(Auto caster)—Look for some sort of a statement shortly from Presi dent Roosevelt designed to re assure business and Industry that the profit system is not going to be abolished and that there is nothing to worry about. Those in close touch with the President and his Intimate advisers say that he intends to make some such utterance shortly.

When the slaves saw him they shouted “Mar’se Will’s ghost!” Physicians said the effecte of his wounds shortened his life, as ,i he was never strong and died at /..the age of 69. Jan. 20, 1908. w Mr. Foster was the father of Miss May Foster and Mrs. John Tevepaugh, who are members of the local chapter of the U. D. C. CYCLE NEWS jly gept. 24.—Mr. and ^jeAmlth and son. Worth, of C?^nsboro, spent the week end at Cycle visiting relatives and friends.. Mrs. Nettle Smith and little daughter, Bobbie, and Miss Etta Bottoms were visitors in the ome of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Kobbins, Friday night. Miss Connie Gregory, Miss Zo la Williams and Miss Edna White, of Union Grove, visited Mrs. Ollie Somers, Friday eve ning. Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Shore and daughter. Miss Ruby Shore, were welcome guests in the home of Mrs. Mahulda Somers, Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. M. C. Jones, oi Ronda. spent Sunday afternoon ed to offset the rising tide dissatisfaction with the methods of the Recovery program. How far any statements from any source can go in that direc tion remains to be seen. There is a strong belief here, shared by many of the more conser /atlve members of the Administration, that Washington does not yet realize how deep and widespread the demand really is for radical changes in the program. Leaving political and partisan angles out of consideration,—for most of the serious criticism is not par tisan in its origin but comes from sources all over the coun try which are suffering economic distress because of what they be lieve are impractical theories,— there is little or no personal crit icism of the President. On the contrary a hope amounting al most to belief is that when he fully understands the situation he will use his powerful leader ship to set matters right. Industry and .Agriculture There was nothing political in the secret meeting at Hot Springs. Va., of 150 of the na- i tion's foremost industrialists a i week or so ago at which the whole New Deal was discussed I and a constructive program of I amendments to the present set- I up was agreed upon. How much I influence that may have nobody, can predict. But with . , , , j I of course. In the home of Mr. and Mrs. ... , general getting no C. Anderson. f better, and with prices rising Miss Flora Bottoins is spend-1 Ing a few weeks with her sister Mrs. Nettie Salem. Smith, in Since the discovery of .Ameri ca, 25,000 tons, or 17 billion dollar.s worth of gold, has been produced in the world. This amount would make a solid gold tower 20 feet in dameter and 140 -feet high. I profits disappear and reserves Winston-j vanishing, it is not at all sur prising that many of the big in dustrialists take an extremely gloomy view of the situation. Reports of disaffection among the farmers in many regions ov er the AA.A program are coming hiitKer Lewhi From Experience ..{A It must be set down u a’ faet that the' Admlntotratlon"*'* as ft whole learns from experlencftif* Mr, Roosevelt has been the first, to admit that Some of his ei^ri- ments hr''en’t worked' out, ^Jnat as he was frank'enough to an nounce at their Ihoeption that they were purely experiments. So there Is ground for the belief that the re-organlzatlon of the NRA and * the easing up of Its more onerous burdens upon In dustry, which has been discuss ed freely for some time, will ac tually take place. It will take time to unscram ble the eggs, but this Adminis tration is nothing if not optlmis- °f i tic, and business men in touch with matters here are becoming more hopeful that free competi tion, which has always been re garded as the “life of trade,” will come back, although on, per- hape, a higher ethical scale. Al so, with reservations permitting ‘‘cartels’’ or similar combina tions in industries in which com petition is not based upon vari ations in the product. Needed BanklitK Reforms One great reform which seems to be on the way will Involve fundamental changes In the banking system as a whole. It is no new discovery that the bank ing system in the United States is the worst in the world; econ omists and bankers having been saying that for forty years. The recent conference of Gov ernment financial departments and bank examiners has resulted in placing the principal respon sibility for hank examinations wi h the Federal Deposit Insur ance Corporation, and instruc tions to examiners not to order loans thrown out where the in terest has been promptly paid, even though there has been no reduction of the principal. This and other changes are expected to improve the bank credit situ ation, though probably not as much as the Government desires. A tightening of Federal con trol over all bank credits seems inevitable, and plans which are shaping for a central bank of issue to supplant the Federal Re serve and exercise many of the functions of the RFC and the Comptroller of the Currency may provide the means for backing up the "managed currency’’ pro gram of the Administration.

There is probably more the Labor situation this Fall and concern in high Administration quarters over that than over the plaints of the industrialists. The fact that Undersecretary Tug- weli has gone to Europe on an "inspection trip" of two months or more is taken in informed circles here to signify that he is on his way out. and that his Winter. It is too soon to predict that the attitude of the next Congress will be on this or any other question, hut in the Ad ministration the feeling is grow ing that the free hand granted to organized labor has not prov ed entirely a success.
