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.

COOS BAY DAIRY HERD
LEADS IN STATE TEST
CORVALLI8. Ore . 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.
The Tillamook county aaaorlatlon
with 64 tested herds had 1811 cows
producing en average of Sl.!3 pounda
of butterlat. A Clufrneey t-om the
Clatsop association v.on the .nritvld
ual honors with sa.2 pounds of tot.
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.

preparations of cod liver oil or nail

IN other words. 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.
It will take more than another bnnip or two on Wall Street
however to prove, that wa are wrong
