Sinking of Panay Cited as
Cause to Change
Armaments.

By the Associated Press.
The Panay sinking may bring about
change in the armament Of United
States gunboats.
A Navy Department official said
today the sinking had disclosed the
necessity of giving them more modern
anti-aircraft equipment.
Gunboats, he said, had been de-
signed to protect Americans and
American interests against bandits and
pirates operating on land and water
and no special thought had been given
to offense and defense with regard to
the air.
In addition to machine guns, the
Panay was armed with two 3-inch
guns. However, one was put out of
commission by the first shower of
bombs. The other was not used in the
confusion, probably because half the
crew was wounded and the remainder
were engaged in hauling wounded to
safety and in manning the machine
guns. The three-inch gun requires a
gun crew of six to eight.
AL ally eNeuI, CHe TaHdyS s CnTee-lncn
guns were not really effective against
aircraft because they did not have
mechanical anti-aircraft sighting
equipment. The Navy official said it
would be like shooting at flying ducks
with sightless rifle.
He said there was no thought of
putting deck armor on the gunboats
as . defense against aircraft because
they must be light enough for river
navigation.

AS Dorothy Thompson wrote a
few weeks ago, ''The capacity OF
this country to weather another
depression, before the serious So
cial, economic and political eff
fects of the last one have worn
off, is one great big question
mark" 1t is this question mark"
which is perhaps the most unset
ting factor in the current situa-
ton. Industrial production has
widely declined. Securities are
combing the price depths. Bush
ness sentiment is even worse
than the business production fig
ures-principally, because of
doubt as to the future, and fear
of what the coming months may
bring. In other words, the sta
tistics are bad-but the imponder
ables, such as investor psychology.
are a great deal worse. 1t is this
tremendously important factor
which makes the post-September
drop something different than
just another recession in a long
pull recovery movement. And it
is this which is responsible for the
amazing variety of present-day
forecasts as to the trend of COM
ing events. One school, including
government officials and other
New Deal partisans, tends to min
irnize the recession so far as pos
sible, and to make it seem less Sc
we're. than it actually is. Another
school, which includes those who
are exceedingly opposed to all of
the acts and detectives of the Adj
ministration, tries to make the
picture even darker than it is. To
try to strike the happy medium,
between the apostles of sweetness
and light on the hand, and the
bearers of the blacklist tidings on
the other, is the tough job that
confronts any annalist today.
First, some facts. The country
has not yet felt the full brunt of
the drop, though more and more
of the impact is becoming visible
daily. The employment situation
will be grave this winter. During
October, about 100000 workers
were laid off. During November,
the number reached 100000, ac-
cording to the best estimates OBJ
tainable at the time this is writ
ten. During December, it seems
inevitable that still larger num-
Der of workers will be divorced
from payrolls, and forced to look
for non-existent jobs; to subsist
for a time on savings, which in
the great majority of instances
are pitifulIy small. 7 and finally to
seek relief or charity. The Christ
mas buying period, with its accel-
Grafton in retail trade, will keep
the unemployment rolls from
growing on a big scale this month
in all probability, but the full eff
fects wili be felt in January.
Loss of employment has not &C.
CURED evenly in all industries.
According to u. S. News survey,
the personal service industries.
