so easily foretell how far the spring

Hence, periods of prosperity or ac

cast than periods of depression or
reaction.

son, in a at:itenur.;t issued today.
"Many executive;, think they have

that their fortune-.- are made. These

lead. 1 hough mot so prompt as the
security markets, building is some
what in the van as compared with

lin 'thf busmen rvHo' :ij (hp IjiIfsi 1 e. . j
up the business cyclo as the latest
catch-phrase, are simply playing
with edged tools and are going to
get badly cut.
"It is astounding how the public
has taken up the idea. From boot
black stands to international confer
ences, the latest fad is the business
cycle. H it were merely talk, littlo
harm would be done. But many
business man, bankers, investors, and
government officials are making real
commitments on the basis c an
imaginary cycle. It is high time tha1
somebody get up in meeting and do
some plain talk'jr-g, and tell people
that we are all sitting around a pow
der keg, if we continue to cherish
this delusion of a fixed cycle.
"Strictly speaking, there is no
such thing as a business, cycle,' con
tinued Mr. Babson. "It is a serious
blunder to assume that there will be
three years ( or other .fixed inter
val) of over-expansion and then
three years of depression, followed
by another threo years of over-expansion
and another three years of
depression. To nine people out of
ten this is what the business cycle
of booms and bumps, each lasting
the same number of years. There is
absolutely nothing in this idea, and
any executive who nttemptsto base
his plans thereon will probably ruin
the enterpri.se for which he is re
try, the manufacturing centers tend
to leadj and the regions of produc
tion of raw materials tend to lag.
Comparing the physical quantity of
business with its dollar value, quan
tity advances or declines before val
ue. . In a store, the number of sales'
slips (physical quantity) tends to
decline before the cash register read
ing (amount of sales in dollars).
In a construction industry, the num
ber of permits tends to decline be
fore their value in dollars.
"Cut the thing of real importance
is not merely to know this sequence
which is a fairly simple proposi
tion but also to know how fast
the period of depression or over
expansion is being run off. For ex
ample, early in 1920 the stock mar
ket turned down. The retailer who
noticed this reversal and attempted
to estimate when the lightning
would strike his own business would
have been at a loss to set the date.
But presently when general business
sank below par and -began to sweep
out an area of depression, then the
retailer wsa able to forecast. Know
ing how much depression was due
seems to mean, a periodic procession amj how fast it wa3 boinjf Worked
off, and knowing also his relative
position in the cycle, the retailer
could estimate vsry closely when his

Of The Narcotic Evil i

by Federal 1'rohlhllion Commissioner
H. A. Haynes. at Salem, Oregon, bo
fore the joint session of the legisla
ture on January 1 U, lit 2 3,
SALKM, Ore., Jan. ID "This splen
did state has been u pioneer in ad
vancing niuny lent urea of new legis
lation, and legislators of this state
have put into eoncreto form much of
such legislation when still untried in
other parts of the country.," said l'Vd
eral Prohibition Commissioner It. A.
Haynes today before the Joint Hea
wion of the legislature. "It was in this
grout Pacific Northwest. I recall, that
the initiative and the referendum ideas
first eryslalized into legislation, end
while there may yet be. in the minds
of some, some doubt as to the maxim
um good derived from such proced
ure, yet at the same time it must be
admitted thnt these legislative, pro
through propaganda of un-American
prejudice.
"No part of our Constitution Ih the
ductum of iugs. It represents the
wisuoin, loieaignt ana discretion oi
the American people, articulating
through a legislative system second to
none, on earth. The Klghtccnlh am
endment is an integral part of this
Constitution. It is a product of evolu
tion us are all other great reforms.
"An long as human nut ure is aa It

light of our experience with oilier
laws, the success attained in the en
forcement of this or any law. In the

"It Is said that a man's life is Judg
ed by Its Crisis.. It is the 'Crisis that
makes for his success or failure. What
Is true of the Individual Is equally
true of a generation of people, or of
a nation which is but an aggregation
will sanction nml who participate in
the illegal traffic in intoxicating
liquor wthout any seeming shock to
their consciences. It is not to be won
dered at thut bootleggers and crimin
als will violate the law for the sake
of possible illegal gains, but it is diffi
cult to understand how prominent
'I, ... ' linen, and men high in the various
walks of public and private life h
to the fact thut this generation of
Americans is facing that Crisis Hour.
We are at the testing time when ev
ery citizen must stand up and be
counted for or against the Constitu
tion, and the laws of the land, not
alone as revealed In his conviction and
preachment, but as revealed by his
acts und personal conduct, ,
"As a people, we havo nothing to
fear from without. The enemy that
is to be feared is the subtle one that.
under the guise of mock-patrlotismW
shammed personal liberty, nonob
servanee of the law, etc,, creeps up
unawares and threatens to undermlno
the very fundamentals which have
been responsible for our great growth
us a nation and our marvelous pros
perity and happiness as a people.
"Wo cannot permit the open vlola
iion of any specific law without at
the same time fostering the spirit of
anarchy that will eventually hold all

"It is not enough that a man shall
obey the law und enjoy the privileges!
and bli'snlngs secured to him under)
come parties to such violations and
create a demand for their continuanc
by purchasing illegally secured con
traband.
"Kor the first time in the history
of the country, has concurrent power
been written into the Constitution.
That is to say, Section If of the Eight
eenth Amendment divides the respon
sibility. Practically all of the states
have enacted appropriate legislation
to this end, and It is certainly most
desirable that those states which have
not enacted such legislation should
speedily take that step.
"The greatest obstacle to the effec

OTTAWA, Jan. 5.: (By Mail),'
The bleak territory of Labrador, lonK
a no man's land between the Do
mioion of Canada and the island
colony of Newfoundland, will become
Canadian soil if Newfoundland re
ceives her price. This became known
when negotiations between the two
countries on the subject of Labra
dor were reopened hero recently.
Representatives of Canada and New
foundland are busily enraged search
ing the archives and studying old
maps, preparing to argue the own
ership of Labrador before the Privy
Council in- London some time this
year.
The latest proposal, It became
known, is that Canada assume the
Newfoundland national debt of $50,
000,000, mid take title to Labrador.
This suggestion, it was understood,
was put forward by Sir Patrick Ma
grain, representing the Old Colony
Canadian representatives, while ex
pressing willingness to pay cash for
the territory, set its value at $10,
000,000. Should an agreement be
reached the pending litigation be
fore the Privy Council, the final
court of appeal in the British Em
pire, would be dropped.
For 15 years negotiations have
been going on between the Canadian
and Newfoundland governments to
settle the Labrador boundary diffi
culty. Newfoundland, maintaining
jurisdiction over the Labrador coast,
has contended that its bone of in
fluence runs well into the interior,
taking up a large area that the maps
allot to the Province of Quebec. The
Canadian authorities concede to New
foundland only a narrow .strip of the
Labrador littoral, which is necessary
to the fisheries industry of the island
colony. For more than a century
the right of Newfoundland to this
shore line has been conceded.
While the dispute has been gointr
on a largo part of Labrador has
been In doubt as to whether it owes
allegiance to Ottawa or St. John's,
N. F., but as the country affected
is inhubited only by aborigines there
has been no protest from the resi
dents. Of Into years the Labrador
question has assumed added impor
tance because of reported, rich dis
coveries of minerals, timber and wa
ter Powers in the territory. Last fall
prospectors reported finding "pay
dirt" in the rivers flowing into the
Atlantic.
Charles J. Doherty, who was min
ister of justice in the Borden and
Muighen administrations, is acting
for tho Canadian government in the
Labrador case.
