THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Numbers of people follow the very commendable practice of picking out an annual holiday or anniversary a3 ; the time for personal stock-taking. in every under- taking, after the partners have beer hatd at it for five or ten years, it is not a bad idea if they sit down sometime after elosing hours, light up, and say: “How are we doin’?” We are near the eighth year-end since the dumb- founding, dis- astrous stock to look over the national diaries. Doubtless. no very large propor- tion of American citizens are aware of any great similarity between what is going on now and what transpired in the New Era days of delightful nonsense.

Just as agriculture failed to improve in sympathy with recovery in the cities after the 1921 depression, so labor is failing to gain full employment with the present revival in business. Similarly, as business and indi- viduals spent lavishly in the pre= crash days, the Federal Government's actuat expenditures still exceed rts income. The excess for the first quar- ter of the current fiscal year was $1,953,000,000 as against $1.894.000,000 for the same period last year. in 1929, the increased purchasing power came largely from commer- cial banks.

And making the whole situation even more top-heavy are the oppres- sive, graduated t-xes on undistributed corporate profits. Much has been made in the last few weeks of the threat of unionism, particularly in the stéel trade, to account ereased wages: ly #3 much has been said about the soundness of the recovery to account for fhe resump- tion of dividends, and for the extra dividends paid in many casés.

The vote probably jreflects the current view that ‘third parties, after all, do not get the votes in a national election jand also, to some extent, a desire to administer a slap at the Lewi# faction which seems to be inclimed to abandon the custom of Labor to pass on candidates rather than jto put up its own nom-nees. We think the dec:sion was wise in the light of present conditions and the experiénce of the recent elec tion but no one can foretell what the situation will be in 1940. The idea pesists that if the nation can atta:n its production peak of 1929 the prodlem of un employment wil be solved, but Harry L, Hopkins, WPA head. points out that this is not correct. ; Right now, he says, we are only ten per cent below 1929 produc- tion, which should be attained next year. However, in 1929 there ;were 1,800,000 unemployed and carefully prepared estimates indi- cate that the number next year, on the basis of 1929 productior jnot be less than 6,500,000. Ble imach'ne improvement enab es workers to produce ten per cent more than in 1929 there is mor unemployment in sigin than thi< indieatcs, dre to the fact that about 500,000 more ycung work- ers appear every yeer than tne number of those reti ard death. Mr. Hi ns thinks it will take a production gain of 45 per cent over 1929 to absorb all workers. With these figures in mind, it is casy to understand why the jPiesident has made it clear that he will ask Congress for fund with whch to continue the work- relief program. Some months ago Mr. Roosevelt estimated that $2. 000,000,000 would be needed for the present fiscal year and he ask- ed for $1,500,000,000, then re- serving the right to ask for more. Now he finds this necessary, part- ly beeause industrial employment has not yet taken over the unem- ployed and partly because an un expected drought required the use of large sums for relief in farm and miscellaneous other toys are} areas, However, there are signs in the air that this huge expense will be somwhat lightened in the near future as cond'tions in in- i dustry improve.
