Business and Financial Outlook
For 1919
By: Roger w. Babson
/. Total volume of business
for 1949 will be less than that
of 1948. There surely will be
many soft spots.
General Business
2. Most industries will show
smaller net profits. This means
that, in many cases dividends
will be less in 1949.
8. Military preparedness will
be a new and powerful industry
which this country never here
tofore experienced in peace
times. It is destined to bolster
employment for some years
ahead, but not the standard-of-
living.
q. Inventories quoted at their
dollar values and in volume will
increase during 1919. Both raw
material piles and manufacture
ed goods will be in greater sup
ply during 1949.
Commodity Prices
5. Some rationing or prioritieS
may be attempted in 1949. The
public will make demands for
price controls in the case OF
certain products. Beware of in
!stallment purchases in 1949.
6. We expect the peak in
wholesale commodity prices has
been reached for this cycle. We
therefore, advise going easy on
inventories. 1949 is a time to get
out of debt and stay out Of
debt.
Z. The retail price of some
goods, other than food products,
maybe higher during 1949, but
we believe that the Cost-of-liV-
ing Index has turned down
ward.
8. Retail price changes lag
after wholesale price changes.
This explains why we expect
many retail prices on good
quality merchandise to hold up
for awhile after Wholesale prices
decline.
Farm Outlook
9. The total farm income for
1919 should be less than that
of 1913, due to lower prices for
wheat, corn, pork, poultry, eggs

the alarming increase in the
number of tuberculosis cases in
Big Horn county. 80.
Dr.. Yeats said the disease
Is increasing at an alarming
rate, especially among the In
dianS and blamed lack Of en-
forcement of laws governing
contagious disease as the rea-
son for the increase.
Indian veterans may have
free care at the veterans hos
pital at Walla Walla, Wash,
and others at Sioux Falls, S.
D." DR.. Yeats said, "but cases
taken to the hospitals may
leave of their own free will"
It was recommended that
something be done to enforce
care of infectious cases of tu-
berculosis and other diseases.
It was also recommended that
a law be passed by the state
legislature demanding that lab
orers brought into the state for
Short-term employment be Civ
en- a physical examination be-
fore coming to the state, so
that they may not become a
responsibility to the various
counties.
The state association of coun-
ty health boards is expected to
present such laws to the state
legislature.
The county health officer al
so reported that a meeting was
held at Crow Agency on De-
ceber 16 in regard to control of
cases of infectious diseases.
Present at the meeting be-
sides the health officer were L.
G. Lippert, superintendent of
the Crow Indian reservation;
Wava Dixon, consultant OF the
state board of health; Madelyn
Highbaugh and MRS. Boklund,
county health nurses. and the
school boards from Wyola and
Lodge Grass.
Experts from the law gov
erning CONTAGIOUS diseases were
read showing that county
health officers and sheriffS may
arrest those who do not con-
form to the law in treating
contagious disease.
A resolution was drawn up at
the meeting and has been sent
to the Secretary of Interior at
Washington .. C. for approval.
If approved, the resolution
will be posted in prominent
places throughout the county
so that all residents may know
what the law is.
It was further recommended
at the Crow Agency meeting
that the mobile X-ray unit be
brought to this county early
next year and every effort made
X-ray every person in the
county.
The county health officer
said that the federal govern
ment has allocated $750, 900 for
construction OF a tuberculosis
hospital for Indians at Galen.
If the funds are not used before
June 80, 1949, they will revert
to the federal government.
State officials and the state
tuberculosis association are now
working on plans to use the
money Immediately. ~
Officials of the Crow Indian
agency have opened the clinic
building at Lodge Grass for use

lie health instruction to mothers

Capacity Audience Greets Eddy
After Absence of Several Years

treated his listeners like a group OF
friends. Not only did he tell them
the gist Of the songs with humorous
comments but mirrored the mean
ing in his facial expressions and
attitude. Through the ability his
long experience in Hollywood has
given him, he. was able to establish
a more intimate atmosphere than
is usual in the concert hall and
which his public enjoye d
thoroughly.
In comparison to his remem-
bered appearances here, Mr.. Eddy
has gained in sureness and ease of
presentation. as also more pol
ished style in songs where style is
the earmark. The "Lacio chic
pianga" from Handel's "Rinaldo, "
COLOMBIA, o tortorella" from
Mozart's Magic Flute" Beethoven's
"Ich liebe dich," Brahms "Erinne-
rung" and Mittler's "Ueber den
Bergen" were examples of his pro-
ficiency in this line. At times, his
vocal production was labored but
the voice has still its fine quality
when freed from pressure that
robbed 1t Of fluency and resonance.
The cold may have caused much Of
this, for in. lighter songs the tim
bre took on greater sweetness and
clarity.
The splendid breath control which
the baritone possesses allowed him
to give some quite different effects
in the often sung "At Night" by
Rachmaninoff, and In other num-
bers where long phrasing gave a
more subtle touch. His diction is
superb and equally fluent in Italian,
German and Russian as in English.
In Russian, he sang 'The Moon Is
High in the Sky" from Rachmani-
noff's opera "Aleko," Dargomizhsky's
THE Miller" acting out the intoxi-
Gated character, and a popular folk
song. He is more skilled also in
conveying the sentiment of song
and Brahms "Staendchen," War
ren's Remembering" and Guion's
"Mam-selle Marie" were especially
well delivered.
The accompaniment played by
Theodore Paxton were so finely
wrought as to provide an ideal
background for the singer. Mr..
Paxton appeared on the program
also in the roles Of. pianist and
composer, his Laughing Song"
closing the printed list. His excel
lent performance of Bach's "Toc-
cata and Fugue in D minor re-
quired an encore and he played a
"Nocturne" by Field.
Mr.. Eddy was generous with en-
cores during the program and at
the end. Among those following the
song groups were "The Blind
Ploughman," "Short'nin Bread"
Frog Went a Courtin'" and "It
Amt Necessarily So'' from Ger
shwin's "Porgy and Bess." These
were In response to the insistant
applause which called the singer
back repeatedly, and more were
added at the programs conclusion
when only few left the hall. The
recital was the last event of Dor
othy Hodgkin Dorsey's series.

Absence has not lessened the
appeal Of Nelson Eddy, and his first
recital here in several years was
sung to q capacity audience in Con-
stitution Hall last night. He was
warmly greeted and, in spite OF the
fact that he was suffering from a
severe cold. each number was re-
Iceived with the same enthusiasm
as was familiar spectacle in the
times when Mr.. Eddy was featured
regularly each season. Some silver
has crept into the curly fair hair,
but no marked changes are dis
cernable in this well groomed singer
| of screen, radio and concert fame.
The effects Of his indisposition
were noticeable in his voice, par
ticularly In the beginning, and the
spirit Of his first numbers was
created with effort. This passed as
he got into the mood, when he
brushed all formality aside and
