BEHIND The

NEW YORk-wail Street rank
and-file opinion has been as blue
lately as 1t was bullish in the first
week of the new year. The slide
off In stocks and the growing re-
alization that heavy industry is
headed for drop in operations In
the next few months have had
very depressing effect.
Level-headed insiders agree that
some recession from present levels
Is to be expected. both in indus
trial activity and the stock mar
ket. But they see no reason for
undue pessimism. There ia no
parallel between today's condi-
tions and those which prevailed
before the crashes of 1929 and
1887.
Both commercial and specula-
tive borrowings are nominal. not
excessive. There are millions of
dollars of idle capital in bank de-
posits and brokerage accounts.
Business inventories are in good
shape generally. Consumers
goods industries are holding up
well. No credit crisis is in sight.
Underlying economic factors point
towards gratifying recovery
movement later in the year. So
small shareholders in sound COM
panies should not be alarmed II
market quotations are weak for
while. Retention of investment
stocks on long-range basis APP
pears fully justified.

NO INQUEST IN
PALMER DEATH
THIS MONTH

Doubt was expressed Tuesday by
Coroner T. H. Long that an inquest
would be held in connection with
the death Of Charles r. Palmer, %
year-old Spanaway WPA worker,
who was fatally injured early Sun
day when he was struck down by
a car driven by Tom Marcus, rs,
OF Route 2. Box rs. Olympia.
Indications thus far, said DR..
Long, ARE that the accident was
unavoidable. Unless something else
develops, there will be no inquest"
Palmer was walking along the
Mountain highway, near entrance
to Spanaway park, when he was
hit by the Marcus machine.
Marcus, after taking the man to
Pierce County hospital. where he
expired, told sheriff's deputies 1t
was impossible to avoid striking
Palmer because of an oncoming
car on the narrow pavement.
