INFINITE PAINS

ter; then for time or two the cup
would be leveled off. But shortly
the same old haphazardness would
be resumed. The girl could not, |
was convinced, keep her mind on
her work.
The foregoing exposition ex-
plains, | think, why there is so
much difficulty in getting things
done well-why, when you order
a soft-boiled egg or u hard-boiled
egg to be prepared by somebody
paid to prepare it, it will come to
you neither hard nor soft but
gooey, though an eye on the clock
would have insured perfection.
Some persons who are not pains
taking have, ] am sure, minds
which never could be trained to be
painstaking. Others who could be
trained or could train themselves,
fail to grasp the Importance of
taking pains; so they file CORE

white pergola and the concrete

If employees could but realize
how much the failure to take
pains costs them in low salaries,
loss of employment, and lack of
satisfaction and pleasure in their
work, they would set about earn

Some nations additionally
teach their people to take pains.

WASHINGTON - The admins
w tration's five billion dollar
public works program, in IFS func-
ton as something to I've used
quickly against any future depreS-
sion emergency, comes as relief
to many economists here who are
none too sure that the next de.
preston is a long way off.
Predominant administration pol
icy is now based on the gamble
that the upward swing in busi-
ness activity will continue for the
next two or three years. The
budget-balancing, Federal Re-
serve, taxation and relief phases
Of the policy all tie in with that
gamble.
Economists here differ in their
speculations and predictions, but
their charts and tables show that
if the present upturn continues
more than three or four months
longer it will break the previous
longevity records.
The two big previous upturns
were that of l86l-65 which lasted
IS months, and that of 1858,
which continued A months. War
figured in each instance. The
present steady rise in business ac-
tivity is now in its 48th. month.
RecordsLwhich Of course do not
govern the future-show that q
business expansion period usually
runs about one-seventh longer
than the preceding contraction
period, which in the l929-33 Pc
riod lasted for as months.
ROUGHLY speaking, admins
tration policymakers tend to
divide into two groups at this
time.
One is fiscal group which bets
on steadily increasing production,
bigger profits and rising federal
revenue.
The other group, including many
of, the more liberal New Deal
economists, believes that mass
purchasing power has been and
still is the. key to recovery, and

woman in a drugstore buying a

for publicity purposes. The clerk
put a scant piece of wrapping pa

the material sticking out at each

carrying the package wrapped that
way through the streets. So the

of the package, though the rest of
the wrapping was pure white. |
