Says Buslntas Slump Psychological,
Hepreanntutlvea of "big business
heard from President Wilson the ad
ministration's view of an attitude to
ward the business of the country,
While expressing an eurm-sl desire
to "serve and not to hinder or Injure1
the president suld It was evident that
such a policy as the democratic party
wus nnw pursuing "was uliHolulely
liocpssury to satlHfy the conscience of
the country ond its pereepilon of Urn
prevailing conditions of business." lie
said uncertainty wus tho worst thing
of nil for buslneca.
This waa his answer to manufactur
er who came to the White House
niS.inK that all legislation affecting
business except the trade commission
bill bo temporarily withheld.
The president also suld that, whllo
he wus aware of the present depres
sion In business, there was abundant
evidence that It wus purely psycholo
gical, and thut there wus no material
condition or substantial reason why
the biiHlnoss of the country should not
be In the most prosperous and expand
Ing condition.
