D. c. WOMAN FINDS.
FRANCE IN TENSION
Mrs. w. L. SIattery Returns
to Native Paris-Sees
Future Uncertain.

Premier Leon Blum's new Popular
Front cabinet assumed Office in France
in the midst of a tenseness described
by a Washington woman as some
thing intangible; yet like a sleeping
tiger. You wonder when 1t might
wake up and strike"
The description has come from Mrs.
William L. Slattery, wife Of the con-
troller and budget officer OF the
United States Post Office Department,
who has returned to her native city
of Paris, while Mr. Slattery is making
an official tour of the West.
Many Of the old sights are familiar,
Mrs. Slattery wrote, but fear Of the
future and Threatening black cloud
seems to hang over all of the once
gayest capital.
ITO all outward appearances, every
thing is quiet; but when I went to
the market in the Ternes district, a
fairly good neighborhood of the mid
die class, you could see what might
happen to peoples minds when there
IS possibility of trouble"
Housewives Buy Dry Goods.
Housewives, she wrote, were buying
''all dry goods, such as dry beans,
peas, lentils, spaghetti-and most
likely forgetting the tomatoes for the
sauce"
Bakeries are emptied as soon as
the bread comes from the ovens and
-four is bought by the 3-to-5-pound
bag, when usually half pound is as
much as any one has in their home
at any time.
prices are going up as much as 40
per cent. Milk is still plentiful and
as bad as ever, never as rich as
American milk.
"Taxis are scarce, as the supply Of
gasoline is low in Paris, no recent
supplies having arrived, owing to the
strike.
This is such a strange strike" Mrs.
Slattery continued. "Workmen and
their chiefs are all locked in together,
but in the large factories we could
say a good time was had by all.
Entertainment that our Maj. Bowes
would appreciate keeps them occu-
pied. Al sorts Of talent may be dis
covered that way, but to me it seems
so pitiful, their laughter reminds me
Of Pagliacci."
Fears Government Won't Last.
Mrs. Slattery also said that in spite
Of M. Blum's appeal for support and
his pledges Of help for the workers,
there is q feeling the government els
not going to last"
MY country men and women seem
quite different to me. Always excit-
able and quick-tempered, this hate
and sour feeling toward the well-to-do
classes seems strange, and yet, like
children, they dance behind the
locked doors"
With it all, however, Mrs. Slattery
was glad once more to visit her home
land.
1T is my Paris" she said, "and 1t
Is as exciting as the first time a child
sees the circus. To me it is still the
place where things are at their best
The grocery store this morning was
as beautiful in my eyes as the most
beautiful Christmas tree that ever
saw"
Mrs. Slattery has been away from
France for five years, three and a
half Of which have been spent In
Washington. The Slatteryss make
their home ct Kensington.

ADEQUATE NATIONAL DEFENSE
NECESSARY FOR SECURITY

We have heard lot about security of
various kinds these last few months
social security, industrial security and
individual security. John R. Quinn,
speaking at the Imperial Valley Armis-
tice Day celebration. took as his subject
a security without which none of the
others can exist 1t is security against
war.
Pacifists contend that armed forces
breed conflict, that security can only
be had when all nations disarm entirely.
They may be right. But the nations OF
the world are still long, long way from
disarmament For the type of security
the pacifists seek, all the guns of all
the nations would have to be scrapped
at the same time. If just one nation re-
fused to disarm, there would not be
security.
Internationalism is all right in its
place. but there are too many nation
alists in the world today to make 1t
practical. The United States must think
first of the United States, secondly OF
the other nations. This country can
best preserve its own peace by showing
the other nations that it is strong enough
TO enforce peace with arms, II necessary.
Just now it is not theory, not merely
al
adopt program of adequate natlonai
defense. 1t is necessary.
1t is necessary because the other ma
tions of the world are bristling with
ornaments. 1t is necessary because the
United States needs more than words
to back up its diplomacy. This country,
the most wealthy in the world, would
be an enticing tidbit in the game OF IN
ternational politics should it abandon
it's defenses, or permit them to become
materially weakened. The nations OF the
world are not unselfish philanthropists,
pacifists and internationalists to the
contrary. Some day, perhaps. they VIII
become what they should be, vemcles
to carry the common good. Until that
day arrives, it is a foolish nation that
allows itself to become easy prey.
No American wants war Any true
American would go a long way to keep
out of it. An argument for adequate ma
tional defense is not an argument Tor
war. but against it. By making itself
strong enough to repel aggression, the
United States will assure itself OF peace
otherwise it takes its own chances.

