', College Women Hear Review of Interesting Book College Women's club met Satur day afernoon at the home of Mr. George Canode. Mrs. F. G. Sweden burg presided during the business meeting. Mrs. P. Q. Wagner Intro duced Mre Edwin b Knapp, who re viewed "A New Deal," by Stuart Chat. ; The review brought out the fol lowing questions, which are consid ered by the author: "Why ia purchasing power Inade quate, why do wo western people fall to gain the full benefits of an economy of abundance; why must we go through such scarifying per iods of mental panto and physical deprivation as the present? How can they be avoided? The author traces the development through the nineteenth oentury of the system of lalssea-falre or free competition, and the carrying over Into thl century of a concept of eoonomles entirely at variance with hi definition of what an eco nomic system la for. The author maintains that until these In control realise that it U to provide a means, without exces sive waste and loss whereby those who live under It may eat, govern ment cannot be carried on without recurrence of the present conditions. He offers suggestions which he frankly admits might not work out a he now believe they would. A peaceful and workable, not rad ical chango in the present plan, one which provides a planning board of scientific, not commercial Interest, with oolleotlvlam, rather than laissez faire, or Individualism, would work out methods for a managed cur rency, a drastic redistribution of the natepnal lnoomo through Income and Inheritance tax, and a huge program of publlo work It would neoessarlly Involve con trol of investments, both private and foreign, publlo worts, higher res! wages, the elimination of tariff bar riers, and a drastic cutb of specu lation. Important functions of the col lective system of economle control would be those of an Industrial bud get of national requirement and Industrial capacity to meet them, shortening of the work week, un employment Insurance, the promo tion of Industrial decentralisation, long period budgeting, and national and regional planning boards to co ordinate. While permitting nice profit o Industrialists, he is frankly opposed to capitalism and would control through many avenue the amount of such capital. The author refuse the possible solution of economta control through revolution or big business.
