BUSINESS' fJEW OUTLOOK PPUNE PICWS 'They run in cycles." That was the way the old-time businCss man used tt speak of periods Of industrial depres sion. ;it was taken for granted that any period Of prosper ity hjd to be followed by hard times; In which factories would' be idle, men would be out of work and dividends would" dwindle. But a new idea is coming to the froilt now. Edward A. Filt'iie, Boston merchant, voices it in the cur rent isue 6f Forbes' Magazine.' 'ind times and unemployment are largely prevent able,' she writes. "They are natural results of the incred ible waste that still exists in production and distribution, whiclS in turn is due to faulty economic and business think ing.":. 'x lJi'Osperity( Mr. Filone says comes wlien the masses of people have good buying power; that is, when they enjoy high wages and salaries, and when the things they wish to buy are priced low. Mass production, he points out, has madesboth of these situations prevail. Yet, in spite of this, there Is a good deal of unemployment. We are prosperous, yet a j;ood mhny people are out of work. What is the rea son fcjr it? Some people blame mass production itself, which has increased each worker's output so much that fewer men are irjeded to produce goods. Mr. Fileno does not believe this. ' ' .a. '"flie truth seethS to be," he writes, ''that, to an im portant degree, it is due lb the fact that there is no enough mds8productibri and mass distribution. The businesses that ijre still being rim id the old way turn out products that cost fijo much and therefore cannot be sold iii cbmpetition wilhiOse.niade aiid sold by mass methods. The inefficient employers and distributors are forced out of business. Un enipioyhieitt results." Mr. Flleiie 16 cltiito hopeful about.it. He makes the flat prediction that "employment for every one is! cbmihg because it is clear that scientific mass pro duction cannot live unless the masses can buy freely the gobds',S0 produced. It is obvious that the jmusses must be fully employed in Order that ally industry shall flourish per . manently.'.' ' " , , This, reallj is a startlingly new viewpoint. Business leader's used to think a certain amoiint .of unemployment a good, thing. It kept wages down; and lessened the chances of strikes. Now they are beginning to see that the work man's fate affects them directly. In a quite unpredictable fashion it is becoming evident thnt the rich man is his broth er's keeper; It seems odd lb think that cold, ' dollars-and-cctils .business may bring the world . closer -to brotherhood and equality than several centuries of preaching and philo sophising. But this is an' ago of hew things. o Overland gbvefrimelit mail service between Hoseburg and Cobs Bay, wlileh ceased yciirS ago. with tlio establish meht oi the Southern Pacific! railway between Eugene and Powers, May, be reliewed. According to it receht editorial in tlio Coos Bay Times, altered train service hiis resulted in tt Sorltius delay in tlio arrival of iiirtii brlgiiiittllig at, points south of Eugene and as a remedy for the situation Coos Bay residents rire agitating a proposition, fbr direct hinil stage connection with Hbseburg, which, it is figured, would el'fcl-l a Unto saving of eighteen hours. Such a difference in time certainly gives weight to the demand for better accomliiodittioii. That it must come sooner oi' later, if agita tion vrsists, is inevitable in this day of business rapidity and related traffic regulations. Coos Bay and its tributaries would-not nlone be the gainier from speedier mail service. , Uosoburg would benefit as well from the improved coimec tion,.,so Would numerous other cities having business rela tions with Coos and Curry counties. And It would be a welcome sight to Uoseburg to oiice more see mail for those regions leaving this city by singe, tlohe forever, iif coili-sc, are the horse-drawn vehicles that conveyed the mails before rallwny- service was stalled from Eugene, but Hie absence of olden-day flavor would be more than made up by the sati.sr.ving relish of modern transportation In the form of motor stages better suited to the iieeds of preseiil-dny com merce.'. In view Of the recent annouiieemoiit that the South ern Pacific company had decided to establish a stage line ijouveon Koseolirg and Coos I!ay, it is probable that such a jntu wouio iniiispin-i. uie mans m the event or a change rrom the rail service. However, no petition for such a change has so far bceh seiit to Washington, but when such a step is made IJosebilrg will be glatl to volte an endorsement if it will toUht for anything In the way of getting results. Now that we've Heard Herb Hoover Accept the Nomination we Hope Al Smith Decides to do Likewise and-' Thus make a Race out of it. 4 I Miieti h.n tntniriY.'

ROSEBURG NEWS-REVIEW . POEM FOR TH DAY by LOUIS ALBERT BANKS tODAV'S DUTY ' Let's do the duty of the hour. And do it with our utmost power; And if it seem a little thing, Let's make devotion fairly sing, Put all our strength into the task; About the future let's not ask. For that's the way to build a man Along the simple gospel plan. Why fret at all about to-morrow? Why give ourselves that needless sorrow? For if today we do our best, i ' It fits us for tomorrow's test. li Is the spirit of the deed . ' To which out Ciod will give most heed. So let this hour have all force, And we shall speed along our course. , And if tomorrow's surf shall rise, This work well done. we'll gladly prize; 'Twill fit us for tomorrow's load, Give hopeful spirit on the road; ' . The past will be our stepping stone . To lift us to a higher zone; 'Twill build a solid self-respect Where all good things we may expect. Our future hinges oti to-dny, For God has made the world that way; It is the earnest girl or boy s Who finds at last unfading joy; It is the faithful middle age That ripens into wisdom sage; li is tne man with grit to plod Who wins the paradise, of God.

They walked around the Utile tents, and Clowny said, "This is immense. 1 know we're going to i like it. Will thero be a show to- j day?" 'Oh, no, we're through," the trainer said, "In this small town. We move ahead to some place cIbc. We'll pack up now and then o on our way." So, down the small tents came, kerDop. The TInles stood and watched them drop, and then they fihouledj "Ve will hflp. Now tell us what to do." "Just carry tilings down to oilf train. Your help. I'm sure, won't be in vain," exclaimed the trainer. "I will give you food when you are thrdugh." "That's fair enough," one Tiny cried. And all of them turned in and tried to do their share of working. They found li lots of fun. They carried poles and big tent stakes, till Clowny cried, "My poor back aches." "Cheer .up," replied the trainer. " 'Twon't be long till we are done." At last the circus train was packed, and everything was nicely stacked. The trainer pointed to a car, and said, "That's where you'll sleep." The Tlnymltes all climbed aboard, and off the circus engine V r - ' gCJS inoet. int.
