Wilson, assistant to the Director of the Of- fice of International Trade, Department of Commerce, re- cently told a group of business men that Western Euro- pean production is again on the upswing. Wilson, who has just returned from Europe and an investigation of busi- ness conditions, said Western European nations are coop- erating in many direction# toward greater economic fed- eration. Wilson noted a rebuilding of gold reserves by major Western Eufopean countriesand adoption of the coal and steel unity plan as signs of significant progress, He ‘point- ed out that France, for example, had increased its pro- duction to fifty per cent more than that of 1938, the year before World War II began. ‘See B.S yArial believes that increased trade is one 2 We answers to Europe’s economic problems, although not the answer to all of them. His words on the end of the recessional period in Europe are encouraging and come at about the same time as does the statement from Secretary of Agriculture Ezra T. Benson that the decline in farm prices has ended, To those prophets who foresaw a major recession in 1953, these developments seem out of tune. Many economic experts are now convinced that chances for a major recession in the United States, and Europe, are not as great as they were. In fact, a mild re- cession is thought possible for late 1953 or 1954, but it is no longer expected to bring about severe reactions in the economies of- West European nations or the United States. The new prospect is based partially on the erpectation that the new Administration will continue foreign aid on a large-scale basis and will continue to spend large, though slightly reduced, sums of money on national defense. While defense spending will taper down somewhat, the reduction is not expected to be so sharp as to plunge this country, or he Western European world, into an economic dilemma. The honeymoon for Ike is over. There is always a bigger fool than the one you have in mind. There are always a few who are eager to tear down any younger person who has made a go of it in life. .

Hasta la vuelta, 3 EL TIGRE DE JIGUANI Asi fué llamado este edioso general espafiol, que tomé parte activamente, durante la contien- da del afio 1868. Su nombre era Blas Villate. Su titulo, Conde de Balmaseda. No era un general de academia. Sus hechos de, sangre en Africa y algunos otros en su propia tierra, unidos a sus influ- encias politicas y al deseo de exterminio de los cubanos, que imperaba en la Peninsula, fueron los motivos principalés, para que se le premiara con. el nombra- jmiento de Capitan General de la Isla de Cuba. La actuacién de este militarote, se caracteriz6 por lo sanguinaria y por lo cruel. El era el Capitan General, cuando los desgraciados sucesos del 27 de noviembre de 1871.
