Improvement.
That Is why the stock market has
been stronger recently. There will be
a July recession. There always Is. It
will be no shock to sentiment. Pros
pects for fall are fairly good. You
can expect increased activity begin
ning September and carrying through
probably until November,
The spring peak may be exceeded,
but not by a very great margin.
The main thing is, Mr. Roosevelt's
pockets are bulging with money The
sum he has Is so vast that It cannot
be accurately calculated, but It la
somewhat near ten billions. This in
cludes the f iv billions he can use
out of the RPO, the remainder of the
public work funds, drought relief,
AAA funds, eto.
He will not spend all this money
unless an unexpected emergency
arises, but his economic calculators
are figuring now on putting out moro
than two billions before tho first of
the-year. How much they spend will
of course, depend on economic re
quirements. At any rate, ha Is well fortified to
meet any possible demands.
Mr. Roosevelt Is playing the John
Maynard Keynes game. That is, he
is quietly accumulating from con
gress this session authority to spend
these very great sums with a view to
using them to balance the business
situation. He calls it "priming the
pump."
Unquestionably, his rate of expen
diture will Increase during July and
August. His treasury Is in good shape.
His only worry will be to balance the
budget during the fiscal year begin
ning July 1, 1935. His prospects of do
ing that are not very good, but that
Is a long way off.
There la no prospect at all that he
will have to Inflate for money to
carry his expenditures during the
next six months.
No one in authority expects very
much out of the home repair and
modernization plan this year. Insid
ers are not saying so publicly, but
they have their eyes set on stimulat
ing new construction next year, us
ing this means to supplant the pub
lic works program, which will then
be about played out.
Prices of manufactured goods gen
erally will probably ease off In rela
tion to other prices, ,:hlch may help
to spread a larger volume of con
sumption. There will be labor troubles and
plenty of them, but no more than
we are now having.
The president is really serious about
getting the war debt paid In goods.
His advisers on that subject privately
believe that Is the only way they can
be paid. They have a scheme already
worked out, but it cannot be offered
publicly now In view of the British
attitude.
This schema would have the debtor
1 governments purchase from their own
producers or manufacturers such
goods as rubber, tin, potash, per
fumes. These goods would then be
shipped to the United States govern
ment which, in turn, would sell them
to American Importers and credit the
money received to the debtor's ac
count. No cash would be involved.
There win be much Jockeying back
and forth during the next six months
on this subject, but. In the end, you
may see a final agreement along these
lines.
World statesmen saved their faces
at the Geneva disarmament confer
ence, but not much else.
Instead of admitting they could
not get anywhere, they appointed
committees to "study the situation."
The principal ministers then went
home and left the committees to sub
ordinates. There will not be any disarmament
any time soon. The world is not ready
for It.
The Democrats are arranging to
make big use of Mr. Roosevelt's mes
sage on social trends for the fall cam
paign. They admit frankly that it
waa a congressional campaign docu
ment and was so Intended.
The Republican political strategy Is
to bear down heavily on Mr. Roose
velt's expenditures. They know It u
t hard Issue to get over to the people.
The average man pays very little at
tention to government figures, even
when he pays his Income tax.
Their publicity men are trying to
work out some plan to popularize the
figures.

political master minds la that the Re

SLATED BY LAW
TO ASSUME JOB
Resigning Official Says Re
cently Acquired Duties As
State Masonic Master
Will Require Absences
Ezra M. Wilson, mayor of Medford,
announced this morning that he
would submit his resignation, effect
ive, July 1, at the regular meeting of
the city council tonight.
Mayor Wilson gave as his reason
that his recently acquired duties as
grand master of the Masonic lodges
in Oregon would require frequent
absences from the city and bis pri
vate business would require the re
mainder of his time, necessitating the
relinquishment of the mayorship.
The mayoralty will automatically
fall upon Councilman George Porter,
chairman of the finance committee.
Mayor Wilson has served the city
for six years two years as council
man and four years as mayor. He
was twice elected mayor, the first
time by a majority of 14 votes over
Earl H. Fehl when the latter waa
riding on a wave of popularity among
local voters.
Mayor Wilson stated this morning
that his tenure of office had been
pleasant.
His resignation came as a surprise
to the general public. Business men
generally protested the action, and
have endeavored to have him recon
sider, If possible.
Mayor Wilson also said that before
he retired he would like to see steps
taken for a revision of the city char
ter to the end that certain antiquat
ed features be removed. He said he
said he would endeavor to have pre
liminary moves made between now
and July 1.

of Portland from breaking away from
