The Importance in this change Of

which may be expected to flow from

even a person unfamiliar with poll

that he is not going to run again.

Various Theories as 10
" hat Caused Depression

It is very popular, among anna
teur economists and political alibi
seekers, to blame the depression
that started with the crash Of Oc-
tober, 1929, on the war It is often
alleged llIat ttaig terrible tteFnath
Of the war engulfed the whole world,
and that nothing the United States
could. have done would have averted
it.
Another school Of economists
blame what happened on the crazy
wave Of speculation in stocks, the
pyramiding Of Prices until a crash
was inevitable, and that the crash
inevitably worked the depression.
But another theory is being
evolved,by some Of the COMPRESSION
al opponents Of further loans to Lat
in America. Which is that the chief
cause for the crash and the depres-
sion that followed was nothing ex-
cept the fact that the United States
had gone hog-wild loaning its good
money not only IN Europe, but ID
Latin America, to grand total oil

County Property TO be Sold at
Public Auction

Your report says. Again we find
claim No 2480l for truck. al
lowing 5000 for another truck turned
in. Section 1869 provides that any
property of the county whose value
IS in excess Of $500 must be sold at
public auction :
That statement OF the meaning of
section 1869 is not correct. That
section provides the board of county
commissioners has the power to sell
any property. real or personal, how
ever acquired. belonging 10 the
county, and which is not necessary
TO the county's business or the pres
ervation of its property" The
traded in trucks were necessary to
the county's business and therefore
do not come under section 4465. 9
and could be traded for property
more necessary. The commissioners
have been following and will con-
tinue to follow the advice of the
attorney general. The attorney GEN
eral IN his opinion of November 10.
1887, said
Section 1869 only permits
i tlls equity " Still that property
which they do not need. The
county needs the old truck. If
an exchange of the old truck for
new truck meant a sale. then
Your county couldn't sell or ex-
change the old truck. The dis
posal of the old truck for new
truck is technically not a sale
{see Section 758D, it is an ex-
change (Section 1882"
The attention of the other county
officers has been called by the coun-
ty attorney to the minor criticisms
of their offices and suggestions in
your report. and they have advised
him that your suggestions in the
particulars mentioned in your report
as to their offices will be followed.
