WASHINGTON, Feb. 7. Economic
eoothAayera are getting a little wor
ried now, not because business may
Co bad, but because It may get too
good. ,
They are thinking largely In terms
of the stock market. Wall Strecters
'generally dash from fits of despair
lnto'ecstacy and back again without
stopping anywhere between.
The current Improvement In gen
eral business may cause a somewhat
legitimate baby boom during the next
60 days. It will assume a dangerous
aspect If the speculators or the public
1 or both try to make a full grown
T man out of It Immediately.
For that reason you may expect
Mr. Roosevelt to throw a little cold
water on the boomlet boys shortly.
Purpose.
The Idea la to keep a close check
on the spring uprush and save as
much of It as possible for the sum
mer sllpoff. If that can be done,
we will walk on firm ground atralght
up bill. If not, the Inevitable reac
tions from time to time will be
abrupt. .
Picture.
We will probably get a stimulation
In industrial production which will
tarry us up to an Index of possibly
85 per cent of normal (1923-25) In
March or April. It might even hit a
high of 85 In the fall, although that
' u a long way to look ahead In these
days.
Such a strong production will cause
considerable re-employment, but not
enough to take caro or the four mil
lions now getting money from the
Civilian Works administration. There
fore, Mr. Roosevelt's estlmato that he
will quit handing out such' money
May 1 is undoubtedly too optimistic.
V He may get it down to where he. will
have to care for only two millions
at that time. But the chances are
that the system will have to be con
tinued in one form or another until
rter the November congressional
elections. Congressmen need those
votes.

PARIS, Feb. 7. (fp) Four more
persons died in mob violence today
as Premier Daladier resigned . and
President Lebrun called a former
president, Gaston Doumergue, to
guide France through one of the
most alarming crises In her history.
The four deaths today brought the
official list of dead to 10 persons,
the government announcing that six
were killed last night. One of yes
terday's dead was. a woman.
Hospitals today held-183 of the riot
Injured; 283 more were treated In
hospitals, then sent home.
Lebrun told Doumergue to conic
back from hi retirement tn the south
of France, and form a new cabinet.
Doumergue accepted the charge afteM
an argument.
Doumergue indicated he believed
he could have a government organis
ed within 12 hours after he reaches
the capital tomorrow from his coun
try home.
Announcement a new government
was in progress of formation, how
ever, served in no way to modify the
anger of crowds which paraded the
streets and boulevards. Despite polite
and military orders, they continued
throughout the day in their wild
demonstrations.
The police won qne victory In the
Place de la Concorde, bloodiest spot
of yesterday's rioting, when they
overcame pftcked hundreds of men
who held'thoir ground throughout the
day against depeated charges of mo

dinary policemen.
The police finally cleared the Place
de la Concorde and pushed the fight
ing rioters back toward the Meac

The list of injured, scflously and
slightly, gained steadily throughout
the day, and as night drew in. private
cars were impressed Into duty as am

The horses of the guards, many of
them riderless, plunged madly through
the confusion of the Place ae la

Hallways and corners of the build

were packed by persons seeking shel

The apparent hostility of the
crowds increased steadily.
The courtyard of the Marine mln

Mounted troops and mobile guards

STATE BUSINESS
HALTED WAITING
E
SALEM, Feb. 7. (& Death Of Hal
E. Hosa early yesterday not only re
moved the head of one of the major
departments .of the state but tem
porarily paralyzed the activities of
virtually every other department de
pendent upon the secretary of state's
activities to further official business.
The motor vehicle department, the
issuance of warrants, filings of can
didates for office, supplying official
Information to the public and filing
of any records were at a standstill
and will remain In that manner until
the appointment of the successor to
Hons. Mall to the secretary of state
remained unopened pending swearing
In of a new secretary of state.
The appointment to the office la
vested with the governor, who an
nounced today he would not name a
successor until after the funeral of
Hoss, scheduled for 2 o'clock tomor
row afternoon. The appointee would
serve until an elected official is nam-,
ed in the November general election.
The elective official would serve the
remainder of the term, or until Janu
ary 1, 1B37. '
While it was known the governor
had under consideration appointment
of Hoss' sucessor, no indications were
given out as to whom he would name.
Several candidates have been men
tioned and it was understood large
number sought the office.
Earl W. Snell. speaker of the house
of representatives, has been the mott
prominently mentioned for the posi
tion. It was understood he planned
to seek the election in 1936, and prob
ably will be a candidate this year
since the death of Hoss vacated the
office. Snell is a popular Legion
member and would represent eastern
Oregon on the state board of control,
should his appointment be favored.
Two other candidates had been
mentioned, both from Portland. They
are Tom Mahoney, formerly a mem
ber of the state legislature, and
George L. Baker, former mayor of
Portland. Both the governor and state
treasurer are from Portland, and the
naming of another Portland man to
the board of control might court dis
favor on the part of the up-state, in
dicating further strength toward
Snell's appointment.
Good news was received in Med ford
today in a wire from Senator Fred
erick Btelwer, announcing that the
application of the Rogue River Val
ley Irrigation district for a loan had
been approved by the reconstruction
finance corporation.
The wire was received by Attorney
Harry Skyrman. It did not state how
much monev would be allowed the
I tilfttrlrt. announrlnir that rletalli
would follow. The Oregon delega
tion has been very helpful to this
section In Its efforts to gain Irriga
tion loans, Mr. Skyrman stated this
afternoon, reporting receipt of the
wire.

VIEWS ON HOUR'S
MAIN QUESTIONS
Reduction of Interest On
Debts Necessary Is Belief
Wants Deep Probe of
War Department Scandal
WASHINGTON, Feb. 7. (AP) A
delineation of President Roosevelt's
attitude on questions of the hour
brought out at the White House to
day that he favors a broad policy of
reduction of Interest rates on the out
standing obligations of industry, for
eign governments and all ottwr forms
of debts. -
After holding his regular press con
ference. the president devoted atten
tion to a statement of policy as to
control of sugar production involv
ing relations with Cuba in the ex
pectation of Issuing it a while later.
Wants Deep Probe.
More immediate steps were in con
nection with the reports to him. of
irregularities on war department con
tracts, which he had up with At
torney General Cummlngs and learned
that the department of Justice already
was at work on the case. The presi
dent told the attorney general to go
the limit.
Complaints lfad beep heard from
three or four sources.
Incidentally, it became known there
Is an administration feeling that As
sistant Secretary Woodring of the
war department has some explain
ing to do about a recent article he
wrote In regard to the Civilian Con
servation corps.
'CCC Not Military.
Mr. Roosevelt has not read the ar
ticle, but made clear he regards the
CCC as not a military unit. The
Woodring article referred to It as a
military unit.
It Is understood Stephen Early, a
secretary of the president, is going to
talk with the assistant secretary of
war about this Incident.
It so happens Mr. Woodring also
Is in charge of the awarding of con
tracts.
The president's sugar statement will
announce the policy of controlling
sugar Imports and propose domestic
control under the agricultural adjust
ment act.
Legislation will be asked to make
the sweet a basic commodity legally
so a processing tax can be levied.
No Proposals mated.
Aside from this subject It appears
unlikely that the president will have
anything further to propose In the
way of congressional action this week
He expects congress to enact stock
exchange control legislation at this
session as a fulfillment of the Demo
cratic platform.
Mr. Roosevelt expecta soon to dis
cuss this subject with congressional
leaders. A bill to license the stock
exchange and to bar pool operations
is being prepared at the capltol.
