( business in general is "spotty," the country is pretty well off.
5 Thero are two perils indicated. One is the fear of what
politics may do to business, in a presidential campaign year,
i The other is what stock, market declines may do to it. Itoth

l; There is no reason why the political situation should dc
' press business. '. . '
! ' Stocks may still be ttxi hijfh. If they declined further, the
only bad effect would be psychological it might depress the
. spirits of those who imagine that business prosperity or de
pression can be made in the stock market. That great in
vestment institution, generally speaking, merely registers'
' conditions ; it doesn't make them.
