"SHE GOT THE JOB!"

A young lady recently inserted the
following advertisement in a Kansas
City newspaper, received 100 answers
the next day and got good job:

Here is Miss Zada Spencer's own
of her most unusual ad-
vertisement:

seventy -four-year-old uncle. Two
years ago I lost a $16-a-week job in

WHY HAVE BANK FAILURES?

WHY HAVE BANK FAILURES?
They do some things better abroad.
Banking, for instance.
In the first full three years of the
depression-1930, 1881 and 1882, 5,102
banks in the United States closed their
doors, tying UP deposits of $42S, ,2O6,-
900.
In the first two months and four
days Of 1933-that is, before the bank
holiday of ten days, 420 more banks
closed, and all the rest seemed on the
edge of doing so.
How desperate the situation was is
shown by the fact that 4,580 banks
remained closed after the holiday end
ed. Most of these have been opened
or merged with other banks since; but
at this writing, nearly 400 are still
tiidOiC W SSSuIS q lSQCIdl llCS1lSG.
But-and this is both the milk and
the meat in the cocoanut-not single
bank in either Great Britain or Can
ada was closed in the same time.
The insurance of bank deposits has
helped to bring bank failures to a
very low point since it has been in
effect, and has abolished the losses of
depositors in the two or three banks that
have failed. But why allow bank fail
ures at all? IF Canada and Great
Britain can get along without bank
busting, why cannot we do the same :?
Or, why not like in Hamilton, where
we have no bank busting? Nor in
building associations.

the conclusion of the presidents COM
mittee for the drafting of an "eco-
nomic security" program, published,
as it happened, simultaneously with
DR.. Lubin's fgures-the conclusion,
namely, that unemployment is Amer
ica's greatest problem. The commit
tee, whose executive director is DIR.
Edwin E. Wittee, of the University
of Wisconsin, reports that there is
serious unemployment even in compar-
atively good times and hence that "un-
employment has become a permanent
problem and must be dealt with as
such"
The committee estimates that 25
percent of the nations wage earners
are today unemployed. There has been
a downward trend from the peak of
over 100000 reached in March,
1888, but in the recent months the
swing has been upward.
Such are the facts. Not by blinking
them, but only by facing them square
ly, can we hope to make start toward
the solution of the unemployment
problem. 1t is by the degree to which
this problem is solved that all recovery
efforts must ultimately be tested.-St.
Louis Post-Dispatch.

RATTLING OF DRY BONES

When the A. F. of L. abandoned it's
traditional policy of craft unionism at
the San Francisco convention there
was quick response from the re-
dictionary element of the employers.
Imma adiately there was great rumbling
and much grumbling. There was an
awakening and a rattling of the dry
bones in the valley of the Jehoshaphat.
Some of the more advanced think
ers, like a number of the bigger men
IN the oil industry, were pleased with
the action taken at the convention.
Others, in other industries, were
alarmed. The General Motors reac-
tion was quick and the management
acted promptly and decisively. The
answer was to speed up the action in
forming series of company unions
or one big union dominated by the
masters in the industry.
Plans that have been in the making

WHO BEARS THE BURDEN?

It is often said that laborers, in
cluding both white-collar and hand
workmen, have suffered more from de-
preston than have investors, and that
most of the burden of hard times has
fallen on those least able to bear it.
Now recent studies, produced by the
National Bureau Of Economic Re-
search, decisively destroy this belief.
During the years 1880, 1881 and 1882,
for which complete statistics have been
collected, industrial profits practically
ceased to exist. American business did
not even break event was forced to
fall back upon the reserves built up
during better times to meet it's obli-
cations.
In 1929, for example, business paid
out $s1 100000, while earnings
totaled $S3, ,OOO, ,OOO, 900, leaving profit
of $1,000, 100000. In 1880 expenses
paid out exceeded income by over
$4,000, 100000. In 1882, the deficit
caused by expenses exceeding earnings
amounted to almost $4,000, ,000, 900
No comparable survey has been made
for the years since then, but reports
indicate that industry has undergone
a similar experience.
Both capital and labor have neces.
sarily taken it on the chin during de-
preston, and capital has absorbed
much of the loss.
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1934-11-09

The bankers have been on the inside
of the looting of every natural re-
source.
And now we seem to have come to
q point where the bankers must be
promised that there will be no more
.encroachment" or they won't play.
It wasn't "encroachment" when the
bankers were cutting in on the people,
taking toll from every particle OF
toll. That was business.
The best way for the New Deal
to cease being an inspiration is for
it to get shaky in the knees, to for
get the brave, fine words OF yes
terday and to let the marauders
back into the public pasture for
another bite at the public shins.
If any single thing inspired the
American people to go hook, line and
sinker for the New Deal it was that
one flaming castigation of the money
changers and the pledge to throw them
out.
Up to this time it seems the bankers
have not recaptured Washington.

AMERICAS GREATEST PROBLEM

The unemployment problem in the
United States has been succinctly
stated by DIR. Isador Lubin, United
States commissioner of labor statis-
tics. Even should we regain the pro-
duction levels of 1929, he says, there
would still be 100000 employable
persons without jobs. Three factors
have contributed to this condition
the displacement of men by machinery,
the growth of population, the forcing
of business men and farmers (the lat
ter through crop reduction programs)
out of small independent callings.
On the assumption that two and a
half persons are dependent on each
worker, DR.. Lubin points out that an
unemployment total of 100000 per-
sons means 10,500,G00 on relief rolls.
Other authorities in this field, includ-
ing Gen. Johnson, have estimated that
a restoration of the 1929 conditions in
business and industry would leave an
even greater total 100000 to 5,0OO,-
O0O-unemployed.
The exact size of the jobless army
is beside the point. The fact that there
would be such an army, even under

,ept as denoting prosperity is the

LABOR IN NAZI GERMANY

The Prussian minister for home
affairs has promulgated an order re-
garding the issue of passports which
throws light on labor conditions in
Germany. The decree lays down that,
in order to prevent injury to German
industry, passports for persons who
are not definitely known or thought
to be highly-specialized workers" are
in future only to be issued with the
permission of the competent labor
office.
1t looks as if the highly-specialized
workers in Germany are so dissatis-
fed with the living conditions, de-
pressed wages and the tyranny Of the
factory, that one year of Hitler rule
had been enough to send them abroad,
where they can live in freedom and
receive wages which are denied to
them in Germany. This refusal to
grant them passports makes them into
involuntary prisoners upon whom are
to be forced the blessings of Fascism.
Just one more proof that Nazi Ger

we tell the truth
about many things, sometimes pro-
foundly, sometimes Aippantly,
sometimes recklessly.

Bankers have been walking the
streets with an open demand to know
why they are not entitled to the good
will of other years. They have been
in convention and perhaps they found
courage in numbers.
Some of the bankers fired some hot
shots at the administration.
Well, there are some good bank
ers. of course, but the country isn't
exactly flooded with them.
Just why administration officials
find it necessary to walk softly in
their presence is hard to see.
