strong influence on business Senti-
ment and the course of trade in the
last few years that they cannot BE
excluded from any speculation re-

While most competent observers

believe that there is nothing of

Even though considerable recovery
should occur during the coming year,
several problems will still remain that
must be solved before business may
regard the longer-term future with as
surance. Perhaps foremost among
these is the need for the adoption of
8 long-range plan of relief expendi-
lures at times of economic stress, as
oontrasted with the spasmodic, waste
full, and poorly planned disbursements
in the past. Along the same line some
definite plan for balancing the budget
is needed, such as broadening the tax
base and reducing expenditures. When
q balance is achieved and conditions
warrant, it is essential that syste-
matte program be adopted for reduc-
ing the huge public debt.

ed to expand largely because of loss
of confidence. To the extent that this
development was based on the belief
that production was surprising the
level capable of absorption by thecur-
rent level of demand, the recession
may be regarded as cyclical Or nor
mall in character. However, there can
be no doubt that several other factors
exerted strong influence on the down
ward course of business. In fact, the
confidence of many business men be-
gan to ebb as early as February when
the growth of labor disturbances made
the outlook for uninterrupted opera
tons highly uncertain.

count for the sudden appearance and
rapid growth of the recession. One of
the causes frequently cited is the eff
fects of the Governments credit poll
cies, which, it is held, frightened credit
to an extent that made it necessary
for the banks to secure funds by sell
ing government securities. The fact
that the sale of these securities by
reporting member banks during this
year exceeded the increase in loans
by about half a billion dollars and
that excess reserves now aggregate
more than a billion dollars indicates
that member banks have been iqui-
dating Government securities for rea-
sons other than a need for additional
funds.

In respect to labor, there is an ur-

Industrial problems that will enable
the government, business men, and
labor to consider their differences in
a spirit of cooperation. Underlying
the foregoing and other problems is
the danger in the political philosophy
that man-made doctrines can bring
greater good to the people of the ma
ton than the operation of natural
economic laws.
