[COMIC OUTLOOK
BRIGHT mm
SAYS SEC. HOOVER
WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 18 —
“The odds are favorable to 1924,”
says a statement of Herbert Hoover,
secretary of commerce, in a review
of conditions during the past years
and a discussion of economic pros
pects for this year.
“Our country has exhibited extra
ordinary strength and progress,” his
statement says in conclusion. “The
basis of healthy activity lies in bal
anced budgets, stable currency, high
production, accompanied bv propor
tionate consumption and savings with
an absence of speculative extravag
ance and inflation. These things we
have' in the United States ”
Not only is “the economic outlook
in our own country for this year
bright,” says Mr. Hoover, "but in gen
eral the world situation is hopeful.”
“The German collapse has in less
degree affected every part of the
world. The decreased consuming po
wer of Germany and of the other
states most affected has contributed
to the low price levels of tood prod
uction power of Germany and of the
other food exporting countries. The
decrease in her coal and steel produc
tion at first gave some stimulous to
the production of other countries, but
this is now offset by decreased buy
ing power of the depressed area tor
other commodities. One other effect
of imieortance has been the undoubt
ful substantial flight of capital from
| many of the states in this area of de
pression to the United States, result
ing in further excessive accumulation
of gold here. The economic world
has not yet felt the full impact of the
occupation of the Ruhr. Were it no!
for the hope inspired by the initia
tion of negotiations for settlement ol
the German problem the situation
would be most unpromising for the
future.
“Even with settlement accomplish
ed there will arise considerable prob
lems in readjustment of trade thri
re-entry of German coal and steel in
to markets and thru the possible (ant
to be hoped) return of capital which
has sought refuge in the United St at
es from many parts of Europe. Dur
ing the whole year past the events o
i the depression area have at least ser
i ved to inspire caution in the rest ol
: the world and has contributed to tin
: absence of speculation and, therefore
to their fundamental stability. If it
be possible to reconstruct Germany’s
finances during the forthcoming yeai
; and to secure such assistance tc
;! France as will enable the stabilizator
of the franc, the world will have en
tered into a period of great hope am
much promise of prosperity. Full con
summation cannot, of course, be ac
complished without a large measure
of disarmament in Europe, for the ar
mies today maintained by 170 millior
people there are upon a scale which
if repeated in the Western Hemis
phere, would mean 3,000 000 men un
der arms—a strain that would havt
made recuperation almost impossibh
on this side of the Atlantic, even witl
the economic strength which thii
Hemisphere possesses.”

WASHINGTON, Jan 18.—In a res-!
olution introduced by Senator Ladd
yesterday afternoon, Congress is ask
ed to investigate the activities of Gov.
Leonard Wood, in relation to the
Philippine government, its le islature,
banks, railways, sugar control and the

transactions by Wood or his sons who
are associated with him.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 18.—Senator
Dill, Democrat of Washington state
and junior leader got into the lime
light twice yesterday afternoon, but
in a way which may send him to pol
itical oblivion, as he introduced a bill
to change the name of Mount Rainier
to Mount Tacoma and followed that
up by a speech in the Senate urging
that congressional action should be
taken to prevent the Shenandoah, be
cause of her run away flight, from
j being sent on the North Pole trip. He
j being sent on theNorth Pole trip. He
strongly urged the senate naval af
fairs committee to prohibit the use of
j further appropriations to pay for ex~
| perimental dirigible flights.
LAKEHURST, N. J., Jan. IS.—Cap
lain Heines, the German Zeppelin ex
pert declared that the flight of the
dirigible Shenandoah gave absolute
proof that the ship could complete the
North Pole flight. Commander Mc
Creary received, from President Cool
idge and many others, messages oi
; congratulations of the officers and
; men in the action they took in saving
the ship when she broke her mooring
yesterday and went on a rampage up
the Atlantic coast as far as Staten is
land before she was put under con
trol. McCreary said “ I consider the
work of the crew in making the re-!
markable landing with the nose of the
I slliP collapsed and her rear rudder de
! stroyed, a most remarkable feat in
1 the history of aviation ”
__
NEW \ ORK, Jan. IS.—The fate of
; the French airship Dixmude forecasts
j the end of dirigible building, in the o
! pinion of General G. A. L. Dumont,
i military attache of the French embas
| sy at W ashington, who arrived today
j on the Rochambeau.
| “It has been my observation that all
of these dirigibles are sooner or lat
er lost,” he said.
‘‘France had her Dixmude just as
America had her Roma. The history
of the new Shenandoah will end in
the same way. It is inevitable. 1 do
not think that a dirigible will ever be
; built that will not meet with the
same end.”
LAKEHURST, Jan. 18.—The Shen
andoah was stored up today for re
pairs that will fit her for the flight
for theNorth Pole.
