Sen Affect the E ditties Pails, Dividend Checks and:Tax: Bills of Every Individual; Na- tional and International Problems Insep- arable From Local Welfare As a rule, the adjournment of congress produces a life in busi- ness. The adjournment of the last congress was very definitely an exception. The reason for that is found in this quotation from the United States News: “The Seventy-Fifth Congress, ending its third session in two years, leaves a record of spending more, talking more, and passing fewer new laws than almost any recent congress”. Talking and spending natural- | ly have an adverse effect on busi- ness—inasmuch as most of the talk is always directed against in- dustry, and increased spending means new or higher taxes. On the other hand, business usually finds encouragement in a_ con- gress that is slow to pass new Jaws. But here again the last congress was an exception to the FOR RENT rule. Business wanted drastic tax revision—and what it got was a FOR RENT—Large airy rooms at|yery moderate new tax bill, seaside, bathing facilities. In-| which does away with some in- quire 407 South street. equalities, but, according to most may25-tf | observers, leaves the basic tax problem virtually untouched.

M. and a Western Union Messenger Boy will be a good idea to give every re- tiring member of congress a pen- sion of $5,000 a year—in order to alleviate economic pressure, and eliminate the fear that loss of of- fice also means—loss of _ liveli- hood. Biggest question before business now is, Can the lending-spending program produce any substantial recovery? Usual answer is No— the average business leader feels that the adverse effects of further inflating the national debt will offset the beneficial effects of ad- ditional pump-priming. The sud- den release of several billion dol- lars may cau: momentary up- turn in the ¢; —but it is wide- ly felt that much of this money will go for non-productive activi- ties, that some of it will go for purposes which are definitely dis- couraging to industry, and that the net gain will be extremely small, Turning to the statistics, it is found that for the last week for which this column has informa- tion, business in general contiriu- Some items of in- te follow: CURITIES: Market values have changed little.

STEEL: Bad business-for the automobile industry means bad business for steel. Latest available figures show operations at 25 per cent of capacity, with the outlook ‘indicating that still lower levels will soon be reached.
