiting, reserving judgment That is the result of disllusion. But genuine leadership will bring genuine response. We Nation poised. In the patience and dis eliminating Judgment clearly displayed there is ground for high hope.

WAGE LEVELS AND RECOVERY.

2 On point is there greater diversity of opin- ion than the question of wage levels and their relation to business recovery When the depression set in President Hoover and group of outstanding industrial leaders undertook to maintain wage levels as the surest means of preventing general decline of consumption and preventing the stagnation of business. This policy has been adhered to more strictly than in other periods of depression business but after two years the sentiment for wage reduc- tions developed greatly. In general the hourly rate has been reduced little. But dismissal of workmer and reduction of working hours has in effect cut total wage payments very drastically. This cut is at once a result of depression and cause of deep- ened trade stagnation
 Unfortunately there is no agreement among un- biased students of the problem to the right policy concerning wage levels. One school of econ omic thought backed by labor naturally, maintains the one way out is through putting more purchasing bowers in the hands of wage earners, who spend al once what they receive. This group maintains tha wages should be maintained at high, even unprofit ablelevels Otherwise they assert the consuming mower of the nation is reduced and the hope ot recovery is thereby reduced ,.
 An equally impressive argument is offered by
