greatest contributions that can be made to recovery. If anyone is Wor- rying about the insurance compan- ies and savings bank holders of railroad bonds, that situation can be safeguarded by government guarantee of insurance companies not of their investments but of their ability to meet all obligations. But this danger is terribly over-rated.
 Utilities also call for great ex- pansion. I urge the following: (a) Prompt agreement of the utilities and SEC on program of holding company adjustments within the act. Here the utilities must do the yielding. (b) Prompt agreement by the government on limitations on IVA power loans. Here the gov- ernment must do the yielding. favor government ownership of utilities. But it is idle to talk of that now.
 As to industrial expansion, that is strictly up to industry. But here again the financial community which finances industry must yield and announce its intention of &C., cepting the Securities Act of 1883 and the Stock Exchange Act of 1924 ac facts.
 New industries do not arise in large scale production, but in small scale beginnings. There is not much the government can do about this. If it wants to go into the banking business, here is good spot.
 The construction industry is hopelessly hog-tied by high prices, high wages, bad practices. There should be ruthless suppression of contractor and material men com binations which honey-comb t he trade. There should be ruthless suppression of labor racketeers. The government should act to bring about readjustment of wage schedules. Otherwise all protection for labor should be withdrawn from this field.
 AS to the capital gains taxes and the undivided profits taxes, busi- ness certainly cannot complain that the schedules just adopted will hamstring business.
 Beyond all this there is not much the government can do about in- veStment. But it should keep out of the banking field if it merely plans to take excessively risky loans which no banker ought to be per- mitted to take.
 This brings us to spending. Pump priming should be stopped. The spending should be to take care of the appalling unemployment prob lem and for no other purpose. First, the unemployment insurance act should be revamped to give larger aid to lower wage groups and for longer periods. Then the govern ment should keep central control of other unemployment work. But it should be organized on a per- manent basis, with projects always worked out and ready, and an en- ployment policy at moderate wage based on continuous employment standards. Under no circumstances should he wage scale of the build- ing tradese be permitted to intrude into unemployment work. There should be an efficient unemploy- ment service in connection with this and no unemployment work for those who can be placed in other jobs. After this comes relief. This should be handled locally as at present.

mously to the spending load.
 The government should go with vigor and energy and vision into a vast low cost housing program on sound lines, limiting its con- struction to dwelling units costing less than $3OoO, built by men hired at an annual wage, in no case the wage of the A. F. of L. building trades.
 The funds for these unemploy- ment projects, should be obtained by taxes except where the project is capable of carrying its own debt service, such as low cost houses. If any part of the housing projects must be written off as subsidies, then that part should be raised by taxes.
 The government should spend, but it should aim at a balanced budget. A small deficit of two bil- lion over a period of two years may be necessary because of the bad

situation into which we have drifted. But no more than that.
 The financing of government ex- penses by old-age pension taxes should be stopped at once as vic- ious economically and immoral every other way.
 All sales and commodity taxes should be abandoned save upon in- dustries which entail government services and special expenditures, as in the case of gasoline taxes. The whole federal tax system should be on an income tax basis, with everybody paying taxes-the taxes on all incomes under $10000, down as low as $1,000, should be raised.
 I hesitate to say anything about the farm. That subject is SO en- crusted with bad history and emo- tional nonsense that to talk sense about the farm is to get nowhere. But I believe farm coddling must taught and required under penalty of personal disaster to help them- oSlNCo ny CltdClilS OIl IIlclI ldIlIlS dS large a part of essential natural in- come as possible.
 As for labor, business on it's side must understand that collective bargaining and untrammelled la Dor unions are here to stay. Labor must understand that it must de- pend on it's own economic power and that to expect too much from the government is to invite in the end compulsory arbitration. Ger tainly the whole approach of the NLRB must be re-examined. But it is most important that business must understand that it is begin ner itself at the technique of col- lective bargaining and that it must put down some of the labor failures to its own ineptness as we'll as to the failure of labor leadership.
 Many other things could be done of course. But these are the heart of any program which can start the nation off upon a flight of four or five years of better times,

WATER COLORS

Colors splashing at twilight
 AS the boat sails on her way; Shadows and opalescence
 The end of enchanted day. Purple and rose and fiery red Dance around the waters bed Darting lights from starry eyes, Visions of color overhead. Deep glowing mist and fountains bright, White fieeced clouds flying by. Gulls and birds in heavens wind. Touching the blue of summers sky. The salty smell of churning foam Rolling and rocking men to sleep. Yellow flames from fleeing moon Lighting the caverns of the deep.

Afflicted with microscephaly, condition in which the brain, the skull or both stop growing, the child was faced with idiocy until surgeons opened the skull and wedged it apart to relieve pressure on the brain. It will be six months, according to the operating surgeon. before the success of the operation in cor recting microcephaly, can be de- termined.
