FISCAL DISASTER FEARED BY MILLS Sound Recovery Waiting on: Job Problem . Solution, He Tells Chicagoans. Br the Associated Press. CHICAGO, November 12.—Ogden L Mills, former Secretary of the Treas- ury, said today the United States is faced with a fiscal problem that| “threatens our national solvency and invites a major disaster.’ “Until unemployment is solved there can be no sound recovery,” he said in an address prepared for delivery bc<’ fore the Chicago Rotary Club. | “Forty millions employed cannot earry indefinitely the dead weight of 10 million unemployed,” he said. “Our national economy cannot bear the load. The Federal credit must break under the continuously increasing strain.” | Job Problem Still Major One. Mills said the problem of unemploy- ment is still & major one because “the policies of the administration have been better calculated to perpetuate the evil than to terminate it.” “There was and is only one way to cure unemployment—that is to in- crease production,” he declared. “The way to increase production is to stimu- late buying by giv the consumer the benefit of lower prices for finished products and simultaneously to create conditions which will invite the flow of capital into producers goods or heavy industries, thus increasing cur- rent purchasing power by transform- ng savings into wages. “The administration elected to do Just the opposite, to restrict produc- tion, to force up costs and prices and to paralyze the flow of capital by fiscal and monetary policies that destroy indispensable confidence.” | Assailing the administration's mone- tary policies Mills asserted a Govern- ment should “influence ment in which b adding that “a first requisite is the provision of stable monetary conditions and sound credit conditions.” Contrary Aims Pursued. “The administration,” he declared, *“has actively pursued contrary aims, De 1 dealt a blow to ce and the integrity of the created an insidious d to international ment and did noth- basic price malad- | cing is steadily of the Gov- Deficit dermining the nent It al and monetary blun- and the same road 0 the A.

Adding a dollar to the purchasing power of Jones in the country by taking a dollar from the purchasing power of Smith in town, leaves the total purchasing power just where it was before.” He warned that the policy of re- stricting farm production will be fol- lowed by demands from industry for a similar policy of restriction, with the result that “total agricultural and industrial production will have been substantially reduced.” “Since we cannot consume what we do not produce there will be less to consume and the standard of living will fall. The unemployment prob- lem will have become more insoluable than ever.” HOMEMAKERS' CLUBS ANNOUNCE SPEAKERS Montgomery School Superintend- we are Mills | ent and Gaithersburg Pastor on Program.

It's Not Mild B Down in BY FRANK J. CARMODY. IKE nature, foot ball in the raw is never mild But it is a lot of fun to watch as it is played—sans bowls, chrysanthemums. cheer lead- ers, mascots, fur coats and the other spectacular trappings—down in Po- tomac Park these bright Autumn Sun- day afternoons.

Some of its intimacy, in fact, is decidedly pleas- ant Field Glasses Not Needed. For example, no one in the crowd needs field glasses to follow the sim- ple or intricate formations.

The players in such a game are not just numbers on the back of a jersey, | performers without personalities.

None of the normal rewards of the college player are theirs. There’s no good old Rutgers to do and die for, headlines the next morning. The spectators never even know the name of the quarterback who just got his teeth kicked out. He remains him.
