FORWARD CYCLE
K |NbUS|NESS SEEN
Memorandum by Federal
Economists Suggests
Upward Swing.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The suggestion that an upward
cycle swing in business has begun
was inclosed yesterday in an official
memorandum, drawn by a Federal
economist and circulated among Off
cials in one important Government
agency.
Three other Government econo-
miSts, although unwilling to be
quoted, are known to have tenta-
lively reached this same conclusion.
A cyclical swing is ordinarily un-
derstood to mean a long-term move
ment Of business.
This opinion, however, is not now
held by all Government experts. In
fact. many Of them doubt that there
is such thing as this kind of an
economic cycle. There is evidence on
both sides of the long-term upward
swing thesis.
The principal tangible support of
the theory is the movement of vari-
Gus statistical indicators against the
usual trend. This does not necessarily
mean that conditions now are un-
usually good, but simply that the
economic signals are pointing UP de-
spite depression forces.
$4,000 More JobIess.
The American Federation of Labor
has reported that there are $4,000
more unemployed than in October
last year. While opinion varies as to
the accuracy of this figure and the
Immediate significance, the economists,
seeing the upward swing, hold it is
one OF the unfavorable factors now
slowly and steadily being overcome.
A major item In the analysis Of the
four Government economists who see
an upward trend is that a compara-
lively continuous forward movement
IN the consumption goods industries is
beginning to stimulate the dormant
capital goods industries.
One economist reports that engineer
ing inquiries to machine tool COM
panies are being made in great num-
Der. and that the machine tool business
is better.
Stock Market Stability Cited.
Another gauge Of the gain was cited
In the stability Of the stock market
For the 19 weeks ended November 10
the market was quieter for a longer
period than it has been since the be-
ginning Of 1929.
Considerable significance was at
tached by more than one of the
economists to the Treasury's decision
to allow comparatively free move
ment Of funds out of the United States
This was generally interpreted to mean
that present international monetary
stabiliZation was to be continued
Further evidence of this character was
found in reports that the United States
was acting to prevent the movement
OF foreign gold into this country.

SLUMP END SEEN
IN RAIL SPENDING
Eastman Declares Congress
Must Provide Funds
for Carriers.
nv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, December 1.-Holding
that normal expenditures by the
railroads would go far to break the
back of the depression" Joseph B.
Eastman, Federal railroad co-ordina-
tor, said in Railway Age today that
one of the main objectives in the next
Congress must be the provision Of
funds for the carriers.
Scanning the present needs OF the
railways - moderniZation of equip
ment, new trackage, an accumulation
Of deferred and essential maintenance
work-Eastman asserted:
ut Is clear that the railroads fur
nish an unusual opportunity for the
useful expenditure of large sums OF
money, and that such expenditures
would be of great benefit to the dur
able goods industries and to the entire
country.
Grade Crossing Work Urged.
IT do not mean, of course, that
expenditures should be made on the
railroads merely for the purpose OF
helping other industries. No expendi-
lures should be made which cannot
Justify themselves, ultimately, at
least in dollars and cents results to
the railroads. But even within these
limits there are, or soon will be, large
opportunities. Moreover, there are
large and immediate opportunities for
the use of public funds in the elm
ination of grade crossings which
hope will be utilized, for such a use
of public money can be justified on
many grounds.
1.-The problem is, of course, to make
the necessary funds available for the
railroad expenditures. 1t is a very
difficult problem, but do not believe
that it is insoluble. In any legisla-
tive program for transportation i'm
provement at the next session of Con-
gress, it must and will be kept in the
forefront as one of the main OBJ
jectiveS.'
Rail Survey Taken.
The transportation co-ordinator
related that he had undertaken a sur
vey of railroad operation, equipment,
service and controlling rate policies.
This survey, said Eastman, Is ex-
pected to demonstrate that operation
costs can be trimmed and at the same
time service improved and traffic in
creased by using busses and trucks
to supplement or substitute for rail
equipment.

WHALE SCHEDULED
TO ARRIVE TODAY
68-Ton Monster Will Be on
Display Here Starting
Tomorrow. =

COLOSSUS" the 68-ton whale to be
exhibited at Fourteenth and Water
streets for two weeks. beginning to-
morrow, will arrive here this after
noon, along with a devilfish, man-eat-
ing sharks and other deep-sea Curl
osities.
AS an additional feature during the
exhibition, Capt. Mike Dolan, captor
and owner of the whale, will recount
sea stories and tales of man-eating
sharks as he has done before thou
sands since leaving the docks OF the
Pacific Whaling Co, where the mon
ster was embalmed after its capture
near the California coast.
Evidence that the whale was once
a land-roaming animal is given by
members of the crew who conduct
lecture tours through the specially
constructed railroad car. They ex-
hibit humerus and metacarpal bones,
and the five digits that resemble the
front toes of an ordinary land animal.
Thousands of years ago, it is said,
these creatures roamed the earth, but

ance of smaller fish for food.
There will be no whales left in the
ocean in the course of the next 10
years If they are turned into oil and
whalebone at the rate they have been
in the last 10. the whalers say. More
whales are being killed each year.
The exploding whale harpoon, that
spreads out sharp tongs as soon as it
strikes the whale, and other whaling
methods, are gradually diminishing
the supply.
The one being shown with the
opening of the exhibit tomorrow
morning is said to be more than 100
Years old. A wedding was once per-
formed in its gigantic mouth.

Improved street car service was
urged last night in resolution
adopted by the Takoma Park Citi-
zens' Association at its meeting In
the Takoma Park branch of the
Washington Public Library.
Complaints were made concerning
the crowded condition of the cars
and long waits during rush hours.
The double tracking Of the Kennedy
street branch of the Capital Transit
Co. was advocated, as was also the
need for a cross-town line from the
vicinity of Takoma Park to Bethesda.
Books Need Stressed.
Members favored rerouting the
Georgia avenue cars over Seventh
street south from Florida avenue in
stead OF through u street from Sew
enth to Ninth streets and then south.
This, it was explained, would relieve
tie-ups which frequently occur on U
street between these points. Condi-
tions existing at the terminus Of the
car line at Fourth and Cedar streets
in Takoma Park were termed danger
GUS and establishment Of q safety
zone was urged.
The matter of providing better ia
cilities for school children desiring
ready reference books, which must be
obtained from the main Office, was
stressed and efforts will be made to
have more of them at the local
library.

What accounts for this differ.
encei :. To all appearances,
they seem equally prepared for
exposure. They have taken the
same outward precautions, such
as bundling up, wearing rubbers,
and carrying an umbrella.
The important difference is in
their physical condition-in the
amount of resistance they havel
One takes precautions in ad-
vance to keep her resistance
built up. The other waits until
she feels the weather before
thinking of her physical condi-
tion.
Which description fits you7
Why not try to come through

Start now with something which
aids in building resistance
Squibb Adex Tablets-10 D!
Squibb Adex tablets are a con-
eentrate OF the protective vita
minis in halibut- and cod-liver oil

In being the only product to
