As An Expert Sees The Future

Col Leonard Ayres, Of the Cleveland Trust Com
pany, is perhaps the most widely known of American
economists His annual forecast and review of the
economic situation is regarded with respect every
where because of the accuracy with which he has
been able to predict the trend of events.
In his forecast for 1887 Col Ayres points out that
in many ways economic recovery is still far from
complete The volumes of new public utility construc
tion, new factory building, commercial building
railroad equipment and new corporate financ-
ing all below those of the lowest year of the de-
preston of 1921 We have still long way to climb to
get back to conditions formerly considered normal
Col Ayres emphasizes the point that business has
become more dependent upon politics than ever be-
fore We are moving toward system of managed
economics, which he describes as one in which the
government undertakes to control the fundamental
conditions under which business operates. This is
something so new in American experience that
have not yet got used to it, But Col Ayres predicts
that we shall be living under such system for many
years to come. - ~~~ s-~- ~~~.: : i. .-~~
The November election was a sweeping indorse
ment of managed economics, and an expression of
simple faith that government not only overcome
depressions but prevent them.
That faith will last Col Ayres remarks, for the
duration Of prosperity. But if prosperity develops in
to business boom it is doomed to be followed by
other depression

Stock Feeding An Art

Scientific feeding of livestock has added material
y to the cash return of farmers, according to agri
cultural experts.
In former days, before development of the splendid
facilities of government and private experiment sta
tions there was direct substantial annual loss
through indscriminate and uninforned feeding. AS
typical example, many farmers fed whole soybeans
to hogs causing what is known "soft pork and
because of the resulting inferior product, packers
sometimes were compelled to avoid an entire district
IN which som whole soybeans were being fed
Wise educational work by the department Of agri-
culture and the experiment stations largely corrected
this error and at the same time drove home forciby
the value Of soybean olmeal in the feeding of hogs
dairy COWS, beef CATTLE sheep and poultry
Government bulletins pointed out that the oilmeal
was highly nutritious, a well-balanced vegetable
protein, easily digestibe and has very desirable
physical effect all animals" Farmers were ad-
vised that "as the properties of soybean omeal
becoming better known it is growing in popularity
as ingredient of mixed feeds" State experiment
stations likewise stressed the Importance of this pro-
tein ingredient with the result that consumption has
been steadily increasing.
This is but one instance where judicious effort on
the part of the government agencies has lighted the
way for the farmer in scientific feeding and has sent
new profits into his pockets The art of proper live
stock feeding is steadily taking new Importance.

French Voters Need
 Non-Partisan Group
Temporary President, W. L. Cambigue Again Assails Political Termites' Explains Organizations Plans

ganization have been in the minds of French voters of the city for some time, said Mir. Cambigue, but cir cumstances have been against any action. The movement, he says, was inevitable.
 Good WHIP
 sincere and legitimate efforts have been made by both major local parties to cultivate the goodwill of the French people, says MT. Cam bigue, but mo appreciable improve ment materialized."
 Political termites," he charges, have been at work and have done great harm. The non-partisan movement, he claims, was the result of a desire to "repulse the forces which have been working against our best interests"
 Mir. Cambigue also says in his statement:
 The indiiduals who so grossly mis- represent our race do more harm than actually appears on the surface. In official politics, the French peo- pie are judged through them and vice-versa: thus creating an impos.. sible situation which tends to keep the French people away from active politics altogether.
 Not Mercenary
 An active non-partisan club is not necessarily rnercenary organization the French people are not in the habit of peddling their political wares; 1t could do an immense amount of constructive work in the line of making new American citi- zens, new voters, encourage and as- sist the people to exercise their fran chise and render a number of val- uable services which our people are now deprived of because of the lack of an efficient political organiza- tion. In extenuation for the organ ization of which I am the titular head, and my political affiliates, I must point out that through no faults of our own we are deprived of the requisites for well function ing partisan organization.
 do not expect that anyone will be ostracized by my party off ad- vocating an organization which may benefit the French people-consist- ent with good government.
