you are living where men and women
before you have lived hard" OF her

the health you've got and 4 great deal
of hard work."
Questions asked Mrs. Roosevelt after
her lecture ranged from whether the
Duke and Duchess of Windsor would
stay in the White House in tie event
Of visit to Washington ("probably
not") to whether she believed the
country should arm for national de-
fense.
OF ornaments she said no other

WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.
Va, Oct. 2o.-With its new president
pledging himself to work in co-opera-

the capital markets, and q prominent
economist predicting an increasing de-
mand for capital to finance higher
standards Of living, the Investment
Bankers Association Of America con-
cluded its tour-day annual convention
today.
Jean G. Witter, youthful appearing
4e-year-old Californian, in an address
prepared for his induction into the

Our No. job Is to revive the in
vestment banking business, not alone
for the benefit Of US in the business
but for the benefit OF every one in the
country-the workingman, the farm
er, the businessman and the man on
relief. New financing Is the fore

Standards Believed Increasing.
DR.. Marcus Nader, professor of
finance at New York University and
. wel-known economist, after outlin-
ing many Of the difficulties facing the
investment business said in an address
prepared for the days session that he
was not pessimistic, explaining:
Il am convinced that the standard
of living in the United States is bound
to increase and this implies the in
PRODUCTION of new machinery, Of new
labor-saving devices, which means the
flotation of new securities by corpora
tions.
An analysis of the present economic
situation in the United States reveals
that the possibilities for investment
banking In the country are as great
as ever. Obsolescence Of industrial
plant and equipment Is widespread in
spite Of the progress that has been
made in the past few years" He
thought the public utilities were bound
to expand" and sooner or later the
railways would have to make large
outlays for equipment.
DR.. Nader said while the Govern
ment had been making big inroads
into the investment market in financ-
ing its deficit, its revenues would in
crease with business recovery, and
when the Government ceased to sup
ply the demand for securities, "the
demand for other securities will imme-
diately increase"

 The primary election races are in the home stretch. With showdown definitely sought in Georgia, Sep- tember 6, in the George vs Camp contest, with an inferential presi- dential slap on record against Cot ton Ed" Smith in South Carolina, and with presidential influences ex- pected to register in the Maryland and New York races the eyes of the country are on the Democratic purge"
 How has it fared to date?
 In many states, lines were not clearly drawn between the presiden- tial wish to elect progressive Demo- crats who will support his program, as against independent or conserva- tive Democrats. In many the results were so divided as to leave them in- conclusive. In some, issues were so purely local that no national aspect figured strongly.
 HERE'S
 BOX SCORE
 NEVERTHELESS the struggle is absorbing to all political analysts, and the accompanying photograph shows what has happened thus far:
 OREGON: Henry L. Hess won the nomination for governor over Charles R. Martin, incumbent. Hess had support of both organized labor groups Martin was repudiated by Secretary Ickes, White House Secre- tary Early, and Senator Norris.
 IDAHO: Representative D. Worth Clark, campaigning as an avowed conservative Democrat, beat Senator James P. Pope, 400 per cent New Deal" incumbent, who had had pleasant mods from Postmaster General Farley and Secretary Hull.
 MONTANA: Representative Jer- ry O'Connell, New Dealer, beat an opponent sponsored by Senator Bur- ton K. Wheeler, who is feuding with the New Deal.
 MINNESOTA: Progressive Cover nor Elmer Benson renominated over Hjalmar Pederson who would have been far less close to the New Deal.
 IOWA: Otha Wearin, with the blessing of Harry Hopkins and other New Dealers, badly beaten for sen- ate nomination by incumbent Sen- ator Guy Gillette, who had opposed the Supreme Court reorganization plan.
