ANDRE DERA1N 1885, }, the great ex-
perimentalist Of today, served seven years in the
French army, four of which were in the World
War. During this time, he did not paint 4 single
picture. When he returned to painting, the rest
lessness of the war years found its way into his
work. You never knew what the next picture
would Be like. He turned from Classicism to
Cubism to Imprsssionism and hack to CLASH
ism. This landscape shows how he has gotten
away from the naturslistic representation.
Since the perfection Of the eamsrs, It is not nee
sssary to paint in Photographic manner. The
tendency is to paint in . highly personal and
imaginative way, to rearrange the shapes Of
objects, to alter the color Of things, to produce
a new harmony. That is called modern art".

FRAGONARD (17s21s06), the renowned
court painter to Louis XIV, was kept busy paint
ing voluptuous scenes Of love and seduction.
Madame du Barry set the fashion for the whole
pleasure-loving court by decorating her boudoir
with his paintings. He began his career as a law
clerk, but his genius for art brought him to the
studio of Francois Boucher in Paris. He sur
passed his master. When the people Of France
rose against the profigate monarchy, they in
cluded the court painter Fragonard, and he was
forced to return to Grasse, his home. There he
turned to simpler subject matter. The "Girl
With Marmot" was probably painted during
this period. This simplicity and his rich tender
color, altogether his own, form his special con-
tribution to French painting and make him =
vital figure even today. He was poor and forgot

may think, it is significant that most
foreign economists, who watch and
study the American situation, agree
with him.
1t is obvious, however, that the con-
| tinuatiOn of an unbalanced budget in
| the midst Of mounting recovery rep
| resents a real menace. 1t has infla-
tionary tendencies of serious sort.
| There has never been, in my belief,
any reason to fear a currency infla-
ton, but there is certainly reason to
fear a too-eXtensive credit imitation,
If we continue to have an unbalanced
budget with production going full
tilt.
The President, we are told, is bring
ing energetic pressure on the depart
ment heads to keep below their budget
estimates. He has locked up S400,-
100000 OF department budget funds
in reserve accounts and will refuse to
release them except with the appro-
val Of the Bureau of the Budget. And
he can be counted on to frown upon
further emergency expenditures. His
attitude is a reason for optimism, and
1t is further supported by the fact
that gold deliveries to this country
appear to be decreasing, and that long
term bond issues and income from
social security funds are beginning to
replace the short-term bank loans.
Just the same, the current deficit is
more than half what the deficit for the
whole year-ending next July WAS
estimated to be. Spring tax collec-
tlons may take a powerful leap, but
they will certainly have to, If We are
to come out anywhere near even.
The Governments Role.
1t Is unfortunate that administra-
ton leaders have not devoted more
of their talent for publicity to edu-
eating the public to the real implica-
tions of the elastic budget.
In contradiction to the theory that
the budget Of nation is like that
OF a household, which has to be
balanced annually, the present ad-
mlnstration has gone on the thesis
that it resembles, rather, the budget
OF great industry, which must
balance, not annually, but over the
business cycle. In times of depres-
sion, when private investment be-
comes cautious or nearly stops alto
gether, it is the business of govern
ment to start the cycle upward again
by spending its money, and it is iusti-
fec in radically unbalancing the budget
II necessary in order to do so. There
are many economists who believe that
with sufficient budgetary elasticity
the peaks and valleys of depressions
can be ironed out and such depres-
sions as the recent one prevented
altogether by automatic government
action, taken much more expeditiously
than was the last. If, for instance
indexes show that unemployment has
passed point which may be con-
sldered as normal-transitional un-

employment Of men passing from one
job to another - the Government
should Immediately, they think, be-
gin starting public works, which have
been planned carefully In advance
and kept on the program for just such
emergencies. Thus wholesale slumps
can be prevented.
But no economist believes that a
national budget can indefinitely be
kept out of balance without catas-
trophe. When private production and
national income have begun to ap-
proximate normal the Government
budget must be contracted and re-
serves must be laid up against the
next def1ationary period. This is the
logic Of an elastic budget, and the
people have not been educated to the
theory. On the contrary, Legislatures
are inclined to think that if income
is expanding the Government ought
to be able to expand its expenditures,
too. II we could afford billions when
the Nation was poor, why not even
more when the Nation is rich? This
was, however, the logic of private
capital in 1929-the logic Of Mr..
Mellon, that there was no top to
American public to the fallacy of
that theory applied to private invest
ment and expansion, but it hasn't edu-
Gated it yet to recognize the same
fallacy in public investment, expan-
sion and spending.
Checking Up on Employment
Furthermore, certain indexes which
are essential to our knowledge of where
We really stand have been knocked out
by the relief policy. Normally, the
amount of unemployment is a fairly
reliable index to the general economic
situation Of the country. But our un-,
employment figures are totally unre-
liable, because the policy of the relief
administration has been to define un-
employment as a certain inadequacy
in income, SO that undoubtedly tens
of thousands are counted as unem-
ployed who never were employed and
are social cases, useless for measur-
ing the extent of recovery. Unemploy-
ment insurance, once it is in operation,
will furnish fairly reliable and auto
matte index-but we have got to do
something meanwhile.
And, meanwhile, there is no let-up
in the pressure from groups of all
kinds, who have been encouraged TO
believe that a proyidential Govern
ment will augment their incomes by
one form Of subsidy or another.
Within the last few days the cot
ton farmers, who already are receiv-
ing several sorts of Government sub
sides-for soil conservation and, by
the extension of another year, of 312
per cent interest rates-have asked
and demanded loan for the purpose
OF holding and increasing the price Of
cotton, in the face of this years ex-
traordinary crop. But 1T is by no
means established that the loan is
necessary. II growers should receive
the present prices for the current crop
their gross income would be equal to
last years, which was considered sat-
isfactory. The greater quantity would
offset the increase in price. In other
words, what they are loking for-and
have been encouraged to expects a
guaranteed price rather than a fair
