In August, 1937, the index number was 117 as compared with H9 in. 1929. By May, 1938, the num- ber dropped to 76, but last month it reached 100. The rapid upward bounce of industry leads to the belief that a leveling off period will soon check the re- covery climb. Moreover, 1939 is still expected to be an “up’ year. ass BETTER FEELING A better feeling between busi- ness and the Government is re- flected almost everywhere. There is a general realization that neither the Government nor business alone can keep the na- tion’s economic machinery mo ing. Gradually, business leaders are accepting the Governmert sn the role of regulator. Big busi- ness men are more and more re- alizing that business must not jignore its social obligations in a greedy scraimble for profits. RAILROADS The railroads are looking for financial assistrnce from the Government but the consolida- |tion of unneeded facilities will be blocked by political pressure from workers and other interest- jed groups. Recently, sentiment among the executives has moved toward lower passenger fares as an inducement to increased pas- senger travel. Undoubtedly, |many railroads are in serious | financial trouble, but their plight may be relieved by impreved business conditions. WPA The WPA rolls will have to be cut by at least ten per cent if available funds are to last for the fiscal year which ends this summer, Already, as preliminary cuts are announced, mayors and officials go into action, protest- ling against any reduction in their lareas. ‘The: probability is that ; Congress will be asked, to appro- |priate additional funds to con- tinue WPA work on, or close to, the present ale AIR” BASE | The Navy has notified the Puerto Rican Government’ that vans fer a San Juan naval air losing }$0" parked his car in the same! hase have been approved, with a request for titles to the proposed site, Isla Grande, in San Juan | harbor. DEBT AND INTEREST The December quarterly fi- nancing of the Government aised the nation’s funded debt to a new peak of approximately | $39,300,000,000. Due to the low rate of interest paid on Govern- ment obligations, this debt is be- ing carried for about the same amount of interest that it cost ‘the Government in 1923 to carry a debt of only $22,000,000,000. NICARAGUAN CANAL Renewed interest in the con- struction of a Nicaraguan Canal in the interest of national defense is evident. Since the Panama Canal was built, weapons of at- tack, particularly the airplane, have greatly increased in power. Some defense experts fear that sabotage in some form will ren- der the Panama Canal unavail- able to the fleet in the event of an emergency. ARMY NEEDS GUNS One of the needs of the Army, according to Louis Johnson, As- sistant Secretary of War, is ar- tillery, which in the World War accounted for more than seventy per cent of the gunshot casual- ties. In 1917, as most readers recall, the United States had to scrap its guns and use those of foreign nations. Just now, ac- cording to Mr. Johnson, our field artillery has gun carriages, de- signed more than forty years ago, with a maximum range of 9,000 yards. The modern type has a range of 13,500 yards, but the Army has only 112. Moreover, the Army has no 105-millimeter howitzer, with double the’ fire rower of the 75. Although the Ordnanee Department has de- veloped. .two | improved heavy calibre guns, equal to any in the world, there are but four of them in the Army. Moreover, there is need for an anti-tank gun of greater power than that supplied the infantry by present field ar- tillery. BORAH ON DEFENSE Senator Borah, of Idaho, comes’ forward with the prediction that if the United States joins the hysterical world armaments race, popular sentiment will foree Con- gress to approve a constitutional amendment.giving the people the right to declare any but a de- fensive war. Mr. Borah believes that the air force should be en- larged .but is against “a huge navy, beyond our needs for de- fense’ purpose FINDING JOBS The pick-up in industrial con- struction is credited with the re- duction in the number of WPA projects. Something like 630,000 persons left the WPA in August, September and October. Three- fourths ‘of them quit voluntarily and officials believe that many found work in industry. HOLDING COMPANIES The sixty-four holding com- panies in the utility industry, in- cluding all the major systems, have given notice of their plans for voluntary compliance with the simplification and integration provisions of the utility holding company a¢t. Chairman William PAGE THREE ' Students Are Convinced | Slot Machines Don’t Pay «Ry Axsociated Press) OMAHA, Neb., Dec, 17.—In- structor P. M. Rickabaugh of the ;Omaha Technical High School borrowed a confiscated slot ma- chine from the sheriff, took it apart to expose its inner work- ings and had his pupils play it to prove they could NOT win Eighty-four pupils tried their luck with the “one-armed ban- dit,”"—by using slugs—and not one “broke even.” Rickabaugh said the machine was a “super-shyster”’ because its pay ratio was 40 per cent compared with the average ma- chine’s 80, He pointed out that each wheel had 20 pictures but only 10 stops —thus reducing winning chances 50 per cent. Of four combinations of bars (the jackpot combination) only one could work. Carriage wheel holes in the other three had been soldered, making it impossible for them to click. They Have A Hobby —Digging For Gold t"y Asweciated Presa) HELENA, Mont., Dec. 17.— Outside of working hours two Helena businessmen, father and son, have become gold miners with their “diggings” inside the city limits. The two, Dean Kranich, clerk in the federal district court, and his father, George, are sinking a shaft in their backyard. They {intend to dig until they strike | granite, estimated to be 125 feet | below the surface. “It’s entirely an elbow grease job to give us exercise,” says Dean. Their theory is that there should be a deposit of gold at bedrock, carried there by seep- age through limestone. Gold has been found at other, places inside Helena's city limits. Exchange Commission, expressed his gratification and predicts that it would require at least five years to complete the job. Subscribe to The Citizen—200 weekly.
