Noted Prognosticator Forecasts National And
World Events. Reviews 1910 Business Record.
Predicts All-Tme High Volume Soon

Babson Park, Mass, Dec. 81.
A question to discuss before
making a forecast for 1941 is:
will World War II continue
throughout the year," NY ans
wer is that it will surely continue
at least until the fall. For the
purpose of my forecast, this is
equivalent to the entire year of
1871.
Germany is storing up huge
quantities of arsenic to be used in
an attempt to destroy the crops of
Great Britain next summer or next
fall. If England is also storing
arsenic and succeeds in destroying
the crops of Germany, the War
may end next fall. It is evident
that both sides will attempt de-
struction by arsenic, fire or other
wise. l say this because the effect
of such a crop-killing campaign
would be more serious for Germany
than for England. England is de-
pendent to the extent of only $3.50
on her home crops, while Ger
many's dependence is 900. Ger
many, moreover, is unable to i'm
port except by robbing adjoining
nations, and hence, must conserve
all her own crops. People are not
frightened by bombs, as only one
person out of many thousands
suffers from them; but the fear of
starvation will throw a nation into
panic. Hence, statisticians believe
that the ending of the War in
favor of England depends upon the
success of the British Blockade
supplemented by the destruction of
German crops.
Let's Look At The Record
Let me say that 1941 should be
the best business year this country
has ever witnessed. Everything
from cradles to collins, including
dividends and pay envelopes, should
show fine gain over 1910. We
hear much bowling about taxes.
When you consider, however, that
the Excess Profits Tax on firms
with large invested capital does not

Obsolete Laws
To Be Repealed
At Md. Assembly
1941 Session Hears Recon-
mendations Of Tax Survey
Commission On Licenses

Montgomery County Clerk of the
Court Clayton K. Watkins will not
have so many different kinds of
licenses to issue this year if the
legislature abolishes long list of
licenses as recommended by the
subcommittee of the Tax Survey
Commission on Licenses.
Bills for the repeal of statutes
providing for such licenses are be-
ing prepared, according to authori-
tative sources.
Most of the proposed repeats
are on somewhat antiquated laws
anyhow, it is understood, such as
livery stable licenses. Only one
such permit was issued in 1889 and
that was in Baltimore, where it
Melted the State $3.50. The last
livery stable license issued in Mont
gomery County was to Jacob Poss,
owner of the Poss Livery Stable,
located on Commerce Lane where
the Haley Restaurant and Sanitary
Grocery Company building now
stands, Mr.. Watkins states.
Laundries, florists and detective
agencies will be on the free list, as
will be cleaning and dying estab-
lishments, shoe shining parlors and
hat cleaning shops.
Most of these outdated laws have
been in effect only in Baltimore, it
is understood. Owners of CONNER
cial, mercantile and mutual protec-
tive agencies, check rooms, stall
lions and stevedores will be ex-
empt.
E Nonresident wholesale tobacco
dealers, cash register and adding
machines, trading stamp compa-
MES, wholesale dealers in farm ma
chinery, ordinary keepers, shipping
brokers and shows are listed to be
placed in the license repeal column.
Even plumbers and gas filters
are scheduled to ply their trade
without license, the survey commits
sion report states. Approximate
ly $1,000 was taken in last year
from this item alone.
Most of the recommended repeats
are on either obsolete laws or laws
superseded by others, the commit
tee points out. These proposals
were submitted to the General As
sembly of 1941 as a part of the
report of the Maryland Legislative
Council. Arthur H. Brice is chair
man and Thomas E. Conlon vice.

Accident Commission, the post to
which she was recently appointed
by Governor O'Conor.

to the County Commissioners. The
resignation follows:

The Honorable Board Of
County Commissioners,
Montgomery County,
Rockville, Maryland.
Attention:
Mr.. Thomas E. Hampton, Pres.
Gentlemen:
In view Of the appointment, by
the Governor, of Miss Simpson as
a member Of the State Industrial
Accident Commission, we feel that
it will be necessary for US to sub
NIT our resignation as attorneys to
your Board. The new duties of
Miss Simpson will require that she
be away from Rockville for most
Of each week, and we feel that Mr..
Simpson will have all Of his time
taken in the conduct of our private
practice. We have advised Com
missioners Hampton, Roby and
Farmer Of our intention to resign,
and we ask that our resignation be
accepted and made effective imme-
diately.
Both Of US are convinced that the
record Of accomplishment Of your
Board Of County Commissioners
should be Of lasting credit to you
as members Of the Board.
During the time that we have
had the pleasure Of being your
counsel, there are many things
which your Board has passed
which will stand as progressive
measures in the furtherance Of the
general interest Of Montgomery
County. The fact that you have
sold Montgomery County obliga-
tions at the lowest interest rate
ever obtained by Board Of County
Commissioners, is indicative Of
your constant desire to operate our
County government On a most cfIl-
cient and economic basis, and re-
fleets a sound financial policy. Tho

Industrial activity directly re-
lated to defense will account for
about 1919 of total 1941 business.
Production indirectly related to de-
Tense will also aggregate about
1919. Thus, in 1941, 208o of our
total business activity will come

Babsonchart Index of Business to
average about 1919 higher than in
1910. Notable gains should take
place in textiles, shoes, mining,
foods, printing, publishing, ship
building, building, freight traffic
and many other industries. By
spring, business volume will be re-
cording a new all-time high.
It would be foolish to put a
definite figure on what the Babson-
chart Index will show in 1941, but
l should not be surprised it it
averages 125. Estimating the
country's income for 1910 at $74,-
