 There is food for sermons in the Census Bureaus latest survey of the book publishing field. Not only is the Bible still Americas best seller. way and wonder. but h @ Bible business is booming as it never has before. The total output of Bibles, Testaments and parts of the Bible published in 1889 to- taled 1927, 7,848-nearly two and d half million more than in 1887 The number of whole Bibles pub lished was 2.348,069, with separ- ately published Testaments amount ing to l.263,el4. Compare this with earlier years when the census talk CTS dipped into the publishing bus mess. In 1885, there were 59l ,173 Bibles published; in 1883, there were 6,448; and in 1881, the num- Der was 1,376,680.
 While the Bible business was soaring, fiction did a nose dive. In 1889, only 13,511,181 volumes of fiction were published, com pared to 25,454,135 in 1937.
 The Census Bureau doesn't try to explain things like this. It just hands you the figures. I'm not going to try either.

aged to retrieve portions of Thurs
days rather severe losses.
The flaw in the picture, however,
was that bidding was timid through
out and dealings exceptionally slow.
Closing gains of fractions were fair
ly well distributed among steels, mo-
tors, rails and assorted specialties,
but minor declines were plentiful.
Transfers for the full proceedings
were around 100000 shares, one of
the smallest turnovers since early
March.
The belief Of some commission
house customers that the selling of
the preceding session may have been
overdone, brokers said, inspired re-
inStatement of commitments here
and there. A "leetle" more inf1a-
tionary thinking also was thought
to have acted as price stabilizer.
Lack of much follow-through on
the buying which developed at the
opening was blamed on persistent
war doubts, accentuated by the ap-
parent collaboration" move of
France with Germany and continued
deadlocks in a number of labor con-
troversies. particularly in the soft
coal mining and West Coast shipping
industries.
Meeting of the railway brother
hoods to formulate higher pay de-
mandS also promoted wariness
among speculative contingents.
Stocks up moderately the greater
part of the day included United
States Steel. Bethlehem. Chrysler,
Santa Fe, Union Pacific, Kennecott.

should be given additional powers.
under proper safeguards and limita-

tc) further imports of gold should
be insulated from the banking sys-

This report further suggests that
at an appropriate time gold coin

1T is recognized that these pow

gradually to avoid shock to the
credit system.
Further, these steps alone will
not prevent imitation. They must
be accompanied by a sound fiscal
policy and to some extent by direct
action to check advances in prices
and wages which might start the
imitation spiral.
Fiscal policy is at the core of
the problem of carrying through the
financing of the defense effort
without initiation or economic dislo-

for meeting large proportion of
expenditures by taxation and selling
bonds to investors rather than banks
should receive the wholehearted
support of the banks and the pub

Taxation Called Best Way
To Finance Defense
BY the Associated Press.


BALTIMORE, May 16.-Paul En-
dicott, president of the United
States Savings and Loan League,
yesterday told TOO Southeastern
group representatives from 10 States
that taxation was the only COM
pletely non-infiationary way to pay
our national defense costs"
Endicott's address opened the 18th
annual conference of the sectional
group. Speaking on the Manage
ment Responsibilities in 194l," the
national president termed present
conditions a challenge to manage
ment in all lines of business"
Less money for saving means a
restricted flow of funds into our
associations, especially when coupled
with the Defense bond sales pro-
gram" Endicott said, but declared
the duty of the savings men was to
cooperate in rather than oppose in
creasing taxation.
Delegates to the two-day confer
ence represented approximately 100
savings and loan associations. They
received first-hand information on
the armament program from 1t.