CONGRESS WILL BE

Congress may come and go-but 1t is

Sen. Kenneth D. Mcclellan publicly
announced his intention to call Tor
congressional investigation of the recen.
Literary Digest poll which he calls
wicked. costly and apparently dlsnon-
est" He must have bet on the election.
The election is over. Whatever Ill
feeling it bred should be allowed TO
rest in peace. The greatest loser in the
Literary Digest poll, which preoicteo
Iandon victory, was the Literary Digest
itself. That any publication should
knowingly engage in dishonest under,
taking on the scope of the Digest poil
is hard to imagine Something undoupt-

conducting the poll, but it is up to the
Digest publishers to find out what that
something is. If the publishers are
smart, and if congress follows Sen. NC
Kellar's leadership, congress may DO II
for them. and save them money.
If Sen. McKellar's wish is to discrediit
the Literary Digest, he probably Will
fail. His proposed investigation would
free the Digest of any blame except as

exists. The senator would do well to
hunt other ways of spending congress

Columbia University. The two planned pro-

Farley and the political experts were busy

Moey recruited others, notably Rex Tugwell

Then Moey made the mistake OF accepting
the post of assistant secretary of state and be-
came target for many brickbats. His blow-up

to move Moley into a more ambiguous post but

MONEY PHASES OF RECOVERY
-. Wall Street JournaD

Many people, viewing the movement of the
security markets following the election
puzzled by a seeming paradox. Government
obligations have been in notable demand at
peak prices. Stocks have risen Sharply and
spectators again talking of initiation as
the cause of the rise If one were to give to
that word its proper meaning-that is an un-
necessary increase in the volume of currency
it would obviously introduce an inconsistency
between the reasoning and the facts, for the
inflationary process that drives stocks up tends
to keep bonds down. 1t does not however
appear that the word as commonly used now is
intended 10 mean anything more than gen.
eral process Of increasing production, increas-
ing of credit and rising commodity prices
with rising profits for industry and business-in
short, that kind of natural recovery" that has
invariably followed upon past depressions.
1t is true that all such recoveries have begun
with an abundance of available capital and
credit at low rates of interest and that they
gathered strength and volume interest yields in
variably Thus long period the
prices of the highest types of bonds tended to
fall as the prices of commodities and stocks
But this divergence~ef price was always
slow to make its appearance and only became
clearly marked in the later stages of the recov-
cry. With capital and credit in their present
state of overabundance, there is nothing abb
normal in simultaneous demand for gilt-edged
bonds and for stock equities with at the same
time abnormally low rates of interest-espe-
cialy cheap money is admittedly of the
main objectives of the Administration.
Recovery of the kind described above has
clearly Jagged in this country. 1t is possible
TO date recognition of its advent by spectators
not earlier than about year and half ago
If one may take the new investment of capital,
as distinguished from all forms of refunding or
exchange of security for another, a par
tal indication of its progress it is still in very
early stage. For the quarter ended September
30 the statistics of capital registrations with
the Security g. Exchange Commission showed
this year investment amounting to over
228000000 as against about S63 100000 last year.
The figure for this year is. of course absolutely
small, but it accounts for one-third of this
years total registrations as against only about
7%o Of last year'S-a notable because definite,
change. That present speculative opinion fore
casts further and large growth in this kind of
investment seems to be clear
Thus it is fair to say that the seeming para
dox is not, so far, real paradox
