Comment
on the
Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
HE.T wave sweeps Southern Ore
gon. People complain. "Terrible,
isn't It?" they will tell each other.
Never w It hotter at this time o!
the year.
Only a few days ago. these same
, people were complaining bitterly
about the cold, damp, backward
spring. By "these same people" Is
meant all of us. We were all doing
it.
WHAT on earth would we do with
out the weather?
It provides us with a topic of con
versation when he can't think of
anything else to say. thus saving
many an awkward situation. This
writer sometimes wonders what would
become of social contacts If we didn't
have the weather to get the conver
sation opened up.
And If we didn't have the weather
to complain about, we'd certainly be
. lost.
ANOTHER odd thing about the
weather:
This particular individual was go
ing along on Wednesday and think
ing nothing much about It until he
heard that the mercury had touched
100.
Before that time, the heat hadn't
been noticed; Immediately afterward,
it became oppressive.
MORAL: Don't look at the ther
mometer in hot weather. An
other moral: A lot of our troubles are
in our minds the heat, for example
When we don't know how hot it is.
we're happy; when we do. we get
uncomfortable. ,
M
MAYBE the warm wave Is a bit un
comfortable., but It's exceedlng-
ly good for what alls u. With plenty
of moisture In the ground, the crops
that had been held back by the cold,
late spring are booming along. One
can almost SEE things grow.
And a good crop here In the South
ern Oregon country Is gotng to help
a lot this year, because it looks now
as If a good crop might be worth
quite a little money.
UsrNBSS." 1 merchant said to
D Wis writer yesterday, "al
ly beginning to get better.
"People have a little more money
than they had a while back, and what
they have they are spending a little
more freely. They have more confi
dence In the future, and are not so
much afraid to let go of what money
they have In return for things they
need."
THAT Is to ss 'people are begin
ning to believe now taht they
will be able to get hold of more mop
ey to replace that which they spend
for what they need. A little while
aeb, they weren't at all sure of It.
The money In their pockets then
lacked like all the money In the
world. S- they felt they must r.s-r.g
onto It st any cost.
With returning confidence in the
future, people feel that It is again
txte to spend what they can afford
for. necessities.
That Is one reason why business Is
getting better.
A LITTLE bit later, when STILL
MORE money gets Into people's
pockets, and when confidence In the
future becomes still stronger, they
will begin to spend not only for nec
essities but for those things that we
call luxuries.
When that happens, business real
ly WILL be better. It takes free spend
ing to make business good.
npHERE S Just 'one thing that wor
1 rles me a little." this mer
chant continued: "Prices are going up
exceedingly fast. If they go up faster
than the earning capacity of our cus-
tomers, well be hurt."
THAT Is true.
We look upon ruing prices as
an Indication that business Is get
ting better, but If prices rise faster
than the ability of average people
pay these prices business WONT get
better.
It CANT. Business can be good only
as the great majority of all the peo
ple In this country have money
w.th which to buy what la produced
If prices KEEP ON rising fseter
thin wsaes. the return of prosperity
will be checked.
FOR the present.' "however, this Is
true:
prices rise, those who gt the
