POPE Plus VOICES "AFFEC-

Rome, Nov, (CNA)-The Vatican's
drive to win recruits for the Catholic
Church among Negroes was empha-
sized this week in an encyclical letter
by Pope Plus XII to the American
Catholic hierarchy in which the Pontiff
expressed a "specal paternal affection,
which is certainly inspired of heaven,
for the Negro people dwelling among
you."
The Pope's reference to American
Negroes was made in connection with
his praise of the missionary zeal of
American Catholics. 1t included no
condemnation of lynching and jim
crow discrimination, of which latter
many Catholic institutions in the
United States are guilty.
That the omission was not moticated
by reluctance to interfere" in Ameri-
AN affairs, was shown by the Pontiff's
complaint that religion was not taught
in American schools.

Disadvantages Seen
In Tax 10 Spur
Profit Sharing
PIon Would Magnify
Peaks and Lows,
Analysis Holds
Special Dispatch to the Star.

NEW YORK. Jan. 14-It is ap-
parent that any plan of profit-shar-
ing which calls for a direct tieup of
the employees income to the en-
ployers profits must necessarily
tend to magnify both periods of
prosperity and periods of depres-
sion, making for greater instability
than ever. observes the Standard
Statistics Co. in a current analysis
of proposed congressional legisla-
ton which would provide tax bene-
fits to those employers who adopt
plans for sharing profits with their
employees.
Proponents of profit sharing have
stirred up considerable support for
such incentive taxation, but it is well
to remember that there are inherent
disadvantages as we'll First of all,
a large proportion of companies
would be unable to establish plans
because of lack of profits. Even with
adequate profits, however, there are
serious objections to the use of this
device.
For example, profit sharing would
tend to accentuate the intensity of
business cycles by adding to the pur-
chasing power of workers in times
of prosperity, thereby heightening
the peaks of swings. Conversely,
when recession developed worker
incomes would be reduced by the
loss of the profit-sharing payments,
as we'll as lower wage income, there
by deepening the lows of the cycles.
Furthermore, the orthodox policy
is for business to accumulate re-
serves during prosperous periods,
which enable it to cushion declines
by delaying layoffs and wage reduc-
tions as far as practicable. Many
companies, employing so-called
White-collar workers either pre-
dominantly or exclusively, neither
lay off these workers nor reduce
salaries at all during adverse times.
1t would be difficult and perhaps
impossible to provide this support
if profits were dissipated under a
profit-sharing plan.
The highly cyclical industries
those which are very sensitive to
changes in the tempo of general
buslness-would be especially hard
hit by forced profit sharing 1t is
within the bounds of reasonableness
to assume that every major steel
producer in existence in 1929 would
have been forced into bankruptcy
by 1888 were it not for the fact that
they were able to withstand the
huge losses CT the depression by rea-
son of past accumulated surpluses.

Activity Index Hits
New Peak Due 10
Construction Squirt
Moderate Recession
Until Early March
Still Predicted
Special Dispatch to The Star.

NEW YORK, Jan. lathe week
ly index of business activity, led by
a squirt in the series for heavy en-
gineering contracts, has jumped to
new high. fractionally above that
of last November. according to Bus
mess Week today. This type of
movement is in line with the fore
cast for the first half of 1899
that a new post-l937 peak will
be reached in the index as re-
suit of the public works program
The expectation, however, has been
that before this occurs a delayed
seasonal recession in steel automo-
biles and textiles would result in
temporary and moderate recession,
lasting perhaps until early March
This immediate forecast is still
maintained.
One of the big question marks of
1889 is the extent to which the
great. increase in bank reserves,
which occurred during 1888, will
affect either business activity or
prices. During the last year the
Nations monetary gold stock, main
ly as result of imports but partly
due to domestic mining, increased
from its all-time high of $12,760,-
100000 to a new all-time high of
SASH 100000 Corresponding to
this S1.751 100000 increase there was
a s1,748,0OO,000 increase in the re-
serves of member banks of the Fed
eral Reserve System. A few off
setting items Cancelled out; on the
whole the gold imports were trans
formed into bank reserves.
Further Gain Likely.
The prospect for the next two
months is for continued increase
in reserves. In the first place, the
steady inflow of gold is likely to
continue, perhaps at the average
rate of $150,000,0O0 monthly. In
the second place, possibly another
S1O0,000,000 in currency is due to
return to the banks from circula-
ton.
Finally, the Federal deficit for
the next two months will probably
run in the neighborhood of $780,
100000. Part of this deficit will
doubtless be financed by Treas
ury checks on its balances at the
member banks rather than on it's
ordinary bank balance, which is at
the Federal Reserve banks.
Money paid out from the Federal
Reserve balance, when redeposited
by recipients of Treasury checks,
increases member bank reserves,
whereas money drawn from the
member banks and then redeposited
of course does not do so.
If half of the deficit is financed
each way the total addition to re-
serves before the March Is financ-
ing and income tax date might be
$780, 100000 in gold, $10O,O0O,00O in
currency and $375,000,OO0 in Gov
eminent checks.
Price Effects Slight.
Part of this increase will have
to be held in reserve against the
new deposits resulting from the
same transactions; the rest will go
into excess reserves. AS a rough
guess, therefore, excess reserves may
rise from their present So, 300 O0O, 900
to March peak of $4,0OO,000, 900.
What effect will thus further ex-
pansion of the already gigantic
credit base have on the economy?
Easy money will be maintained and

with it the level of bond prices.
But the effects on business and
prices may be wearing thin, for
astronomical figures merely daze
rather than inspire or frighten.
While the credit base will very
likely prove useful as a support
to expanding business activity, and
while it may some day result in
the upward explosion of prices that
has been feared for so many years,
the possibility must be kept in
mind that its influence on business
after this spring may be like that
OF the mountain which brought
