THE LIFE ABOUT IT
NEW SPIRIT IN
Composed by four of America s
ace aongsmlihs. the tuneful melo
dies in "Moonlight and Pretzel*,"!
Universal's backstage musical ro­
mance starting Sunday at the Colo
nial theater, reflects the spirit of
the times in a manner unique for
screen musical comedy. At least
three of the numbers in th escore
may truly be said to be descriptive
of the present American scene. In
"Moonlight and Pretsels," more
than In any other recent screen
musicals, the composers have fol­
lowed the precept of the fellow
who said "Let me but write the
songs of a nation and I care not
who makes its laws."
"Dusty Shoes." by Jay Gorney
and K. Y. Harburg, is a dramatic
cavalcade of American life from
1928 to 1933. The highlights de­
picted in song and action are the
boom year of 1928. the stock mar
ket crash of 1929. the depression
years of 1930-32 inclusive, the elec­
tion of Roosevelt and the inspiring
leadership of the president.
•Moonlight and Pretsels." the
title song of the picture and also a
Gomey-Harburg number, tells a
lyrical story of peace and content­
ment since the legalisation of beer.
It is the 1933 model drinking song
Herman Hupfeld has written a
song dramatising the new spirit of
the people In regard to work. It Is
called “I Gotta Get Up and Go to
Work" and depicts various types
rising in the morning and preparing
for their Jobs in offices, factories,
and stores a cfceer on their lips
and new hope in their hearts.

"If a farm district bank’s note his­
tory shows that its loans rise and
fall with the normal cycle of produc­
tion and marketing of the products
of the region. It may ba taken as
an index of economic good health
for the locality," he says. "But If.
over a period, the loan volume
shows a dwindling trend It may
mean a region that is losing ground,
—becoming exhausted or being
robbed of butiueee by another com­
munity. Or it a large proportion of
the loane are aot paid at maturity
but are chronically reuewed. or If
stocks or bonds or real estate have
to be taken as additional security,
these too have economic signlfl-
cancaa, reflecting perhaps crop fail­

bere also signs that reflect growing
unfavorable conditions, such as ex­
cessive Ioan renewals, over-enthusi­

circumstances. Similar conditions
apply to banks engaged In Snanclng

"The foregoing Is merely sugges­
tive of the Infinite aspects ot the
life outwardly surrounding the
banks which form and control tbolr
Internal conditions. Although these
facts seem obvious enough, the dis­
cussion* and criticisms that have
raged about the banks often appear
to set tbsm apart as somehow sep­
arata from the lives of our people,
casting forth a malignant Influence
upon agriculture, Industry and
trade from forces generated wholly
