creases. Thus, the excess-profits
tax could be 80 per cent reduced
against 20 per cent reduction in
other taxes and yet all groups
would be treated alike.
Unless Congress very soon great
ly reduces the excess-profits tax,
many industries will be obliged to
shut down causing much unem-
ployment. Surely the labor situa.
ton has now been entirely chang
ed. Already newspaper advertise
ment, that heretofore asked for
more employees, are being pulled
out of the papers while the Jobs
Wanted columns have begun to
increase. Employers need no long

but workers may well change there
attitude. If you now have a job,
give your employer the best serv-
ice possible.
Now let us consider the possible
long-range effects of the new
Atomic Bomb on investments.
Briefly these are as follows: The
Atomic Bomb is bearish on down.
town city real estate, but b!lllisb
on suburban and country property.
It is bearish on the airp]ane manu-
featuring industry, but bullisn on
the autombile industry. 1t is bear
ish on railroads, but bullish On
highway construction. It is bearish
upon large department stores, but
bullish on chain stores. It is bear
ish on naval developments, but
should help peaceful pursuits. The
Atomic Bomb should aid appropri-
atoms for high school and college
science courses; but it will kill
present plans for compulsory uni
versal military training. It is
warning to investors in public utili-
ties to watch cash book values.
If these Atomic Bombs are as
powerful as the reports indicate, it
means that a world organization
with teeth is absolutely essential
to save civilization. The manufac-
ture of these bombs cannot be kept
secret. Every nation will know how
to make them. There will be boot
Logging in Atoms! However, even
this is bullish and insures world
peace for a long time to come, if
accompanied by a spiritual ,,wak-
ening. Hence, I am more optimis-
tic today than for many years.

Considering industry as whole,
peace must be bullish. if destruc-

Of World war II must result in i'm

face a tremendous readjustment.
On the other hand, these stocks
have already discounted much of
this readjustment. In fact, the total

BY ROGER BABsON

Babson Park, =.1ss., Dec. Fl -
Some weeks ago I commented In
this column on the 1915 domestic
crop outlook. At that time | predict
ed another total bumper production.
Now the final figures, in most in
stances, show | was 100 per cent
correct. Farmers barns. bins. and
other storage facilities literally are
bullying with the harvest. In fact,
the total crop outturn is only little
below the record productions Of
1912 and 1874.
New Highs Chalked Up
AboVe-average yields were he
rule for wheat, oats, rice, barley,
sweet potatoes, buckwheat. tobac-
co. sugarcane. peaches, pears, or
anges. grapefruit, almonds, hops
and truck crops. Near-record crops
are reported Sor hay. Irish potatoes,
flaxseed, soybeans. peanuts, pecans,
walnuts, and grapes. The corn and
sorghum grain crops also are lus-
ty.
All is not so rosy, however, as the
paragraph above might seem to in
dictate. Housewives interested in
fall and spring housekeeping
should take note that the broom
corn crop is the smallest since
1899! Lovers OF apples and sour
cherries will have to get by with
the smallest crops on record! Tex
tile manufacturers seeking long sta
pie. high quality cotton must make
their selection from the skimpiest
crop in many years; this in the
face of heavy mill requirements.
the dried bean crop is short, but
larger supplies of meat and poultry
should be an offsetting factor. The
rye crop Is sharply below normal.
No Cause for Complaint
Nevertheless. :he overall picture
remains definitely favorable. Farm
ers, in my opinion. have no cause
for complaint. In fact, they have
Jared unusually well during the
past few years OF large crops and
high prices. This is evidenced by
the fact that cash receipts from
farm marketings rose steadily
from $4,000, 900 in 1899 to tent
alive figure OF 2O.4O0,O0O,OOO in
1915. That is not chicken feed. It
