three major events have seriously

Happier events are found in
the solution OF the Chinese East

source OF trouble. Japan threat

You think" In August, the dur

of the years 1923-25.) Nondnr-

making cement. steel, metals,
lumber and other products which
don't wear out rapidly are still at
the bottom, while the makers OF
food. clothes, tobacco and all the
things which have a short life are
experiencing relative prosperity.
Department store sales are well
above what seasonal experience
would lead Us to expect-these
stores, OF course, deal primarily
in nOndurable goods
1t isn't hard To trace the reason
back OF this. 1t can be expressed
in two words: Government spend
ing. Government is dealing out
billions for relief through its vari-
Gus agencies, and the bulk of this
money goes at once into such
necessaries as food, clothing, fuel.
Almost none OF it is used for pur-
poses which would stimulate the
production Of heavy industries.
People who, after long unemploy-
ment, get three or four dollars a
day, buy food and clothing-but
they don't buy new homes, auto
mobiles or motor boats.
The problem the government
faces now is to bring the heavy
industries up to the level reached
by the nondurable goods indus

problenl-and as its first step Is
