RECOVERY FACTOR World’s Business Men Be- lieve Depression Will End With Good Farm Year. BY MARK SULLIVAN. A summary of views about the end of business on, expressed in private conversations by business lead- ers here for the International Chamber with crops in the United States. If practical wisdom about the duration of depression exists, it should be found in this gathering. As in the case of many such gatherings, their privately ex- pressed, informal views are rather more fll\xnumi1 ting than the formal, set es. Their emphasis on the coming. sear son’s crops in America is part of their conviction that recovery of the world as a whole will begin with recovery in the United States. The point made about the coming season’s crops is that these crops, if good, will be an enor- mous addition to the wealth of the world. It will be actual, true, funda- mental wealth which the world can feel in its hands and eat and wear and build with. If the crops are abundant and at the same timé low in price, the latter of the two conditions will mot please the American farmer, but is Tegarded as rather a help from the world point of view. Recovery Starts in Summer. A confirmatory point made by some of the older business leaders is that concrete recovery from every depression E HANDICAP JUMP IS POPULAR CLASS.

Ladue. Public hearings on the new outdoor sign regulations for the District of Co- lumbia, it was announced today, prob- ably will be held by the Commissioners the latter part of this month. ‘The Sign Committee, which has been drafting the new regulations under su- thority of a recent act of Congress, sub- mitted its final report and draft this morning to Col. William B. Ladue, En- gineer Commissioner. Col. Ladue de- sires to study it before submitting it to the other Commissioners. Whether this would be later today or at the next board meeting was not known. Along with the draft of regulations was embodlied a list of authorized sign sites for the guidance of officials in ad- ministering regulations. This was compiled from the survey made recently by the police in every pre Maj. Donald A. Davison, Assistant Engineer Commissioner, is the chair- man of the Sign Committee. It is prob- able that the public hearing, ordered by Congress before the regulations become effective, will be held May 27 or during that week. Dr. Luther H. Reichelderfer and Maj. Davison both expect to leave the city the first part of June and the latter is anxious that the Commission- ers pass on the regulations at an early date.
