By Ruth Cbowell "If we spend 20 billion dollars more than we are spending now, we can be out of the depression within the next 12 months, bar ring another World War. Then in 1940 we will have another de pression, but we can stop that if we get control of the investment banks," said Dr. R. H. Montgom ery, member of the National Resources Board, in an inter view yesterday. A small man from Texas, who wears larger than average hats so that people won't think he is from the East, Dr. Montgomery has a keen sense of humor and a gift of subtle sarcasm. He has been in Chapel Hill for the past few days visiting Mr. and Mrs. H. E. Moore. A professor of economics at the University of Texas, now on leave, Dr. Mont gomery was in the resettlement work for six months and is now with the Resources Board. Supreme Court "Some day we are going to wake up and laugh at the Su preme Court they are just stuffed shirts which we have surrounded witn a halo 01 re verence. They are just like any other nine men, only older and behind the times." declared Dr. Montgomery forcefully. Reviewing the trends m in dustry and agriculture, the pro fessor explained that the prob lem facing the nation today is reaching a medium between the high prices of industry and the enormous production of agricul ture. Farmers N "Cotton farmers would be in swell shape if they cut produc tion 75 percent as industrialists have done only they wouldn't have a shirt on their backs if they did. Oh, this is an amus ing world," laughed Dr. Mont gomery. "What I would really like to see done in the resettlement work is the puilding of communi ties of 250 inhabitants with enough land for them to farm co operatively to compete with the big corporations now closing in," said Dr. Montgomery. "What we want is goods, all we can get; and if we can't get what we need, something is wrong. . If the banking system, the Supreme Court, or the Con stitution is wrong then change it," declared Dr. Montgomery as he left to call on Dr. Zimmer- mann.v - ' -r ' ' 7 "- , - - , 7 ' - -, - . - - J i "4, T ' s ' 1 Jf ' 1 ' i n : -mttttmmMirtom.

Holes Making his first stage appear ance 14 years ago in "Clair de Lune," with Ethel and John Barrymore, he has played many important roles on Broadway and throughout the country. Hazel Beacham, who inter viewed Standing during his last appearance here says that he is by far the most fascinating man she has ever met. "He is dis tinguished looking, possesses a lively personality ana is an en tertaining conversationalist, and yet entirely natural An entirely new type of musi cal instrument, concert model of he new Hammond orean will be used for a demonstration con cert in Memoriall hall tomorrow morning at 10:30. This organ is not a pipe organ in that it does not contain either pipes, air pressure system, or vibrating parts. It is an organ, however, since it is capable of producing organ tones. Although an electric organ it neither reproduces, as a phono graph does, nor does it simply transmit music, as a radio, but actually creates musical tones electrically. It covers the entire range of musical tone color with extraor dinary beauty and flexibility, and its volume is adaptable to every type of installation. The organ can easily be installed in any room with an electric plug. On an organ of this type any familiar tone quality may be compounded as well as new tones which have not been heard be fore in musical literature. The question, "How many stops are there on the Hammond Organ?" cannot be answered in pipe organ terms. More than 250,000,000 different musical tones can be produced on this instrument, covering the flute, diapason, string and reed families. : ' ' ." : . -.. i -:- v:.x-.-.- - : - - - ; ' i T - ! - : ': . . ;-' - -rr , S - A - .1 j - - .
