SLUMP CLASSIFIED
AS 1921 VARIETY
DR.. Moulton of Brookings Insti-
tuition Says None Can Tell
Extent.
Rs the Associated Press.

ES IHe ASSOCldteu fIeSS.
KANSAS CITY, Oct. 27.-Dr Harold
G. Moulton. president of the Brook
ings Institution of Washington, D. c.,
told the American Bakers Association
Convention here last night the Nation
is in the midst of a business recess
more closely resembling that of 1921
than the crash of 1929.
Whether the recession is likely to
be of major proportions, he said, was
a question to which mo one can give
a certain answer"
He listed the fact that this recess
sion has begun before rather than
after a great period of industrial ex-
pansion," the stimulating force" of
continued need for houses and dur
able goods, better than ordinary
maintenance of ultimate demand"
through high agricultural purchasing
power, high wages and continued re-
lief to those out of work" and reduc-
ton in raw material prices as dis
tinctly helpful" to manufacturers.
High wages DR.. Moulton listed on
the darker side, saying business men
will find them more than ordinarily
difficult to handle" On that side also
was listed the Government fiscal sit
uation which he predicted will "be-
come acute unless, perchance, the re-
cession is surmounted within a very
few months" and the international
crisis, both in its military and flnan-
cial aspect"
