This depression will not be over till
wealth of its many kinds believe that
"the bottom has been reached°and that
things have become adjusted to a work
able condition.This willonly be delay
ed by elreryohe jumping tip and down &
yelling to his neighbor"Good times
are here.^.VJe would like to see peo
ple admit what they know is true..
Times are tough and will probably get
worse before they get better.The pre
sent condition was induced by the
spree we went on when we spent money
wf cleaned up on the rest of the world,
during and after the war.It was caue<p
ed largely by the gambling that ent-‘
ered into all business and particular
ly the speculation in stocks,and now
we are depressed because we cannot
have as much as we- came to think "we
are entitled tow.Wetve blown in our
wad and are sick at heart.Ahd we come
to,after our gambling spree,realizing
that wages and salaries are all outdf
joint with production,and the ownCrsh
ip of wealth is more out of joint,and
unless something drastic*is done ,which
we know will not be done,it is going
to take a long time yet to get the ap
ples and marbles divided up so that we
can all eat and play.The boosters say
that things will improve next week.Th
optimists think that they will improve
next year.And the hard-headed man who
sees and thinks,says confidently that
they will improve sometime in the next
five years.
NOTICE '« All automobiles must have a
license this year .The tj.3 .Commissioner
at Ciiitina issues them.No car has a
right to run without one.
