That, of course, is not true. Mr. Sloan set out to prove it untrue by opening up the vista of the future possibilities and certainties in store for the advancement of humanity's economic condition.

WINTER .... its aftermath The severest winter ever known in the Northeastern part of the U-iitef. States, followed by the lat.--.it Spring for many years, has not done quite so much damage as had been feared. In the last week in May farmers in northern New England had not fin ished their Spring plowing, and trac es of frost still remained in many places. Crops will be short and late. But there turns out to have been little damage to native trees, plants and shrubs, deriving fjjom strains which have become acclimated over hundreds of years. j The chief sufferers have been the flowers and ornamental shrubbery imported from warmer climes.

With the adjournment of Congress apparently set for th middle of June, the out look is that President Roosevelt will get about all of the legislation that he really wants? and some that he doesn't care about? by that time. Major measures which seem cer tain to be passed include the silver bill, which extends the President's power to remonetize silver but does not compel him to do anything about it; the bill authorizing the President fo revise traiffs; the measure pro viding for industrial loans by R .P. C. and the Federal Reserve; the bill the Government regulation of wire and radio communications; the ex tension of the present bank deposit insurance plan to stimulate home building and employment in the build ing trades by providing a Government controlled guarantee funds to insure lenders on first mortgage from loss in loans made for home repairs and improvements under Government re strictions and approval. The most exciting thine in Wash ington, however, is not that Congress is going back home to run for re 'Lectoin, though that is something ?.vhich always evokes sighs of relief icre. It is the controversy that has ':een started by the Darrow report on the worging of tW> NRA. The comnvitte appointed at the Ln istence of Senator Nye of North Jakota ,to investigate and report on he question, whet her the code system up under General Johnson was >eneficial or otherwise to small busi nesses. was headed by Clarence Dar ow, famous radical attorney. Mr. Darrow has always been the >utspoken champion of the "little ian"' and if not himself an avowed Socialist, is looked uj>on as their hero y many of that group. It was hardly o he expi-ctrvl that a oommission Vlttl fHm hend w?nM have^-^ ny kind words to say for "bigjwmi ess", but the harsh words he said bout the NRA and its codes set the .hole Administration by the ears. The Darrow report was withheld "rom publication for tnree weeks vhile General Johnson and Donald lichberg, counsel for the NRA, had ime to write scathing replies, which ?ire in the main denial of the Dar? *ow charges that the codes favor rao lopolies. The two NRA officials be ame very personal in their remarks. There is a good deal of significance lttached here, however, to the fact .hat after the Darrow report had l?een submitted and before it was published, General Johnson announc ed that theTf would bq a 'broad change in the system under which the NRA I operates. Many of the smaller lines of business will be ex >mpted frorib the codes, and only the large , concerns doing an interstate business will 1m- continued under Gov >rnment regulation. There is si ill a good deal of shak "ng down and shaking up to be done Vforc the Administration machine rets into smooth working order. A great deal of work has been lone by the Administration and the >utlook is for more and better meth ods of bringing prosperity back. Ac tion j has taken the plaee of inaction, ind no one questions the fundamental honesty of purpose back of every thing that is being done here. There has been great courage displayed in the face of strong opposition to any kind of change. The ba^ikijng situation has b.ven >ut on a firm footing. In spite of many failures, breakdowns and chang ps in experiments, the feeling is quite general that basic permanent improvement will come Out of the NRA and AAA. Even those most di rectly affected by the plans for regu lating the trading in securities admit that the former conditions were ex tremely bad and needed reforming. Not everybody agrees that the meth ods of regulation selected are the best and most workable, but they will at least cure the worst of the old evils, even though' they may bring new ills in their train to some. Washington still believes that if the wide-spread program of relief had not been put into effect, through the PWA, CWA, CCC, FERA and other agencies, there would have been a real revolution in America, differ ent folki have different ideas about that, but so long as the Administra ( Continued on Pane 2)
