Now she is falling in love with David and disgusted with Richard. Richard, the suave, handsome stepfather, proposed secret love to Nina.

Checks and Tax Bills of Every Individual; Na- tional and International Problems Insep- arable From Local Welfare As Dorothy Thompson wrote a few weeks ago, “The capacity of this country to weather another | depression, before the serious so- cial, economic and political ef- fects of the last one have worn is one great big question ' | which is perhaps the most unset- tling factor in the current situa- tion. Industrial production has widely declined. Securities are combing the price depths. Busi- ness’ sentiment is even worse than the business production fig- ures—principally, because of doubt as to the future, and fear of what the coming months may bring. In other words, the sta- tistics are bad—but the imponder. ables, such as investor psychology, are a great deal worse. It is this tremendously important factor which makes the post-September drop something different than just another recession in a long- pull recovery movement. And it is this which is responsible for the amazing variety of present-day forecasts as to the trend of com- ing events, One school, including government Officials and other imize the recession so far as pos- sible, and to make it seem less se- vere than it actually is.. Another school, which includes those who are exceedingly opposed to all of the acts and, objectives of the Ad- ministration, tries to make the’ picture even darker than it is. To! try to strike the happy medium, } between the apostles of sweetness | and light on the hand, and -the bearers of the blackest tidings on! the other, is the tough job that! confronts any annalist today. First, some facts. The country has not yet felt the full brunt of the drop, though more and more of the impact is becoming visible daily. The employment situation! will be grave this winter. During; October, about 100,000 workers were laid off. During November, the number reached 400,000, ac-) cording to the best estimates ob-| tainable at the time this is writ-! ten. During December, it seems inevitable that a still larger num- ber of workers will be divorced New Deal partisans, tends to min-} fessional help, employ today about | as many people as in 1929. A ma-| jar continued drop in industrial production would obviously be; felt in a sharp reduction of em-) ployment in this: bracket... Trade, distribution and: finance, in 1929. Construction, however, _ has! made up only one-fifth of its loss- es since 1929, on the basis of fig- ures which do not take fully into account the current recession. The transportation industries are far under their pre-depression em- ployment losses. Figures for the} manufacturing industries are too uncertain to be quoted—the em- ployment total of even a week or two ago is likely to be extremely high as against the employment} total of even a week or two hence, as it is manufacturing which first’ feels a drop in consumption, and is able to first trim its sails to; meet the storm. In all the industries mentioned, with the possible exceptions of transportation and the utilities, employment will continue to drop forecasters are pessimistic enough until the recession is ended. Some to foresee a rise in unemployment, {to the worst depression level, when it touched 12,000,000. One| {thing seems certain—it will be! impossible for the Federal gov- ernment to stay out of the relief field on a big scale, and to con- tinue the retrenchment policy be- gun in the early fall. The effects! would be too severe. The feeling is growing in industrial quarters that, much as a balanced budget is needed, the time for relief econ- omy must be put off. Now, some theories. How long will the recession last? A few} economists-fear that it cannot be checked, and will result in aI other long, major depression, per- haps culminating in an actual panic. The bulk of the experts think that the down-turn can be! checked early this winter, and turned into an up-turn in late | January or early February, if!
