Recovery 10 Depend
On Heavy Industry,
Sloan Declares
More Efficient Tools
Needed, Says Chief
Of General Motors
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 13.-Alfred
P. Sloan, jr., chairman of the Gen.
eral Motors Corp. presented today
formula for an economy Of
abundance" as follows:
More investment in better tools
to make new and useful things at
lower cost for sale at lower prices.
Americas production plant, he
told shareholders in a message, has
become largely obsolete" as result
of subnormal output of new equip
ment in recent years.
Even ignoring the accumulated
deficit in producers goods, Sloan
contended, a return to normal in
the heavy tool-making industries
would provide billions of dollars"
OF productivity and absorb a large
part of the unemployed.
''The probabilities of such an ex-
tensive recovery" he added, depend
upon the attitude of mind of the
constructive forces of the coun-
try toward the possibilities of profit
and the safety of the capital en-
ployed.
"They depend to a large degree
upon the attitude of Government as
evidenced by its national economic
policies, effecting as they do indus
trys opportunity to perform"
OF current business trends, Sloan
said the moderate decline so far this
year was to be expected after the
rapid expansion in the final half of
1888.
What the magnitude of the pres
ent recovery movement will be or
how long it will last, is impossible
to determine at this time,' he as
serted.

What Price Relief?

The house works progress ad-
ministration investigating commit
tee made public on July IL the
names of and monthly salaries of
w. P. A. administrative employees
in Virginia earning 500 per
month or more. Salaries ranged
from the minimum of 500 up to
$500, and the total administra-
tive monthly payroll is Virginia
amounted to the staggering total
of $35, O12.33, if our addition was
correct.
If this is to be taken as an
index of the amount spent in the
average state forty eight times
times this figure would give US
the huge sum Of $1,6S0,591.84,
and eyes begin to open to the
necessity of the administration
calling for such large appropria-
tons. 1t just boils down to the
fact that it takes several dollars
to spend a dollar and the day
laborer on the various projects
gets a very small percent of the
relief dollar.

Two Public Spirited
Citizens

We wish to bring to the atten-
ton of our readers two citizens
of the county who have done two
widely separated but constructive
pieces of public spirited work.
First, is Reverend Leo Lyle, a
God-fearing citizen, who has been
engaged in spreading the gospel
in Dickinson County for the past
few years. In addition to estab-
fishing a mission, organizing Sun
day Schools in widely scattered
sections, Rev. Lyle, with the help
Of his good wife and with contri-
buttons from citizens throughout
the county has established on the
Mouth of Georges Fork summer
camp for many of the under privi-
legged children of the county.
About fifty five children are in
attendance, and we feel sure that
this group of boys and girls will
develop in stature and grace with
God through the efforts of this
minister of the church.
To Mr.. E. A. Hyde we extend
our heartiest congratulations for
his untiring efforts in bringing to
Dickinson County the Barter
Players. This theatrical perform
ance is considered by us to be one
of the outstanding events in the
history of Clintwood and Dicken-
son County.
When Mr.. Hyde came forth
with the idea of having the Barter
Players appear in Clintwood many
of the citizens and members OF
civic organizations doubted the adj
visibility of such venture, point
ing out that it would not be a
financial success or prove to be OF
sufficient interest. But through the
insistence of Mr.. Hyde the event

Quarter Horse

A quarter horse is horse trained
to run a quarter of a mile from a
standing start. Such horses were
usually not thoroughbreds, but were
owned by farmers who raced them
at picnics or county fairs. One Of
these sturdy racers named Bob
Wade still holds the world official
record of 21A seconds for fur
longs.

II you want your guests to feel
perfectly at ease when you are serv-
