A Little Crystal Gazing CTOCKS went up yesterday from one to six dollars a share. According to press dispatches from New York, the cause was the Federal Reserve Board's action in lowering margin requirements from 55 to 40,'and imposing a 50 requirement on the shorts. . .... This is probably true as far as it goes, but it doesn't go far enough. The mere change of 15 in margin requirements, would not in itself, change a bear into a bull market. No, something more important, must be the cause of this sudden change of front. i ", ' . ...... ... fF course this is only a GUESS, but our own explanation is that since the first crash of the bull market, a great deal has been going on between Wall Street and Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington, D. C, which hasn't met the eye, as far as the reader of newspaper headlines is concerned. The administration officially has .taken up cognizance of the stock market debacle; but behind the scenes, we venture to say President Roosevelt and his advisers have been in many a huddle, regarding what to do, and what NOT to do, about it. To officially recognize a crisig existed, would have been to pull a terrible boner from the administration's viewpoint. For such action would have further alarmed the people, and com pletely shattered, rather than revived, what public confidence existed. .... CO such action was out from the very start. Instead of betraying the alarm it really felt, the administration as sumed an air of complete indifference, went on its way as though nothing had happened of particular moment. But meanwhile, bent all its energies day and night toward prevent ing what it knew was a serious situation, developing into a critical and perhaps disastrous one. The change in margin requirements was undoubtedly one of the moves decided upon, but unless our hunch is extremely sour, many other things were decided upon, and the big boys on Wall Street as usual know it. They may not know the precise details of the program, but they know or think they know enough about it to be reason' bly assured that as far as business in this country is concerned including big business as a part of it the Roosevelt adminis tration has at last decided to take a turn to the LEFT.

Oct (API The Ift-eow herd owned by Preston Monson of Coos Bay led improvement SAsnoatlon tests In September (or the second month, R. w. Morse, exten sion dairyman at Oregon State col lege, said today. The winning herd averaged 47.3 pounds of butterfst per cow.

TTHIS doen't mean, any of the major reforms, or important principles of the New Deal, are to be abandoned. But it does mean if our guess is correct, that the end of the "for gotten man" era has been reached, and the beginning of what? might be termed "the forgotten BUSINESSman" era, has started. . . At any rate we would wager a new $5 hat against a last year's cigar stub that some such explanation, right or wrong accounts for the sudden revival in Wall Street, and not the action the Federal Reserve Board, decided to take. For if what the business world as a whole believes to be the hostile attitude of the Roosevelt administration, were ' to continue, unabated and unmodified, then nothing the Federal Reserve Board might or might not do, could save the stock market. (And the acrobatic cheering leaders, can say all they wish to say about the stock market NOT being important, the fact remains it represents what American industry is or isn't, worth, and if the bottom falls out of that, nothing can prevent the entire financial and industrial structure of the country going with it.) . a 10, what business in this country needs, or thinks it needs which amounts to the same thing, as far as immediate results are concerned, is NOT a change in the technical rules and regulations, of the Roosevelt administration but a change in its SPIRIT. If this upward bounce on Wall Street, is not merelv another flash in the pan, the answer is, that the big bovs who reallv determine such things, have come to the conclusion, that there has been such a change in spirit. No repudiation of the record as it stands. No discarding ct major reforms or fundamental purposes. But. a change of direction, above all a change of emphasis. TOR example: Let's say there is to be a genuine, whole-hearted effort to balance the federal budget. Guess No. 2: Instead of bringing this about by increased taxes, a sincere effort will be made to bring it about by in creased prosperity, Wat the country is really suffering from at present is a strike of capital. The administration (No. 3) is determined to bring about certain tax reforms, on one hand, and make certain friendly and conciliatory gestures on the other, which will end the strike of capital, encourage the people who have flooded the hanks of the country with their money, to put that monev to work. I Or to put it in another way: The administration won't forget! the "forgotten man," nor will it close its eyes to the selfish, anti-social aims of certain "economic royalists." But that j portion of the New Deal program has been pretty well attended to, and the time has come accentuated by the Wall Street J ..rash to look after the other part. This part has to do, not with the reform of the capitalistic : system from the LEFT, but legitinia'o assistance and support I for the capitalistic system from the RIGHT. For if the capi-; talistic system is to be preserved, not only must the forgotten', man be remembered, but the business man, big or little, must j be remembered also, and to remember him he must be given some assurance of a reasonshle profit. Oreat Britain, having carried out an exhaustive Investigation of the state of nutrition, ex pressed this con clusion : "... the low Intake of vita min D may be the moat im portant dietetic defect at present. While there la abundant proof thst everyone would be better off with a great er Intake of vita min D ... its need Is most evident during Infancy." That Is precisely what I have been trying to tell folks all along, that everyone would be better off wltn a greater Intake of vitamin D. The Medical Research Council nas officially given as the "average" dose of vitamin D, as a preventive or prophylactic for infants or chil dren, from 1000 to 3000 units a day. The curative dose Is 8000 to lo.oou units dally. Another thing the Brltlah Medi cal Research Council states Is the relatively greater need for vitamin D In Infancy and childhood. I have been trying to make that clear, too. Innumerable authorities In Oreat Britain and In the United btates have carefully studied the potency or effectiveness of vitamin D from varloua sources from fish liver oil, from Irradiated ergoaterol In oil (vi osterol), from Irradiated milk and other Irradiated foods (that la, roods that have been subjected to ultra violet rays of a wave length known to convert the ergoaterol In them Into vitamin Dl and from Irradiated yeaat (special strain of pasteurized and dehydrated yeast particularly rich In ergosti'rol content, irradiated with ultraviolet light). All agree that, unit for unit, It makea no difference what the aource of the vitamin u may be. Thla question having been scien tifically settled. It becomes a mat ter of aultablllty, palatabtltty, availa bility and economy which form ot vitamin D Is to be preferred In the given case. j One of the mid-town oases for news I paper snd magazine writer a Is Jack nieeck's pronounced Blake's Writ ers and Artists club In mid-town.

Many special preparations of cod liver oil or nail but or other fish liver oils are con centrated and contain considerably greater amounts of vitamin D than the Pharmacopoeia standard requires.

President Roosevelt's fundamental purpose j has been to preserve and perpetuate the capitalistic system, by adjusting it to the strains and stresses of s changed world. To accomplish this, it is as necessary to put CAPITAL to work, as LABOR, in fact one is entirelv dependent upon the other. To date labor haa received the major attention, because its needs were greater. But now capital is to have its innings and its legitimate rights are to be recognized, also. Terhaps we have been wandering about in a pleasant hare and indulging in nothing more important than some wishful thinking. But we started out by placing today's contribution in the realm of hypothesis, and that is where it remains.
