It is one of the functions of government officials to be optimistic, to talk iike Babbits expecting to make a killing in the stock market. But words alone cannot bring about the return of booms, or at least good times. The public has a right to be some- what cynical at the frequently re- curring effort to solve the situation with honeyed phrases. That Kind of Loney sweetens no bread. What, then, will be the outcome, and what influence if any will the Administration have on the final re- sult? The Administration, having failed {hrough the magic of words to bring back piping times right away, as had been advertised by its friends, will have very little influence in the final turn for the better. The disease will run | without aid from the Administration its course doctors. Business men areSulready prepar- the tide ana {ing for the turn in many of them believe' it is on the| way. Rarely, in their conversation, do they mention the beneficent in- the great Hoover Ad- | of fluence ministration Tt by everybody that | prosperity will return from the bot- tom, not from fhe top. If every un- employed person in America could be put to work at good wages to- morrow the return of unexampied prosperity would start after the men received their first week's pay. Even stocks would go up. That, after all, is an “if;" but it scrves for purposes of illustration. Prices of some commodities have come down. That is because they have been out of the reach of the masses of buyers. When virtually all fundamental commodities slide to | the point where universal purchas- | ing is stimulated—which under such automatic- is realized | | | | | circumstances will come | ally—the return to good times wiil lhe automatic. | Modern mass production, it has | been said, produces more goods at | lower prices.
