Advises Caution
In Expansion
Programs
BY LEWIS HANEY

Professor Of Economics, y. \. University
The statistical returns for
March show that a sort of criti-
cal level of business activity had
been reached. and that either
some readjustment will be neces-
sary, or some stimulus such as
higher prices will be required TO
enable further gains.
1 am inclined TO expect the
latter; but advise caution in
programs of expansion. either as
TO inventories, forward orders,
or production capacity.
Government officials will be
well advised 10 heed the statisti-
cal warnings. and to avoid both
misunderstanding and unsound re-
form experiments az this time.
Unity and reasonable business
confidence are highly important
for the program Of national de-
Tense. The administration should
note thai one gets more milk
from contented COWS.

Re-enforces Criticism

This British move re-enforces
the earlier criticism in this
column to the effect that some
of the TNECs observations
were untimely at this moment
of heightened national defense
and aid TO the democracies. The
need OF the hour is efficiency
in the output Of things. and the
occasion is not opportune for
academic attacks on forms of
economic organization. Eff i
cheney in making things should
be the current criterion.
OF course. in time of peace,
competition is persiste y
weighing the relative merits of
Capitalization and decentraliza-
ton in various industries.
In the efficient motor trade,
for example, the two ideas have
been combined. with centraliza-
ton production Of the principal

Units Preparing
For Practice
At Mccoy
Times star Correspondent

FORT CUSTER, April ia
group of officers and enlisted men
from the 2lst Field Artillery Bat
talon and the 1s4th Field Artil-
lery Regiment left this morning
for Camp Mccoy, Wis TO prepare
for the movement of the two units
there next week.
The group which left this morn
ing under the command of Lieut..
Cot Ernest z. Hayes viii make
final arrangements for the housing
of more than 100 men and
equipment of the two large artil-
lery units. The units in full force
will leave next Saturday morn
ing, taking with them the large
l55 nm. howitzers with which
they are equipped
The firing will mark the first
time these large guns have been
fired on the Mccoy range since
troops were concentrated at Fort
Custer. II will also mark the last
movement of heavy weapon troops
from Fort Custer TO the Wisconsin
base. 1t is necessary for troops
TO go elsewhere than the local
reservation because Of insufficient
area in which to fire the larger
guns with which the StA piirisiess
is equipped.
The 2lst Field Artillery Bat
talon will return TO its base on
May 10 and the fS4th rIeld Artil-
lery on May 13. Shortly after. the
units will move with the rest of
the division to Tennessee for Sum-
mer training maneuvers.

Hit by Coal Strike

Automobile produclnn' eSti-

Existing Condition

In normal times. no quick
generalization about centraliza-
ton or decentral i "a ION is
enough. Executives must care
fully consider the bearing Of the
size of operations on costs. and
the objective should be 10 pro-
vide the customer with more for
less, while adequately compen-
sating workers. 1t should be
borne in mind that current SET
ups have been comparatively
worked out in an evolutionary
way through the intelligence OF
many business men on the basis
of much precise factual data.
The existing decisions n p d
continuously 10 be re-examined
in the light of changing condi-
tions. but the test should not
be the fantasies of politicians
and academic critics, but the
shifting requirements Of the peo-
pie and changes IN technology
