WTASHINGTON.-With every
" body hoping and praying
hat the country is about to
move upward from the depreS-
sion'S bottom, economists and
;tatisticians have gathered in
enough facts and figures to permit
hem to present fairly plausible
and well-connected analysis Of
factors making for the present
inertia.
There is no assurance that such
4 diagnosis will be helpful in
warding off economic depreSSions
If the future. But you never can
tell.
Lauchlin Currie, assistant direc-
tor of research and statistics for
the Federal Reserve System,
whose business figures are widely
used in industry and government
recently summed up his conclu-
SionS in j confidential survey
Currie groups essential depreS-
sion factors roughly as follows:
NATIONAL INCOME: From
" 1888 to 1886 forces tending
to increase thes national income
were ascendant. Government kept
adding to buying power more than
it took in taxes. National income
increased from less than 40 billion
dollars in 1888 to Ga billions in
1886.
PRICES: England'S rearmament
inspired speculation in certain raw
materials and inspired initiation
airy sentiment In a quick transit
ton period, labor won substantial
wage and hour concessions. A
sellers market resulted from an
ticipation of rising prices and fear
of interruptions by strikes. In
dustrieS passed on higher costs in
higher prices and some encour-
aged excessive forward buying by
announcing price increases effec-
i've on future dates.

GOOD RAISING

One of the finest lessons in real Amercansm
that we've heard about lately taught by Eu-
gene w. Casey, 32-year-old negro cab driver.
Recently he was sick and in the hospital and his
family received $49.10 in city relief. The other
day Eugene Casey wrote this letter to the City
Treasurer: ... 1859,
Dear Sr:-Just to let you know me and my
wife have no further need for the relief as am
putting my cab the street. and would like to be
cut off will. Please, sir, tell me how |
can repay back. Thank you much sincerely.
Eugene w. Casey, Cora l.. Casey"
A man who wants to 'repay back" his relief
money is unusual enough, so that the newspapers
sent reporters to ask Eugene Casey why. He told
them:

Carolina. It's the way Pm raisn' my kid."-New

HENDERSON COUNTY CENTENNIAL

Celebration Of the one hundredth ami
yerSary Of Henderson county draws near.
The celebration is scheduled to begin on
the last day of the present month. Much
work remains to be done in preparation
for the event The purpose of this article
is TO direct the attention of the people of
the county to certain salient facts which
should be immediately given consideration
and which demand instant action.
First, the celebration is a countrywide
event. 1t is the centennial of Henderson
county, not of Hendersonville. The people
Of the county town have taken the lead in
preparing for the event and will bear the
greater part of the weight Of preparation
and carrying through the program, but it
is the sincere desire of the tOwnspeople to
have the hearty cooperation and assist
ance of the people of Henderson county
outside HendersOnville.
The celebration is the celebration of all
the people of Henderson county. 1t is
sponsored by county and city officials and
by leaders representing the entire popula-
ZION Ol the equity. lie lHIclCot ASlP
of all the people is desired.
In preparation for the event a large part
of the celebration program has been ar
ranged. Parts which are incomplete are
among the most spectacular and difficult
to handle One of these is the historical
street parade, which is intended to pre-
sent in so far as possible the history of a
hundred years in the county. Valuable as
'sistance can be rendered in this connection
probably by hundreds of people Of the
county.
Citizens who can and will aid the COM
mittee in charge of this event are urged to
act at once and notify Mayor Edwards,
Otis Powers or Nathan Patla of this COM
,mittee. Communication should be estab-
'lished with this committee by any persons
having certain antiques or ancient articles,
tools, machinery or other objects which
will aid the committee in presenting a
view Of the progress of the county from
pioneer days to the present.
Antiques and relics are desired for a
museum display during the celebration
and citizens desiring to cooperate IN TINS
display are also requested to act promptly
by communicating with the gentlemen of
the committee named.
Other citizens who have offers of assist
ance or suggestions are urged to see or
telephone Mrs. Charles R. Whitaker. The
phone number is 463.
The Times-News is pleased to contribute
this editorial space today to the cause of
the centennial celebration. We conclude
by saying that this event is of too much
importance to be lightly passed over or
ignored by any of our people. We urge all
to manifest interest in the event and to
promptly evidence this interest to the CEN
.tennial committee by volunteering for
work on the big job of preparation and
carrying the project to success.

BEES AND TERMITES

Man sings the praises Of the in
dustrious bee for the reason that
the bee makes product that man
likes and can appropriate. The
termitc is as Industrious as the
bee, but nobody is heard saying
a good word for it.
Yet the tcrmitc does have his
valuable place in the affairs Of
this world. His job is to return

TIN CAN COOK HURT

SAN RAFAEL, Cal. (UP).-
When the nation begins to live
entirely on canned goods, as
sometimes is predicted, it may be
necessary to give husbands in
structions even in the simple art
of serving canned goods. In the
absence of his wife, Wesley j.
LaVigne put a can of .tamales in
water to boil. The water soon
boiled away. fand just as LaVigne
rushed to rescue the tamales the
can exploded. He went to ,hos-
pital.

THE MAYORS PROBLEMS:

THE MAYORS PROBLEMS:
The duties of the mayor and his
power, officially and personally,
receive lots Of attention, ranging
from growing BOOSTERS to rcgula-
ton of the town clock.
Most anonymous cOmmunlca-
tons to public officials have Il
nasty turn to them, but here's one
that was distinctly different and
quite refreshing with It's compll-
mcnt:
Dear Sir:
again / find occasion to
write you.
May | call your attention to
the fact that the town clock is
five minutes slow. according
to Eastern Standard Time.
"Thanking you for your
prompt attention to my prcvi-
Gus corrcspondenccS, am.
"ReSpectfullv yours.
IAN OBSERVER"
Quite courteous but since May
or Edwards doesn't know the ma
ture of "ObServcr'S" ''prcViOus
correspondence" there's danger Of
getting it confused with some Of
the communications that come
through the mail by anonymous
writers.
The clock presumably belongs
to the owners of the building and
its regulation is governed by the
manufacturers technicians. but
we believe this card to the mayor
will result in its being fixed with
in few days.
NEW SERVICE: New situations
call for new creations in service
and otherwise, the latest being a
guide and chauffeur service" for
those who want to ride in their
cars but want some experienced
person to drive them to the places
Of interest and let them linger
and look to their hearts desire.
Such services have been rendered
by individuals but not as a per
mancmt feature Of business
which the Mountain Tours COM
pany is providing.
DEATH DAY: Looks like we
might have to abolish the Fourth
Of July in order to protect man
kind against the awful death toll
in connection with its observance.
