SIGNS OK B ET T E R TIM ES
Som e signs of b e tte r tim es is set out in new s rep o rts
from NBA. A few a re listed below.
T he autom obile industry increased 45 percent in 1934
over 1933 and reach ed a $5,000.000.000 enterprise.
M ontgom ery W ard & G om pany r e t r i e d $9,302,023 net
profit for first 11 m onths in 1934.
O rders fo r electric equipm ent increased 26 percent.
O rders rep o rted by 78 m a n u fa c tu re rs inceased from $325.-
066.000 in 1933 to $410.000.000 in 1934.
An average gain of 16 percent in ad vertising is show n
in index figures com piled by P rin te rs Ink. Of th e to tal spent
for advertising, new spapers accounted for m ore th a n $500,-
000.000, m agazines about $110.OoO.000. radio ad vertising
m ore th a n $70.000,000. outdoor advertising about $40,000.-
000. an d farm pap ers $15,000.000.
S teel production clim bed upw ard from 44 U p ercen t to
49 percent of ingot capacity.
Dun & B rad stre et survey show s tra d e is best since 1931.
In predicting for 1935 this rep o rt says a s s u ra n ie is g< n-
erallv expressed th a t th e well co n stru c te d b ase on which
achievem ent now re sts provides for th e co n tin u an c e of pro
g ress on a less checkered course th a n it w as forced to fol
low- at tim es d u rin g 1934.
W e believe th a t th e bill calling for a change in th e d ate
of O regon's direct prim ary is a good step. S eptem ber and
O ctober would then he the cam paign m o n th s ra th e r th a n
from M ay to N ovem ber. People can tak e an in te re st in
can d id ates for tw o m onths and act intelligently but ca m
p aigning for a half year is too m uch.
T he Mucon joins th e S hen an d o ah and Akron a s the
navy's sacrifice to lig h ter th an a ir ex p erim entation. T his
$8,000,000 experim ent is very costly and probably will be
th e d e a th blow to such practice for a long tim e. We have
alw ays doubted th e value of th ese c ra fts in w ar even if
th ey could be n av ag ated successfully.
