DAWES tells the re porters In Washington that times are beginning to get better, thua Joining company with a large crew of big men who have aald the same thing. All of them, sad to say. had to eat their words later on. THIS writer, speaking for hlmseli alone, has more confidence In Dawes' opinions than In those that have gone before largely. In all probability, because of faith that Dawes wouldn't say it If he didn't believe It. ((w TNDER the Influence of the re construction finance corpo ration." he says, "bank failures have been checked. We. In our positions, are realizing that there Is a marked change in the situation. The banks are beginning to make loans." THAT. If true. Is EXCEEDINGLY significant. If the banks, through out the country, are beginning to make loans again, it la a algn that confidence is beginning to return. If confidence returns, business will Improve. PERHAPS youhave asked yoursell this question: "Why didn't busi ness begin to Improve as soon as the reconstruction finance corpora tion act was passed?" Did you ever notice that after a long drouth the first rain has very little effect? It settles the dust for a few hours, of course, but by the next day the ground seems as dry as ever. It is only after repeated rains have had time to sosk the earth thor oughly that the grass begins to grow again. THE reconstruction finance corpo ration act was the first rain alter a long financial drouth. Its effects COULDN'T be Immediate. Time has to be allowed for soaking up the parched ground of business. After It begins to get soaked up, the grass ought to begin to grow. PERHAPS you have heard often, as this writer haa. this statement: "Oh, the railroads and the big banks and big business generally will get all the reconstruction fi nance corporation money. It won't benefit the little fellow any." That isn't a fair statement. It wouldn't be made by an Intelligent person who took the time to think the situation out clearly. WHEN the railroads get reconstruc tion finance corporation money, they are enabled to make extensions and improvements and repairs to their property. Making extensions and repairs and Improvements CREATES JOBS. - WHEN the big banks get recon struction finance corporation money, they are enabled to extend credit to their customers, whereas If they HADN'T been able to get It they COULDN'T. Extension of needed credits to sound business concerns makes it possible for these concerns to csrry on their business on a more ex tensive scale, thus PROVIDING JOBS. I And so it Is with big business, which must have operating capital before it can extend Ita operations, thus providing employment. no, TOU SEE. the reconstruction flnsnce corporation. If It func tions as It Is Intended to function, really WILL help us little fellows after all. It will help to make possible the providing of Jobs tor those who need Jobs, snd sa more Jobs are provided for those who have no Jobs now. buying power will be Increased and those who have things to sell.

In the Reed case argument, the state contended that the alleged mis conduct of Mrs. Myrtle GeBauer, a Jury woman, In visiting the scene of the crime constituted no grounds for a new trial: that the element of surprise set forth by the defense was not grasped when defense failed to move for a continuance, when Roy Laymon gave his testimony; that the new evidence cited by the defense was "cumulative." and fiat diligence had not been undertaken In present ing it at the first trial, and that al leged errors of the court n Instruc tions were not shown. Attorney Gua Newbury, In argu ments for Reed, flayed Mrs. GeBauer for visits to the crime spot, and charged that "perjured evidence was submitted to keep an Innocent man in the penitentiary." .
