C, Sept. 5, 1930. Editor Franklin Press: I was asked bj a young man the other day to give the cause of what he calls hard times. He also wanted to know what to do this coming win ter. . My advice to him was to read history and political economy. One not versed in these two branches of knowledge can not understand the cause or causes of the present world wide depression of busienss. This is ' the third depression that the writer hasi .witnessed in his life-time. It is the first one that my young friend has ever experienced and he' did 'not realize that such things arc natural and are to be expected, and that we oldsters saw it coming and were as sure of it as we arc of night follow- ing day. . '"s fhe first periodic economic distur bance witnessed, by the writer com menced in 1873. He was only a boy at that time but fully appreciated the dire consequence and aputc sufterings caused by the shutting down of fac tories, furnaces and mines. Fortunate ly he hada wise father and intelli- , gent teachers to give him instruction and information. One wise and learn ed man took it for granted that a boy has a mind to be cultivated and. not crammed with undigested facts, and he taught boys many things that are now left over until the student peach es college, if they are' ever taught at all. Being reared on a god farm in one of the richest agrictultural sec tions of the world where the indus tries of lumbering, mining and manu facturing were carried on extensive ly, he lived, as it were, in a labora tory of economics under conditions that made it possible to study politic al economy objectively. In fact one of the topics .of the day was the business situation, and daily discus sions across line fences by farmers, at., stores, m,ills and all other meeting places pn such subjects as tariff and green-backs helped to sharpen the wits of the boys of that generation, and fortunate, indeed, was. the boy who had a. father or teacher who un- - O1930,R.J.ETMd Tatoco CoWiaitiHi-Sm, N, C, and follow false teachers. So acute was the situation that one small town ship with only two-thirds of the pres ent population of Highlands township had seventy-two papuers. The writ er's father was overseer of these poor and served without pay. He had a' tramp bed in his house where any hungry wandered called tramp might find rest and shelter. The county swarmed with men seeking jobs when theer were no jobs to be had. All towns had soup kitchens. One town of about 5,000 was fed. clothed and sheltered by a ' wealthy banker who believed in the teachings of Christ, But you will say this is ancient his tory, so let us come a little nearer to 'the present. ' The year of 1886 was one of the most active years the American iron trade had ever experienced; but we are not the only pebbles on the world's business beach, and things were going so well in some countries. Economic conditions in Spain and Portugal weer reported to be in a -deplorable condition. In October, 18 85, Alfred Wallace in London wrote: "The present depression of trade is remarkable, not so much for its in tensity as for its extent." In Novem ber,, 1885, the Linen Merchants' as sociation of Belfort stated: "The de pression began full ten years ago and still continues." Such meetings of the coming depression were heard from all countries. The writer spent the summer of 1888 on teh New Eng land coast and complaints of poor business were general. There were many failures in business Many blamed Harrison and believed Cleve land could fix things up. "Why don't Harrison do something?" was heard on every hand. Cleveland was elect- ed had times got worse. Times were so bad and.. are' so well remembered that we still speak of Cleveland hard times, Cleveland was not the cause of this world-wide, depression'"' and he could , not' stop it, .' but the party in power gets- the blame by the ignorant and unscrupulous politicians talae a y a nt age- of the chance tu-'proKt by their ignorance. , ..The Republicans got the big head andthought they were unbeatable and ran two candidates and .Wood row Wil son was elected, although his vote was less than Bryan's when the latter was defeated. At this time thert 'were signs of depression.;, all over, the world and all students of economics saw poor, business in the offing. ... As a precaution we lowered our tariff hop ing to improve , nutters, but things grew worse and the writer had to sell apples at three bushels for a dollar and great heaps rattled on piles in the orchard. Mr. Wilson being an educator and not an economist " said it was psychological and not real." -No (Continued on page 6, col. 2) V
