Price Recession Tempo
rary, Says Washingon
?
Opposition To Standard
Wage* and Hours
By J. E. JD1KS
Washington, D.CH Nov., 13, 17
Wsahlngton does not share in
fears of a sew depression. The
recession Baring the Uat three
month* is called temporary by
heada of oar Government,
There la a lot of talk a'jout
what wiO be donS about taxation,
and domanda from all over the
country are flooding1 the Capital to
"let up" on activities or measure*
that are owing down business.
Congraaa apparently reacts to the
Banger of bringing private business
more and more under the con- j
trol of the Government. While
labor organization* are crowding
in their views for1 further advan -
tagea In the way or wages and
hours some whole States are
oppoaed to measures that would
caH back conditions of Govern- 1
moot control each aa existed un
der the NRA.
Perhaps half the entire United
States oppose* what is calked j
?"standard" wages and hours, be
cause such a system would change
economic structures in alf parts of
the country. The South is a great
objector, and at preaent there is
? concerted effort of aeven Sou
thern Statea to entice manufactur
era to locate their plants in those
8t?teai. They hold out the 1 n - j
docementa of lower wages and
cheaper costs of living, AH these
f aetora are important and wIOT be ,
given propee consideration by Con
greaa.

Timely Farm Questions
Question? Wh*6 can I do to stop
"?pickoatif in ray flock of Leg
Horn henst
Answer? This condition U un -
doubted ly related to Intensity of
production, and aa yet no prac
tical method of control has been
advanced. If any change in diet
la made to alow up production,,
it It very probable that thia
would result in ? neck moult
which la undesirable. The moat
practical method of approach is to
observe the birds frequently and
ifomedlately remove those ahowtntT

One For Ripley
At curious and perhaps unprece - I
dented actuation has arisen In
S?n Francisco where two great puV
Ucly owned bridge* spanning the
Bay have recently been built. Be
fore the day of the bridges, San
Francisco commuters were served
for twd generations by a pictures
que ferry system which carriedpas
?engers and automobiles from the
city to all other Bay points. The
ferry system, privatelu owned and
publicly regulated, represents pri
vate luunafmaul, and must pay
Its own way in addition to heavy
taies. The new competition of
the tax-free bridges caused the
ferries to lose the great bulk of
their passengers. Finally they 1
sought and obtained permission to
reduce their fares from 50c to
30c a trip,
Now the publicly owned and
tax-exempt bridges complain that
the lowi ferry rates are cutting in
to the bridge business and they
are asking that the ferries be
forced by law to raise their charg
es.
To quote the San Francisco
Chronicle; "We are familiar with
Instances in which public owner
ship ? by using the public credit;
escaping taxation and falling back
on taxpayers to pay deficits, has
has driven private ownership t o
the wsll. In this instance it is
argued that private ownership can
be compelled to charge rates high
enough to drive away business,
go into' bankruptcy and leave a
monopoly to its public owner
ship competitor."
Here is an entirely new theory
of rate making which asks, in ef
fect, that publicly owned business
es, backed by the money of all
the taxpayers, be allowed to de
?troy a private company to es
cape competition. It demands
that where a private fcnalness tak
es patronage from publicly own
ed businesses, the former should
b? forced to Increase its charges
to the point where it loses all
its trade. One main argument for
the establishment of the publicly
owned bridges was to reduceferry
fares fop the public? they htvt
succeeded and the public is pro
fiting? what are they kicking about?
This la one for Ripley of '"Be
lieve It Or Not" fame.
Things One Remembers
Ever so often someone will
cuss California for blowing its own
horn too loudly. Then they wiJ
sit back and admire the state for
the way it does things.
Maybe It's the sunshine, maybe
it's the romance, maybe It's their
dare-devil pioneer spirit. Butwhat
ever it ia, they do things in s
big way down there.
And now they're going to have
another World's Pair In 1939, on
"'Treasure Island." There they
go again, getting Just the right
name for a new island they have
actually built to hold the fair, i
As I gazed out of one of the
most sightly, windows in the world
in a room in the Hark Hopkins
hotel, overlooking the two great
est bridges in the world across
San Francisco Bay, "'Treasure Is
land," and an unaurpassed pa i -
orama of mountains and water a
whole fleet of batttleships, I
couldnt help but think, "What a
bunch of go-getters you Californ -
ians are, One has to talk about
you in order that the rest of the
world may come and enjoy some
of the things you have."? R. M.
