MORALE. BREAKING DOWN

1t is exceedingly difficult to present fair appraisal
of ndustys condition these days There many
fctng factors, many diverse Influences that it is next
to impossible to the ordinary barometers in measuring
actual achievements and failures.
One school of business commentators takes it for
granted that continued prosperity assured and gives the
credit to the New Deal Another school extremely anti
New Deal and discounts advances that have been made
The third school attemps the difficult job of anayzng
conditions without bias preuice and such
matters this school probably nearest to being right
Mr. Roosevelts second inaugural has naturally caused
comparisons between conditions they were when he took
office IL 1888 and conditions they today And the
picture in the view of commentators is mixed
and bewildering
The United States News recently made neat summing
up OF Administration assets and credits they apply to
industry In the first four years of the present Admin
straton industrial production made remarkable advances
Some industries exceeded their boom-period ex-
perience and operating production levels The
national income has been increased SO per cenfrom S4O
100000 900 to $780, 100000 The agricultural income
IS approXmatng It's redepression ratio to the total ma
tlonal income Commodity prcies far from the
I923-25 normal Bank deposits have advanced more than
so per cent-from $40 900 900 to S62 900 OOO-
OOO
All this the credit side On the debit side are
number of vital problems which have not yet been solved
Unemployment still hovers around the 5000 900 mark-at
the peak in 1888 it touched estimated Is 600 900 In
spite of better business increased consumer income and
spending relief expenditures practically as great as
ever The Federal debt is at ame record figure and
the budget yet unbalanced Taxes on indusrv-as
well as on lndividuals-area at record levels
So as the Administration enters its second term It can
look back with satisfaction various achievements made
during It's first four yearsbut it must also look ahead TO
ISSUES and conditions that undecided and that are as
serious now as they were in the worst of the slump

A review of the 1886 activities of
the Farm Credit Administration in
this district showed a continued
decrease in the necessity for re-
financing of farm mortgage loans
by the Federal Land Bank and the
Land Bank Commissioner. On the
other hand a pronounced increase
is reported in the field of seasonal
operating loans to farmers and
livestock men through production
credit associations. This growth
reacts in the same direction with
the Federal intermediate Credit
Bank which furnishes the fuands
for this type of financing on a dis
count basis.

the virus was neutralized when mixed

While these experiments were en-
couraging and valuable, they did not
offer hope of development of an agent
that would afford permanent i'm

THERE is no hesitation in her reply.
No, I'd rather do it that way"
she says, and it is Immediately evident
thai this is one of the facts that she
has faced and thought through to
definite conclusion. Some people
need companionship when they are
on a job-others don't. I'm one of
those who work best alone And I
happen also to be one Of those pilots
who don't like the responsibility of
another persons safety to think about
That would be a strain that would
build into fatigue that might do
damage When I'm by myself I am
so busy just running the ship, watch
ing my instruments, keeping abreast
of my calculations, that never think
about loneliness. And, in the remote
possibility that anything did go wrong,
I don't have to think that if I had
acted differently, another person
might have avoided injury.
AS far as the distance involved is
concerned" she continued, Il have
divided that into a comparison Of so
many times across the United States
I have flown our own continent three
times this year. and now, when I'm
flying on this trip, l can sit back and
say, Well, this is only as far as it is

or this stretch is just what I would
do if I we're taking off from Los
